that is placing tin cup at the well in the
Court House yard. Hundred of tired,
thirsty men pass through there every week,
on their way to and from work and if there

they can get something to drink out of.

How Women are Treated by Republican Con-
ventions.

NeAthVNss
In the Philadelphia platform, on which
Grant was last nominated, the Republican
party pledged itself to respectful con-
sideration' of the claims Of women to wi
der fields of usefulness" And at the late
State convention Of the Republican party
of Illinois the women of the State were
discourteously treated and plainly insulted

wished to present their views upon tenn
perance were jeered and hooted at and COM

hearing
In another case a palpable insult was
offered to every female teacher in the land,
by the manner in which they treated Miss
Frances +. Willard, the able and distin-
guished Dean of the Northwestern Universe
ty at Evanston, Cook county. Miss Willard
was proposed for state superintenden of
public instruction by the Cook county dele
CATION, and on the first ballot she received
l24 votes-more than any other of the
eight candidates Her name was hurried
" withdrawn-no doubt from a fear that
she would be nominated, 1t was all very
well the pretend to favor to nomination
of a woman, but when there was proba
bility of her success see was hurried out OF
the convention. The office is wanted for n
politician who can help the party. That is
the way Republicans redeem their pledges of
respectful consideration" for the admission
of women to wider fields Of usefulness. -
Miss Willard, so far as intellectual attain
ments go, would honor any Office in the
State, and her friends brought her name
forward, after gaining reluctant consent,
for superintendent of schools, for which
she possesses peculiarly high quah6ca-
tions, and to which, under the constitu'
ton, women are eligible Her extensive
experience as a practical teacher was the
sole reason why those who favor the NOM
nation of a woman for this Office urged
her claims, they were treated with
rude incivility and insult 1t Is intimated
that her friends will urge her claims be-
fore the people as an independent candi.

STAIR B0AaD OF EQUALIZATION sus.
TANNED.
Corporations Must Pay as Assessed,


We have seen telegram from the clerk
of the Supreme Court Of this State TO
Morris Rosen6eld, dated at Springfield. to-
day, and saying that the court has sustain
ed the State Board of Equalization in the
matter OF corporations resisting payment
Of taxes as assessed. This means that
they must pay their taxes Some of the
resisting corporations will be more careful
in making their returns this year. To
count their stock as an Indebtedness and
then have Indebtedness added to the sum
on which taxes should be paid is what they
didn't expect. 1t will cost them something
to learn how to make their returns, but the
investment win be good one.
We suppose our Board Of Supervisors
will now take steps to have the injunctions
dissolved and then collect the taxes. II
will require some $45,O 900 to pay the taxes
of the resisting firms in this county.

Murder Trial in Henry County.

The trial of William Conett alias Rol-
Inns occurred i'll Cambridge, before Judge
Peasants, on the 10th inst. He plead
guilty, by the advice of his lawyer, as the
only chance of modifying his condition, if
in fact it could be done at all But in or
der that the court should be better able to
proclaim his sentence, witnesses, who were
present at the time of the murder, were
heard. Several of the witnesses testified
to his making threats several weeks pre-
vious to the murder, that just SO sure as
Mr.. Edwards, the Police Constable of New
Boston, tried to arrest him, he would kill
him; and he has kept his word. The Cam
He has served term Of years in the
penitentiary, and will undoubtedly serve
another term 6f'about SO years, should
the court be AZ lenient as that, which it is
hoped it will not be. 1t is the opinion of the
public generally that if he is sent to Joliet
for life, the gallows will be cheated of its
dues; and it is the opinion, that if he had
plead not guilty. and been tried before a
jury, he would without question be hung,
and he may be yet
And the Aledo Banner. in an article on
this case, says:
Rollins, the man who murdered Ed
wards, the Marshal, one year ago last New
Years night, plead guilty,on last Tuesday,
before Judge Peasants, ut Cambridge. He
said he would rather trust to the mercy
and clemency of the court than to risk his
life with jury. II will be rememb ered
that Rollins took change of venue from
this county to Henry. Judge Peasants is
placed in very responsible position. 1t
remains for him to say whether this man,
who has avowed the guilt, shall live or die.
Ii he live, we presume he will go to prison
for lite it he die, justice will be done. We
have no feelings of malice against this man,
but he killed one of our best citizens in
cold blood and when that citizen was dis
charging his duty as an officer. He had
no pruvocation. The killing was atrociuus
and brutal in the extreme and we believe
we speak the sentiments of the people
when we say that Rollins death should be
the penalty for his crime"
