The Police Bill.

To THE MEMBERS THE SENATE OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK
There have been three four different Police bills for
this city brought forward by different members Of the
city delegation each Of which In different degrees tended
to destroy the organization Of police system on
which depends protection from Insult and injury and
the security Of our ives and property
These bills have been introduced at the instance Of
political and national clques with the view Of making
the police subservent to their views-a force embracing
elcpen hundred and ffty Of influence, scattered
throughout the different wards Of the city; and am
sorry to say that believe that several members Of
delegation to the Assembly elected to carry out that
dangerous principle.
The first bills introduced to make the Chief and
officers elective The brains OF these bills were dashed
out by the members from the rural districts by very
decided vote.
Another bill Is Immediately brought up, which un-
derstan has passed the Assembly reconsideration,
after was lost by vote than the constitutional
number And the provisions of this dangerous
TO the welfare Of city than those which have been
killed. The former bills only killed the Ch'f-this de-
stroys the ,ohole body
The first section makes the Chief to "hod his ONCE
during tho pleasure Of the Mayor" This enables the
Mayor II politician TO turn out as often a. he thinks
at Chief Of Police who will not lend the power Of the
department to political ends until 10 t~ds one who WI

the Whole ON the State Of the Union but preferred the
one from the Senate He gave the his support
because it asserted the principle of self government He
wished to have this recognized by the national lcgsa
ture to form precedent and be referred to In all time
to come whenever sectional difficulty shall arise He ar
gued the following points-First the bill does not pro-
pose to repeal the compromise Of 1920 but does repeal
the Missouri restriction of $780, second the eighth Sec
tion of the act of March g. 1920 was not compromise
measure because wanted the essential element OF mu
tua concesson third the Missouri restriction is uncon-
stuonal and void fourth in order to bolster it up
1t has been confounded with the act Of 1921 and the
name Of Clay drawn in to give it strength and influence
In conclusion he said the friends of the bill should not
be intimdated by abolition outcries but should look to
the people for just appreciation Of their conduct
Mr. NICHOLS, (dem of Ohio esaid in his speech he
should never vote for this any other Nebraska bill
which contains proviso to repeal the Missouri compro
mise contains the Clayt@ amendment. He entered
into historical view of the compromise to support his
position and declared he opposed to the BILL in addi
ton to the reasons offered because it agaes the slave
question which the compromise Of 1850 set
tied as fnality and which he pledged to sustain
MT WAsHBuRSE, (whig) Of III opposed the repeal Of
the Missouri compromise, and replied to the arguments
which had been advanced in support of the Nebraska
bill. He stood on the same platform with Mr. Webster
never to vote to extend the of slavery. II he had
been in Congress when the compromise measures were
passed he should have proposed the Wmo proviso for
the New Mexico and Utah bills.
The committee rose and the House adjourned.
