THE CITY CHARTER

Next week the voters Of the city Of
Alma will be asked 20 either ratify or
reject the charter, which has been
submitted by the charter commission.
and which will be put in operation in
the city. if Il meets with the approval
of the voters
The revising Of the charter has
been a hard task, the work of months,
which was given the earnest con
sideration Of dozen men. who are
among the most able residents of the
city, men of standing which is such
that 1t is a certainty that they would
have only the best interests of the
city at heart in doing this work.
\ most careful reading of the
charter, which comes before the
voters for their approval, indicates
that it viii far better suit the needs
Of the city than the old time worn
charter which is now in use. II is
brought down TO date, provides for
many needs Of the future, which were
carefully thought out by these men,
who saw in the future a far larger
city than Alma now is, and made
provisions for needs that might then
arise.
1t will change the present form Of
city government and give Alma a
commission form, which is needed
here, and which without question will
prove a good thing for the city
II will make the various Office
holders the more responsible for the
various conditions which arise in
their departments, as it will be much
harder under this charter for then
TO shift blame to other quarters The
head of each department will in
dividuallly be responsible for the af
fairs of his department. and 1t vii
not be case Of, Il thought that
Tom looked after that, and so | paiC
no attention to it" He will know
that Tom looked after IT,
Then over the various department
heads will be business manager
who will have charge Of the business
affairs of the city and TO whom tn,
department heads Will be responsible
This manager will not be elected. II,
will be appointed by the commission
ers, and he will be responsible t,
them for the affairs Of his office ant
of the departments under his charge
There will be little chance o
inefficiency in this way. 1t vii
be up to the business manage
to explain things whenever asked
and also the heads Of the variou
departments Being responsible 70
these affairs, with no chance TO
shifting this responsibility to othe
shoulders, the work is bound to 90 a
1t should, and material used by tn
city will always be purchased wher
cheapest, saving city money.
Under the charter no one will b
able to either directly or indirectl
Toe interested in the profits of an
contract, work or services from tn
city, except official services. Tn
charter closes the door to inefficenc,
and if the voters Of the city have e>
amined it carefully, it is bound to r,
ceive a big majority of the votes cas-
at the election next week.
