chief to make good, for he has ex-
posed the rottenness of the depart
ment under HeaIey and created a
public demand for a new order of
things. Schuettler doesn't have to
even try to please the politicians. He
can tell all of them to go to -thun-
der, and the public will back him up
in it. But that doesn't mean he has
to kOWtOw to Big Business. Healey
suited the business element. He was
a business mans chief, and only got
in trouble by trying to do a little
business on his own hook.
Schuettler is no spring chicken.
He's a gTanddaddy. He knows a
thing or two, and isn't in danger of
hooking up with little crooks. If he
keeps just as clear of the rich crooks
as he no doubt will of the poor ones
he has a chance to make good as
chief and retire in a blaze of glory.
But there's more to being a real
chief than pinching saIoon-keepers,
raiding resorts, catching gamblers
and chasing street-waIkers. Any
copper can do that, but it takes a
real one to treat all criminals alike,
play no favorites and enforce the
law on the rich as well as the poor.

THE PUBLIC FORUM
TO N. D. COCHRAN. =, Being &

TO N. D. COCHRAN. =, Being a
member of that great class WHOSE
cause you profess to champion, am
moved to make a few observations
upon your "open letter to Mr.. John
G. Shedd, Jan. 5, and upon other ar
ticles you have written about the
letter of thanks" from Marshall
Field & Co. to their employees.
I am a woman and have for fif-
teen years been an employe in State
street stores.
Frankly, hold no brief for the big
and rich concerns that employ thou
sands of people, and upon the whole
do not think they pay their employees
as much as they should.
But taking it for granted that you
are consumed with the one purpose
of humanitarianism, any one ac-
quainted with the facts must know
that you are uniformed as to the
real situation, that your assumptions
are inconsistent, and that your aim,
be it ever so worthy, entirely misses
the mark.
1OuI dLLdCh UPON mdISudu leu
& Co., upon Mr.. Shedd and other in
dividuals, and your unwaTTanted ref
erence to Marshall Field III. and
Henry Field, the polo-playing, soci-
ety-buzzing, lazy-loafing heir Of old
Marshall Field" are based upon the
insignificant fact that one State
street store gave a bonus to it's en-
ployes and that Marshall Field & Co.
did not, but sent to them a commune
cation Of appreciation and encour-
agement.
Mr.. Cochran, you know that the
real worth of people is not measured
by what they have, but by what they
are. Marshall Field Ill and Henry
Field could no more help being born
heirs to the Field millions than many
of us could help being born poor.
Their wealth should not, and doubt
less does not, affect their moral

ty management, II Is also suggested
that legislation empowering the coun
ties to issue, subject to proper re
strictiuns, short-term bonds in lieu OF
the notes now employed to secure
credit in emergencies, will permit the
investment Of the state school funds
at reasonable rates of interest in
these bonds procedure calculated
to benefit both the state and the coun
ties.
II is further recommended that by
legislative act. the state be given the
preferential option to purchase the
bonds OF any OF its counties at par
before such bonds are offered for sale
elsewhere.
OFFICIAL BONDS
Certain state and county Officers
are required by law to give official
bonds in varying amounts for the
faithful performance of their respec'
tive duties. There are good reasons
why these bonds should be supplied
by surety companies rather than by
individuals. II is undesirable that
public officials be under such Sbl!ga-
tions as are created by the securing
OF individual sureties. In the occa-
sional instances when, in the past,
II became necessary to collect on the
individual bonds OF public officers in
Nevada nothing has resulted but vex-
atious and fruitless litigation.
The state should require surety
bonds and should appropriate the
money necessary TO secure them.
