In view of the approaching constitutional
convention. when oil matters Of general In
tercst to the State will undergo revision, it is
not likely that the next session Of the Legisla-
lure will be q very busy one and members
will have full opportunity to consider carefully
The condition OF our municipal government
and to devise such legislation as will protect
cal reform in this much abused city. Two
measures imperatively demanded for the
public welfare are the creation Of Board Of
Control, to supervise all the financial matters
OF the city, and Board OF Public Works, to
take charge Of the streets and public build
ings and to exercise general power over all
matters pertaining thereto, such rs rail-
roads, ferries gas works and public improve
mcnts. The commissions to be formed for
these important objects should be Of charsc-
ter to command confidence and respect, and
they should supplant the present departments
and bureaus, which have been prostituted by
politicians to the most corrupt purposes.
We have now a Mayor aud Street Com
missioner, either OF whom might very well be
supposed TO have some authority over the
streets and some power to protect
them from unlawful obstruction and in
jury. Yet railroad company has been
permitted to tear up Broadway on the
Sabbath and 10 lay down a double railway
track. without any authority, in the most
crowded portion OF that thoroughfare. With
Board Of Public Works in existence no such
outrage could have been committed. Millions
of the public money have already been given
away TO jobbers in street railroad and ferry
franchises. which, IL properly used, might have
lessened by nearly one-half the taxation Of
the city. This should be stopped at once, and
every franchise that is Of value should he dis
posed Of or held by the Board Of Public Works
for the benefit Of the taxpayers. All the city
railroads should be under the control Of that
Board instead Of being run to enrich ring Of
political spectators. The Board should pos
sess the power 10 make such public improve
ments as may be demanded by the necessities
and conducive TO the interests Of the city, such
as the extension OF the Fifth avenue thorough
fare to the Battery and similar great works
At present only such jobs are undertaken or
carried through as are profitable to the railroad

carefully and thoroughly considered, and It

it may become law at the earliest possible
