Editor of the Sentinel:
,l was very much pleased to read
your editorial of yesterday in refer-
ence to the wants of our city in the
lliie of “more police". ,
To my mind the main streets of our
city should be pstroled regularly, and
often. more especially In the evening.
i understand that our city has but
two policemen on duty at night—and
we can see at a glance that it Is an
Impossibility for thorn in cover even
the business portion of the city prop-l
erly. There should be a police officer
on West avenue, from 6 o'clock, p. m.,
to 11 o'clock, p. m., every night, more
especially on Sunday nights, going up
as far .as Cedar street, If not. to the
city line. The rowdyism and bellow-
.ing. for it is nothing more than that,
of a gang of young men. about every
night, is a shame to‘our city. Med
walking the avenue even (say nothing
of the women) we lnsulted without
provocation by this lawless set, and
strengths wondei why they are allow-
ed to conduct themselves in such a
manner, .and the peaceabie citizens
have no protection whatever. i hope
your question, whether we want, more
police. will be answered. by other peo-
ple, men or wouwu. who have been
insulted. and desire
from these lawless leilowu. Please
keep "knocking" uniil pmnmlou is
