, order through laws provided by the
state of Pennsylvania that serious
minded men residing in the anthracite
field considered the establishment near
Scranton OF a United States army post.
\ movement in this direction was
already under way. after 1t was seen
! that even with 10000 of the National
| Guard Pennsylvania was not permitted
/ to put down insurrection and uphold the
authority of the courts At this critical
juncture, however. another plan was
proposed by Judge George II. Trout
= man. late of Hazleton and Wilkesbarre.
He had been a cavalryman in the Union
army during the civil war and daring
scout at that. As n lawyer and turist
| he foresaw difficulties in having any
| where in the anthracite regions n post
Of the regular army that could act in
| putting down riots within the confines
| Of Pennsylvania. And he took "A short
cut out of the difficulty by urging the
establishment of a small. active body OF
| mounted State police, to be recruited
from men who had been honorably dis
| charged from the United States cavalry.
| This force should be independent Of any
local police; it should have no part or
parcel in politics; its commander should
|
ernor OF Pennsylvania.
One Of the most important features OF
the plan was that neither officers nor
men should receive more than moderate
pay. In other words, Judge Troutman
and Others associated with him realized
that the extraordinary service they had
in view for a State constabulary could
not be obtained on a money basis
through the temptation of high salaries.
The men who were to sweep from one
end of the State to the other. regard
less of danger. hours of work, hard
ship or any other consideration, must
be men who would throw themselves
into the career heart and soul from
very love of II and not because or the
money they would draw each month.
! This reasoning proved sound. Fol

along Il line OF approximately one hum

Westminster and Putnam counties and
northward as far as Cold Spring, then
on the west side of the Hudson beyond
Kingston to the Ashokan Dam. These
men were stationed at various pre-

hundreds Of Southern negroes, Italians

construction work. Their business was

but to patrol country roads. ride on

These men advocate the establish
ment OF a Statewide police. but Supt.
Shrady thinks that far better service
would result from county constabu-
larry.
Mr.. Low Is particularly interested In
a state police. for he has carefully
studied the experience Of Pennsylvania,
as well as the record made by the Ca
madam Northwest Mounted Police for
many years. He realizes that conditions
in the Empire State are In many re-
spects unlike those existing in Pennsyl-
vania, where recurrent strikes and riots

establishment Of the constabulary. But
he is decidedly OF the opinion that a

of the multitude Of families who are
moving out to the country from cities

. As compared with pennsylvania, the
State of New York has had few labor
troubles followed by violence which
necessitated calling out the Natioha
