Excerpt from Commission Government in American Cities The various commission forms of government, says Dr. Eliot, are the most promising experiments which the last ten years have seen in the direction in which good citizens want to advance. The reasons for the promise contained in these experiments may be found in a study of the results of operation in the commission cities, and analysis of the principles underlying this type of municipal government.

Excerpt from Commission Government With a City Manager In December, 1910, the board of trade at Lockport, N. Y., grew weary of the way municipal affairs in that town were being run under the familiar mayor-and council plan of organization. Like hundreds of other such bodies, they turned almost instinctively to com mission government. But there was no Optional law on the statute books at that time which they could adopt by the simple expedient of filing a petition with the city clerk and holding a special election.

Excerpt from Cyclopedia of American Government, Vol. 1: Abattoirs-Finality In addition to political theory, thus practically treated, the volumes c'ontain dis eussions of the principles: of international law, constitutional law, party organization and action, and they present in brief form the most significant and fundamental principles of economic theory. The work is intended to be practical, to describe with concreteness and directness what government actually is and does; but the editors believe that wherever possible, and it generally is possible, an article should be approached from the side of principle, and not written as if an institution or a form of government were an absolute and detached abstract fact. As a basis for an understanding of existing government, and because the term government, as here used, includes the actual operation of political machinery, considerable space is given to constitutional, political, and party history. The principles of international law are supported by numerous articles on the history of American international relations.

Excerpt from The Emancipation of the American City Since James Bryce recorded it as his opinion a generation ago, that the government Of cit ies is the one conspicuous failure of the United States, a veritable revolution has been under way in American municipal government. It is not yet completed, but it has been so wide spread in its influence and results as to make it clear that what was unhappily true when Mr. Bryce wrote, cannot in truth be said today.
