OTR POLICE PROTECTORS.

The conduct of the police of New IOrk and
Brooklyn during the recent period OF strikes
has been such on the whole as to merit cordial
praise. Ii has been marked by moderation,
frmness and good sense. There have been
doubtless some instances in which the club has
been a little too freely used, but in the main
our police have shown admirable patience and
self control under trying circumstances 1t is
to the credit of the strikers that they have
shown a more orderly disposition than has been
sometimes manifested, bat there are always
roughs, members of gangs and brutal fellows on
hand, when there is likelihood of disturbance J;
and it has been these rather than the strikers
whom the police have had TO keep III check.
The locust has in almost every instance been
sufficient. Once in Williamsburg the police
drew their rev divers and fired upon the crowd !;
but not until savage attack with brlckbats
and stones had been made, and then they did
not fire to kill.
Onr we'll organized policemen have show n
their ability to keep crowds in subjcction,
largely by their simple presence and the fact
that they are thoroughly drilled. They are not
men to lose their heads in III emergency, Dr. to
resort TO extreme measures unless these are
absolutely necessary. OF course, the prolonged
strikes have entalcd much extra work and long
hours upon them but they have done their
disagreeable duty with cheerlulncss. Doubtless
some havo felt sympathy with the strikers
rather than with the new men engaged, but
this does not seem to have Influenced their con-
duct. New-York has good reason to De proud
of its police force, and of its superintendent,
inspectors and captains. The city was never
safer than at present at all hours of day and
night In spite of the fact that so many police
men have been called to one part of the city,
there has been no increase of criminal acts IN
other quarters. OF such an outbreak OF vio-
lence and anarchism as the West has witnessed
New-York is probably in no danger; but New
Workers have every reason for full confidence
in the ability of their police to cope with even
the most daring and desperate mob.
