Every parliamentary trick in the book will be tried before the end of tHe present session of the Illinois General Assembly on June 30. Two major maneuvers have been staged by the Democratic minority in tT.".e Senate so far. The first coup occurred when the committee hearings on the governors bills to enlarge the powers of the attorney general threatened to wreck the Democrats' plans for victory in the Chicago mayoralty election. On that occasion the' Senate's minoraty leader, Sen. William J. Lynch, (also Mayor Daley's law partner) u.pset the Republican strategy' by making a motion that the bills "Do Pass." That en'^ed 'ti"~e committee hearing, and the bills were on their way. But the expose with all of its political dynamite was effectively quashed. Next came the filibuster. Of course, in the national Cohgress a filibuster means nothing more than a long-winded speech which prevents or delays action on legislation to which the filibustering member is opposed. In the Illinois General Assembly a filibuster generally means something more disturbing than mere "speechifying." It also means reading the bills "at large," or, in full. A single member can bring about just suoh a revoltin' development, as Senator Lynch again demonstrated just recently. On that occasion, a proposed Republican plan for redistricting the Senatorial idiistricts of the city of Chicago was about to be introduced in the Senate. The session opened in the usual way. The lieutenant governor called for the reading of the journal, and immediately recognized Sen. Robert Lyons (ROakla! nd) who made his usual motion that the reading of the journal be dispensed witt'i. Sen. Lynch "objecteidi," and tihe secretary ' bfegan the long, tedious reading of the journal. A majority vote could have ended this, but if the secretary thereafter had attempted to read the first bill "by title" (th^ usual practice), a single objection could Meflesry - County Tkrsngii TSia Years by Marie Schaettgen have required the reading of the j -were Nixon, A. C. Smith, Star Titus and Richardson. A. C. Thompson was the first justice of t) e peace. Other names appearing among the early officers are McLean, Overacre, Rockwood, Abijah Smith and Walker. In 1864 the officers were • Bishop, Mayes, John Huemann, George Rothermel, Castor Adams, Harsh, Colby, Holmes, Perry and Homer Wattles. The first town in the township was McHenry. It was laid out by a Chicago surveyor, named Bradley, in 1837. Through the efforts of Henry McLean, his "services were obtained. McLean built the first house, a log building, near ti'.:e site of what was known in 1885 as the Riverside House. The building was used for religious services and for public entertainment. The first hotel was built by R. B. Brown in 1837. Horace Chapter 4S j Long built the Mansion House.

The Illinois Constitution in Art. IV, Section 11, explicitly requires that all bills shall bp read "at large"- (in full) on t/iree separate legislative days. This constitutional requirement can be waived, only by unanimous consent (the usual order). A single objector can require the reading of all bills in full. To act in violation of such an objection would render all legislation enacted "unconstitutional." That is what is meant by a "filibuster" in the Illinois General Assembly. We have seen it operate once this sessioh. This writer predicts that it will oper-r ate many more times before the legislature adjourns on June 30. CRASH TOTAL Motor vehicle crashes on Illinois highways killed 154 persons during April, 1 per cent fewer than the 156 deaths that occurred in April, 1954, according to a report by Edwin A. Rosenstone, director of Public Wonks and Buildings. His report shows 615 highway deaths for the first four montihs of this year, up 4 per cent from the 589 figure for the corresponding period last year. About 1851 Mr. Baldwin built a fine frame hotel, the Fremont House. The Riverside House was built in 1864 by John W. an^ David Smith. McHenry had a ford across tfoe Fox river built by Indians of square cut sandstones. The pioneers later 'dtug these stones from the river bed and used them as hearthstones. The mystery of these stones was never solve How could the Indians produc stones which had obviously been mechanically quarried ? The pioneers soon established a ferry to replace the unsafjB ford. This was used until 1842, wf' en a bridge was built. It was washed away in 1849 and' another bridge replaced it. Several bridges were built and destroyed, or improved upon, before the present modern concrete bridge was built. Remember Father on Father's Day, June 19.
