purposes, and it was only last week that an
inc uest was held on the body of young
lady who. owing to nail piercing the sole
of her boot. received such an injury to the

Willie Tue Tribune han ns much conf

It has regretted that q movement for It's sub
initial to tho people WIS started at tho pres
Ont time, whom tho purpose wAs merely to
shorten tho official term OF tho present Com-
mon Council, and add to tho complications
and ombarrassmonts Of the City Govern
,nent. It is q qualification, therefore. that
there Is such evidence Of fraudulent sigma
t,res to the petition Oh will relieve tho Coun-
ell from tho necessity Of submitting the
question at the present. Wo sl.all hope,
nevertheless, that, when the city affairs shall
bo somewhat Strengthened out, and before
another hummer Council can bo inflicted
upon Chicago under tho charter Of 1872,
tho charter OF 1876 may be submitted and
adopted, with It's manifold checks upon ofl-
cial bummerism and corruption.
