NIuniclI1nI Policy.

The following, which is the conclusion of very
able article that appeared the Commercial Bulletin
OF Saturday morning last we commend to the atten-
tive consideration Of our readers. The Bulletin not
being party paper cannot be charged with political
prejudice or partiality:
The present is an interesting and important period cys
changes e IL the sr ve ef many
the wdom and expedency of these changes seemed probe
suited probably for the public and now al the
in a tide may y @ a h e y
sned hs s ny Ss they please but with truth
rs financial affairs have been managed With sI PRUDENCE
economy and fidelity We mean of course the management BY
tive officers the Council be held any responsible
present city government be ndhered shall il be Changed
suing years. city affairs far as We can see
didaes will voted for ~ party MEM and er
nets and l. eaPabes for office will be Judged
Irna they s to be But the
eipRi government shall be endorsed rcpudiated.
we nave argued, at some LENGTH the substance of
the foregoing, in another article We are very glad to
have the approval and endorsement of the poicv of
the American Common Council of such staunch
and reliable commercial journal as the Bulletin.
Merchants and taxpayers cannot resist such argu-
ments no matter how loud and incessant the appeas
Of partisans. ''..
The Bulletin truly says the Question after all is,
whether the present policy of the municipal gov
ernment shall be endorsed Or repudated.n
The pursuit of that policy has adyantaged the city
in many important particulars; has reduced taxation
has rendered unproductiveness productive; and has
opened up prospect for still further ameliorations
Shall that policy be endorsed or reputliated?"
Let the taxpayers answer. They are deeply in
tarested!
New Orleans daily crescent. [volume] ([New Orleans, La.]) 1851-1866, 1856-06-02
THE Election To-day.

We have no partisan appeals to make to those
| Of our political faith. The issues depending on
the determination of .odays election involve matters
which rise above and go beyond ordinary political
| considerations. What we have to say is addressed
to all classes of our citizens without regard to na
tionalty creed or politics We speak to their patr
otism Voters--their good sense as members of a
great communicated their interests as taxpayers
The results of the policy inaugurafed by the Amer
can party are alluded to in another place. Shall that
policy be thrown overheard, or shall it be endorsed
Or in other words will the voters rebuke those who
have reduced their taxes, and encourage those who
have never done anything but increase their taxes
If the taxpayers are in favor of the former PROPOSE
ton let them vote the Democratic ticket and if thew
are in favor of the latter proposition let them also
vote the Democratic ticket.
The case Isl clear one. The American party is the
only party that has ever reduced taxation in New
Orleans and is the only party if we are to Judge Of
the future by the past, willing and capable of carry
ing out the reforms so auspieiously commenced. If
parties, like individuals, are to be judged and esti
mated by their acts there should be no serious oppo
stion either to the ticket or the policy we advocate
The merchants too, for the first time in the history
Of New Orleans, have merchant-a good mer
1ht aAepludCHHble ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
ed them as candidate for their suffrages for the
Office of Mayor For years and years the merchants
have complained because their interests were not
sufficiently consulted in the administration of our
municipal affairs. They have no reason to com
plain now. One Of them leads the American ticket
Will they turn their backs upon their own class?
We shall see
The other names on the ticket are equally unex-
ceptionabe. All interests and avocations are duly
and fairly represented. The property interest is re-
presented So is the mercantile interest. So is the
mechanical interest So is the financial interest," So
is the marine interest And all of the representatives
are worthy the positions they occupy.
Here are the men, and here is the policy. Let our
people make their choice. Let them vote early, and
vote wisely; and then, all will be well. Let them
eschew politics for the nonce. The welfare Of the
city Of their residence requires it. and the calls of duty
in the premises are peremptory and decided.
