STRONG FEATURE IN THE
COMMISSION FORM OF CITY
GOVERNMENT.

Just at this time many southern
newspapers are giving serious
thought to the commission form Of
government, which has been adopted
in many municipalities all over the
country. In every city where this
new plan has been tested ii has solv-
ed the problems Of city government
and 1t has brought to the various
commissions the very best charac-
ter of material to be had. One of the
best contributions to the, subject We
have yet seen is from the Atlanta
Constitution, and it is as follows:
In an atle and Informative ad
dress before a notable gathering Of
Alabama business men, Associate
Editor ]. b. Hornady. of the Birm-

of the idea behind the commission
form of municipal government in
the cities in which il has been
adopted.
The recital of what the new plan
has done in such cities as Galveston,
Des Moines, Houston, Dallas and
smaller communities is a forceful
argument to prove what it may do
in other communities.
Back of the whole plan is the la.
sic idea that a municipal government
is business. corporation Taxpayers
who invest money in municipal gov
eminent are entitled to- returns as
surely as stockholders in a railroad
or banking corporation.
Taxpayers are entitled to have
