He came from the people and rose to high estate and esteem by mere force of character and indomâ€" itable will. He was ‘more selfâ€"eduâ€" cated than learned. He held no deâ€" gree from a great university; he toâ€"work, but unable to find employâ€" ment, the hours of labor are too no oceans; he amassed no colossal fortune. Yet he did, at & time when it required a degree of courage rare in history, stand firm for his conâ€" victions. (Class meant little to him beyond a division set aside for selfâ€" centered ends.

Comparing it with that paid by some other states, Illinoisans appear to be comparatively well off. Delaâ€" ware, for example, pays the highest per capita taxâ€"$217.39. But the reason for that lies in the fact that so many large corporations pay taxes in Delaware, in which they are incorporated.
