crime OF any notoriety committed in the
city that does not furnish evidence Of tie in.
efficiency Of the police force. 1t almost inys
risbly happens that tie men who can do most
in securing the arrest Of Tie criminal, and in
tracing mp circumstances which might succeed
in convicting the guilty party, are never cm-
ploycd In 'his service in cases 81 murder like
that which shocked the entire community on

province Of detective force such IL certainly

,ecti,e policeman appear 70 be the special
servant of private citizens, who may have lost
money or property by theft, burglary or pocket

sioration. We rarely, II ever, find criminal
convicted and punished by the cxertions Of
detective officer, but IL il very common 10 see
stolen property restored by his influence,
share Of which II is to be presumed he receives,
perhaps in the shape Of expenses, or on some
other pretext Now We contend that inasmucl,
as human life l. infinitely more valuable
than property Of any kind, the services
of the most active branch OF The police
force should be devoted 10 its pro,cc-
