majority OF the electors throughout
the entire city and we must be con-
tent to abide by the decision SO OBJ
tanned. The chances are that the
men so elected will be satisfactory
types Of citizens. These five men
will choose one Of their number to
act as a commission president and the
few appointments necessary will d.
volve upon him. It is hard to con-
ceive how a more refining process
could be followed in a community
than in the selection of one individ-
ual who has besn elected a commits
sioner byNthe preferential system OF
voting fronra list Of many candidates,
and finally elected to be president Of
the commission. It would seem that
the few appointments necessary for
him to make would be safe in such
hands, especially as he must take the
sole responsibility for those appoint
ments.
At the present time the members
of the board of educate n are sup
posed to be elected. but with the ex-
ception of two years ago the two
dominant political parties have placed
on the board two members from each
party at each election, so that their
nomination became equivalent TO an
election. The nominations ere ,usu,
ally dictated by the political leaders
and therefore are practically appoint
ments to this board.
Our public school systems are ver5
sacred to American ideals and we dc
not believe that the trust reposed in
the commission president for the APP
pointments to the board of education
would be abused.
If the men who voted for the new
charter last November were really
sincere in wanting q new charter fol
the city, it will be adopted on Satur'
day Bridgeport has the possibilities
of being one of the most progressive
prosperous and up-to-date cities OF
its size in the Union. We know thai
| our present form Of government is in
efficient. Why not move up into the
twentieth century and at least tr,
something that gives a much brishte,
prospect for the future?
Yours very truly,

This is the latest word coming from

The season Of planting, however,

therefore be assumed that the popular

Went To Supreme Court

A nolle prosequi, moved by City At.
torney Brown and granted by Judge
Ashford, brought 20 a close yesterday
the twoyear-old double usury charges

/ Among Browns reasons for moving
The nolle was the fact, he said, that he
believed the defendant had been sufli-
ciently punished already, owing to the
time, expense and trouble he had gone
through in fighting one of the charges.
Attorney @. y. Peterson, brother of the
,lefendant, objected 10 granting the
.uolle ON such grounds. lie urged the
clearance of the charges against his
brother not on the grounds Of charity,
but on its own merits.
This brought to close rather in.
teresting case. Together with several
others, one Of whom served several

W. l.. Peterson was charged with nsury,
He was tried on one case before Jury

for Judge Ashfordss decision yesterday
in entering the nolle prosequi precludes
such possibility.
In reviewing the trial before the con

FERTILIZER BILLS
REDUCED By MANURE

Careful experiments conducted BY
the British board Of agriculture show
the value Of the manure produced BY
dairy cattle 10 range from two-third,
Of cent TO one and twosthirds cent?
per gallon Of milk produced.
The solid manure should be stored IN
roofed bins, while the liquid manure
should be stored in cisterns, the sur
face covered with crude oil to proven
the loss Of ammonia. Innocnlation Of
the liquid manure with Tactic acid bac-
terra results in converting the volatile
fertilizing ingredients into a non4yol
atile form. If stable mannres are care
fully preserved material reduction in
the fertilizer bill can be affected.
