If the offices arc to be filled on this Issue of nationality, both Germans and Aunericans are In favor of flliug them In pro- portion to the number of taxpayers which each race contributes, not in proporilon to its herd of voting cattle, or to Its array of paupers. 1f, on this basls, the Irish show ‘that thcy have as large a number of taxpaycrs as tho Americans, let them have a8 many oflices, But tho trouble is that they want to overatep that Hmit, They want to count {n mot merely thelr taxpayers, but the motley hordes who come trooping up from the Poor-flouse, from obscure saloons, and remote hlding-places when election-time comes o Thgy want to claim representation for tho gang and rabble, who carried the last spring electfon. But mefther the Germans nor the Amerleans arc Inclined to belleve that the indi- viduals who stuffed the ballot-baxes on account of thelr love for Glecson, Phillips, and Evars are entitied to representation of any kind. Tho serfous feature about the article o the Watern Catholic is, that it s a BOLD DECLARATION of what has Jong bogn o g’rlnlc article of Irlsh faith: that ls, that they have a majority in Chi- eago, and are lorda paramount of tho city. Hitherto they have socretly worked tosccure everything; now they throw off the inask which they consiuer uselese, and arc prociaiming thelr intentions on the housetops. And when ong considers the political situation of thls city and county, there ara actually many things which justify’ them in this bellef. Look over the long “list of officers, from the head of tho county ticket down to the faot, and you will flad it fall, dl.pmparuannu.-lly full, of Irish names. Take the Council which was swopt ont of existence by the reform move- ment of last spring. Out ‘of its forty members sixteen or seventeen were Irish, “Tho then Mayor, Mr. Colvin, was an American by birth, but an ‘Irishman by ‘udoption. Ho was3 an fn- strument fo the liands of tho men who sur- rounded hint, and no Irishian born ou tho banks of the Liffey or the Buyno could have been more to the taste of the Irishmen who then ruled the city. The popular uprisiog of laat year, coupled with the clectlon of an en~ tirely now Council, swept that set out, of oxistence. The ?::oumy Board lowever, changes its members more slowly, a third belpg elected cechs year,© Look for o mo- ment at that most fuflucntial and most uncon- trollable body in Illinofs. Scvenof its fifteen members are Irish, and those scven control the Board, Theso County Commissioncrships in themselves arc of littte value, for tho pay fs purely nominal; but, ontha other hand, the atronngzoe controlled is overwhelming. ' This rish element in the County Board inakes appro- priations of over §1,000,000'a year, It controlsthe Pul:lln charitics of tho vounty—its Insane Asy- um, its Hospital, snd its PPoor-House, It puis up public bmldings, and it employs Irlsh archi- tects, [rish contractors, and Irish laborees to do clection of ten Commiissioners for the City of Chicago—five to be resident of the Town of West Chicago, threo of the South Town, and two of the North Town, aud five of towps out- side the city. The bill prohibits the rofercuce of any maticr Lefore the Board to o committee with “power to act,” whiere an expenditure of aver 8500 is to be made, - The bill provides for the election of a new Board at the April elec- tion, DELINQUENT TAXES, Matthews Introduced a bill to-day g0 _smend- Ing the Revenue laws that all taxes shiall be due an Jan. 1 of each year, and shall become delin- quent on the 1st of Febrnaryaf each year, and after that timo shall draw Interest at the rate of 2 per cent per month until paid. It the taxes are not paid in January, interest will bo added from February. The DHI also provides that fractlous of nionths shall he counted ns whale months apaicst the taxpayer. This will har- monize our Jaws on the sul .{uct of dellnquent taxcs with most of the other Statesof the Unlen, and will put the prompt and delinquent. taxpayer on an cquitable footing, and will'be & strong inducement to prompt payment. TRE STATE-1IOUSE. Jack Introduced a resolution directing an In- vestigation of the purchase by the State-Houso Cominissioners of tho furniture, varpeting, ete., for the new State-Housc, cspectally as to wheth- er, s required by law, proposals had been ad- vertised for aud the contract or contracts let to the lowest bidder. The fact is generally un- derstood to be that In these fumiture purchases, s in pretty much the entire oxpenditure of the £3,500,000 Tor the construction of thu new State- ifouse, the Cominissioners wholly disreparded the law requiring them to let all work fur that bullding to the lowest bidder. umnfier moved a referenca to the Committee on Public Bulldinge. Herrington objected to a reference _of the resolution that would have it burled. The fair practice was Lo Intrust investizations to commit- teea headed by the movers of tho inquiry. Al that the motion for reference meant was o take the Investization out of the hands of the mover. If that course were addpted there would be lit- tle Investigntion of anytiing. Afterdiscussion. Ly a voto of 67 to 57 the resolution was relerred to the Committee on Publie Bulldings, which is tantamount to Its burlal. The vote csunot, however, bo taken 08 an indication of the tem- per of the House as to the Investization of the State-House matters. There ls, however, objec- tlon to piccemeal {nvestigations. - Subeeoucotly Smitl, of Sungamon, intro- duced a resolution Instructing the Committen on Public Bulldings to luvestigate the furniture purchase. The resolution was adopred.
