Our American faith in business meth

good methods, seems very often to me
most pathetic confession of our moral in
capacity to recognize the basis of all sound
business methods. These may be improved
by being made more economical as to the
expenditure of time money, and more
efficient in the achievement of particular re-
suits. But, behind all methods, it is impera-
tive that there should be high standard,
or ideal, of obligation, and it is along this
line that / think the moral sense of the
country, and especially of the commercial
classes, needs to be awakened. I began life

s1vpp ON CITY GOVERNMENT.
Des Moincs Attorney Reads Able "a
per Before SearchIight Club.

OeS MONIES Attorney ueauS NV
per Before SearchIight Club.
II. II. Stlpp, one of the younger az :
torneys of Des Moines read an apie
paper before the Searchlight cup
Tuesday evening on Municipal GOV
eminent" dealing especially with tine
Galveston plan. The keynote soufriea
by N1r. Stipp, whether considering
the Galveston or any other plan or
municipal government, was niddlns
city government of inefficiency the
spoil system, and putting In uheE
stead the merit or civil service system
and above all taking out of the city
business politics. Mr.. Stipp's paper
showed intimate knowledge of the cal
weston plan. which. however. he docs
not claim to be ideal and might pc
come should by it the city affairs pass
into the control of corrupt men, just
as bad and even worse than the sys-
TEN now in vogue.
Leading up to his subject Mr.. Stipp
briefly outlined the plan of govern
ment carried out in Paris, and cities IN
Germany and England. all of which
work admirably. He then followed
with a recitation of the conditions and
demands which have brought out the
need of a. change, and the reason CAL
weston was granted a special charter
by which At rebuilt its city after the
storm OF 1903 SO far, he said the Cal
weston plan. had proved successful.
Briefly outlined the Galveston plan
Is: A board Of commissioners OF f1Ne.
one of whom is the mayor elected by
the people. Each commissioner nolas
office for two years. The mayor Is
chairman of the commission and ms
salary is $1,000 year. He must de-
vote six hours a day to the city,s busi-
ness. The salary Of each commission
err is $1,000 year. The board OF COM
missioners appoints all officers In all
of the city's departments. Each boafu
member is the head of an adninistra-
tive department. The mayor rs the ex-
ecutive head of the city. Each COM
missioner audits the accounts of his
department, and twice each year the
mayor makes financial report to the
state. The merit system applies to
all city employees, except department
heads, altho this is not incorporated IN
the special charter. The plan mas
worked out so that Galvestons ables,
and most efficient professional and
business men are members OF the
board.
In closing Mr.. Stipp said: Before
any marked Improvement in city af-
fairs is possible there must be a rad
ical change. There will never be eff
ficient municipal government until tina
city's affairs are divorced from poll,
ties Mr.. Stipp holds the voter re-
sponsible.
After he had closed the subject was
opened for general discussion In which
a number took part. Before he began
the girls and boys glee clubs of the
high school, under the direction of
Miss King, entertained the club with
four numbers.
