BETTER CITY GOVERNMENT.

One thing on which there is a chance
of common agreement, is the necessity
for better method of city government
TEN now in vogue here. Public senti-
ment is almost unanimous as to that.
and without regard to the political as
pect of it. SO strong is this sentiment
that it would have secured the passage
ofSe bill for new charter at the last
session of the Legislature if it had not
been for the trickery OF the Republican
leaders.
Now those same men are discussing
in friendly fashion a change in plans.
Whether they have in mind a genuine
reform, or whether they contemplate
city government by state commission
will develop later. If they are in earn
est about a proper system of govern
ment which Will enable the people of
Salt Lake to govern themselves, they
viii find no difficulty in getting sup
port; if they imagine the city will stand
for a ripper" bill they will discover
their mistake when they attempt legis-
lation to that end.
What the city needs is a business or
ganization which will simplify the adj
ministration of affairs and concentrate
authority with responsibility in the
hands of a few men. Whether the Des
MOines plan or the Galveston idea is
best. may he decided when the subject
has been studied more thoroughly. It
may be that a modification of either
system could be devised that would APP
ply better here. The object of any
change. however. will be to apply bust
ness methods TO the city's business.
and do il in such way that response
bility for inefficiency or crookedness
may be fixed. and credit given for good
management where it is deserved in
any department
A first-class business organization
would effect the saving of thousands of
dollars annually. il would expedite the
public business, reduce the number of
employees to the actual needs of the
work. and enable the public to know
who is to blame when anything goes
wrong. Under the present system. or
lack of system. promptness, economy
and efficiency are impossible: the pub
lie service suffers from incompetency
and no one can say just where the re-
sponsibility lies for wrongdoing or
laundering. 4 change should be made,
and if it is done with a view to real
betterment. regardless of political
strategy, Salt Lake ought to get as
nearly model city government as is
possible in this country.

WHY THEY LEAVE THE FARM.

The appointment of a federal COM
mission to study conditions of farm
life in this country has evoked a good
deal of discussion, humorous and other
wise. but all the contributors agree
that life on the American farm is such
that the younger generation Will not
stand IL when escape is possible A boy
will desert a good home in the country
where he has certainty of a living in
comfortable surroundings for a place
in a big city where he earns a bare ex-
istence by hard labor and spends HIS
leisure time under conditions that
would seem 10 be incomparably less
desirable than those he left. Girls take
no more kindly 10 farm life than do
the boys. and. like their brothers. they
leave for the towns and cities when
escape is possible.
In all the contributions on the sub
ject, the most intelligent so far is one
in the current number of the American
Magazine from a Kansas farmer. who
says that the curse of farm life is its
loneliness and lack Of social relaxation.
Curiously enough. his remedy for this
trouble is exactly the idea put into ex-
ecution by Brigham Young when he
brought his people to Utah.
The Kansan says farming should be
carried on by communities living in
settlement together. and farming the
lands within reasonable distance of
the settlement That plan 1naugurated
here over fifty years ago has demon
strated perfectly its feasibility
Throughout this state today are large
agricultural areas cultivated by people
who live in adjacent settlements. They
are successful in agriculture without
sacrificing the pleasures of social life:
they have their amusements. which are
impossible in isolated farming: they
have splendid schools easily accessible.
Their church life is as well organized
as in any city. and they are enabled by
their system to work together in the
affairs of life TO much better advan-
tage than if they We're scattered on SEN
arate tracts of land, each man living to
himself and for himself alone.
IL is true that the younger generation
everywhere is inclined to desert the ar
duous labor of the farm for the easier
if less independent and profitable duties
OF city work. but we beHeve the
boys and girls of Utah have less aver
sion for farm life than is common in
