The discussion of the ward system ln'
the City Council on Thursday night was
marked by such coarsencss of language
on the part- oi some members as of itself
might be thought to furnish an argument l
for the change. The ward system has
given us a number of civic representatives
who are neither self-respecting, respect-
ful of the proprieties of debate, nor of the S
characters of their fellow members. By `
argument against the system' which theyff
uphold. And, as it is abundantly clear *‘
that at least two or three oi their number `
could never obtain seats at the Council `
Board by the votes of the united electorate i
ct the City, we can readily understand .l
why they cling to the existing order oi 
things. _
