ILLINOIS MANUFACTURES.

The disclosures before tho stato Board Of
Equalization rovcal the extraordinary fact that
the Revenue INV Of Illinois, in proposing to tax
property by valuation "so that ovory pcraon mud
corporation shall pay tax in proportion to the
value Of his, hor or its property" requires that
all property owned by corporations shall bo taxed
at 100 contH on tie dollar, while like property
owned by othor persons Is to bo valued at from
as 10 30 centa IN tho dollar, and to bo taxed &C.
cordingly.
Some corporations arc indeed chartered mo-
nopolios. But Of the corporations In Illinois,
n'ne~sentha. aud oven gtoater proportion OF
thono, l1ayo no monopoly. The grant number Of
tho corporations in this State aro manufacturing
associations, having no special privileges,
anu which tako TINT form Of doing
business for tho convenience of aopa-
rating and dividing individual ,ntorosts
Tho advantages OF corporations arc that tho
parties can carry on busineHs continuously with
out interruption by the death, OF failure, or re-
t'roment OF any of the partners; that personal
interests aro represented In tho oxact proportion
Of capital Invested, aud TINT holders Of thiH
capital may withdraw, sell out, aud convert thoie
interest without producing any change in tho
firm, or interrupting tho business. Those con~
veniencoa cannot bo found In nero personal
partneralipp. It is tho only form OF doing
many kinds OF business whore capital hold by
persons mt actively engagod in tho business
can DO adgantagoously invested and managed.
The 'franchiao," otherwise than as O b,ls,nosa

Of tho corporation loing represented by its
tangible property.
Now, how doos tho novenuo law Of Illinois

Tho letter printed In our Inst iusuo from OK
Mayor Modill to A1r. Coolbaugh, upon tho quos-
ton Of making Chicago lro-proof city, con-
saina. among others, ono worry important point,
namely, tho protection Of roofs. IA tho roof
is tho weakest point OF construction In our
buildings, and the point most exposed to nro
Mr. Modlll's recommendations aro already be-
ownors. Wooden roofs aro tho rule and wooden
oornicos univorsal. Tar.covering hna boon
proved worthless. It is not only no protoo-
tion In caso OF d largo fire, but it almost
invariably oxposos building to Leakage. very
small hole in a tin roof may damage building
find 1t. Tho tar and gravel covering ia no batter,
for water will svontunlly force its way through,
and in caHo Of t1ro 1t only contributes tho best
kind of fuel to tho fames With what, thon, shall
wc covor our roofs ? nEr. Modll1 makes two aug-
gestions, which ho 1las derived from his obsorya-
uons: First. that all buildings hereafter con-
atructed and thoso already built md covered with
tar and felt roofs must havo sprcad over tho Bane
an ample coating OF arst-class cement; or (soc-
ond), bo replaced With roofs covered with tile,
slato. Or motal Tho second recommendation 1s
hardly practical. Tho great majority Of our
roofs arc fiat md not adapted to alato or to tho
corrugated tlle-work which ia 80 common in
Europe, and another objection to ti1e-coyoriug
would probably ba found in tho expopse Of tiles
in this country. Tho cement-coatng acoms to bo
tho most feasible but where shall no get
