MOUNTAINEERING tne increase In pOpulatlOn
III the last five years and necessity for addi-
tional policemen, the force has in fact been de-
creased in numbers, besides assignments to
special duty as in the case Of the work house
Your committee, while they realize the inn
portance of an increased force, hesitate, when
the public demand seems SO urgent for low
taxes and further economy upon tho part of
the municipal government, yet they feel war
ranted in recommending an increase during the
summer months when it is so necessary t. have
a larger force. They therefore ask for the
adoption Of the accompanying resolution.
Very respectfully.
