Now as to the police, I rcqtit sted the marshal to send as many as lie cou'd spare. He intituaud after coiuultation wi:h the efflcers that they did not want to go. I said it would be well to do so. but if not agreeable to them to t;o voluntarily, I would not order them to go. where duty does not call them, and the liw does not require it, unless the streets were blocked and re quired their effor's to make a p lsaane wav.

" The mayor would have adopted a .more digrifled position, one rnvre calculated to command respec", no matter how rad ical and uureascnaDle, had hi.- c w out squarely and stated that because of per sona! piej-.jiltce or the weitrht of influ ence brought to bear upon him he failed to Kef p his promise wi'h Father Mackin, nolead ot bis xultna'ion Ti ii. ig!-.. b:ve been no distortion o' tin- ;rutu on the mayor's part had he -.-aid hat be really expected to speak bi N -. 6 when he wen? there, mid was in Ihci disappointed when he was not urged if. d i so. and lurther than that he ws f.'lai enough to accept the cunflictitig in vip"'d to go to tna'. building after ) ..vine 'eceiv d a wa ning from n ;i-tle man down town who tuij-si-s hi. r--'f)Ut)lican p rly ::ot to ap pear on the stand with F'her Mackin m C urt house square. The attempt on the part of the msyor to shirk :he ref ponsibilitv of 'he f i'ure ot ti e police o turn out at the head of the Catholic procession is an t vidence of o e.rdice and in this as-ir ion too, ihtr Di'ivor's memory may be at f iult. As x te as 10 o'clock Fitd-y morcine Chief Miller inform d tn AkoU3 reoreaenta tive that the major h. d given him no instructions to have the police turn out, and that he could provide but a f .-w men if he bad, as two ot the policemen were sick. At the same time, however, a number of the police had c m ' out expecting instructions to bead 'he procession. The mayor's assertion that the police did not turn out because they did not want to is ridici.lous. The police are paid by the taxpayers, and the mayor also paid by the tuxpayers, is their chief It is not likely that any of the force would qtiest'on his authority, or seek a discre tionary right with reference to his or ders wheD properly made, no matter what might be their individual preferen ces.
