ATTEMPT TO WIFE OUT THE HSoR1TY.
4 vi}lainous attempt was made in the House
to-day to wipe out the minority, which in one
or two occaslons has shown itsclfa match for
the minority in Parliamentary strategy: Tie
change fhe courts Of Cook county for the ben
eft, not Of the public, but Of Il few aspiring
| pnrtisans, and again in the case Of Burr's
bill to take from the Governor the control Of
the State military affairs, took advantage Of
| the good old rule that three-fourths Of. the
members voting are necessary to suspend the
| rules. The majority submitted to the rule in
the former instance, as tile bill Was purely
local one, and though bad as 1t could be, it
thnt attended tie effort Of tie minority r,
table Burr's infam ous bill fairly rot thc lot a
boiliuc. The leaders broueht lD the mattcr
| in caucus last njclt. and II yas there letcr-
mined to repeal the threc-fourths rule.
