no dl cord between. Iho mayor and tin
mnrshal , becailfij i > od dUeipline in tlu1
police force can drily be miintuiiied by
the co-operation of ( he two executive
olllcurs. But wo iiavi' no cxidenec , ; \
yet , that Mr. Ho.vd desires to iniiro\r ]
tlin police service by a change of mar-
.sliab. Tlm men he has nominated for
that position were cither lest com
pel -nt than f'ummings ' or weio
notoriously in sympathy with
the class whnso disposition tti
set tlm laws at d llanec. needs to lie
crushed. Our impression is thai Mr1
llovd wa-its llrst of all a demo -ratlc ro-
worker as a nvirshal who will u 'i the
police in the tnt-r-dt of the machine.
This is doublles ? th- prime ron-on why
Mnrsh.is Cuinmings is beintr pushed to
the will. The mayor's e.hanco that Mar
shal Ciimmings is ignorant nnd ine-mi-
petimt would bo true if by thai is meant
that Mr. ( Juiumiiigi is not a scholar or a
graduate from a eolli < gn or academy.
Hut it looks ridiculous fo.- Mayor ISoyd
to call him an ignoramus when
only two weeks ngj he 'w.u-kcd hard at
the priiutu-ies loin-ike I'addy Tord shun ! ! '
of Douglas county. If Pat Ford could till
the olliee of shoriu"aecept'ibly to Air.
Hoyil , wo fail to MHO why Mr. Ciiminings
is not e/jiup.Ucnt to till the olliee of
marshal. So much on that score.
As to thu general charge that li is nil
fit and inoompotonl , we can only judge
by his conduct as an oil -r. Why i * it
lint the clamor for his removal comes
from tins mn who are blug eternally
hauled Ivforo the police court for violat
ing the 1'iw. ' If thu polieu force is ilc-
mnrali/ed or disorgani/.ed it is because
