The Governor, in a special message, communicated to the Legislature May 22, 1875, called attention to the evils of our municipal systems, and the necessity of adopting a permanent and uniform plan for the government of the cities of the State, and recommended the appointment of a commission to consider the subject. On the same day a concurrent resolution was introduced in the Senate and adopted by the Senate and Assembly, which was in these words: "Whereas, The Governor, in his special message of May eleventh, eighteen hundred and seventy-five, called the attention of the Legislature to the evils arising from our unstable municipal systems, and the necessity of adopting a permanent and uniform plan for the government of the cities of the State; therefore "Resolved (if the Assembly concur). That the Governor be, and I hereby is, authorized to appoint a commission of not more than twelve persons, whose duty it shall be to consider the subject referred to in said message, to devise a plan for the government of cities, and to report the same to the next Legislature. "Resolved, That the Committee on Ways and Means report a of suitable appropriation to defray the actual expenses of the commission, to be audited by the Comptroller, provided that the commission shall receive no compensation for their services. Twelve persons were appointed by the Governor under the above resolution, all of whom except President Martin B. Anderson, of Rochester, accepted the duty thus devolved upon them. The commission organized immediately after their appointment, and the first meeting was held on the fifteenth day of December, 1875. Mr. William M. Evarts was chosen president of the commission.
