THE MAKING OF POLICEMEN.
one of the Rest Organizers in the
Country Tells How.

tohAAEN Aeti@ h"Rs
supt Roger O'AIara Of the Pittsburg
Pa. police is wen known in Savannah.
He IS looked upon as one Of the best po-
lice organizers in the country. lie is a
keen detective and an officer whose
ability has made the Pittsburg police "a
model force. In his recent annual report
ne makes some suggestions which are APP
plicable in the conduct OF any police force.
The compensation now paid policemen in
comparison with that Of skilled and train
ed labor. he says is in favor Of the police
officer. and should call forth applicants OF
the most desirable standard; the service Is
credltable and honorable as can be obtain
ed In any av0catiOn, the professions per
haps excepted. These things being so and
the applicants being many the utmost
care IN the selection Supt. O'Mare urges,
should be exercised as t1 intelligence and
physical qualifications The physical eN-
amnations should be equal to and Of the
same Grade Of the Unltec States army.
The questions asked OF Use applicants as
TO intelligence and education, should be
fun and complete, and the answers If
closely dissected should indicate the gem
eral Intelligence OF the applicant. Yet this
may not be enough. The general appear
ance, force, nerve, character as expressed
IN countenance, energy Of purpose, in
short, the whole man. should be taken
into account. Young men should have the
preference when properly qualified, and
Americans should have preference over
naturalized citizens. The applicant should
first be placed on the sub list for a period
OF three months, during which time he
should be trained in sys matte drill, to use
his strength and activity TO best advan-
tage. Confidence is entirely the fruit of
experience. During this period the appli-
cant should study the police manual to
understand the police laws, grades Of
crime and his legal duties, and before pro-
motion stand close examination thereon.
An officer should never be removed except
for cause, and after a fun hearing before
a board Of officers. with a right Of appeal,
and a final decision by a disinterested
party such as the mayor. council or court.
This would place him beyond the caprice
of politicians.
In the west in a number OF cities police
reorganization is being undertaken. A
bill is to be introduced in the Illinois
legislature, which provides that no person
having the authority of a peace officer
shall be vested with the powers of his
office until he shall file a 5000 bond The
bill makes all officers vested with the
power Of arresting citizens subservient
to this law. IT also will provide for an
examination for candidates for police
positions as 10 their thorough knowledge
of the laws under which warrants are
served, sight arrests made, and the rights
of all persons so arrested under the stat
utes. Briefly, policemen are to be made
pecuniariy responsible to citizens for
false, malicious and hasty arrests, and
citizens are to have redress for al dam
ages, bodily or otherwise. offered at the
hands of incompetent, brutal and drunken
policemen.

The burning out of motor connections
on electric cars has since the inception of
the service been a source Of serious in
convenience and less to the companies
operating the car lines This is frequent
~ caused by the motorman turning on the
current before cutting the brakes loose.
With view Of correcting this defect
New Orleans man. Marion 3. Monroe,
has devised an apparatus which, when
applied to the electric cars, effectually
prevents the burning Of the motor connec-
tons and by working automatically pre-
vents the current being sent to the motor
while the brake is still on. The inven-
ton, which bids fair to prove of such
great advantage, consists of a single
lever. This lever takes the place of the
motor switch and the brake bar, the ope-
rating of both being performed by a sim
gle movement, thus rendering it impos-
sible for the motorman to attempt to
start the car unless the brake is removed
from the wheels. AS the lever is moved
the brake is released and the current
taken into the motor, or vice versa. BY
the new arrangement it is possible for
the car to be stopped before it has pro-
crossed a dozen feet.

No Escape from 1t.

Now that the subject is up, the
JOURNAL will call popular attention to
the fact that exactly the same com
plant that is made against the use of the
military arm of the law, can be made
with equal propriety and force against
the employment of any resort to pre-
serve public order.
If the last resort be wrong, or even
inexpedient, so is the first.
If it be wrong to maintain the
soldier us final recourse, 1t is no less
wrong to maintain the constable as the
initial.
But the truth is-every possible
establishment and method that human
wisdom can devise as deterrents to
violence have been erected all along the
road from temptation to crime.
Against W: ongdoing every court is
camp; every grand jury crusade
every magistrate an inner guard, and
every constable and policeman a
sentinel.
Only force, therefore, can override
all these, but when this is done force
must at last be met by force.
If the laws final resort then fails, a
common ruin engulfs the victors as
we'll as vanquished.

A Nutshell Statement

Miners, last year the canal carried
3O4, 437 tons OF coal out of this region.
This fact means that the mining
labor income from the trade thus
served amounted to neatly tire hundred
thousand dollars
In spite of the unprecedented drouth
the canal has carried so far this year
255, 900 tons.
Which means that the income to
mining labor in this region so far this
year from this source amounts to nearly
one hundred and sixty sir thousand d0ll01s !
There is no use mincing matters-a
vote for Hurst is Il vote to imperil this
income!
Not onl y so, but the election of
Hurst will be regarded all over the
State as an endorsement, among other
undesirable things, of the scheme to
transfer the canal to your competitors

A SkClallle

The Baltimore Federation of Labor,
a leg of the Noble Order triangle, has
got its faith in official reports from
labor circles so tangled up in authorita-
tive contradictions, that they have let
down the bars and told the herd to run
where it pleases.
Two distinctly opposing statements
went from this region, the last one
after the capture of the Noble Order
by Gormanism, taking shape in a
portable masked battery flying a dem
ocratic prospectus, but unfurling a
Knight of Labor flag.
The embarrassment occasioned the
Federation was intense. 1t took on
the nature and proportions of an in
ternecine strike.
And now, since nothing else could be
done, ''the strike is declared off -
Hurst is to have all he can get ;
Lowndes likewise, and the devil is to
run off with the poor fellows who
made the affidavits.
