Let us therefore have one general election, and no lapping of terms of office one upon another. In the next place, this general election must by all means be held in the spring, e a8 to eeparate it as far as possible from the State and national elections in November, Of course, the nominations will be made by par- ties based on State and national politics, but the fervor of party spirit kindled by an ex- citing contest on great political issues will be wanting, and the people will make their choice more calinly, The consideration of this faet will compel both parties to put up their Lest candidates, and there will be more chance for splits and combinations, by tho aid of which to defeat rogues and elcet honest and capable men. The merits of each candidate, too, will be more carefully weighed than they can be in the hurly-burly of a No- vember election, If these two points are not to be secured, there will bo little use in tinkering the char. ter in other respects. If our city govern. ment is not to be compelled to come before our citizens for judgment as a body, at fre- quent intervals, it is in vain to enlarge or re- strict the powers of this or that individual official. Rings will continue to be formed and maintained, and it will be impossible to shake off their grip. And if our city and county officers are to continue to be elected as they now are, under cover of exciting State and national issuce, the struggle against the trickery of primary meetings and the adroit manipulation of party machinery will be a hopeless one, Will Sheriff O'Brien and Taxpayer TWEED take care that the new charter is sound on these two points? ister Ilow to Reconcile the Democracy The warring factions of the New York Democracy may be reconciled and united once more, Let Democrats of all shades, young and old, rich and poor, rough Democrats and silk stocking Democrats, go in for an honest, pop: ular, demoeratic charter for this city—a char- ter with elections in the spring; with no man holding more than one office; with a Board of Aldermen élected by general ticket; no Board of Supervisors; no Commissions, the Central Park; departments responsible to the Mavor; fair selaries and no stealings ; of the Democracy can once more come to- gether and smoke the pipe of peace, and not be afraid of the future, Then give us a law that will secure honest elections and hou counting of the votes, and let the Legisla- ture go home. And after that the traitors who sold out the Democratic party to Henny Ssrrn and B. F. Manrenne on Tuesday last can be taken up and punished as their vil- lany merits, We commend this plan to Taxpayer TWEED, to the Hon, Prver Bann Sweeny, to Sheriff O'Brien, Mienare tne Trun.
