Excerpt from Arnold's Manual of School Laws of Illinois Election - Section 1. Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, represented in the General Assembly. - That at the election held on Tuesday after the first Monday of November, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and ninety, and quadrennially thereafter, there shall he elected by the legal voters of this State, a State Superintendent of Public Instruction, who shall hold his office for four years from the second Monday in January next after his election, and until his successor is duly elected and qualified. Bond - Sec. 2. - Before, entering upon his duties, he shall take and subscribe the oath of office prescribed by the Constitution, and shall also execute a bond, in the penalty of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000), payable to the People of the State of Illinois, with securities to be approved by the Governor, conditioned for the prompt discharge of his duties as Superintendent of Public Instruction, and for the faithful application and disposition; according to law, of all school moneys that may come into his hands by virtue of his office. Said bond and oath shall be deposited with the Secretary of State, and an action may be maintained thereon by the State at any time for a breach of the conditions thereof. Salary - Sec. 3. And the State Superintendent shall receive, annually, such sum as may be provided by law, as a salary for the services required under the provisions of this act, or any other law that may be passed, and also all necessary contingent expenses for books, postage and stationery pertaining to his office, to be audited and paid by the State as the salaries and contingent expenses of other officers are paid. The salary of the Superintendent, at present, as fixed by statute is $3,500 a year. The expense of the office, such as clerk hire, printing, postage, etc., is provided for by the legislature at each regular session.
