An examination of tho sub-struoture Of the

pointed by the Government to examine tho
foundations of the Chicago Custom-

submerged portion Of tho crib by two
professional divers revealed the gratifying
fact that The action Of tho waves aud leo

everything is In perfect condition, with no

Mr.. SM1TH, the Representative from tho
Second District In tile Legislature, has cooked
up scheme intended to defcat tho County
Commissioner bill. He proposes that the
bill abolishing the present Board md provid-
ing for an annual election shall b submitted
to vote Of tho people at d special election
10 be held In june ne1t, at which time they
shall also vote upon tho question whether the
Commissioners shal1 bo elected on tho NIL
nority plan or not. Mr. sM1ru says this bill
viii bo satisfactory to the Democracy. Wo
do not understand that there is any differ
ence Of opinion in this county bstweon DEM
ocrats and Republicans on this question.
The question is ono Of public robbery; on
tho one side is every honest Democrat and
Republican. and on the other tho Commits
sioners and tho dishonest plundarors. Tho
latter have at their command the whole
army Of thieves aud ballot-box stuff
ers, and can carry any special election
which may DO held In this county. Arr.
SMrTu knows this, for ho has seen 1t done
repeatedly. The Democratic property hold
ora of this city are robbed just ns are the TO-
publicans, and every man who pays a dollar
Of taxes prays the Legislature to pass tho hill

and which will onablo the people to protect
themselves. To submit such bill to popu-
lar vote, and To havo tbs form Of m election.
with tho 15o precincts, judges, md clerks, is
m absurdity which fow would have expected
Of Mr.. SMITH, unless his purpose is to pro-
tect tho official thioScs. Lot us have 3lr.

There are two little bills before the Illinois
Logislatura concerning tho disposition Of
vagabonds which should be passed before
there is any Talk Of adjournment. One, in
troducetl by Messrs. CaookEa and EAs7oy, is
for tle benefit Of the cities mainly, and hns
advanced as far rs the third reading In tie
House. Tho other applies the terms Of this
bill to the tramps that are infcsting the rural
districts. Both arc Of tho greatest impor-
tance to tho peace md welfare Of the State.

to be thieves, burglars, or pickpockets,
either by thoir own confession or otherwise,
or by having bceu convicted Of any crimo
punishable By imprisonment in the State
Prison or House Of Correction. The bill
provides TINT when auch persons aro
found without lawfnl means Of sup

may bo prosecuted summarily, arrested, and
brought before tho nearest Justice OF the
Peace or Police Justice, and tried within
thirty-six hours after the arrest. II found

to imprisonment. It is also required that
tho Justice shall make full record Of each
OF those cases, and 1nittimua which shall
