out union Of sentiment, in any place, -
city, village or family, IS thing quite
impossible. If we are contented aud
prosperous now, why not let that con-
tentment aud prosperity continue?
fany organization is deemed neces-
sary, why not take that of village? In
doing this we should secure just as good
police regulations as we can secure un-
der a city charter. Under it We can
have exclusive control OF our highway
taxes, and every thing else necessary
to improve our village, promote good
morals, provide against danger from fire,
and, in short, secure the highest and
best privileges that can be secured I'M
der city charter. 1t is not our pur-
pose TO urge the adoption of either,
but it may be we'll to discuss the merits
of both.
