1t is to be hoped that the legislative
boards of Psducah will not take seri-
ously rhe proposition to place into com
mission two or more ''plsin clothes"
officers, il additional expense has to be
incurred to do ii. We might have 100
more police officers than we have now
and still there would not be enough,
from one standpoint, at least, as the
city is so large that one officer to the
blocK would still leave room for COM
plant. There would always be some
part Of the block he could not watch
constantly. But as to the plain clothes
proposition, whenever Paducsh needs
plain clothes officers, let some Of the
regular officers be detailed to do the
plain clothes work. 1t is not often
that there is any use for officers of this
description in city the size of Padu-
cab, and when there is, any policeman
could wear plain clothes long enough
30 do the work.

The water company comes back in a
reply and alleges that it lie . well
known principle Of fire fighting that
the more water is thrown on fire the
hotter the FIRE, and that this was the
case in Louisville. This may be true,
as water may have a disastrous effect
on anything it is used on in Louis
Vile. Water either poured down or
thrown on, most any Kentuckian is
calculated to make him hot, but we
didn't know it applied to fires.
