COMISSION PLAN OF
GOVERNMENT.
(9y i. P. Hornadsy.)
Serlea of jnrtlclee prepared by
Mr. J. ; H. i Hornaday, -Associate
Editor et TTctf Birmingham News,
especially toi The Evening Times.
These, articles, eleven. In number,
will coVer every phase of . the
Commission yian of Government
for cities, Mr. Hornnday. having
studied this Question in the cities
having this 'kind of government.
In adopting the commission form
of government and adding to the
system some features peculiarly their
own, the people of Des Moines, Iowa,
had no idea of setting up a plan that
would become widely recognized as
the model" method of municipal
management. They sought merely to
escape ring rule and to devise some
scheme by which the taxpayers would
receive adequate returns upon the
money paid into the city treasury.
No city was ever more thoroughly
dominated by ring influences than
was Des Moines, nor did any city ever
witness a more open exhibition of
graft than was presented by the offi
cials of that community. Aldermen
frankly used their official position to
promote the interests of their private
fortune and to insure their places at
the public crib. Public service cor
porations contracted with members of
the board when improvements were
to be made and were also wise
enough to buy their supplies through
the same source in many instances.
A community of interests between
the aldermen and the public service
corporation was built up that abso
lutely controlled the policies of the
city. A sure method of securing a
position with a corporation was to
get the endorsement of some leader
of the city, and a sure way to lose
that place was to fail to vote as the
ring desired. .
One cannot but admire the bold
ness with which tiie'ring carried on
its operations, or the tremendous
vigor with which it fought when the
people attempted to install the com
mission system and thus come into
their own. Every obstacle that could
be thrown in the way was cheerfully
put in place, and when the people
won after what was perhaps the most
spectacular fight in the history of the
community, the contest was carried
into the courts.- It did not end until
the court of last resort was reached,
and no sooner was the old crowd fi
nally and completely routed than it
turned its attention. to the new plan
and attempted to gain control. It
died hard, and its last gasp was heard
only a few months ago.
Galveston's experience with the
'commission plan- pointed the way for
Des Moines. James G. Berryhill, a
prominent and wealthy lawyer of the
Iowa capital, was a frequent visitor
to Galveston, where he had property
interests which brought him in inti
mate contact with the municipal gov
ernment. He noted the success of
the Galveston plan and began to agi
tate the subject ' in his home city,
slowly - but surely building up a sen
timent id favor of the change. About
the same time other friends of good
government began to agitate what is
known as the '.'Indianapolis plan,"
and the result was, a sharp division
among the, good government forces;
a division that was fostered with
great skill by the machine element.
As the affairs of the city became
more and more involved and graf;
became more wanton, the advocates
of a change in the form of govern
ment began to recognize the necessity
of coming together, and negotiations
looking to this end were opened.
This clmlnated in an agreement be
tween the advocates of the Galveston
and Indianapolis plans to hold a mass
meeting and to submit the issue
thereat. When the meeting was
held it brought together a great
throng of good . government advo
cates -and they heard the commission
theory expounded by Mr. Berryhill,
while another local speaker of abil
ity presented the .Indianapolis plan
At the conclusion of the debate, a
vote was taken and the meeting went
on record in favor of commission gov
ernment. Thereupon the forces join
ed hands and fought the issue to a
successful conclusion.
When, after many months of war
ring, the voters had declared their
choice and the validity of the charter
had been sustained by the supreme
court, the advocates of the commis
sion plan became alarmed lest the ef
forts of the "ring" to gain cointrol of
the municipal machinery in its re'
constructed- fofln should prove suc
cessful. To aveVt this calamity they
held several conferences 'and finally
decided to put a commission ticket in
the field this against the advice of
qulteyi number of leaders, . among
themnfoeing Mr, Berryhill.
The ticket of the codmissioii forces
was composed bf five of the most, rep
resentatlve citizens of Des Moines;
men whose character, was unquestion
ed and who had made a record for
businses ability in the conduct of
their private affairs.
When the ticket was announced
the leaders of the old regime raised
the cry of "Down with the slate," and
f hereafter contented themselves with
matting war -upon it. in ine mean
time quite 'a (jLy-nbarj of,cJtizen en
tered the race, Independent of the
.commission ticket, and the cry of the
old ring forces was' taken up by the
followers of these gentlemen. In the
primary election every member of
the so-called "slate" secured a suffi
cient number of votes to get a place
on the 'ticket In the final and decisive
cop test, but the fight, was carried on
with renewed vigor , and- a general
feeling of resentment" -was - created
against the "slate.'-..'This feeling
grew' in Intensity with the approach
of the final ballot and when the votes
were counted it was found that not
one candidate : of the commission
forces had been successful.
This created a feeling . of the ut
most, gloom among the advocates of
good government, who felt that their
labors had been wasted, bat experi
ence proved they had builded better
than they knew; that, they had erect
ed a system of government that was
bigger than the individual.; '
At the same time the old "ring"
was jubilant. The theory bf the re
form element that the "gang" was
on top was shared by the gang Itself,
and there was a joyous celebration
It did not last, however, . for time
proved that the victory was not to
the "gang" any more than it had
been to the "reformers." The people
had triumphed, and from that day
to this they remain in the Saddle.
The man elected to the office of
mayor was A. J. Mathis, who received
the solid support of the. J'ring" and
the liberal element. It was thought
that he would stand for a J'wlde open
town" just as the old crowd had, but
there was disappointment here, as in
all other expectations of the old
crowd. The mayor and tommission-
ers gave to- Des Moines tlje best gov;
ernment it had ever, known a gov
ernment so efficient and' so full of
actual benefits to the tax payers and
people generally that the attention
of the entire country was attracted
to Des Moines and the - plan under
which it operates became known far
and wide as "the model." During
the two years of this administration
crime was reduced to a greater ex
tent than during the fifty years pre
ceding, a result due to the establish
ment of a police department whose
functions is to prevent lawlessness
rather than play the interesting game
of politics. More streets were built
than during the previous ten years
and a total of $169,000 was saved by
the inauguration of economies in the
various departments.
Under the old system the streets
of DesMoines were cleaned "once in a
while." Citizens could not remember
when the alleys had been cleaned.
Now Des Moines Is one of the cleanest
town sin the country, and, moreover.
It Is becoming one: of ,tbe: most beau
tiful.: :
It was a rude shock to the follow
ers of the old machine when they dis
covered that the defeat of the com
mission slate did not mean a victory
for them, and when the second elec
tion came about last spring they got
busy and put out a "slate" of.. their'
own. They induced the mayor, Mr.
Mathis, to head this slate, and, with
a congenial group for the office of
commissioner, they entered the fight
ambitious to regain control. Again
the cry, "Down with the slate" was
raised, and once more it went down,
carrying Mayor Mathis with it. The
people were again on top. ,
The present mayor is James R.
Hanna, a college professor, and his
associates are Zell G- Roe, J. We3ley
Ash, Charles W. Schramm and John
Mac Vicar. Hanna and MacVicar are
widely known as students of munici
pal government, the latter having
been secretary of the League Of
American .Municipalities for a num
ber of years. Ash is an ex-coal min
er, while Koe ana senramm are
'plain business men." A more
homogeneous body might be found,
but it is extremely doubtful if any
board could give a more thorough
exemplification of how a city should
be run. ;.; v-
Though Des Moines is as strong
republican as the average southern
city' is democratic, the first mayor
was a democrat- Under the double
election system of Des Moines parti
sanship is absolutely eliminated .from
municipal contests. " ' ,
Last year Des Moines was third
among cities of its class in point of
building activity. Here, as in the'
Texas cities, public confidence in the
Integrity and progressiveness of the
business ystem of governmentn is re
flected in the increased activity no
ticeable in all lines of endeavor.
Forty-three business structures, cost
ing from 10,000 to $200,000, were
erected during the year, and 600
homes were put up, ranging In value
from $1,000 to $40,000. The total
exceeded $3,000,000. The claim is
made that all of these houses were
occupied as yoon as completed and
that the growth of the city was never
so marked. :.

Plan" will be described in the next

Press Comment.
' j Youthful Farmers. ' . .
-The state' farmers' convention which
has been In session at Raleigh this
week, adjourned Friday. Two of the
most interesting events of the cofiven-1
tlon took place Thursday, when Char
les Phillips, of Randolph county, and
Lee Blackwell, of Granville county,
the champion boy corn growers of the
state, appeared before the convention
and told how they won the prizes last
year. : Phillips Is a sixteen year, old
knee pants boy, and he modestly told
how by himself' he procured a yield
of 134 bushels of corn from ' one acre
of ground, thereby winning the cham
pionship for boys In the state, and
getting second prize for the south
Blackwell Is only about fourteen years
old, weighed 76 pounds last year and
produced 7644 bushels of corn and 2,000
pounds of fodder from one acre. The
coming little farmers were given a
warm reception by the convention.

"The Cant of the Demagogues."
That court was constituted to pre
serve the rghts of the people and the
rights of the individuals against the
people themselves whether aberration
they enacted measures which deprived
the individual of his just rights under
the constitution. Hence it is that to
me, a lawyer, the supreme court of the
United States is the most sacred
thing that we have In this govern
ment, that the appointment of men to
that bench is the highest-frnd most
sacred function that the executive has
to perform."
President Tuft uttered these words
at St. Louis May 4 in a reply to Mr.
Bryan's attack upon two newly ap
pointed justices of the United States
supreme court, Judge Lurton and Gov.
Hughes. It was the president s pro
test against "the cant of -the dema
gogues, as he called it, m assailing
Justices of the supreme court for al
leged prejudice in favor of corporate
wealth or greed or monopoly, when
no such prejudice existed.
If Mr. Taft believed it to be his duty
as chief magistrate of the nation to
defend the United States supreme
court from Mr, Bryan's criticisms, in
how much greater measure is it his
duty to defend the court from Mr.
Roosevelt's wanton attack! Mr. Bryan
speaks only as a repudiated party
leader who has been defeated three
times for the presidency. Mr. Roose
velt speaks as a former president of
the United States and his words are
backed by all the prestige of that
great office. He speaks, moreover, as
a former president who is obviously a
candidate for re-election and who js
trying to lift himself Into office again
by pulling the supreme court down.
Nobody knows better than Mr. 'latt
that Mr, Roosevelt in railing at "fos
silized" Judges garbled the decisions
that he criticised and misrepresented
the attitude of the court.
Nobody knows better than Mr. Taft
that Mr. Roosevelt s utterances were
cunningly calculated to inflame, the
minds and arouse the prejudice of hun
dreds of thousands of voters who are
without means of knowing what these
eases really were and what the court
really decided.
Nobody knows better than Mr. Tart
that Mr. Roosevelt's criticism, car
ried W Its logical conclusion, would
mean the overthrow of the judiciary
and a revolution in America consti
tutional government. '
Nobodv knows better than Mr. Taft
that Mr. , Roosevelt's attack upon the
court strengthens the hands of all the
socialist and anarchistic elements of
the country. As the New York Call,
the organ' of the socialist party In
New York, says: "This attack oi
Roosevelt upon the supreme court
shows further that we socialists have
been lamentably weak where we should
have been bodily leading and pointing
the way to those more backward."
No sense of fancied loyalty to The
odore Roosevelt can obscure Mr. Taft'B
duty.- He Is one man who can speak
with authority; for he is a great law
yer, he has oeen a great juugi- ami
he Is president of the United States.
What he says he will be read by every
body. What he says "about the su
preme court will command public re
spect and confidence. If "the cant of
the demagogue" was dangerous to
