NOT BE COMSIDCREO.
Stirred by tho racont roboerieo and

the citizen live, Mayer Brownell, late
Wednesday afternoon, decided to safe
guard the live and eraeerty of thee
residents by appoTntlna; ti "pjlKUmmn
t do night duty,thr. Wsiio i
his election the Mayor faa worked for
the appointment of a policeman far
that part of tho city, taut certain mem
bers of tho City Council have appesad
auch action because of the additional
expenae it would Involve, ft le bo-
I loved now, however, that ovory mem
ber i In accord with the Mayor, and
tho appointment of Policeman Fro
will bo approved by th board. ,
Mrs. J. M.'. Volkmar, wife of the
druggist, surprised . a burglar, who
waa tryln" to enter a window of Tasar
home, on Madison street Monday eve-'
ning. and Dr. C. A. Stuart, who Uvea
at 302 Washington street, waa aroused , .
by housebreakers the cam night A
young woman H halted by a high
wayman at th head of the Seventh
street stairs at dusk th --na day.
A few night before thievea entered
the atore of Whiter Littl oa Seventh
street
Jack: Frost, who waa appointed by
th Mayor, haa - been a substitute
policeman In the city for several
years, and Is regarded aa a very cape-
ble man. He began work at once.
People Must Be Protested.
"Outrages of this character muat
come to aa end," said the Mayor Im
mediately after making the appoint
ment "A question of money, revenue .
or expense moat not be considered for
a moment when it comes to protecting
the lives and property of th people
of the community. The peopl Uv
Ing above the bluff are residents of
the city, tbey are taxpayers and are
entitled to the earn protection as
the residents below and Main street
property. The facta ar that two
thirds of our population live above
the bluff, and have bad no police pro
tection whatever."
Mayor Brownell after appointing
and swearing in Mr. frost said that
the appointment waa permanent, sub
ject to the action of the City Coun
cil, and tbat If It refused to confirm
It he would renew the appointment
every flve daya.
Almost Self-Sustaining.
"But I am satisfied." continued the
Mayor, "when the members of the
City Council consider that under the
administration of Chief of Police
Shaw, the police department haa been
nearly self-sustaining from the Col
lection of fines and licenses that wr
not collected to tho aame extent here
tofore the council will be tn favor
of giving the peopl adequate pollc
protection."
WTtile the Mayor has no desire to
do anything contrary to the wishes
of the City Council, and does not ex
pect to be compelled to do' so, he
has fully determined that th hill
section of the city shall have police V,
protection at night and will do all
In his power to grant It. II realizes
tbat the residents of that section are
at the mercy of housebreakers, and
murderers like those who killed the
Hill and Cobl families.
