The greatest objection to the

. The greatest objection to the
commission form of government,
as now developed, is that a large
majority of the electors is unrep-
resented upon the city legislature
of five members. For, whatever
administrative functions may be
assigned to each COIN missioner, it
is still true that, as whole. they
fix the rate of taxation, apportion
the city's income and enact ordi-
nances, all of them Legislative
functions. The city commission,
therefore, is small body, chosen
by a plurality, upon which a min
GRITTY of the electorate. however
large, is rfnrepresented. But if the
minority does not care to be rep
resented, what more is to be said
