ASSESSOR RESIGNS.

W. Ward, who recently traded his farm in Jordan tp., for a brick and tile factory at Rantoul, 111., and expects to move there in a few days, filed his resignation as township assessor, last Saturday. A petition containing about 100 names of both democrats and republicans was filed with the auditor requesting him to appoint Frank Welsh in Mr. Ward’s place, but no action had been taken in the matter of appointment up to the hour of our going to press. SThe regular annual meeting of tne assessors will be held next Friday, and we understand the appointment will be made in time for the appointee to meet with them.
