still left to select decent, respectable and edu-

Of the different wards do something towards
reform in this particular for the sake of their

would suggest to the District Attorney the pro-

us know how many Of those individuals who
may be candidates for School Commissioners
have been indicted for any offences, SO that
they, at least, may be excluded from the list Of
candidates, IL We can do no better.

MUNICIPAL REFoRM ONCE MoRE.-For years
past great has been the cry Of municipal re-
form; the virtuous citizen, the disappointed
politician, and the alarmed taxpayer, have
each been seized at intervals with a spasmodic
affection towards it, preceding the municipal
elections, and now it seems the cry is up again.
for Mayor, each Of whom, no doubt, intends, if
elected, to reform the city government; but,
as it happens not one of them can do it. And
besides, we have two or three hundred candi-
dates for all the other corporate offices-men
too Of the very worst class in the community.
The prospects then for municipal reform, at
the present time, it may be seen, are brilliant
indeed
