Why Are the Police Not Paid,

There Is matter of serious inquiry ar
to the payment OF the Police Depart
ment. When men perform duty In any
department OF life. the natural conse-
duenee seems to be that they should re-
ceive remuneration for such services MS
they may render. Now for nenrly six
months have the guardians OF the
peace been standing their watch
by night and day, and in that time not
one cent have they received. They owe
grOcers, butchers, clothiers and doctors,
and yet, though they may be willing
TO make settlements, their inability
to do so Is beyond the peradven-
ture Of doubt. Where is their
revenue to come from II not from
the police treasury, This depart
mont claims that its expenditures per
month are nearly $4,000. The
August, rs, police rolls were paid be-
fore the 9th Of that month from taxes
of IA. Since that date to the 2lst Of
January, '76, there has been paid to the
Police Treasury from the City Hall
over $67 900, leaving q surplus, even If
the August dues had been paid, Of
something over $4,000. But the
above dues not having been
paid, there must be now In
the police treasury some 1857 900 or over,
which Is still unaccounted for, and still
the police complain about the want OF
money to meet even the most trivial ex-
penses OF everyday life. We do not
wish to charge any one with foul play,
but, certainly, such state of affairs de-
serves ut least an explanation. M.

Too Much Cotton.

The Bryan 4ppeol contains a para.
graph which deserves special notice. In
speaking of the Brazos river Il declares
Drazos river beats any country in the
world FOR cotton, still we don't like 10
hear OF these mammoth crops. Tor every
one that IL made, the price goes lower.
But II cotton is king, Brazos bottom is
his throne, and such men as Wilson,
Bailey and Astin are his ministers.
To add to the misfortune Of low prices
FOR the large crops. the planters are
taking all the money they can get into
the country and sinking Il out of sight
and thus removing Il from the currents
Of trade. and addingsto the tightness
Of the money market. Tho worse dis
position to make Of United States shin
