g . . **• sa.r f*srar. . the citizens of Ctme Mey wes Slf lu the CUy Hall Mil Monday si 10 o'clock I ; Ajfii H the purpfwe .i houfcg re].irt of the committee appointed soma three weeks ago to revise the present or draft a new Charter for the govern- _ I ment of the dty. The moling was ' presided over bv the chairman of the : Committee, Mr. Joseph Ware, and a copy of the proposed charter was submilled and read bv the clerk of the J committer, Mr. 1L - wain. The doca ument is perhaps longer than one pros- - eat Charter, bat ie less ccanUtord and . more rxplidt on several matters nf greet ! importanro to the interesu of the inZ habitants <fT the place. It alio ctAI bodies a number of ch.ttig-.- snuiuming : to an almost entire r.Yonstruelioo it • the municipal gnreAitaent. Accord's ing to the new charier the Major, who. 0 bcretrmirc, has bad tuUtb to do in the t-1 condncttnv of the aflkirs of the city. Is 0 reduced to a oompamUvely unimportant poislioa. Hith same amnunt of honor attached but with Iras etndlutnsota. He has no seat In the council, bat Isjeetod with tlte vcto^uennjrtive f Is elected for two years, and in case of c removal, nwignatran ordcath, Ibeofftce ' le filled by toe Mhior afdrrnun until c the annuai election. The new charter ' provides for two aldermen, who shall 1 be chosen st tlif election in ilsrcb next the one recriving the higbeet number of voles to serve for two yean, the next • highest for one year, so that one alderraon wiU be bervaft. ranouallr elected. The sMeniKn and mayor shall bars the eamajortsdictiou within (he limits Of the county as Just bee of the peace 1 now hare The office of Building lu- : specter Is mads a responsible one, and I its duties are clearly defined. At the ' election in March nine rnnncUmeo arw ' to be selected from the resident popu- ' latioo, the three receiving the highest " number of votrs to serve for three ' years, the three realising the next i highest to serve for two rears, and tlie • thru receiving the next hlgticst for one ! year. The council will annually elect " from among theraeelvcs a presiding c officer, and will alsu appoint a compe1 tent person for Ilrccnler for two ytars ' who shall he ex officio clerk of council. • The duties and powers of council are r exceedingly full ami occupy much of 1 ilie new charter. It provide* for tlu- » proper assessment on lands benefitted. 1 for the expenee of opening or widening I streets, curbing, paring or shelling the I same. Proptrtka are to die assessed ' after the roatmw protldrd bjr law In 1 the respective townships of the county. ■ The assessor la In be assisted In his 1 annual assessment by a competent and projsjrly qualified freeholder.— t Ample provision, If carried out. Is made , r fur the collection of lairs. Power is • given the Board of Appeal to make an r additional assessment on properties . I which may be reported to them st Insufficiently assessed, providing such ' statement Is known to bo true and ! cornea from trust- worthy end respond- ' ble freeholders. There ts also a much- ' qssdid provision embodied In tlui new 1 1 charter which will obviate much of the I ° which much of the >< R

n difficulty hitherto encountered In the * appropriation of private property used b >■ in the prosecution of public improve- - '■ menu. In regsrd to tlie Uccnse r question, it provide* tbat.every application u> keep an inn or tavern must , - be sicded by twelve frreholdrrs. whe i. k shall enter Into a Joint bond of WW d tor the fklthfnt obeervance of all the re's quiramenuofthe law by the applicant. - It shall also require a two-thirds vote h of the council to grant licenses, and the Jn earns vote has tils power to revoke or I IS annul licenses whicb may be granted. 'S No drinking saloon Is to be licensed I for more than one year or for a less y * amount than flrti. And no license „ l- can la transferred to any person or for I, any other house than is sprcilied in the t * application. The foregoing are only a t - fcw of ths most promlnsut features in d u the charter es submitted by the coois mlttec, but are sufficient to give an , e idea of lu general character and lm- ' d portanee. At the conclusion oT'lU * if reading, an effort was made to poet- | woe Its adoption by the citizens until It was soherqurotly considered aud I h soled an fay aectirtu. Tula, howassr, I * was defeated and a motion was made | It for its adoption aa a whole. AdlsMMi y was than ealbd for. which resulUsI lu a a two-thirds vote in favor of the ad op- j lion of the report. A committee, coostating of R B. Swain. Br. E.
