have done so until it has submitted to the legis-
latfve committee a code examine and consider
IN connection with the proposed charter. Doubt
less committee will afford the commission every
opportunity TO complete its work.
The few defects in the charter and the imperfec
tons of the code may be readily cured II the joint
legislative committee, in conjunction with the char
ter commission. takes up the entire subject upon
the lines indicated by the language of the joint
resolution. It would be deplorable, indeed. If a
charter SO admirable in its general features and
its completion should not be brought 10 the best
attainable conditon-a desideratum more important
than the enactment of the charter into law at any
particular time to meet a particular exigency. II
the charter and code can be brought q state fit
for consideration at special session Of the Legis-
rature this fall. well and good. Much remains TO
be done. but II can be accomplished in time to
allow OF this most desirable consummation If the
Joint committee is promptly appointed and actively
co-operates with the commission.
That pubic discussion and criticism Of the pro-
posed charter and code should show the existence
Of defects is to be expected. Mr. Hamilton. in the
concluding number OF The Federalist after as
serting that a perfect work would never come from
imperfect man, declared that the result Of the
deliberations OF all collective bodies must neces-
sarily be a compound as we'll of the errors and
prejudices as of the good sense and wisdom of the
individuals of whom they are composed" But in
conceding the existence of errors do not admit a
radical defect Of plan The soundness of the prin-
ciples underlying the commissions work cannot De
gainssid. Whether its charter and code be enacted
into law or not as was we'll said in its report last
March. its labors must contribute ito the founda-
ton upon which a satisfactory organic law and ad-
rninistrative code for the city may be established
