Now an honest man was Bill
and honest was Jim McNabb,.
R,,+ Rill was blunt and plain OF front
while Jim had the gift O. gab;'
Jim stuck to the truth in important
things, but he sugared-his talk

But Bill McGann had a strtcter plan
which is why I am writing

The two of them loved the self-sarpe

But Bill foil short when he went to

For Jim McNabb, with the gift o. CAB,

He promised her things like diamond
rings if only she'd am the

He promised her furs FOR her pretty
neck. and dresses Of silk and
He vowed as his wife she could live
her life as a lady of ease and
grace,
A mansion of stone and a car Of her
own, he pledged to the lady fair,
Which both of them knew that he
never could do, but little they
seemed to care.

Now Bill McGann was a truthful
man., and never the truth he'd
shirk:
IF you'll share my life as my gentle
wife, there are times that you'll

Now pretty Kate is Mrs. McNabb and

ingfy he listed the city manager bill

ingly he listed the city manager bill
with tho rest.
There is some confusion In the
minds Of many Of u people with
reference to this city manager plan.
Most states have laws providing for
the commission form Of government.
In. some Of these is included provision
for the employment Of = city manager.
this official to take charge of all the
administrative, work Of the city. sub
ject only to the general regulations
made by the representative body. In
such cases It 9 expected that the city
manager shall he a thoroughly train
ed and competent man. that he shall
devote his entire time to the work of
the city, and that ne shall be paid a
salary commensurate with his ability
and the importance of his position.
Because the commission form Of
government and the city manager fire.
Quently go together and are so often
coupled in discussions Of city govern
ment, the impression has arisen in
the minds OF many people in Grand
Forks that the adoption Of the city
commission form Of government r.
ries with it the adoption of the city
manager plan. 1t does not. The city
commission law makes no provision
for a city manager, and the adoption
Of the commission plan has nc bearing
whatever on the employment Of a city
manager.
Under the Whitman law, all cities,
whether operating under the mayor
and council plan or the commission
plan, are empowered to employ city
managers. The procedure is the same
in all cases. First there must be 4
petition signed by rs per cent Of the
voters asking for the submission of
the proposition to a vote of the people,
and this must be done at an election
held for that purpose. Then II four
sevenths Of the persons voting declare
IN favor of the plan, the council. or
commission. as the case may be, may
engage a city manager.
Those to whom the city manager
plan is attractive should understand
that the adoption Of the commission
form will bring them no/nearer the
realization Of their wish, and that they
must still have their desired plan
submitted to the voters and approved
BY four-sevenths Of the persons vot-
ing. They should understand. fur
ther, that the adoption of the commits

Of government as under, any other.
