FRIDAY, JUNE 80, 1911.
THE CABINET PLAN.

There is evolution in human life
and in most things else. For a few
years there has been great deal of
agitation over municipal reform--and
changes Of the methods Of government.
The Galveston plan first caught the
popular fancy. This was followed by
the Des Moines system-which had
many Improvements over the original
plan-but was still very imperfect.
North Dakota enacted a law that is
so crude that it lacks many features
that are highly desirable. When the
effort was made to have it adopted in
Fargo-The Forum opposed 1t for sew
eral reasons--chief of which were the
imperfections of the measure. The
plan to foist the monstrosity onto
Fargo was prevented.
Mandan, Bismarck and Minot have
the system. Fargo, Grand Forks,
I. Valley City, Dickinson and other towns
defeated the measure. Mandan and
Minot have been especially unfortu-
nate in their experiences-because of
internal dissensions and the frequency
with which members of the commission
have resigned.
Staunton, Va, advanced a plan that
has many good ideas. The mayor and
the council are elected in the same old
way. At the first meeting they select
a man to run the city as a business
proposition, giving him clerks for
heads OF departments. That plan has
many advantages over those of Calves
ton and Des Moines.
Grand Rapids is coming to the front
with another plan that may be an i'm
provement over all. 1t elects a non
partisan mayor-makes him the re-
sponsible REPRESENTATIVES all ad-
ministrative functions in him. 1t per-
mits his appointment of four men to
what is called cabinet positions. Each
is the head Of one dspartment-but di-
rectly responsible to the mayor and
their tenure of office is subject entirely
to his will.
The mayor-who is a kind of gener- |
al manager-confers and acts with the |
members of his cabinet something like |
the president Of the United States.
They constitute an administrative |
board-and the mayor, like the presi /
dent--is solely responsible to the
people.
The city still retains its council
but only for legislative purposes. 1t
has no administrative duties-no ap-
pointive or conhrmatory power
The mayor and his cabinet are en-
tirely administrative-and are not
bothered about legislative affairs.
The initiative and the referendum
and the recall are included under the
Grand Rapid plan.
This cabinet system has many
strong points over the commission plan
In this state. 1t gives the mayor a
chance to make good. The appointees
are his own-and he can select men
eminently fitted for the particular kind
OF work they are to do. He will not be
handicapped by the opposition Of an
tagonistic aldermen-or jealous mem
.bers of a commission system. If his
administration becomes obnoxious the
recall nnn ha jryofrna
BY the time Fargo is ready to vote
again on the proposition the Grand
RAPIDS cabinet plan will have had a.
trial-and If it proves as promising as
1t looks-the next North Dakota legis-
lature might be induced to authorize
such a measure.

EAST BY MITCHELL PARTIES
SHOWS THE BEST CORN
CROP EVER.

People who have not been out in
the country and made a personal in
spection of the corn crop have little
idea of what is to be harvested la
ter in the season.
Messrs. Thomas Fullerton, NJ. Nj.
Doyle and A. b. Seaton made a trip
east of here and covered quite a
scope of country in an automobile
drive, and they came back to the city
enthusiastic OF what they saw in the
corn fields. Not one of the party but
who We're of the opinion that the
corn crop at the present time is the
best they have ever seer in the state,
and they emphasize this TACT by
stating hat the crop is far advanc-
ed end doubtless will be Well out OF
the way of frost. ever though it
might come a trihe early.
The gentlemen went into the fields
in more than a dozen cases, ana in
nearly every instance they found the
best corn they ever saw. The eXcep-
tional cases Of poor corn hat plant
in the early spring, and this does not
make the same good showing. There
is not very much of hat in the coun-
try they travelled. They said a very
large proportion of the corn vas now
in the roasting ear stage, which is
away in advance of the usual stoge
of growth at this period.
In referring to the moist condi-
ton of the ground, the gentlemen
stated that in all the localities they
visited they found the ground in
splendid shape to carry the crop for
a long period of time. The moisture
extends deep into the soil. ana is suf-
'icient to carry on the development
to the end of the season.

do not have standing in this sec
ton when it m to corn and a
god portion of the wheat crop. This

make i fine exhibit at the corr palace

will be gathered for the big exhibit
