than to municipal government. Good
government In municipality implies
many visible, tangible" benefits. That
is what 1t is mainly for. In fact, a
municipality is very largely a business

ried on for the comfort and convent

our president They have little to do
with tho fundamentals Of government
NNc look to the State for these; wo
look to tho municipality Of Richmond
for police protection, for good streets
for parks, for public sanitation, for
wator and gas, for protection from fire.
for n drainage system, and in tho
main for school facilities. The people
are not taxed for good government
alone, as tho Mayor applies the term.
They arc taxed directly and specifically
for NIL tho conveniences we have
named. and they have the right to
expect and demand that tho munich
palty give them value received.
