intelligent results from expenditure of public
money and time. it is possible that they served this
purpose but the politician found way thru ap-
ponment other to get control of the commits
sions The result and has been for long time
only so additional political machinery, operating
regard to the public welfare and for individual
satisfaction only might he helpful the MEM
bers of these commissions men who have the ability
and especially the high class business
which they are At present the only redeemng fea-
ture of the numerous commission government in Della
is that people have been brought to realize that
the system under which Delaware is now operating, is
inefficient in practical results, and for waste of
pubic money There is head to hold these various
commissions to 1t to introduce fad which
grow into expensive practices for the public treasury to
pay for people in this era of reconstruction want
and demand practical business management be sub
suted for the irresponsible system under which Della
ware now exists If the next session Of the legislature
should do nothing than TO correct this evil
will have accomplished real reform.
