Unclear civic plea on police chief selection process
A fragmented local notice shows clerk Isbell and others debating how to handle preliminary seditions and contraventions in appointing a police chief. The exchange hints at dissatisfaction with party politics and calls for residents to manage their own city affairs, avoiding personal clashes.
Malice In City Police Affairs Cited by Speaker
I have said nothing against any member of the police force. Mr Wanamaker will bear me in this. When I started to work on the cases in this city I found the officers have been very native. Many times I found that the officers had been to places ahead of us. They were on every corner. Dutton-holigg men got evidence to prove the guilt of parties implicated. I tell this to Mr Wanamaker and he will say so. Although there are other caves I could go to work on I will remain right here until this matter is settled.
