Mr. James A. Francis, who served tA'S

Limit the Street Bands!

Street bands. more particularly the little
German bands whose speciality is Die
Yacht am Rhein," are not quite so vo-
ciferous now as they were at the begin
ming of the summer. Nevertheless, their
activities are so extensive that the city
would be a happier place to live in If they
were restricted.
The present code of ordinances contains
no limitation as to the time and place az
which these itinerant musicians may dis
pense their concord of "sweet sounds. -
Street organs are limited to the period be-
tween 9 a. m. and 6 p. m. There seems no
earthly reason why the street bands should
have anv advantage over their competitors
in this respect. There is now pending be-
fore the Aldermen an amendment to the
ordinances restricting the street bands as
the street organs are now limited. 1t
would please and relieve many thousands
Of good citizens if this amendment were
adopted. Such q change would be a
worthy part of the city's general policy
# reducing street noises and nuisances.

Not a Partisan Constitution.

"The World" insists that the proposed
new constitution is partisan document
Our neighbor would find 1t hard to SUD-
stantiate that opinion from the records
of the Constitutional Convention. There
was one out-and-out partisan division IN
the voting on the articles Of the new con-
stitution-that on the apporhonment pro
vision.
1t is true that twenty-eight Democrats
voted against the finished draft, whereas
only fifteen Democrats voted for 1t. But
all the important articles were approved,
not only by a majority Of the Republican
members of the convention, but by ma
iority Of the Democrats as well. Demo
Gratis voted for the department reorgani-
zation-short ballot provision, Is to 10.
Democrats voted for the executive bud
get, SO to 2. Democrats voted for the
home rule provision, IS to 10. Democrats
voted for the judiciary article, 81 to z.
Mr.. Root in adjourning the convention
pointed out that twelve amendments had
been adopted unanimously, twelve by a
majority of more than 10 tn l, two by
more than 7 to /, two by more than to l.,
two by more than to !, and three by
more than to /.
Ii happens that Republicans were in
numerical control of the convention which
framed the new constitution. That body
was, however, singuarly free from parti-
san politics or partisan action. That fact
is greatly to it's credit. Whatever faults or
shortcomings The World" may find in the
document, it should not saddle on it one
which does not belong there.
