at tho request OF the Citizens Associa-
tion, Mr. EDWARD 3. 1sHAM, of the Chicago
Dar, las prepared an opinion on blr. Coll
v1N'a proposterons claim tllat ho Is entitled to
hold the Office Of Mayor till April, 1877, or
eighteen months beyond tie term for which
he WIS originally elected. We print this
opinion in anothcr part Of this mornings
Tn1DusE. and commend it to tho approval OF
all citizena who aro opposed to an individual
effort to defoat tho expression Of popular
will. 11r. 1suAu makes two or three good
points in addition 10 those which have
already been made by TIE TntnuNE, md, by
adopting somewhat different line Of argu-
1neut, he has presented tie points we have
made IN new light.
We havo ns n basis for examining 1lr. COL
v1S'a protonsions the old charter IN its
present relations to the new, tho language Of
the General act Of 1879 under which the city
is now incorporated, and the constitutional
prohibition Of the extension OF offloial tor1ns.
With these before him, Mr. r. LYLE D1cxEr,
! in his capacity as Corporation Counsel but
/ now candidate for tho Supreme Court
which will bo called on to pass upon this
question, Inns como to the remarkable con.
clusion TINT Mr. GOWN may DO continued in
office in spite of tho constitutional prohibi-
linn. His points arc ~ The old charter
provides TINT tho city officers shall continue
in office until thoir SUCCESSORS shall be elect
ed 4; (2) tie General law continues the old
officers in Office until their SUCCESSORS shaii DO
olocted and o. as tho constitutional pro-
vision rends. !" No Inv shall be pissed which
shall operate to extol,d the term OF my OIL
Ger after his election" and ns tho law of 1872
WAS passed 61foyd Mr.. GOWN was elected,
therefore it does not include 1lis case
b1r. IsIsAMs opinion las been writton, at
tho request Of the Citizens Association, with
particular reference to h1r. DsckEY's opinion,
md Ills points, though not in the exact order
he nakos them, 1uay be more briefly stated as
follows:
/. Though so rsuch Of the old clartor Is
preserved aa Ia not inconsistent with tho new
law. the city is now organized under the Con.
eral Incorporation act, and In all essential
matters, auch as olflc!al tarns, tho General
act is solo authority, The provision OF the
old charter relative to city officials holding
their plRcea until their successors shall be
qualified IL Of no effect, mud tho only q,tes.
tion is, whether there is q vacancy under the
present charter, by virtue Of which tho May
or under tho old charter morely exercises
the powers conferred upon "liko officer
until his successor shall ba elactod.

is not the ltl&sagu but tie operation Of the Law

1t ia sometimes difficult to decide which

There came one day to a little in
land town in Kentucky young ru-
raj couple who had just been bound
-by the "silken bonds" Their dcsti-
nation was the depot. and the bride
groom was evidently quite impatient
for fear the train should arrive before
he could reach the Office. Buying
one ticket, they stood on the plat
form until the train had. stopped
When they entered the car the bride
groom found his bride 4 seat, kissed
her most afectionate1y, badc her
goodbye and going out, seated
himself on 4 box and commenced
whiting most vigorously. He saw
the'train 90 out of sight, regret de-
picted on his face, when 4 bystandcr,
thinking the whole proceeding rath-
or strange, resolved tointerview him.
approaching him carelessly, and
chewing 2 straw to keep Up his cour-
age, he said:
