Economy in Public Affairs.

After March meeting in which the
Republican party reversed the admin
istration of affairs in Burlington, the
Free Press had the following article.
which has more than local applica-
ton:
Success is pleasant to imperfect NOR
tails; but it is to be remembered that it
brings with it responsibilities. The
Republicans will soon assume control
of city affairs. Our-Mayor and Alder
men-elect should, aud we presume do.
realize that the promises of the canvass,
as well as the needs of the city. pledge
them to retIenchment and reform.
There are times when liberal eXpendi-
lures for public Improvements are ex-
pedient and wise ; but this is not such
IL time. The city expenses must be cut
down. Taxation must he reduced.
Rigid economy and strict accountability
in every department are demanded.
The whole hope of improvement. in
these and other particulars. rests on
the Republicans alone. and must always
rest Oh them. The Sentinel admits. in
terms, that its party observed to be
beaten" for its bad management, of the
Water Department, and of the Street
Department, and for the listing bunglc''
which was ii good deal wor>e than il
bunglc. Yet the Sentinel and every
Democrat in Burlington-hal Il dozen
or 80 excepted, Whose. action was deter
mined 10y personal consideration solel,
stood squarely by their party. and.
