idea of this new plan is the appli
cation to municipal affairs of the
practices of every day business. In
stead of a city council, meeting once
a week, composed of men who de
vote most of their time and energy
to other interests, there is n com
mission of five men who are paid
$3000 n year ench and required to
devote nil their time to tho
affairs.

When tho commission form of
