The Municipal League

THE Municipal League is in the field as a political party. The aim of the League is to give to municipalities honest business administrations, and elect men to office irrespective of political party affiliations. The great danger thus far is, so far as our observation has gone, the League is playing into the hands of the leaders in the present day politico-religious movements. And it has been demonstrated that the reform city councils have proved to be as corrupt as the old party men. The fact is, true reform must begin in the heart, and neither law nor politics can transform the heart.
