Police History.
Roger Williams, policeman, is very
angry at the Homecoming star of Frost
burg. He says "what that paper doesn't
know about police duty would require
another lock-up.'
Something like this is evident, for the
star wants Williams out and one OF
several more policemen put in.
But one policeman is enough for a
town as generally peaceablc and order
ly as FroStburg. New York City has a
policeman for every $50 inhabitants, ac-
cording to the UcrdId of that city, yet
"crime is increasing
Then the !Stnr is party paper Why
should it want to undo what its party
did? In order to get rid of Samuel
Bowen its party had the police made
elective, thus placing that body nJo"t
both Council and people.
\ But Sam still won.
Then its party had to knock him out
finally by creating new otfce-taN
collector, costing the people several hun
bred dollars year more than necessary
Since which time the Bailitf has had
nothing to do but instruct the Mayor
and Councilmen what and what not to do
Hence, gentlemen, the only cure fol
all the extravagancies of the municipal
situation is for he p"opIc to take charge
of the nomination and election of Mayor
and Councilman wih0m r"gdrd 10 Ddrfy

There is no more reason why police
man should be a republican or ii demo-
crat than that he should be Il PreSby
tcrian or Lutheran. an Odd Fellow OF
an Elk, United and Intelligent For
ester or an Untraveled but lnfuriated

intentions, and consequently as soon as Hugo
Hohenlohe's presence here was known specula-

meet his name with totally unfounded story.

of a marriage broker in order to secure the hand
