Majority OF the Commission.

Majority OF the Commission.
ALBANY, Feb. 6.-The Hon. Hannibal Smith
of Watertown to-day filed with Gov. Morton
minority report OF the committee appointed
to formulate charter for cities OF the third
class.
Mr.. Smith holds that the Office of Mayor
should be OF increased dignity and power. and
says that in his report and that Of the majority
it is similarly provided that the Mayor should
have the appointive power OF city boards but
he believes that in the majority report too great
power is given the Mayor in the removal Of
heads of departments without atfordng Off
cials an opportunity to be heard. Tho minor
ity report recommends that tho power of re-
moval be vested in the Common Council. and
that no removals should be made until after Il
hearing is had. The majority report provides
for the election OF II Common Council to serve
four years, one half Of the members to be- elected
every two Years. while Mr.. Smith favOrs elect
ing an entire Board every two years.
The minority report iavors the election of
the city Treasurer by the people instead Of al
lowing that official to be appointed by the
Mayor.
The majority report provides that Commits.
two years but Mr.. Smith fnvuro IL Board Of
nine Commissioners OF Education. each to
serve six wears and Tia" terms Of three TO ex-
rate city Water Department instead of plac-
ing the water works under the control Of a Dc
partmcnt OF Public Works, as provided by the
majority.
The provision for single headed Police
Board, favored by the majority. Is not agreed
to By Mr.. mlh, VINO wants to create Il Board
wise, In cities OF the tnird class to put too
much power into one man hands.
The majority report favOrs consolidating the
city and police courts. but Mr.. Smith says they
should ny all means be continued separately.
The majority report, Mr.. Smit says, held
that It's proposed new charter should not 90
into effect for years to come, hut he reports In
