Judge McAllis- tor holds that there has been & vacancy in the offica af Mayar of Chicago ever slnce the 3rd day of May, 1876. 1o holds that Mr.Colvin Is not Mayor; thatho meroly exerclued tho duties of Mayor, walting for Iin snceensor to ba olectod and quallfied. He holds, too, that his ucceseor has not been elocted or qual- ifled; and, by Emplication, that Mr. Colvin may hold over untll April, 1877, unless the Council cliooses to exarclso the discretion reposed In it by the law to call an election to flll the vacancy, Now, a8 u matter of pollcy, the Common Coancil should have no such dlscretion; and, as 8 matter of Inw, 1 think it has not. Conceding that the peo- ple could not Iawfully have elected a Mayor at the Instgenerat nlection, —althongh I do notbelieve that such is the law, —1 hiold that it ls not diecretionary with the Councll to leave the oflico vacant, or In the possesdon of & mcre locum tenens. The new Charter, Art. IL, Sec. 2, provides that, whenever o vacancy happens in the offlce of Mayor, and the unoxpired term shall be oue_year ur over from the timo when the yacancy occurred, **it uball be Glled by an election.” Thy nse of the word ** shall™ hero certainty indicaces duty, and not dlscretion. It makes the provision mandatory, not directory merely. _Thls In the unle form doctrine of the decisfons. Now, Judge Mc- Ablistor himaelt concedea that thero has been a va. cancy in the ofice of Mayor of more than n yoar. Tlow, then, can he eacape the conclusion that it stiould bo flfed by an election; and that It iy not o matter of dixcretion with the Councll whether §t whall be so filled or not? Perliaps he buses him- welf upon Art IV.
