A STRIKING feature Of the German munich
pal system Is its entire independence OF ma
tional politics. No issues but those arising out
of municipal questions are allowed to influence
the city elections. Every male inhabitant
twenty flour years Of age has q right to vote on
municipal questions provided that he has his
own household and is not dependent on father
or mother; that he has not received aims from
the public funds within twelve years; that he
has paid all municipal Dues that he occupies a
house or pursues trade with two employees; ;
| that he pays an income tax or a class tax. IN
der one or another OF these five conditions all
| industrious persons In the city are included
That all votes should count equally is regarded
as unbusiness like. The arrangement adopted
to meet this point Of view is this: Voters were
divided into three classes, each of which elects
one-third of the city council To the first class
are assigned 80 many Of the largest taxpayers
| as pay one-third OF the taxes assessed to the
second so many as in the aggregate pay the
second third of the taxes; to the third class be-
long all not included in the first and second.
Each of the three classes elects forty-two men,
| bers of the council, its influence upon questions
OF finance being kept In strict equality with it's
| tax-payments. The city council OF Berlin has
long been conspicuous for the educational and
| financial standing of its members. Election
| to ii is accounted an honor to which the ablest
| men Of the city aspire.
