an experiment. 1t is in effect in more
than 500 cities in AZ states, and while
1t is no easy matter to prove con-
clusively in true scientific fashion
, that one city is better governed than
another, nevertheless, despite the diff
ficulty Of making comparisons, there
Is nothing more certain than the fact
that whether the commission form
OF government is the ideal form or
not, it is much better than the form
which preceded it in those cities.
Never in our political history has
any phenomenon of this nature been
examined with such minuteness or by
SO many investigators. In Galveston
and other early cities in the adoption
,of this plan it has been necessary
TO publish pamphlets as an answer
TO inquiries, and the National NUM-
cipal League and the National Short
Ballot Organization have made ex.
haustlve reports of their investiga-
ton Of the workings of this plan, and
all agree that it is a vast improve
ment over the old system. A few
years ago when Boston was planning
a new city charter, President Elliott,
OF Harvard, made a tour of commits
sion governed cities and returned to
Boston so enthusiastic that he was
able to win over the city to an ac-
ceptance Of some of the fundamental
features of the plan.
-Four years ago the Allen law was
new, the Commission form an expert
ment in this state, and the electors
of Aberdeen voted down a PROPOSE
ton to change, prefering to await the
practical working out of the law. We
have now the experience of the cit
les Of Hoquiam, Centralia, Chehalis,
North Yakima and Walla Walla to
guide us. Under this law city must
publish pamphlet monthly giving
a detailed itemized statement of all
receipts and expenses and summary
of the proceedings of the commission
during the proceeding month, fea.
ture that has done much to increase
the interest of the public in city at
fairs. A comparison of those reports
from the cities now under the Allen
law, shows very material decrease
in the cost of administering the af-
fairs of the city, as well as the great
err celebrity with which public business
is transacted.
No system or set of men ever gave
satisfaction to everybody in an Off
cial sense, hence in some of the cit
les named will be found some to de-

Short on Argument

The Grays Harbor Post must be
very short on argument in opposing
the commission form of city govern
ment, when it seeks to condemn the
movement for the change upon the
suspicion that some of those favor
ing the proposition may have SIMS
ter motives. This line of talk de-
ceives no one. The matter of the
change is now up to the people and
all will desire the fullest information
on the subject. That some favoring
the change may have personal rea-
sons does not condemn the PROPOSE
ton. any more than will the fact that
quite a number oppose the movement
for exactly the same reasons make
for its adoption.
The present writer has no charges
to make against the present or past
administrations of the city, further
than the waste that is unavoidable
under the present system. He advo-
Gates the change because he sees an
opportunity for a more efficient ad-
ministration under the commission
form than is possible to obtain un-
der the present system. II the Post
can show him in error in this view,
he will be obliged, but twaddle will
not 60 as argument in his conviction

clare the commission form a failure.
but those monthly reports fatty con.
tradlct those statements. Under any
system of representative government.
success or failure lies with the per-
sonnet of the governing body, and
their selection is in the hands of the
citizens, vast majority of whom de.
sire good and economical government.
But, this big majority often find their
desires frustrated by themselves
through lack of energetic effort on
election days, while minority with
an axe to grind is to be found stead
lily on the job all day.
Opponents of the commission plan
complain of the additional expense
by reason of the salaries paid the
commissioners. Let us see how that
figures out: The salaries of the
present mayor and council amount
to $4,1O0 a year. Under the Allen
law the mayor would receive $500
and the commissioners $4,000 per on
mum each, making $500, an increase
of $4,000. But when we consider that
the commissioner of finance acts as
treasurer; that the commissioner OF
public mprOvements-if we are wise
enough to select a civil engineer, as
has Hoquiam, will act as city engi-
neer, and that the mayor may be po-
lice judge-a sinecure position now
under the dry law-we find the saw
ing in salaries more than the in
crease.
Opposition to this improvement in
our city affairs comes from three
sources, the chief Of which will be
found in the Indifference of many
whose interests really demand more
attention to city management, yet
who are content to yawp once year
when they receive tax statements
and let it go at that. The next is
the Socialist party. With them it is
tenet of political faith that they
inject partyism into all elections, and
they fear that under the news sys-
TEN they would, as a party, lose rep
resentation in the administration of
the city''s affairs, notwithstanding the
fact that political economists attribute
80 per cent of municipal waste and
corruption to partyism in city cleo
tons.
Under the present ward system,
this party has three members of the
council, elected by wards, and enjoys
the distinction of being the only po-
litical party recognized in the admin
istration of the city. This represent
alton they would doubtless lose I'M

What Commission Government Means

The adoption of the commission
form OF government for the city. un.
der the provisions of the Allen law
means the application of common
sense to our municipal business, and
the abandonment of the old Ameri.
can tradition, that waste, incompe.
tence and misrule are unavoidable un.
der our plan of government. 1t means
that responsibility shall succeed ir.
responsibility, and that when a waste
full mistake is made by the city ad-
ministration any citizen can imme.
diately place the blame upon the Of.
fetal at fault-something that is ut
terly impossible under the antiquat-
ed ward-councilmanic system.
The city of Aberdeen is in reality
a corporation with a paid up capital
stock of $15,0O0,0OO, and of which
each citizen is stakeholder, the adj
ministration of which has large dis
erection in the collection and disburse-
ment of nearly $5OO,O0O,OO0 a year.
Every dollar wasted in that admins
tratiOn comes from the pockets of
the people of this city, and it is not
necessary that one be property hold
err to pay for that waste. No one
escapes in the end. The property
owner may hold the tax receipt, but
he passes the buck every time, and
adds the sum to the rent of his prop
erty or the price of his goods. Hence
every citizen is personally interested
in securing the best possible service
for the least possible price, just as
he is in any line Of business. City
government under our present system
is practically the same as it was thir-
ty years ago, although in every other
line of endeavor business methods
have been revolutionized in that per-
Tod.
The Allen law gives such cities as
Aberdeen the opportunity to remedy
the existing wasteful evils by permit.
ting the Introduction of modern bust
ness methods into city management
The plan is by no means perfect, and
will doubtless be succeeded before
many years by the Ohio plan of a

vote of the city at large.
The third is the city employees, who
dread any change lest their jobs be
placed in jeopardy, and who can
scarcely be blamed for their attitude
under the circumstances. Yet all
necessary employees will be required
under the Allen law just as at pres
ent. Unnecessary ones, if such ap-
pear, should be let go, and there is
no doubt that the employee who is
competent and willing to earn his pay
will find his services in the same

In an address New York advertis-
ing man said the biggest field open to
the business man today was in Great
ing new wants among the people, and
he illustrated his contention In this
way, the Ohio State Journal observes:
III stocking makers could convince
women It was cheaper and easier to
buy stockings than to darn old ones,
what q help 1t would be to the knit
ting industry. Darning stockings and
socks is the bugaboo of every woman"
There is a fine suggestion in all this
Darning stockings is too insignificant
an occupation for women of high think
ing and simple living. It may be a
useful labor, but 1t is 80 tedious as to
wear the patience out Of a good wom-
an. There is a humility in the task
that adorns true woman, but there
is also mild drudgery about It that
crawls all over the nerves and leaves
track of worry and Impotence. Or
dinarily 1t doesn't pay. It is possible.
II the work was brought down to the
base of ordinary wages, the good wom-
an wouldn't earn more than rs cents
day and that will buy six or seven
pairs of socks that will endure two
wearings Besides, darned socks are
not much improvement on the un-
darned kind.
