Bristol Has City Manager.

The adoption of city manager by
the town of Bristol, Tenn, with
population of about 10000, may not be
of the highest Importance from po-
litical viewpoint except for one reason
it adds to the evidence that the city
manager idea is spreading, leaving the
inference almost q certainty that II Is
n question of time only until admins
tration by city manager is taken up ny
the biggest cities as well as the smaller
towns. The choosing OF manager for
Bristol for a term of three years prom
ises that the plan is to be given ialr
fest which it should have If any com
parison that will be satisfying is to be
made between the towns old political
system and the new. Unless man
aver is allowed the necessary time 70
work reforms and present results, the
handicap would probably be too heavy
and in case of failure would register
a mark against the city manager un
iuStly.
