THE SELECTION OF CITY OFFICERS.

THE SELECTION OF CITY OFFICERS.
The bill prepared by the committee of the
Republican Association OF this city, and
passed by the House yesterday. provides
that all the officers whose appointments are
now authorized by the charter or by any law
OF the United States, OF act or ordinance OF the
city, or which may hereafter be authorized
thereby, shall be selected by ballot on the first
Monday in August In each year, in joint CEN
vention OF the Mayor, Board Of Aldermen, and
Board OF Common Council. The melting cause
TO this meas ure seems to have been the crea.
tion by the last Councils, just prior to the ad-
Journment, of the new office of inspector of
sewers, &c, and the appointment to fill it of
one obnoxious to the political majority at the
last election, by having been an opposition
candidate for the office of surveyor. The
Board of Aldermen have thus far not con.
Cured with the lower Board in a meas are abol.
ishing this Office; hence the inception OF this
bill, which makes a clean sweep of all the
otfices n the appointment of the Mayor. 1t
is held by some that the divided RESPONSE
biiity caused by this bill will work badly, and
result in much confusion. 1t has been said
that this is the first instance in which CITY
officers have been elected by Joint con ven
ton OF the two branches Of the Councils, but
We learn that in the neighboring city Of Bal
timore such practice has prevailed. BY act
OF the Assembly OF 10 aryland Of Noyem Der |.
fsu7, II was provided that all nominations
should be by joint nomination Of both Boards
OF Council. This was amended by act Of 1927,
CHAP. las, sec. e. "that the Mayor shall
nominate. and, by and with the advice and
consent OF convention of the two branches
shall appoint." all offices under the Corpora
tion except the register. sr
