Fifty the slogan adopted by the adj
vocates of the new Commission form
charter? The obvious Intention o.
The "Commiss, ron form" people is to
convey the impression that the MUM
cipal work Of Wheeling will be dor
by five men instead OF fifty and that
great economy and efficiency will be
the result. To those who are famil-
lar with the situation. il is hardly
necessary TO say that there never
was a more misleading proposition
put before the people Of the city u,
Wheeling.
All that Commission form" will do
and all that Is provided in tine com
mission form charter. is our city couu-
Gil. and board of control and substitute
therefore five high salaried Com
m~issiorers." This commission will
have absolute authority over all city
affairs Of whatever nature. II will
combine ali three functions of govern
ment. thus destroying utterly the priu-
ciple upon which this nation was
founded and under which every por-
tion Of il has been governed previous
TO the arrival OF this new-faneled nos
trum for imaginary evils.
After these commissioners are once
elected. they will do as they please
with all city jobs. all city money and
all city franchises. for there will be
no restraining power. The people OF
any section will have no direct rep
resentation. and the recall" provided
is so framed as 10 the absolutely
worthless. The only chance of the
city 10 have good government under
this charter would be 10 always have
rs members of the commission. mon
Of the strictcst integrity and most
thorouch business and aoll-
ity. And one I'm the slightest degree
familiar with politics knows that tho
s%upposition that We would always get
that kind Of non is childishe and 10
surd.
