We know that the rigidness and impartiality with
which many of the reforms inaugurated, have
been adhered to, may appear harsh to many, and
caused some complaint, but all good citizens
should not only acquiesce in them, but give our
officials hearty support Their labors are de-
voted to the good of the entire community, and
we believe if they are supported by the approving
sentiment of the citizens, their endeavors will be
crowned with much success. .. .-.-.
The efficiency of our police is attested by the
limited number of crimes and disturbances which
occur ia our midst While onr exchanges, even
