IS RICrrMoNp ArnAD OF ITSELF

Those who opposed tho Hirschberg
amendment based their position chiefly
on the argument that Richmond could
not put the Police and Fire Boards int D
politics without suffering a great loss
thereby. Would these gentlemen say
that the Police and Fire Boards are
ont OF politics to-day? Or, would they
say that Richmond was incapable of
elccting men who can administer those
departments wisely? Do the oppo-
nents OF Capitalization Of authority in
Richmond fear that this city will run
mad with Puritanlsm and mako blue
laws the daily food for this commun-
ity? Or do they fear that tho people
OF Richmond will be so misguided and
'inwise as to elect commissioners who
will try u run Richmond as wide
open town. without regard TO the
wishes OF the great majority OF the
people?
If. these harassins doubts beset the
minds of any opponent of centraliza-
ton government, The Times Dispatch
VIII offer them the comforting thought
that no city has ever suffered yet
where good citizens were enabled under
the law to put power and responsibility
In the hands OF their representatives.
The difficulties that have surrounded
administration OF city government
elsewhere have been due to the fact
that the citizens were not good or that

The agitation and action over the

has begun a campaign of education OF

The campaign for this plan has been
tremendously informing. and 1t has

the results Of the agitation is that a
standard of comparison has been Gre
ated in the minds of hundreds of cIti-

fact that there arc cities which nave
