City knows full well. Kvery taxpayer bere la aware of bow oom ulealon form of government baa run BP bla tax bills, and these bllla continue lo soar. ■Rcau.il a oci.raioN. The following, from tlir -ape Va\ Star and Wave, bin i .lion the bead, as loeal I people 4r m: ifj Ho far aa oar ot -- . t,s- n landed, the graatea* , t M many Illusions ottered to voters lor the cure of all municipal Ills la commission form of government. So far as It ha. been adopted In South Jersey appear aneaa are very deceptive If there Is a tingle Instance In wbleb tbe domluadug motive for proposlug It basuot been to oust a city government controlled by another faction. Tble Is at tbe bottom of all of tbe agitation there Is for It In this city. Tbe boasted efficiency which Is said to he attained In tbe management of city affairs by a commission can be reached with much leas expense by e I elty council, under tbe old plan, by I emijjByiDg proper execullvee (n this l ease there would be an opportunity I every yaar for tbe people to express I satisfaction or dlaaatlefactiuu at the t polls, whereas, uuder commission, It > would ba practically impossible to < make a change under four years. Tbe « moat eocouraglng thing In tbe recent I hINory of this city la tbe chaoge for < tbe better In tbe character of tbe city's I government, all acoompllsbed under i our old charter. So loog as people who should be lots rested in a city like a tble will take tbe trouble of exerting t tbemeetves for tbe purpose of remedy- t #!og oondltlooe, when this la oeeded, r there will be oo need of a change of J torn of government. If people will t not Interest themselves no form of h government will binder looters from a exploiting tbe elty for tbelr own bene- h •t If the letter class should win oou- tl tool under oommtaelon form, tbey h would have tbe city tied band and b toot for four years.
