"CHANGE ENGINEERs.-

The Vtroinian cannot refrain from saying a
word every now and then In advocacy of the
commission form of government, or in present
ing the occasional sane views II notes from
other round tables. Here is a viewpoint. for
instance, we have not seen emphasized, and 1t
cmanates from the wise little man who sits
at the editorial helm of The Wilmington
Dispatch:
"As we have before contended wherever
there ia any fault to be found with the com
n ,ssion form Of government 1t Is with the: man
ser Of administering. and not with the method.
The machinery In most cases is ample, or can
be strengthened by simple means in case there

Invariably with the men who are handling IL.
rhe remedy then Is to change the men. not

would II help any to engage an engineer
nd change the locomotive so as to have one
rot the equal OF the one In use The sensible
hing would be to retain the present locomotive

That's the idea exactly, and neatly expressed.
