and Installed Officers.

Police Matron Fits feels indignant to
think that SO many false stories are In cir
culation in connection with the police
station matters.
She does not wish to antagonize the
Veteran Firemen's Association as body
nor as individuals, but it is the humane
side of the question she is looking upon.
There is scarcely a person in the city
who is not well acquainted with Miss
Fits past history, and there is not mo-
ment of her life but has been spent in try
ing to do good for her neighbors in some
manner or other.
She is, practically, the founder OF the
Peoples Mission, and many hours of hard
labor has been spent by her in placing this
mission on firm foundation.
In view OF her past life, and her well
known integrity, it ill becomes any MEM
ber of the Veterans to charge her with
making false statements.
These statements concerning her were
made no doubt in a thoughtless moment,
yet they place her in a peculiar position.
The only way to settle this matter is to
build new station without loss of time.
This proposition was advanced more
than three months ago by the TRIBUNE,
notwithstanding some other pencil push
ers are claiming the credit OF 1T.
Build a new station with all the modern
improvements, and let the Vets have
reasonable portion Of the building.
The police department is an important
factor in the city, aud a suitable place
ought to be provided.
