SHAlf S RETENTION URGED BY PEOPLE
(Continued from page 1.1
Daring the present year the town
has been well governed. Nowhere Is
this snore emphasised than In the no
lle department, which has been a
revenue-producer. in the eleven
months ending December 1 the city
has received from fines and ball for
feltnres more than 11,400, which ex
ceeds the salary of the Chief of Po
lice. The people of Oregon City arc
probably not familiar with thla branch
of the municipality's finances, bat to
City Recorder's books show that dur
ing the twelve months of 1110 the to
tal revenue from the polio depart
mnt waa $350.60.
. It has been whispered that the "free
and eajr" population of ths town ar
looking forward to what Is commonly
known as a ,,wlde-ope" town, and
that wires have already been laid for
games, slot machine and all of tae
ether money-getting device that
nourlsned In OregoL City In yean
gfJtie by.
The check-rein. Loweverv to these
proepecu. will pro-vably be found In
th city cmncll, which will no doubt
be opposed to a change In the present
admlnlntraMve policy, so far as It re
late to the pleasure that are derived
after the day light hours. The Enter
prise hat even been Informed that Ave
of the nine councilman have agreed
to refuse to- hnrm the nomination
of Mr. Bums aa Chlf of Police, should
his name be sent to the council, and
that these same five coiincllmen are
unanimous In their opinion that Chief
Bhaw should be retained.
Chief Bhaw feels bis position keen
ly. For seventeen years he braved all
sorts of danger In long night shifts,
and obtained his sleep when other
people were np snd abroad. He made
such a fine record on the night force,
Oiat Mayor Brownell offered htm a
place as Chief, and Shaw took It only
after earnest solicitation on the part
of Mr. Brownell and certain of the
law-loving people of the community.
He has made good and he knows It.
The Enterprise wishes thst Mayor
elect Dtmlck would do himself the
Justice to speak out and forever set
at rest the ugly rumors that have
been placed In circulation relative to
the executive attitude In the new administration.
