Charter Recommendations.

Sidi tSi
The recommendation for special
charters for municipalities and coun-
ties is as follows:
"As olcal government under the eX-
ercise of the police power is made TO
respond to the needs and conditions of
the people, its administration becomes
more complex. Fixed and general
rules for the administration of coun-
I ties or municipalities as a rule are not
adequate for such conditions. Hence
the necessity for the framing of speci-
al charters by local municipalities. In
| the eyolvement of such government
| the electors in their local government
al capacity should be given great lati-
tude in the framing of charters. This
should be done to the extent of elm
mating nominations by political par
ties, thereby reducing to strictly "a
business proposition the administra-
tion of local government in the sphere
where pOllllCdl parties SuOulu Optl dlSs
for political parties exist for the pur-
pose of promoting principles and meas
ures and good government What is
essential for local government in one
community might not be proper in an
other community. SO political party
as a party in a state should have no
particular office as to such local mat
ters. One of the cardinal principles
OF the democratic party is local self
government. If the electors of the
municipality desire to provide for the
selection of their officials without par
ty nominations so that efficiency may
be promoted without party machine
impediments, such subdivisions should
have that power Outlines local offc-
ers are Indifferent as to the success of.
the party in the state, where great
political principles are at issue being
absorbed in personal local matters.
But if these local officers are efficient

Would Abolish Nominations.


II accordingly recommend the sub
mission of an amendment to section D
OF Article III of the constitution of
this state, so as to permit municipali-
ties in framing such charters to dis
pense with political nominations and
also to authorize counties to adopt
special charters for their county gov
ernments and therein eliminate party
nominations"
In urging a short ballot the COVER.
nor says:
Il further recommend that COnstitn
tional amendments be submitted so as
to make the clerk of the supreme
court commissioner of insurance, the
state examiner and inspector and the
state mine inspector appointive of
does.
On account of the numbers of of
fees elective in this state, the length
of the ballot often results in confu
sion, and if we are to ever have an op
short ballot, it is essential that these
amendments be submitted so that the
people can determine as to whether
or not they want to try the short bal
lot plan. In framing these amend
ments, it might be wise to submit
them in such Il manner as to make
these offices appointiye until other
wise provided by law, and then, il the
peOpe were to become dissatisfied with
the appointive plan, change could be
made without an amendment to the
constitution.
Will Remove Temptation
Under these amendments suggest
ed by me, especially the one that
makes it so that governor can not be
come a candidate for the office OF
United States senate during his term
or for one year afterward, the tempta.
tion TO use the great power of this Of
flee or those that may be conferred
upon that office for political purposes
will be removed. We have the oppor-
tunity and we should utilize it to frame
and install our government so as to
make it one great agency of efficien-
c., so as to carry the best government
possible to the people with the least
reasonable burden. In submitting
these amendments to the people, we
give them an opportunity to
pass on the question as to whether or
not they desire to adopt them"

SUGGESTS
ABOLITION Of
CO. COURTS
GOVERNOR WILLIAMS URGES
SEVERAL REFORMS ALONG JU-
OICIARY LINES. WOULD LIMIT
APPEALS. INCREASE BENCH.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Jan. Is
Thirteen subjects for amendments to
the constitution of Oklahoma are dis
cussed in the message of Governor
Williams to the legislature and recon-
mendatiOHs are made for their sub
mission to the people 1t 10 expected
that an election for such of these
amendments as shall be submitted by
the legislature, may be held in August
After that il is expected that the legis-
lature may be called in extraordinary
session to vitaiize the amendments
that may be adopted by enacting prop
er laws. II Is the expectation of par
ty leaders that the present session will
be able to adjourn at or near the eX-
piration OF the siXty-day limit and that
the state will be able TO get along until
September or October without further
legislation. This implies of course
that the appropriation bill will be pass
ed by the regular session.
In the recommendations for consti-
tutonal amendments as made by gov
ernor Williams, the courts come in for
the biggest share OF these changes in
the fundamental law. His plan for
reform of the judiciary and relief of
the dockets of the higher courts in
cludes the limiting of appeals; the
supreme court to be divided into divi-
sions, the criminal court of appeals
to be one of the divisions; dispensing
with written opinions in the supreme
court under rules; the rendering of
Judgment without reversal in certain
cases; abolition of the county courts.
