The detectives claim that they are doing the best they can with a short force and handicapped by a poor sys tem, wrong policy and lack of coopera tion with the chief and patrolmen. "The patrolmen insist that they cannot protect their beats and work long hours to cover the territory assigned them, and If a Crime is committed it is no to their homes fitter the encampment lie through, but the duration of the en campment Is problematical.

If by any possi bility this should be the case, and the chief is a mere figurehead to keep In tact an unscrupulous political machine, his plain duty as an honest man Is to resign, rather than by official acquies cence become practically an accomplice to. law breaking. If he has full swing to throttle wrongdoing, and the present condition Is a criterion of his work, his administration is a dlBmal failure up to this time. "Chief Hunt is undoubtedly doing the best he can and the Integrity of his In tentions has not been assailed. He may be as good a chief as Portland ever had, and Is probably of average ability when compared with police officials in other places of this slse. This fact, however, doe not afford the protection to the people of Portland and other towns that they are entitled to from the guardian of the law, nor supply the service for which they pay. I,ooal Folio Methods Childish. The methods of your police ln their efforts to apprehend offenders are In fantile, desultory, and lack vim and practical knowledge. With a man who understood his business at the head of the department it would be a rare ex ception when the perpetrator of a crime escaped. As an Illustration of the lack of comprehension of the action to be taken ln case of crime Is the Sellwood cor robbery, and I imagine the same bungling methods apply to every case. Chief Hunt had, I understand, gone home to bed and did not know of the holdup until 10 hours later. Captain of De tectives Simmons, when notified, rushed to the east approach of the Morrison- Street bridge and loitered about for two or three hours, waitjng for the robbers to come along and Introduce themselves. Some of the other detectives and patrol men went to the scene of the robbery and looked wise. The next day nothing was -done twt waltfor the victims to come to the station and give descrip tions of property lost and other Informa tion. They did not come to headquar ters, neither did the bold highwaymen. and the case was reported as being mys terious and hopeless. Th Proper Investigation. Tf the force were properly organized and had a right understanding of their duty, when the report of a robbery and snooting come in the officer In charge should have notified the chief and pend ing his arrival got busy ln many ways. Without a moment's unnecessary delay as many of the force as were deemed necessary, all of whom should b In touch with the telephone, should have been in structed to cover bridges, roads, outgoing trains or boats without delay. Men should have been sent out to find the people on the car, get a description of the property lost, a description of the robbers, and other information of im portance. Every train crew leaving after the robbery notified to look out for sus picious passengers. The officers of near by towns all notified to be on the look out and as' an incentive for vigilance the offering of a reward at once. "By using Judgment in the, sending out and Instructing of the men and getting reports as matters progressed in 12 or 15 hours after the robbery good descrip tions of the- robbers, the character of the Jewelry and number of the watches could have been sent broadcast in a cir cular and to the urgent sections by wire. Men should have been detailed to scour the haunts of crime and lodging houses, and whenever a man whose identity was in doubt was found make it their busi ness to find out all about him without delay, and if his conduct was suspicious take him to the station and Investigate later. In a short time the city could have been combed for offenders in a thorough manner.

A plan has been sugested whldh may bo considered by the board, but which by some is not considered feasible. This is to have the various companies march to tho place of encampment and thus save the cost of rail) transportation. There are admitted to be om com panies too far removed from a suitable place of encampment to make the "hike" but these. It 1 urged, could be brought by rail to a point within marching dis tance. At the conclusion of the encamp ment the soldiers could either b taken to their homes on the train or march back, if the distance was not too great Besides affording the militiamen actual field experience it is clamed this plan would save enough from th cost of transportation to insur th complete success of the 'encampment "We have none of us made up our minds yet regarding what will be recommended," said General Gantenbein this morning. "It is a matter of much Importance and not until we get to gether and discuss the means and prob able cost will we be able to arrive at a definite conclusion. If the original plan had carried and th Oregon, Washington and Idaho- guardsmen could have met with the regular army at American Lake, the benefit to th guard wonld have been Inestimable, but the announcement made by the Secretary of War that funds were too low to permit of this Idea being carried into effect during the present year, has rendered all of our arrangements worthless and forced u. to hold a state encampment or do with' out one altogether." . .
