A general im- pression existed at that time that all city governments were bad. One writer declared shat municipal govern- -ment was the greatest failure of the age. To speak of the conditions as we found them in our city is to speak of the condition of all cities of our size. ‘T am glad to say, however, that when we investigated we did not find everything bad. We found a few good qualities, a few honest men and some good laws, but all these were in the minority. ‘We found an accumula- tion of laws, but as soon as anything new was wanted, a new law was passed, in order that some scheme might be put through. The law, spirit and system were bad and the ad- ministration was in the handa. of the oflsmen. We found all these con- SRR A S B R ) et lotefodote 4+H—!+l—!—l'4-l—l—l:xi—FH Aol d tions and we decided that the city needed new laws and new people in official life, to give the people the law as provided by the constitution and honest men to administer it." Mr. Dohrmann then traced the birth of the new charter and explained its cardinal points, the chief of which were the right of the city to rule it- self, civil service reform, the merit P{slem and economical government. e explained the working of the char- ter, how it provided for legislation, taxation and revenue, took care of public works, streets, sewers, lighting, t P 1 water supply and transportation and i : the adornment of the city. The charter provided for police and fire protection, better school facilities, sanitation and health regulations and the support of the aged, disabled and poor. Mr. Dohrmann then explained the benefits that had accrued to the city the yvear in which the charter had been’in force. The men in office were responsible, the system of administra- tlon was economical and the subordi- nates were efficient. No ring existed in the city government, and the spolls system was a thing of the pas dishonest contracts were made, a mas terial saving was found in the gas and F. W.

The sacred edi- fice was crowded to the doors and the occasion of the installation was marked with extreme solemnity. A carefully prepared musical programme was rendered by a large choir and the interior of the church was decorated with evergreens. After the opening voluntary on the organ and the singing of a hymn by the choir, Rev. Charles H. Cook read the scriptural selections. The Rev. George W.-Stone delivered a _short sermon on “The Modern Pulpit” and the Rev. A. J. Wells offered up the i prayer of installation. | The Rev. F. L. Hosmer delivered the | charge to the new pastor and a dis- course on the hand of fellowship was made by the Rev. George R. Dodson. The Rev.
