OBSERVATIONS AND IitESOLUTIOIin BY THE
CORPORA PION OF SILINNdits,
Rcfpeilling the New POLICE BILL for the City of Olafgow.
TRADES HALL, March 1, any.
THE Corporation nf' Skinners having met this data
on the butinets of the new Bill intended to be brought into
Parliament for regulating the rolke of the City, and having dtli•
berated thereon, did nnanintoufly approve of the 8.11 in its priiici-
ple ; being convinced that the Police eftahlilliment has been emi-
nently ultra. The Corporation, however, it of opinion that the
Bill ought to he very much intended hi its dailies, and aifo, that
one elaufe ought to be added, all of whith will be pointed out in
the fequel.
Before doing fo, however, the Corpcnation cannot help expref-
fing its regret at the little and unfounded kaki* which the Cone-
Mon Council have all alcinventertained of the Board of Commit.
!loners, as the Corporation with pleafure take this opportunity to
fay, that, in the opinioti of this Corporation, the Commifiioners
of the Board of Police have uniformly conducted themtelves with
the great& probity ; with v.& attention to the duties of their
office; and in that cundud, have feeraingly been aduated folly
by a BrOng dcfi e for the public good. •
Having had occafion to (peak of there two bodies, the Corpora-
tion was naturally led to take a comparative view of the conduct
of both ; and troth impels the Corporation to fay, that while the
conduit of the Board teems to have been mahly and open; court-
ing, in place of Ode-avowing to avoid, inveftie ition of their pro.
eetdirgs, and molt anzioully dams to cultivate and pre terve eke
proper chain of conflation, which always ought to link the Elec-
tors and the Elected, that ache Common Council teems to have
been very much the reverts; as that Body, with no Nola faltidi-
ournets acid arrogance, appears to have drawn a line of circumval-
lation between the Citizens and themfelvee—a demarcation which
the Council clearly has no right to make; but within which the
Citizens have a good and undoubted right to approach.
We, in that very City, have had experience of the gond atten-
ding the fyltem of public Managers being elated by the Citizens
in their retpeddve Wards. This fyitern has been recognized by
the Legftlature. Much public gti has arifen from it ; and the
mode of eledtion has not, on any o e oecafion, been attended with
tumult, or inconveniency. This Corporation, therefore, and for
many other too good reatons, which could he aligned, is molt de-
cidedly of opinion that a ciente ought to he inferted in the Bill,
evading that the Commilfioners to be eleefted under its authority
lhall alto form, and be the Common Council of the City. This is
the mode of elect ing Common Council-men in the City of Lon.
den, and there can be no good reafon why it ought not to be
adopted in the City next to it, -en the Blind, ai to popelation.—
Indeed this mode has been often prime:fed by tonic of our witett
' and melt refpeetdble Citizens, but who did tempo% the matter
from the dread that it would be attended with with tumult and
loconveniency. That fear, however, it is tow Proved, was entirely
groundlefs -.ant`, as has been already often raid, we have exo- •
rienced the pradticability, as well as the utility of fuels mode of
elation. ;
The Corporation underftands that the ezetnelitore of the com-
munity greatly exceeds its income. What a ftriking emceed thence
arifes between the management of a Body felt seeded, and not ac-
countable, as is the cafe with the Common Council, mid the Com-
miffioners cledted by the people!! In the Mt. matters have been to
managed as to bring the yearly expenditure far above the inetame.
In the Taft, loos to leave a furplus.
Although the Corporation is hopeful that the mode for eh —ghee
the Common Council now recommended will be granted by the
Legiflature, whereby any remarks on the particular clautee of
the Bill would become unticedrary.lt will, however, make a few.
The Corporation then is decidedly of opioion, that the Altar-
ment Ronald not exceed that of the prefent Act; and that not
one Exthing wiring either from that Alreffmeot, or front fines un-
der the Ad, mould be taogible by a Body which is not ac.
countable, and whole Finances are already in loch an uncommon
Rate. Neither, as this Corporation thinks, thould the funds ap-
propriated for the Police Ettablifhment be burthened in the
firalleft degree with any expmee which has hitherto been turbine d
by the Common Council, fuch as that relating to Fire Engines, dec.
As the Corporation corifidcre the weight of a man's purfc, or
the value of the houfe he lives in, no proper rule by which to elli-
mate either his probity or his umierdatiding, it appears to it, that
the qualification fur a Commillioner ought not to be altered.
Alt bot:gh the Corporation is fenlibie many frauds are COMmit •
ted in the fide of Ceal, it is very evident that the laws already ex-
ifting are amply fulficient for checking the abufe ; and that it
would be unwire and impolitic to afford the Common Council a
pretext for having imputed, on a limitary of life, a Tax which
would rage from 'sod. to 20001. a year. Should, however, an
inipoit of this kind be found ablolutely neceffary, clear it is as the
fun at noon, that not one farthing of it itioukl be tangible by the Com.
mon Council, but by the Commiffioners, between whom and the
Citizens there Is a powerful conftitutional link of conneetion, aid
who therefore publifh their accounts, and ni ;nage their Finances
wifely. Bellies the greatelt part of what may be taken front the
Citizens by this impuft, would, in this event, count (r therm in
laying the Alletrinent for the Police.
The Meeting, however, is at opinion that the other Corpora-
tions of the City ought to meet, and deliberate on this irneurtabt
hulloes.
Thereafter it was ref ived unanlno;dly.
aft, That the thanks of this Corporation arc due to the worthy,
patriotic and independeet Commiffioners of Police for this City,
for their zealous and Ready attachment to the interefts and w.l-
- of their fellow Citizens, for the honourable and able dirchtirge
of their duty as Commilfioners of Police ; and particularly tor
their uniform refiltance in opy•ofing the (showgirls and perniciou,
chutes introduced into the propofed New Police ill by the Ma.
giftrates and Towo Cr 'Mei! of this City.
ad, That this Corporation will en operate with all the other
Corporations and public Bodies, in this City, for the purpote ef
obtaining, by all legal and cotillitutional 'ventures, the Claufe
and Amendments now propofed, inferted and made in the Bill in
