Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1867-03-22

gentlemen had proposed to atarve out tn
police. He thought q vote against tn
report Of the committee would give thu
commissioners power to assess & tax O
$500 ,0G0 IL they SO desired. He thought
il were better to make the appropriation
and meet them at the supreme court in
April.
Alderman Smith disclaimed any con.
neetion with the bill. The people OF
Nashville had ignored the metropolitan
police. It had been heralded In the pub
lie prints 0ver the length and breadth OF
the land that the leaders of the metro
politan police were thieves and scoun-
drels. Entertainments had been given
In n OF our popular hotels
at which thieves were present. He
objected to giving the money of the city
to pay for any such entertainments.
Alderman Townsend did not object to
the system Of police, but to the men
who controlled It. He was prepared to
pay q reasonable amount for the support
Of the police, but thought $500, 600 a year
was too much, and was not prepared to
vote for so large a sum.
The molten being put, was carried by
the following vote: Geas-Aldermen
