MAYOR'S LETTER
Mayor Wall ha written the fol
lowing comiiiunii .-ilinn to llills-
loro's business men, w hich is si If
xplanatory :
Hillsboro, Ore., May 10, 1 !!!).
My Hear Sir:
The City is confronted with
the problem of securing a night
watchman. Ihe present olhcial
las resigned, but hus consented
to continue unul some arrange
ments can be made to fill the va
cancy. This vacancy can only
he filled by entering into an
igreement to pay a stipulated
salary out of the treasury of the
ity; in oilier words, the City is
unable to obtain a night watch
man upon the old basis of eoileet-
, i i .i
mg part ol ins salary irom uie
Hisines men. The principle of
this method is wrong, as the
night watchman is an arresting
olliet-r, and payment to him di
rect bv the business men is a
tribe. Thi condition should no
onger be tolerated. Arresting
tfiieers ought to be free to a -rest
myotic violating the laws ol Un
ity. This is He I f-c vide it t lo am-
la w -abiding citizen.
I think it cannot be disputed
that the services of a night wa'eh
man are rendered principally
the business interests in .safe
guarding their places of busMi ss
against burglary and fire; the
service. of a night watchman are
of some value to tin- residential
lislriet and lo lliat extent sic. , till
t.ay a portion of the salary, : nd
that enn conic out of the genc-a!
n-astiry, but the City Cot-mil
itlieve that in all fairness the
iiisiiiess interests of the city
hoitlil contribute not less than
one-hall ol lite salary oi uie
night watchman, as tltev are Ihe
hit f beneficiaries.
Therefore, litis method is
idnpled nf calling your alUnlinit
to tin: necessity ol entering into
in agreement with the City lo
pay .so much per iiumui lor one
vear to be collected by the chief
of police and turned into the city
treasury, and the salary of the
night watchman paid therefrom.
I'his will leave the night waleh-
man tree to act ic.ariessiv ami
onestlv in the enforcement of
lite law. No one should have
trings" on a public ollicial, and
the method suggested above i.s
for Ihe purpose of eliminating
this danger.
If the foregoing suggestion can
be carried out, then it is the ttr
pose of the City Council to em
ploy a policeman for day service
with the exception of a few hours
. . . i i -n i
in the morning wnen lie win ue
tssisting the street commissioner.
The night watchman will go on
duty about dark, and this method
is believed to result' in the en
forcement of the city ordinances
it a minimum expense to the city
jovernment.
The CJnef of Police will wait
.... , ..i.
upon vou wittun a nay or so run
the necessary contract to be sfgn-
1. in which vou will insert the
monthly payment you feel justi
lied in paving, and it will be .ol
lected each month by the I licit
f Police, duly receipted for and
. , . . ., ' . i j
nam into I lie ctrv treasury ami
there accounted for.
Yours sincerely.
