DANGER

Many people give but little heed to
the first attacks made by rheuma-
tism. Unless the pain is very severe
they argue that it will be time
enough to look for cure when the
trouble grows worse. Thus a fear,
fuI mistake is made. A small
quantity of water will put out a
house on fire while the blaze is
small. But after it is nearly con-
sumed it is too late, even with an
abundance of water.

CONCERNING A DETECTIVE.
Mayor Hubbard VetOeS the Ordinance
Therefor.
He Wants the Detective to Hold Office
Only at the Will of the
Mayor.

Mayor Hubbard last night vetoed the
ordinance providing for city detective,
and gives the following reasons for his
action:
ITO the Honorable Board Of Trustees:
I herewith return to you, without my
approval, Ordinance No. -, entitled
An ordinance creating the office of
tective for the city Of Sacramento, de-
fning the duties and fixing the salary
thereof
II do not approve of the proposed or
dinance for the reason that the public
interests are not sufficiently guarded by
the provisions of said ordinance In it's
present status the ordinance creates the
Office of detective and provides, among
other things, that the duties of such de-
tective shall be the same as those pre-
scribed by the charter of the city Of
Sacramento for police officers of said
city. and that all portions of said char
ter applicable to police officers shall be
applicable to the said office of detective
The evident meaning Of said provisions
is that such person shall act as de-
tective and perform the same duties
as are required of a police officer, and
shall hold office during life, or at least
during good behavior.
while l recognize the necessity for
the creation of such an Office, / also
realize that the interests of the public
would not be as we'll protected If the
incumbent of such office should hold for
life. as they would be if he should hold
office for a fixed and definite length of
time, or at the pleasure of the Mayor.
/ am thoroughly convinced that, if the
term of such officer should be left at the
VIII of the Mayor, better and more eff
cient service for the city would be OBJ
tanned.
If it should happen that person ap-
pointed was not competent, or was
careless in the performance of his duties,
g. way should be provided for his imme-
date removal and for the appointment
OF some one else in his stead. BY plac-
ing this power of removal of such off,
GER in the hands of the Mayor, / believe
that faithfulness and efficiency in de-
tective work would be assured, and the
office would, no doubt, be of great bene-
fit to the cityy otherwise the office might
serve the purpose of providing for some
The record-union., 1896-10-27

one who might prove to be unworthy
and faithless in the discharge of his du
ties life position, without any CORE
spending benefit to the city.
This proposed ordinance should not
be hastily passed, but should receive
your careful and thoughtful considera-
ton.
Il recommend that an ordinance be
drawn which will remove the objection
and embody the suggestion herein men
toned. Respectfully submitted,
&c. H. HUBBARD, Mayor"
Devine thought it might be best to
take no action in the matter of the
veto at present. He thought the May
or's objections might be removed under
the charter, and he moved that the
matter be laid over for a week.
Mckay said he understood that the
man for whom the office was created
would not get it, and it might as well
be dropped.
Kent said the matter was dead, and
might as well be let go.
Tozer moved that the matter be re-
ferred to The Police Committee foI
further investigated and it was SO or
dered.

DANGER IN DISGUISE.

The Serious Troubles That May Come
Upon People at This Time Of Year.
"Oh. 1t is only a cold.''
Such q remark as this is often heard at
this time of the year. when the weather is
chilly. The people who make such re-
mark seem to forget that a cold is really
a dangerous condition Of the system.
weak spot, disease. A cold may lead to
q cough, and then to pneumonia, or II
may sow the seeds of consumption For
this reason it is dangerous to neglect a
cold. 1t is better to stamp 1t out at once.
Fortunately there is one means of doing
this that is always safe and reliable. What
It Is and what it will do can be seen from
the following:
Mr.. NJ O. Connor, 271 Scott street,
Brooklyn, says: Some time ago l was
stricken down with congestion OF the
lungs, and. though having the best med
ical attendance, did not improve. l had
a cough that seemed to contract my chest
TO half Its natural size. l was in con-
slant pain, and had no rest day or night.
Al last was advised to try Duffy's pure
malt whisky, and it effected speedy
cure. The lung trouble and cough entirely
disappeared, my appetite was regained,
and breathing became as natural as ever.
l now feel like a new man all over"
No ordinary whisky could have pro-
duced these unusual results. AS a means
OF building up the system and restoring
the health, Duffy's pure malt has always
been uneQualed. If it We're kept in every
household and used in all cases of emer-
sency, vast amount of sickness and suf-
ferlng could be entirely prevented.
