The council, for some reason, has dissatis- fied the people. The members of the civie body feel that they have wot been acquitting themselves worthily, and so they are willing that an ex- periment should be tried. They have ussumed the responsibility of seeking an expert whose advice they may be willing to take and whose administra tion of public affairs they are willing to trust. "From the brief summary of the re quirements for this office, we gather, says the Scientific American, ' that the applicant should be competent to oversee public work, such as paving, lighting, water supply, cte., that an engineer would be preferred; that he must state what has beed his previous experience in' municipal work; that he will have complete administrative con rol of the city, subject to the ap proval of a board of three elected commissionérs, and that he will holl office so long as he gives satisfaction to the commissioners; that his work will be purely that of an expert; and that he will be entirely free from po- litical control; fipally, although local conditions aud tradition will be taken into comsideration, local citizenship will gol be necessary.""

But it is not the first departure of the kind. The Whig cangot recall the place, and has not time now to search the records, but it does remem- Ler the story that appeared in one oi the magazines to the effect that in a town in a southern state, a man was "called from the outside" and given power to run the municipality as he liked. He was a man of capacity, a business man, and an engineer by pro- fission. He quickly brought order out of chaos. The council would not be dispoded of under the law, but it had only a nominal existence, and formal ly approved of all the formed. And 'well it might, when he carried efficiency and economy into every department, and gave the town a government such as it had never be- fore, charter posi- in manager per- Sumter, then, is not having a unique experience.

Lendon Adversary An unexpected turn has been giv- en to Irish legis'ation by the Brit- ish Governm-nt's decision to make the Irish Senate elective instead of: apoointive. The Irish nationalists would pre- fer an appointive house. but they have agreed to a couclliatory offer to tha Ulster minority and #s a re- sponsé'to the group of Protestant Irish peers who have accepted the home rule bill. Among these are the Earl of Dunraven, Lord Mac- dornell, and Lord Rossmore, the Istter at one time grand master of the Orange body.
