The Illinois Pretrial Fairness Act that ended cash bail statewide is a mixed bag for prosecutors, particularly those in understaffed jurisdictions, according to one state’s attorney.

Overview of 1908 to 1919: Students had been receiving an informal education in Staunton since the 1880’s.

In the early part of the century, the event consisted of two portions: oratory and track.
