about the embarrassments which have

to call miserable old male and female
criminals before tho committee to tell
their twenty-year-old tales. I felt GER
tain that the decent men In the Board
Of Aldermen would not stand for such
business, any more than the people OF
this city. The whole partisan and Wick

thousand pieces In the end. and that Is
what has happened.

and see the great reforms which have
been worked out In the police force
during the last three and onc-half years
Some cases Of grating were disclosed
Certainly that was no surprise TO th'
community. Did we not all know thai
there had been grating FOR some years
and did We not all start In to do ava,

But let IL now be remembered thai
every case Of graft disclosure has come

gambling houses and vile houses were
seized by the Police Commissioners ant

Commissioner doing his duty. II thes'
