The honorable Board of Supervisors of McHenry county met in annual session at the court house in Woodstock, on Tuesday, September 10,1881). Meeting called to order by the chair­ man, Sup. R. J. Beck. The following members answered to their names at roll call : Sups. Amory Barber, A. J. Shurtliff, L. Woodardj R. J Beck, E. M. Titcomb, W. H. Groesbeck, 1). H. Flavin, G. li. Richards, F. E. Stevens, John Weltzien, Luinan T. Hoy, Samuel E. Clark, G. W. Conn, A. R. Alex­ ander, Fred Hatch, F. K. Granger, John H. Gracy, W. P. Thompson. Sundry bills were referred to the com­ mittee on claims. The report of the receipts and expendi­ tures of Lester Barber, county superin- / 1-- tST Wisconsin has the honor of having Hie first lady lawyer who ever appeared before a supreme tribunal, legally, in the k;,„ United States. We hope to live to eee .̂ the day when lady lawyers will occupy as ; prominent a place at the bar as the me® [ do. If a woman should not be a lawyer ftjgfZ'i it is not because she is hot a proper per- son to appear in court, nor because she *' cannot talk. As to her pleading, we will 5#^"' put one pair of brown eyes against any iS ten bald headed gentlemen who ever 7" ̂ arose and said. "May it please the court. ;%•{Bat, seriously, we want to see them in >** our court rooms as lawyers with the hope IJfy that thereby said court rooms may be ̂; rendered decent places for respectable people to appear. We do not refer to all W': , court rooms, butto many.--Lake Geneva hf- : :• News. (0TIllioois is certainly getting away up in the breeding of horse flesh when she can take away honors from French in breeding French horses. The following is from Saturday's Herald: Advices by cable to L C. Lewis, secretary of the American horse show, from Thomas Sloan, agent for W. L. Ellwood, of the great horse farm at DeKalb, 111., stating that he has secured the following prizes at the Paris Exposition: On French coach horses: First prize on four-year- olds, second prize on four-year-olds, and second priie on three-year-olds. On Fercherons; First prize on three-year- olds, third prize on two-year-olds; also first prize on two and three-year-old m&reg. Those horses are now enroute to the great Chicago horse show, which opens in the Exposition building Oct. 30. These horses were all bred at DeKalb farm, and were sent from there to Paris. s;rg (&* James B. Perry, Esq., of this vil­ lage, having announced himself as a candidate for County Treasurer the com­ ing year is meeting with flattering en­ couragement throughout tW . The Sallowing is what the two Harvard papers have to say in relation thereto: James B. Perry of McHenry waa in Harvard Monday calling upon some of his friends in this village and vicinity. It will be remembered that Mr. Perry was prominant before the Republi­ can convention fast year as a caudidate for the Legislature from this legislative district. The choice of the convention waa, however, given in favor of Col. G. S. Southworth of Woodstock. Then came the pressure upon Mr. Perry--which was exceedingly urgent--to take the field as < 4-U ~ T «wr vuiuuiuaitc 21/1 LI1C LiT^lOia" ' tare. It was in that crisis that his sterl­ ing qualities of manhood--his fidelity to Republican principles--rose superior to political aspiration. He resolutely de­ clined to take a position, or make a move, that might give the Democratic minority a chance to elect two Represen­ tatives from this district. There were many good Republicans who honestly contended that if Perry would consent to run that we could elect the whole three Republican candidates. The specious figuring which they presented made it ap­ pear that way. But Perry was true to his faith, and firmly said--"no." In view of his manly decision then, the Re­ publicans of McHenry County propose next year to run Mr. Perry as our caudi­ date for County Treasurer. He has all the qualifications for that office, and he de­ serves it. Let these facts be borne in mind, preparatory for action next year. --Harvard Independent. James B. Perry, of McHenry, was here Monday interviewing prominent Republi­ can leaders in regard to his chances for the office of county treasurer. Mr. Perry was a candidate for the legislature two years ago, but was defeated in the con­ vention by Hon. G. S. South worth. The gentlemanly and straightforward man­ ner in which Mr. Perry conducted himself before and after the convention won for him friends in all parts of this county He is an excellent gentleman and would make an ideal county treasurer--a worthy successor to the present incum­ bent, Capt. Wm. H. Stewart--Harvard Herald. tendent of schools, was referred to the committee on education; also his quar­ terly report.
