of Council Ilulf , and the liberality ol
former administration li.n been fully jus
tified l.y m nly nnd energetic work from
asctof yonnc men who have derived nr
pcrhonul and pecuniary benefit from
the organisation , I ml who have cheerfully
under all circumstancof , performed n pub
lic duly In the interojlo of all. Tor that
reason 1 would recommend the most lib
eral expenditure of money in that direc
tion , consistent witli our financial condi
tion 01 a proper nnd jud ( clout outlay. I
cannnt dhmlig this subject without a par.
tlctilar reference to the chief of that de
partment , Mr. Licy , whoio equal for skill
and fidelity scarcely pxatfbut ! whoso com
pensation , In my judgment , hat not been
and is not now , adequate to ho service
performed nnd the responsibility of the
position , Th time II H COHID , too , for the
adoption of some method of fire alarm , by
tslegrnph , say nt each hoio house in the
c ty , fo ns to avoid mistakes nnd delnv ,
and to increase the ifHcIcncy of the de
partment.
Upon the ollicleucy of the police depart
ment depon is the dftfelyof the HVPS and
property of the citizens In tha firt In
stance. This h a matt'r , then , of the
highest importance. The inott effec
tive police force it only attainable
when compensation for duty Is Mich M
to nttrnct to it men who ar- the best
qualified , in every reaped , for thee
trust * . With that in view , it Bccmito bo
uuwi'o to expect thn bust men to lie at
tracted to the service with sdnrlei that
are iiin-lequatf. I would therefore recom
mend that the galarv of the chief of po
II e bo raised to 8CCO { per ycir , and
those ot the other officers of tliq force to
505.CO per month , and made payable out
of the police fund. In that way the Hal-
nrics will bo fixed , nnd not fluctuating ,
a ? if paid in any other manner. That
the council may Imvo n general Idea of the
force , Kinco lha 10th of April , 1881 , I
have abstracted from the annual report ol

Much of llio'work mentioned in this re
port was done without compensation , the
bo rd of Hiiperviiois , mrler n decision of
the Htinri me court , having refused to allow
the policemen anything for the largo num.
bor of arrests made in state cases. It la
Important that when Mich duty IH per

demand that they do frequently pcrfcrm
it to prevent e capen , Homo provision
should be inado to compensate them for
such extra duty , in coma form or anothei
as shall seem the wisest.

An enterprise to vital to the general
prospeiity of our city and the well b'irig
of its inhabitants should receive from u
inoie tha a mera passing notice Nc
contemplated industry in our city com-
bands such universal interest by our peo-
[ > lu as this. Much speculation hae bean
indulged in by all , and no pmall amount
of opposition been interposed by some of
our bent citizens in regnrd to the construc
tion of t licao works by the American Con
struction company , with whom our pre
decessors contracted for the completion of
the B.imo by the 21th day of January , A.
D. , 1883. Whatever may bo thought of
the merits of this contiact , nnd I am
aware that many regard it jnequjtahle to
the people of our city , yet. it having been
solemnly entered Into by the city and said
company , in my judgment w ought not
as the true reprteentatlvcs of the people
to do anything but to carry out on the
part of the city in the utmost good faith ,
all the requirements of said contract
which tha city was to pcrfo'iu ' , and in
every legitimate innnner aldnnd nttsist the
company .to construct nnd complete the
workx an contemplated by nil parties , acd
I feel that this council will justify mo in
extending such assurance to the water
works company us the policy of this ad-
ministration.
1 am credibly informed , and I have no
doubt myself , but that thu works will bo
built within the time prescribed in thu

The ordinance requiring saloons < (
close up ut 11 o'clock at night and t (
keep closed Sundays lias been n cleat
letter so long that it acorns ns if tin
oflicials had forgotten that any sucl
ordinance had existed. With UK
comitw > of the now adminUtratior
the following renolution was adoptet
by the now council :
Resolved , That the mayor and mar
shal bo and they arc hereby instructed
to enforce rigidly and impartially the
ordinance defining misdemeanor and
fixing punishment. Also _ tlio ordi
nance concerning the closing of Ha'
loons and tippling houses.
Tno ordinance referred to providct
that saloons shall bo kept eloped from
11 p. m. to 4 n. m. the next day , anc
fixes the penalty at not less than § i
and not moro than $2Eij also that sa
loons shall bo kept closed on Sundaj
under penalty of not ICES than § LC
nor moro than $25.
Last week the police roportctl n
number of places open after 11 o'clock
at night , and yesterday they reported
twonty-tlireo places open on Sunday.
Oflicer Uuanolla reported Burchc-
son & McCalsfcr's open until ]
o'clock at uiijht , and the beer garden
as open until 12 o'clock.
Ollicor Sterling reported the follow
ing places : D. Frazer , Calif ornis
house , Metropolitan house Ander
son's ' , Porbes' , Peter Johnson's , Beclo
ley'a , Maivo White's ' 'at the Pacific
house.
Ollicer Earhyto reported as open on
Sunday : Tlio Centi.il , Pat Lacy ,
Peter Dechtolo , Leo Mitchell , Ex
change , Sam Ford , Ogden billiard
saloon , Hatch , Henry Leland , the
saloon under Turner hall , Moss and
Lawrence Hull's old place.
Ollicer Clough reported the Lowei
home , MikeNoland , Burlington
house , St. Joe house , Kofi's house ,
Dick Kennedy , Creeton house , Nick
Shurz and Chris Swinger.
Under the resolution of the council ,
it is the duty of the mayor and city
in a rah al to enforce the ordinance , and
as ihcao thirty-three violations are re
ported , the question naturally arises ,
what will bo done about it ? Thus fat
nothing has been done beyond making
a report. There Rooms to be a de
termination on the part of the now
city government to enfoico the ordin
ances. The expressmen have been
made to move on to the side streets and
driven off Broadway. If it is fair tc
enforce the ordinance as regards ex-
pressmen , there should bo no hesi
tancy in enforcing this ono. Tin
council have issued the order that the
saloon ohall sell as required by law.
Numerous violation * have been of
ficially reported. If they lot the
matter drop there , the whole thuij )
wil bo a farco. Having taken a stop ,
it remains to bo scon whether thoj
will retreat or go on. Having started
in on the express ordinance thej
should- make it a square deal for all
violators of ordinances , or else rescind <
scind the ordinances altogether.
