Councilman Herman, superintendent
Of the department Of public safety,
brought up the question Of the reten-
ton Of william Edgar. as merchant
police on $50 monthly salary from the
city as his work as q patrolman, an
nouncing that he had given Edgar his
discharge. 81
Mayor Jones wanted to know by
what authority he was discharglng
members Of the police force, and Her
man replied that the law and ordi-
nance both gave him the right in his
department.
In this Mayor Jones disagrees, and
declared that any councilman was
nothing more or less than an agent OF
the council and had no authority to
discharge. That action rests with the
council Mayor Jones also announced
that If Edgar had been discharged he
would be sworn in again.
Mayor Jones and Councilman Lamb
announced themselves in favor Of re-
tanning Edgar as a merchant police on
the salary he now receives. Mr.. Lamb
said that the arrests Edgar makes
each month pay his salary.
Mr.. Herman said that the merchant
police not specifically but generally,
not only failed to earn anything for
the city but for their patrons as well.
Herman declared that he did not be-
lieve In pension offices or hiring men
out Of sympathy.
The question Of the formal ratiflca-
ton of the appointments by Marshal
Clark of members Of the police force
did not come up at this mornings
