J. N. Hoffman was present be­
fore the Council and requested
that action be taken on charges
preferred against the Chief of
of Police. Charges read as fol­
lows :
To the Hon. Mayor and City
Council of Forest Grove, Oregon:
We would respectfully call your
attention to the fact, your Chief
of Police, P. W, Watkins is
guilty of conduct unbecoming an
officer in as much as that he
in the presence of Sexton and
others repeatedly called the in­
formant herein A Son-of-a-bitch.
This occurred on the street at
intersection of College Way and !
Pacific Avenue on the morning
of July 2nd, 1912.
We would ask that thia matter
be taken up by your honorable |
body and we stand ready to
prove our assertions.
Dated this 2nd day of July,
1912, at Forest Grove, Oregon.
Signed
J. N. Hoffman.
The Chief was present and ad­
mitted using the language charg­
ed; explained that he was not
wearing the S t a r at the time,
having left it at home that morn­
ing.
The Council decided that they
would have no authority to pass
on the matter as the Chief could
not lie held liable under the cir-
cumstences, and the communica-
j tion was laid on the table in-
definately. Councilman Sanfoid
talked at length on the matter
saying that in his opinion the I
language used was justified ss
the informant had been doing all
he could against the town for
the past 3 or 4 years.

Don’t neglect the children’s
musical education. It is a sin
for parents to neglect this part
of a child’s education. Have you
a piano in your home to start the
little ones out on, who, if they
had half a chance, would turn
the gloom into sunshine for you
and others? I sell good reliable
pianos and sell them on terms to
suit you whether for cash, or the
smallest payment you can afford.
