course of procedure designed as a
means to an end, an expedient method,
step" In E. P. Whipples success
essay We find the following: The
true motto for a party is neither
measures nor men, not men not meas
ures, but measures il men, measures
which are in their blood as well as in
their brains and on their lips"
The Century Dictionary thus de-
fines a measure: IA determinate
action or procedure intended as a
means to an end. anything devised or
done with the visw to the accomplish
ment of a purpose.
While as a general rule the veto
power is applied to the refusal Of d
chief executive, to approve a bill
passed by the body over which he
presides, there has been breathed
into the act Of 1893 a broader spirit,
which applies to all measures passed
by the Board Of Aldermen.
In constituting a Statute nothing is
more dangerous than to take a mar
row view, breadth and broadness in
regarding these matters are essential
in order to arrive at an accurate con
clusion.
Such has been my endeavor in rem
dering this opinion, and | submit it
to your Honorable body as the result
Of my labors and researches in this
