House File 214.
In Mr.. Winston's bill relating to GOV
ernment of municipal corporations,
| the subject is first divided into two
general divisions: First, organization;
and, second, government when organ
lied. Under the head of Organ
ization" is treated the organiza-
tion OF new corporations, the
reincorporation of those existing
under special acts of charters, the an
neXation of adjacent territory to exist
ing corporations and the union of ad
joining corporations under one govern
ment,and these provisions are applicable
to all the classes.
"Class A." "ClasS B." etc., has been
thought best, instead of ''first-class.n
"second-class," etc. The classification
by population is made to meet the de-
mandS Of the different communities, and
all the provisions applicable to each are
claimed to be as nearly as possible those
which are now in operation and have
been found satisfactory
Title |. treats of the classification, Or
ganiZation and powers of all such cor
pOrationS. being provisions applicable to
| all classes.
Title II. treats of ''cities of Glass A."

Of that class, the same being divided
into articles, the first of which treats of
the division into departments and the
several provisions, powers and duties
applicable to all departments, the object
being here to group all the classitica-
ton, powers and duties common to all
offices and departments and the general
relations one to another and the restrc-
tons applicable in all. To avoid unnec-
essary repetition of these provisions
thereafter, the other articles embrace
only such matters as are more partlc-
ularly pertinent to the office or depart
ment named.
Article of Title II. treats Of the ex-
ecutive department., or of the election,
powers and duties of the mayor; Article
3, of the legislative department. or city
council; Article 4, relates to the
police department; Article 5, fire de-
