He organs of the present member of the State Board of Equalization seem to be in a bad strait, and especially the Woodstock Sentinel, who "hag expressed no preference toreitberof the candidates." Poor eoul. Did it ever express a prefer- ence for anything political until it found imt was iiie strongest side? In their dilemma they make the silly C&argp that the PLAINDEALER is in favor fit taxing railroad and corporations 100 cents on the dollar while other property is only taxed 20 to 30 cents on the dollar. Now the PLAIN-DEALER made no such statement, and these over zealous advo­ cates of Mr. Williams knew it when they n&de the charge. They would fain make their readers believe that property assess­ ed at its fair cash value was assessed at 100 cents on the dollar. We believe that all classes of property throughout the State should bear their equal proportion of taxes according to their value. Now it is a noted fact that the railroads and Other corporations, have from time to time, through one device and another, •voided paying their just proportion of taxes, sad it was to remedy this evil that the motion was made before the State finiu-d. m quoted in tite PLAINJJEALEK two weeks ago. And the records show that Mr. Williams' vote was against thin •«ry just proposition and in favor of the railroads. - j On September 1,1891, a resolution was ;Sfnt to the Attorney General waking him to "furnish to the Board, at his earliest _jQD!lEcnipf)m. iifl,i^rs ao ntn not it is the duty of the State Board of Equalization, under the statute, to assess all property at a fair cash value over which it has original jurisdiction, such as the property of railroads and the capital Stock of corporations," etc. In answer |» which the 'Attorney General says: _ In considering the matter involved in the forgoing questions, I have examined as carefully as my time would permit, all the decisions of the Supreme Court of this State relating to statutory provisions to which these questions refer, and the con­ clusions reached are based upon such investigation. " Section 1, Article IX of the Constitu­ tion «f this State, is as follows: "The General Assembly shall provide snch revenue as may be needful by levy­ ing a tax by valuation, so that every person and corporation shall pay a tax MI proportion to the value of his, her or its property--such value to be ascertain­ ed by some person or persons, to be elect­ ed or appointed in such manner as the General Assembly shall direct and not otherwise." It is manifest that the principle of pro­ portionate taxation is at the foundation of our revenue system, and the constitu­ tional intention with reference thereto could not be more plainly expressed than it io iu the foregoing provision. The General Assembly in the enactment of the Bevenue Law, attempted bo give force to this cardinal principle of the constitution. Section 3, paragraph 1 of the Bevenue IAWprovides: "All personal property, except as herein otherwise directed, ah all be valued at its fair cash value." tSection 4, paragraph 1 provides: "Each tract or lot of real property shall be valued at its fair cash value, estimated at the price it would bring at a fair vol­ untary sale." These commands of the law are so plain and specific that they need no inter­ pretation, and local assessors, by section 90 of the act, are required to make oath that they have so assessed the property. Paragraph 4, section 3 of the law, con­ tains practically the same command to the 8tate Board of Equalization as to tiie manner in which the capital stock of companies and associations organized tinder the laws of this State shall be valued by said Board. It is required, • "to ascertain and determine, respectively the fair cash value of such capital stock, including the franchise, over and above the assessed value of the tangible prop­ erty of said company or corporation." The commands of the law to the local aeeeeaprs and to the State Board of Equalization are equally specific. Will the feet that one, or any number of local assessors has failed to comply with the mandate of the law, to assess the prop­ erty In his township or county, at its fair cash value, release another local assessor from the performance of his duty, as re­ quired by law? Certainly not. The fail­ ure of one officer to discharge his duty has never been regarded as a valid excuse lor alike failure on the part of another officer. * • . • • • • In Pacific Hotel Co. vs. Lieb, 83 111., 602,the court says: "The State Board of Equalization, in a--owning the value of corporations, does not act as a board of review, as in respect to other kinds of property, but as an original assessor." Apparently then, the only duty of the boamt with regard to such property is to aOKMS it, and in order to properly do so it la authorized to adopt such rules and principles for ascertaining its fair cash value as to it may seem equitable and Now we ask our county CO temporaries who ha ve charged us with being in favor error. They must do be branded by the read- JMP *PB attempting to decwrs their raMfifttt in order to bolster up the cftinaW ftetir Tamterm candidate. - We bavsiM«iiertiraitiir space to fol­ low this subject; farther this week. We have not, as chargod.by the Sentinel, at­ tempted to set Mr. Williams in a wrong light before the public, but merely to show the Republican voters facts and figures to prove to them that Mr. Wil­ liams is made of clay like the rest of ue poor mortals, and is not the only man w McHenry county competent to uljjpc position of Member of the State BOP* Equalization, and that his knowH#e 01 the duties of the office does nq/8,8 was said by one of our coteuiporark1 " place him ahead of any other cand^tt^-" , » Tax payers, read the law^d the opin­ ion of the Attorney Genq/quoted above.

PICK'S CARfiiR ';V^'" V Honors ©•aila.^ly Won and Worthily Wryy^ Elfort's Reward. The pergffiM* history of Gov. Fifer has in the laanour years become somewhat fauiiliajpo the people dNlIinois. His ca­ reer pjfihaps as well illustrates the possi­ bility which a wait patient, heroic effort un/er free institutions as that of any gmer of the illustrious men who have wrought in the great Add of American progress and history. Others have been more gifted; but none have arisen from greater obscurity, through more severe trials, with more patient and heroic effort, than has Illinois good governor, Joseph Fifer. fion. S. H. West, once the Democratic representative from this county, did not overstate Mr. Fifer's claim to be called a hero when he said: I know nothing in the life of Lincoln or Garfield or any other man in history that exhibits such a gallant fight against adverse circumstan­ ces as that made by Joe Fifer since the war. When the war commenced Fifer was a poor boy--so poor, in fact, that he walked bare-footed to Bloomington to enlist. Though only a private his record in the army is as good as the best. The story of his dreadful wound is well known. A comrade of his told me years ago of his helping to carry Joe off the field of battle virtually dead, as all then believed. But aided by his unconquerable will power, he survived, and went back to the war and served several months after his term had expired. At the close of the war he came home penniless without edu­ cation or influential friends, and with no prospect in life except to hire out as a common laborer. His history from that day to this has been heroic. Environed by poverty and lack of education ho has worked himself up to a good education and a position at the bar that might well be envied by the most favorite man in the land. Mr. Fifer is the soul of honor, of chivalry, and of every generous and manly impulse that ennobles the human heart. His herofc qualities and patient suffering command the admiration of all, without regard to party." Brave, sweet words are these from a political opponent, but not brave, or sweeter than they are true. In every cne turf, the weight to be earned is always to Uwonted as affect­ ing the result; and what a great weight, what a deadly incumberance has not Mr. Fifer carried since that scorching July day in 1863 when, at Jackson, Miss., his comrades saw him fall before the deadly rebel fire! His wound was thus described by Dr. Rex, his regimental surgeon: *'On July 12,1863, at Jackson, Miss., he was wounded in battle, by a Minie ball passing through the inferior lobe of the right lung, and passing out through the superior portion of the liver. There was no mistake in the diagnosis of this case, as, when he was brought to the field hos­ pital, the air escaped from the wounded lung at every expiration, and the next day there was a billious discharge from the wounded liver. The prognosis was very unfavorable, and my own opinion, as well as that of severed surgeons who saw him, was that he would die." This obscure son of an obscure brick­ layer came thus from the war in 1864, pale, emaciated and penniless, his once rugged constitution broken and gone, with no schooling but such as he had picked up in a brick yard, or while grub­ bing out stumps upon a barren 40-acre farm, relieved occasionally in winter with two months' subjection to the master's ferule in a primative log school house; unknown to the great world; with no strong, influential friend to reach down and succor him. How easy to have sunk down and given up the fight; to have said: "The nation has taken my health and strength, let the nation henceforth support me!" And if he had in fact done this, instead of the heroic thing he did do he would never have become a shining mark for the contemptible malice of a Democratic pension commissioner, even though he had secured a pension really commensurate with his great sacrifice and loss. But this youth was not of the kind that would sink, unknelled and unknown into the ocean of obscurity, He felt he had a work to do; and, without posing as a martyr or hero, he set manfully about his great task, which was to obtain a collegiate education. With only a few dollars in his pocket, be began attend­ ance at the Illinois Wesleyan University. The story of his privations and hard­ ships is now a thrice told tale, how his resources of muscle and brain were taxed to the utmost to keep up the gallant fight; how he skimped and saved and well nigh starved unknown in a garret, rather than abandon the dream of his ambitious youth; and how at length he did succeed, despite all hindrances, tak­ ing with honor a full classical course, reading at length the Greek and Roman masters in the originals threading the wondrous plains of the natural sciences and passing in mathematics from the rule of three," where he began, to the complex mysteries oi the differential calculus. All this by a poor, wounded, friendless boy! Mr. Fifer struggled, suffered, hoped and succeeded. He is now the honored governer of this state; and "he hath borne his faculties so meek, hath been so ut&T LI hl® at office," that he has bought golden opinions from all sorts of people." Whether Mr. Fifer shall again head the ticket in Il'inois is lor the Republicans of the state to say. Other worthy gentle­ men aspire in the same honor, and their claims are now being heard. Let all be considered in fairness and with justice. We do not mention Mr. Fifer's touching and heroic career as being a fact decisive of his own claims, or the claims of others; but we do say, that the man who denies his sympathy, or withholds his interest from such gallant endeavors and such marked success or who would belittle and slur a heroic career thus worthily crown­ ed, writes himself down as one unfit to Mb to e. nf (liw<i*iminnHnir in l | ea, writes mmseit down as one unfit to viptori®8' The convention will act wise- W dtecnminating in the matter of taxa-1 wear the name of American citizen.*-- ly and well, if it places his name on the Hon to come fcfrward like men and ac- Bloomington Pantograph. ticket.--Springfield State Capital.

In any State outside of the South the new party would probably hwe taken a new name, but in that section it is dangerous to be­ long to a political party with any other name.

The independence of some newspapers is only displayed alter their editors have failed to make a "boodle" connection with either side of the question at issue, John/tail's pull on the Sultan is just as stronvas ever, as both France and Rus- w know. ie present Ohio gerrymander is a sin in Democratic eyes, but the last one-- oh, that was the work of a Democratic legislature, and consequently bound to be right. The Baltimore San, Cleveland organ, says the "divergence ol interest and feel­ ing in the Democratic party is just now and for some time past has been painfully conspicuous." We should say so. Democratic defeat next November is already so plain to observant members of that party that they are beginning tcf locate the blame in advance. visit of the Canadian reciprocity commissioners to Washington calls to mind the historical army that marched up the hill and then marched down again. The Democrats will not have so much to say about "Hill's snap convention" after it has concluded the work for which it was called. About next November the voters of this country will give the Democratic party a practical demonstration of the difference between economy and niggard­ liness. An enterprising newspaper has printed an article on "Congressmen who have been in prison." Now let some bullet proof editor supplement it with an arti­ cle on "Congressmen who ought to be in prison." Bob Burdette says the preacher who told his hearers that he wanted them when they went courting "to use their brains and have their wits about them, their judgment cool Mid their eyes wide open," was off. Bob is right, a nice lot of courting a fellow in that condition could do; Dark Lantern Davy" is what they call Senator Hill now. Oh no, Tammany has no idea of trying to control the next Democratic nomina­ tion. That's why it will send four or five thousand of its members to Chicago. sia W Gov. Fifer is all right. He did not say that our republican iortn of govern­ ment is a failure and that the nation is doomed. He made an able and sensible speech at Joliet, but unfortunately it was handled by some reporter who seems to have been paid to misrepresent him. Hi« entire speech,"it appears, was garbled in shameful manner, thus placing him in a very* embarrassing position. But Gov. Fifer will not suffer any loss of confidence on the part of the people. This attempt to injure him by putting in his mouth sentiments which he never uttered or en­ tertained will make him friends.--Bloom- iagton Leader. Will be One of Theni. In looking over our many exchanges we are pleased to setf the friendly and favorable mention of the Hon. Charles E. Fuller for one of the Congressmen-at- large on the Republican ticket. Mr. Ful­ ler is personally popular, and as a cam­ paign orator, he has but few, if any equals in the state. The party is certain­ ly under lasting obligations for valuable services rendered in the past and the manner in which he has upheld its princi­ ples and defended its interests. His nom­ ination would be an assurance that in the coming campaign we are to have life and activity, logic and eloquence to contribute to our success.
