Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Reform Movements in the United States There are very few municipalities iri our country where a reform movement would have no reason for existence. Too often, however, the mention of a reform movement conveys the idea of destruction, an immense amount of tearing down, so that it has come to pass that the so - called practical reformer is almost as much dreaded as the practical politician. On the other hand, it is true that many a reform must tear down, in order that the ground may be prepared for the superstructure of improved conditions; but it is also a fact that certain re forms, destined to accomplish permanent results, are expend ing their utmost energies on the constructive phases of their work. To illustrate concretely: the recent action of the Lon don County Council in insuring the lives of all the workmen who are engaged in the dangerous parts of the work of con structing the tunnel under the Thames is a reform in the right direction, and there are organizations that are striving to se cure an increasing regard for the claims of life, in preference to those of property. The differences in the two phases of re form may again be illustrated by the work of the Society for the Prevention of Crime and of the City Vigilance League, the efforts of the former being along destructive and of the latter along constructive lines.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Special Committee of the National Civil-Service Reform League: Upon the Present Condition of the Reform Movement and the Relations to It of the National, State, and Municipal Administrations; March 16, 1887 This was defeated by a vote of 67 to 30. Unfortunately party lines were drawn upon the question, the negative vote being cast exclusively by the Democratic members and the affirmative, with three exceptions, exclusively by the Republicans. But despite such efforts there is no doubt whatever that the present condition of the reformed system in state and municipal governments, so far as it has been introduced, is most gratifying and satisfactory. It has fully vindicated its value and practicability and justifies the warmest anticipations of its advocates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from City Government in the United States: With a Chapter on the Greater New York Charter I proposed to write a primer, as it were, of the science of city government. I wish to set citizens to thinking. Let them work out their own municipal destiny in the light of common sense and modem science. There is, so far as I know, not one popular book in the English language on municipal government. Maurice Block's Paris: Organisation Municipale is a very entertaining book, written in a dialogue form, which enables any French child to understand the government of the beautiful French capital. English and American writers have discussed in book form every phase of political science except popular municipal government. This omission does not wholly account for the faults of city government in the United States; but, if intelligent men had studied in text-books the science of city government as they learn the principles of political economy in high schools and colleges, it is not too much to say that our cities would be better ruled. It is said that "comparisons are odious," but every well-informed person must admit that in comparing American cities with those of the Old World we suffer by the comparison.

This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from State and Municipal Government in the United States In spite of the importance and interest of international and national questions of policy and in spite of the rapidly widening sphere of federal legislation and administration the life of an American citizen is affected more often by the agencies of local government than by those of the national government. Under the protection of the Federal Constitution the life and property of the citizen are governed and protected by state, not federal, laws. In his political capacity the citizen takes part in both the federal and the local government in accordance with state regulations. Acting under the state laws are the particular political units in which the citizen may reside - the county, city, or town. T o the authorities of these the citizen most fre quently looks for governmental support and regulation. Yet these local bodies are distinctly subordinate to and created by the authority of the state and are supervised and regulated by it. It is the purpose of this book to discuss the organization, the distribution of powers and functions, and the operation of these agencies of local government. Other books have dealt with state government and state administration or with munici pal government and municipal administration, but this book covers both state and municipal government, treating the two as a single manifestation of local government. With this in mind the book has been divided into five parts. In Part I the federal system and the state constitutions as the fundamental basis of local government are discussed. Part 11 deals with the political system - the electorate in theory and in action, in primaries, in election campaigns, and in its direct action in the use of the initiative, referendum, and recall. Part III deals with state government - the different organs and the functions which these organs perform. State administration, which is rapidly being extended both directly and through the supervisory power of the state, is discussed in its various manifestations.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Home Rule: A Study in Administration The unsatisfactory character of American municipal government has, within the past few years, drawn unusual attention to the problems which it presents, and which, on account of the recent extraordinary development of municipal life, are becoming at the same time more numerous and more important. But as a result of the intimate connection of municipal with general government, all concrete attempts at municipal reform must of necessity depend upon an accurate delimitation of the sphere of action, which can, with due regard to the interests of the state as a whole, be assigned to our municipal organizations. The attempt to delimit such a sphere of action is the purpose of this little work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Mira Lloyd Dock and the Progressive Era Conservation Movement written by Susan Rimby and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For her time, Mira Lloyd Dock was an exceptional woman: a university-trained botanist, lecturer, women’s club leader, activist in the City Beautiful movement, and public official—the first woman to be appointed to Pennsylvania’s state government. In her twelve years on the Pennsylvania Forest Commission, she allied with the likes of J. T. Rothrock, Gifford Pinchot, and Dietrich Brandis to help bring about a new era in American forestry. She was also an integral force in founding and fostering the Pennsylvania State Forest Academy in Mont Alto, which produced generations of Pennsylvania foresters before becoming Penn State's Mont Alto campus. Though much has been written about her male counterparts, Mira Lloyd Dock and the Progressive Era Conservation Movement is the first book dedicated to Mira Lloyd Dock and her work. Susan Rimby weaves these layers of Dock’s story together with the greater historical context of the era to create a vivid and accessible picture of Progressive Era conservation in the eastern United States and Dock’s important role and legacy in that movement.
