DISCUSSION ON
 PROPOSED CHARTER.

Continued from Page Five) by the council. Mir. Tirrell said yes This, MT. Browning thought was giv- ing much more power than the council had, as the old charter requires that the voters shall determine the amount of money to be expended each year. It was strong feature of the old char ter that the annual budget must be re- ferred tc the people, and that is now changed.
 What the mayor and council former ly could not do, the commission could do and it would require 15 per cent. of the voters to get it before a city meeting. This would be hard to get.
 MT. Tirren thought this an excellent point, but he thought that city meet ings very seldom materially changed the budget. The new plans call for the budget to come before the city be- fore election, instead of arter, which will make the officials work for the best possible showing and if they do not act wisely they can be taken out of office. The submitting of the bud get to the people, however. can easily be put in the charter and the num- Der of the signers for the referendum can be changed.
 F. w. Cary read the report of the committee of 1904, which favored the taking the budget away from the peo- pie.
 Albert Boardman moved that the sense of the meeting is that 15 per cent. of the voters for the referendum. called for in section 62, can be reduced to per cent. Mir. Browning thought it best to leave the matter with the commission after making the sugges- ton. but he thought per cent. or per- haps 250, too many signers to- get. On his suggestion. MT. Boardman with drew his motion.
 Mir. Boardman moved that it be the sense the meeting to eliminate the words, and who has not for one year immediately preceding his election paid taxes other than state taxes" and that portion of section II which refers to the party affiliation be elim- mated.
 There arose a discussion over this latter suggestion and MT. Tirrell said it was the idea to get men qualified for the office rather than to have them the party candidates. It gives a man the right to stand on a ticket on his own merit rather than backed by po litical party.
 MT Boardman said he wanted it so that the socialist party could have candidate.
 Overcome Party Lines.
 Rev. F. S. Worcester explained that 1t was not prohibiting any club or as- sociation or party standing for some definite principle or measure of muni pal reform. What is sought is the overcoming of tho old political lines which did not originate in the cities, but are national, to prohibit them go- ing into the cities. There is no req son why the people should vote on party lines for the conduct of the city's business.
 MT. Browning explained that if it was desirous to favor primary cleo tions this section could not be cut out.
 At this point, Fred Klein moved that the meeting adjourn, which it did at ten o'clock.
