Tery enemy of economy and efficiency.
Both declared; that Seattle' charter fa
bn Its final trial, and that unleaa better
7 resting are attained the people will de-
? mnd, and properly, so, a commission
onn of government,
' Two years ago, when the ward lines
Wore Obliterated and a council of nine
tnemwora : at largro was substituted for
council men from each ward and one at
large, it waa hoped city affaire would
be conducted with greater dispatch and
economy and with better result. This
hnp hss not been reallsod. and many
clfltene believe th former ayetem
preferable to the present. Instead of
working together for the general good,
tha nine councllmea have engaged In
personal rampalgna and In. acrimonious
dispute. Some of Iho members have
espoused radical hobblea until th rou
tine of th municipality waa neglected
god each councilman rode his own. hobby
In an effort to promote personal ambl
tlon.
The occasion of the warning by the
mayor waa at the first gathering under
me praaeni auminiiirtuun 01 in aa
vlsory board, which Mayor Cotterlll haa
enlarged to Include heads of all depart
menta and the City council. The mayor
waa well pleased at tb . get-together
spirit manifested, and h told depart
ment heads that he will jcpect greater
efficiency from each- With efficiency
must go economy, he stated.
Unless there is marked efficiency
under th present administration, there
will ho a movement for the commission
form of government before tba next
city election. .

20.60X.OO0 horsea and 4,32,000 mules In
