TIE BARRTCADE SMASHER,
He Forgets that he is an "A1derman and
Justice of the Peace" and goes on a
Bender.

Alderman David Barrow, white, who made
such a fool Of himself on last Friday, by
smashing the barricade in front Of the Plan
ters' and Mechanics Bank building, assumed a
new role yesterday afternoon, by going on a
bender and asserting that he knew the laws Of
the IJniled States ard would see that they we're
enforce1..
While reeling about East Bay, near the Gus
tomhouse. about half-past three o'clock, he
observed a pile of cocoanuts in front Of the
house of Messrs. Paul, Wech & Brandes.
These cocoanuts had been consigned to
Messrs. Enslow & Co.. from whom this firm
had purchased them. Each Of these cocoa
nuts did not present stamp, as the tuddled
brain of the Alderman, who is also en- ap-
uraiser at the Customhouse, imagined they
sbould. and he walked into the store and
insolently asserted to Mr.. S. E. Welch that the
duty had not been paid on them.
Mr.. Welch was Of course indignant, and told
the appraiser that he did not recognize him at
all in the matter; that the duty had been
paid, as he could ascertain by inquiring Of
Messrs. Enslow & Co., or of the United States
Customhouse officer, then on board OF the ves-
sci discharging the cargo.
Barrow continued to assert that the duty
had not been paid, and Mr.. Welch ordered him
ont of the store. He refused to go, and MIR.
Welch was upon the point of kicking him out,
but seeing policeman passing he told him to
take the befuddled individual away. The
noliceman took hold of Barrow By the arm and
carried him off q short distance from the store
and released him.
Mr. WeIch then went to the Guardhouse to
enter charges against Barrow for drunkenness
and unlawful trespass. BE was advised, If he
intended to prosecute, to prefer charges be-
fore MAGISTRATE. There was no great desire
eyinced to enter the charges, and Mr. Welch
left and dld not go to O magistrate; but we
hope he will prefer charges to-day.sz1f Mr..
Welch had kicked the Alderman out OF the
store. be would have taught him lesson OF
deoency, and Justly punished him for his un-
wsrrautable conduct. Our citizens cannot pre-
vent the Aldermen from making fools of them
selves in the Council chamber; but when these
functionaries cannot restrain their propensi-
ties upon the streets and thus interfere
with the rights OF the citizens, they should be
made to behave, as far as possible, like civil
;1ad hoinUa

TEE POLICE BILL The Police bill has beer
discussed AMI discussed until almost every
one is tired of hearing it mentioned. It vii
be brought up at the meeting Of Council to-
night, and we sincerely trust that the police
force will be ''reorgsuized," as some want it
or the supporters of the bill be so thoroughly
disorganizad by defeat that they will never
recover sufficiently to reorganize themselves
and make another fight over it.
So much for an introduction; now for some
facts which will be presented for the conside.
ration OF the Aldermen tonight. The present
force costs s67.732 per apnum, divided as fol-
lows: Captain, $500; two ieutenants, at $12O0
each, $2400; two sergeants, at $500 each, $780,
four roundsmen, at $500 each s2400; sixty-ive
day men, at 1920 each, S46 800; thirty eight
night mon, at $500 each, s11 400; two hostlers,
at 5000 each, $1,000; three horses, s4S2 per an
mum. Total, $67,732.
The Police bill, rs amended, provides that
there shall be captain with salary Of $500;
two lieutenants, at $1,000 each, $2400; two SER
geants, at s720 each, s1440; twelve roundsmen,
at 5000 each, s72OO; seventy-six privates, at
$3.50 each, $S6 4SO; two hostlers. at $3.50 each,
$3.50; three horses, at 1892 per annum. Total,
$5O,412.
A comparison Of the above statements will
show that the night force will, under the
amended bill, be done away with, and the cost
will be $17, 800 less per annum than the present
cost of the force. In the above statements the
door men and steeple men, whose salaries foot
up two thousand seven hundred dollars per
annum, are not included. There will be the
same number Of this class of men kept on the
force If it be "reorganized."
We think that in this effort to reduce the e1-
pense of the force, very little thought has been
exercised in regard to the privates, &ho are
dependent entirely upon their salaries for a
livelihood. Four hundred and eighty dollars
per annum is not sufficient for a single
man to live upon much less married man
with family, and We believe that majority
OF the members are in the latter predicament.
The police force is as good as can be expected
under the existing circumstances, and all
efforts to "reorgani2e" it, g., to make it poll
tical machine, will certainly not result in any
benefit to it whatever.
