The next thing now before the Legisls.
ture is the appropriation of $4,000 for
much needed repairs on the old house, re-
pairs. which we suspect are absolutely es-
sential to keep it from falling down. This
must be made, OF course; We
do not oppose it, but favor it, and we hope
the advocates of removal in the Legislature
will vote for it, because it is right to do it.

who attend to doing the work In the several
departments of city expenditure, superyi.-

the money they appropriate, matter with
which they should have nothing to do; but
Tor winch the mayor and his Bubordipates in

That work he con nitted to the executive de-
partment. We might learn then who is do
Ing his work well and who is not.
The mayor of New England city who is
often uDjustly held responsible for the mum
icipal work of the year, is really person of
very little power. He is surrounded by a
throng of little mayors, the chairmen of
committees OF the city council, who have
much more to say than he does about that
very department of the government of which
ne is The representative to the public. The
scheme of ali executive council, favored by
the Boston commission, seems to be an
her device for dividing responsibility. and
promoting inefficiency. II is borrowed from
the obsolescent form of governors councils
IN states. While ii avoids the complication
OF executive AID legislative functions, ii Gre
ates in the executive department itself

er than strength, and provides for everybody

rying such Stale as New York, when the
good people of South Carolina can secure
victory under circumstances far more oner-
GUS and trying than those which surround
any Northern or Western Statew Will the
Argus. which processes to regard the allega-
ton that some of the Southern States were
carried for Cleveland by fraud as very wicked

Outside of Vermont it is probably not gen
orally known that citizen of that State is
allowed to vote in aty town where he hap
pens to be on election day, whether that
town is hts place of residence or not. But
such is the fact, and bill has just been in
treduced into the legislature that hereafter
voter shall cast his ballot only in the town
where be resides and has IT sided for at least
three months before election. Had Vermont
been close State there would have been
a fine opportunity 10 carry it by means OF
