In them it was recommended that $200 be panel the Home for the Aged in lieu of lost year’s claims. far three yrrtrs and three times the Sanit‘ l matter has cznne up. The first year Mayor Smyth suspended the Chief and afterward res‘ored him. In the second I Was chzizunn of the police committee a. d f :und the force in very bad Condi< ion. Tha' year Mayor Taylor suspended the Chief and restored him. The suggestion that he :ake the gold cure was ridiculed by both him and some councillors. He said he did u )t require to use such means and that if he ever touched liquor again he would resign. He did drink but has not resigned. Lxst fall he receivedfper» mission to leave town and bring back a man from the Northwest and when he returned I saw he had been drinking. I said nothing but hoped that he would Straighten up. It went on till February when I called the committee and the Chief. He was given a fair chance but‘ you know the condition in which he came ‘ before us and you you accuse us of stab- ‘biog him in the back. At that time we idecrded that a radical change was neces- isary and called for the resignation of both police. The resignations did not come. In the meantime part of this council for some unknown reason have changed their minds. Ald. Crandell stated things concerning the Chief that should insure any officer’s expulsion. Aid. Lennon said he would vote er dis- miesnl. He told the chief so as well. Both these men have gone back on their action in committee. It cannot be that they have found the charges untrue far they are plain to 811;. I am sorry for Mr. __AL-_ LA- A.---2_ Mr. H. O’Leary asked to explain that $100 had to be paid Into the legislature- before the Sylvester and Kitchener bill was touched y.Mr Hopkins had deposited $50 and he had done llkewlse. Hence the mayor’ a order. ChairmZm Sootheran explained that he had not yet presented the report referred to hence it was not signed. He opined that inasmuch as the $50 was spent for services ordered by council no question of authority should be mised. The auditors report for January referred to an unsigned report of the finance cum- mtttee and an) order for $50 by the mayor which is a larger amount than may be covered by an order. The market cierk enriched the (.x- cheque! by $81.64 last month and Cmtf Bell did likewise up to $74. -__ .'â€"__---v‘â€" The street commissioner presented his report and addressed Various intermgq. rions to council. They were after this manner: Are the sewers begun last; year so be continued this year?‘ Is any grano- litbic to be laid? Is any sidewalk to be pub down? Are tenders for cedar and plank to be asked? The commissioner begged to intimate that a sewer pump and a ditch plow wcu‘d be among the new things rfq‘aired this year and the Board of Workeis considering his entire deliver- anca. snuva .â€" Bell. I gm sorry this matter hens receiv~ ed such publicity, but sympathy cannot over-ride principle. As the guardians of the pubfic weifare we are compelied to act with promptness. 'Ypu, Mr. Mayor, "y. ,..u.. I'"’ l. say we are aevete. It is not a case of severity or leniency but: the defence of the public morals. Mr. Lennon said in cummittve that; we have a. mural town.

I did not want to be a councillor and did not ask a. vote. When elected I resolved to do my best. At the first few meetings I found the position a pleasant one and thought the harsh name given councillt [in the past was undeswved. At t“ :early meetings of committee Aid. Cran- dell harped continually on dismissing the police and called us cowards because we did not take the matter up. At lasr evidence was presented that we could not disregard and we decided on action with no dissenting voice. Ald. Lennon was then absent. I am sorry that the Mayor charged us with hitting behind anyone’s back. I am sorry now that I have lost. confidence in the council that the thine was not brought up at the next couizci: meeting. Since then outsiders have not the pull and evidently with success. Our weaker members who ought to be the e‘ronger have been turned over. The 'sgent of the police brave.- bzen busy. The ”FY ii “prominent men want the Cluet‘ unstained.” Who are those prominen: men; there names have not been given. Let us hear them that we may judge of their influence. We have undoubtel evidence.

After whale they will be for hardening Bell. A‘d. Lennonâ€"This ihing was ihreshed out in committee and esrried by four respectable men, men who had weighed the nutter thoroughly. men who under- stood it and gave their votes conscien- riou-ily notwithstanding the ixisinustions and the inuendoes of the Pusr that they were wire-pullers. men who do not have to go house-hunting for votes and who have as good record for 25 years as any on the smfi‘ of the Post. Councillors; have a right to difference of opinion. We know Mr. Bell has faults; so have we all. The committee did not define Mr. Bell’s duties and we have the csse of 1; by-lsw io-alght that is obecure even to the magistrate. I do not say that these men are not lex in doing their duties and any man will get that way unless looked after by the crammittee. See in Toronto where they are under the official eye and vet lax.

When Mr. Ray Was mayor the Cluef broke out, but gaVe the Mayor 3 written promise to reform or resign; In ’93 he did drink and was suspended and John Short was pm: in his place. The nexn election was run rather between Bell and Short than the two candidates for the mayoralty. The Bell faction won and it was the worst thing that ever happened the town for in the next two years the town was run up $9,000. In 1896 there waeazood council and no outbreak of the Chief; if there had been short work would have been made of him In ’_97 he was suspended by Mayor Smyth. Aid. Hornâ€" I am surprised that; C mt.

The mayorâ€"Perhaps at the former meeting I was not aware thatsuch a harsh course was going to be taken. The reason I said they were stabbing in the back was that the committee should have reported no council instead of taking action. They met in private session and apfointed themselves a committee to go to into and get constables to fill theg positions that were not vacant. Is that fair or honest? LI say it is not. I asked them not. to press Over it; front of the stove Chief Bell heaved a sigh of relief amd the democracy smmpeded for the open hair. ”hatter at our last. meeting because it ”w... unfair and I say so now. They asked for resignations. To whom could the police offer their resignations. Not to the committee but; to the mayor in council. In was a cowardly proceeding, I said it. was cowardly then and I do not hesitate to say so now. I heard to-day that; the liquor interests are being con- sidered. I may say that ‘no liquor men ever approached meâ€"except one who asked me about it. It is unfair to accuse men of that. We must not forget our duty to unfortunate men. It is not manly ro try and destroy a man instead of help him. We should try and lift men up and dothem good ins‘ead of crushing them down. Stretch out the heiping hand to the fallen inmead of jumping on them when they are down. (Aid. Ingleâ€" Amen). There was a great and clever man in his town and he went astray and some christian people shouted “down with him, cruci'ry him.” Ushers said “help him, give him a chance,” and he rose to his position again.

DEAR SIR, - As a resident and subscriher would you kindly extend to me a little. space: in your paper to partially review and make a few comments on those persis- tent. uncharitable and defamatory editor- ials that the public had to endure lately. Sometimes censuring or coercing the council, at other times lauding them for integrity beyond reproach, but all the time usmg insinuations altogether unwar- ranted, and certainly not elevating to the cunimunity, against the chief constable. Ald. Hornâ€"I looked for him a week, in that time only one merchant in twelve had seen Mr. Bell and he had not been seen by either the markec clerk or town clerk. The mayorâ€"That is not evidence. Ald. Horn -â€"If anouher man states that he was working in Bell’s place, is that evxdence. . To the Editor of I he W'atchman- W'arder. Now, this method of meting nut justice is in miniature a repetition of the famous Dreyfus trial, that shocked all Europe at the outrageous injustice of condemning and passing sentence before investigation or a public trial is! given. And it would seem that the writers of those articles aspire to emulate the famous Tooley street tailors. who thought. they voiced the nation when thev spoke, arm the public ouarhttoreadiiyacquiescein thisundignified attempt to deprieve a man of his character. and life maybe, for as Shakespeare says: “You take my life when vou take the means? whereby I_ live.” Aid. Jacksonâ€"In court: an exh‘blb is meat-dad as evidence and we all had that as Bell sat up beside Ali. Sootherau at the first investigation. _ _ The mayorâ€"I am ready to state my reasons for the course I have taken. What Mr. tlorn has said was proven about Mr. Bellwas never proven. There is no evidence but Mr. Horn’a word- Aid. Hornâ€"I’ll only say this: If any Company knowingly keep inefficient; em- ployee:. it is accountable for injuriel, or damages arising from that efficiency and this town will be responsible for any loss or injury that may come to its 0 tizens by Chief Bell’s inoompetency. I now declare myself free from} the blame when it comes. The high enconium passed on the integ- rity and purity of motive possessed by all the personnel ot our council is suggestive of aunotive. The true standard of morality and Uhrisman integritxv in this and other towns, is jusb in proportion to the practical honesty. truthfulpcss and charity dally put; imo practicum“. so high will be the standard and no higher, no manor how moon is p_rof_es~et_i. In conélueim. I am of on’uion that, Chiet Bell is no imam-d. nor hm-zgart, hue courageous and eificienb as a. Dime omcer. That he has agrevious hula admit, and Whenever actual neglect of duty xhrough this or other reasons renders his dismissal justifiable, let; the authorities di~miss him in a business manner without so much ado -Yours, em.
