Taking Police to Task.
To th? Editor of the Dally Intel
ligencer:
I don't desire to be a grouch,
for of all the most contemptible
people in this wide world, 1 thinl
a real grouch is the objectionable
Nor do I wish to become a chronic
fault finder, because all thinking
men are aware that Shakespeare'!
wwds were true when he said,
"It is easy fault finding." lt re
quires no brain, no talent, nor sell
denial to set up in the grumbling
business, but it seems to me tha<
1 have run acrvss a problem thal
is unexplainable unless some ol
our wise city fathers come to the
rescue. I was always taught that
what ever was sauce for the gan
der was sauce for the goose. Il
seems as if it is different in oui
fair city. Our wise police de
partment is so good as to furnish
a patrolman for all busy points on
our streets, to see that people ob
serve the "Drive to the right" or
dinance. ; This is a wise precau
tion perhaps, but it does look odd
to see two well groomed men
standing out in the street all day
long just for the purpose of tell
ing the few stragglers that failed
to know that such an ordinance is
on the book.
I thought they had the inter
est of the city at heart, to say
the least of it, even when they
called on a man about my size
>and personal appearance, to ex
Slain why he had neglected to
lock or hitch the horse that
?pulled the express wagon, while
he'went Into a store to deliver a
?package. Even when the record
er called on him to pay into the
:city treasury five hard earned dol
lars', I only thought that the of
ificrs had. been dreaming of the
;awful wrecks that could so easily
pe caused by the staid5 old horse
ifunning away with that heavy
yagon down Main street.
[ I know th?t such- carelessness
?lias really been the cause of the*
death or serious injury of help-:
less'women or poor innocent lit-i
ftle children, for this reason 1 made;
really! no kick about the fine, jj
lust proceeded to learn how to
?block a horse. J. think ? ..by.. this
time 1 am ?dept ?t this art if nbth~
ing oise. ? do- know how io fas
ten my hots? every time before I
leave Him, even for one single
minute. ;
; As. a boy 1 never objected to
"seeing the bottle dance" or join
ing th?: se venal secret societies
for which fun. loving young folks
<are noted; because. 1 was always
thinking of the fun soon to coma
So me out bf sting the other fe!-:
lbw cbrhe through. That is the way
1 feit when that hard earned;
(''fiver" slipped from my fingers. 1:
said deep down in my heart then,
S would not be the : only "goat"
?hd really got a little pleasure otlt
bf anticipating j seeing the othe?
fellow frown when he, too, had to
Hake double apse of "recorder:
jqjuinine.'i
;, Ever since that memorable day,
j have watched to see the frown;
settle on^the other fellow's face. I'
did not do this because 1 was an-,
xlbus to: see any one get tn trou-i
ble, but in so much as- it was to '
happen 1 thought it no harm to.
SSgfc ?he spectacle.7 Not ? ? ?ft single1
idiy thas ;pas*ed but 'what several
unsuspecting' driver went in and
left rtheif horses absolutely- foot,
loose on 'the squ?^ r tried to
make ^yklt th)ttK 1h?t the traffic
poIic?m?niiRSvwV^l -*s? the others
who were gassing ?bout were sb
very busy looking foi" some on:1 lb
direct .io drive, to the ''tight anil
real close to the curbing loo,V
that they failed to see the xian*
geroiis charges ; that was so, lrabl?
tc? spread terror" and devastation.
In a mad. race down th? crowded
street. !
?n Monday the 19th, a friend,
.te-m^lfcwetit 'down* to maker
sure that horses ?tere really left
standing without blqdc. br oth?r
system of hitching; We saw ieams
on-uic sq?$rciii ibis c?ndi?ion. I
sra* stlfl Itt hb?d the city governV
itiertt were ^^i^M^m^i^
out bf. m-mSi spoon M the*
h?xt day which was list Tuesday,
?when t flttual?y saw the chief and
honora ?Me -recorder tum off thtfr
; course for jdhp that wds not -Sap
Tied with, standing l?bs? bri: the"
street proper/ ^
feet upon the ?ldc; walk and was
actually; pbkWjr Ms head into the
faces of the crowd as they.seried
wm. > .. . ...
Then Is when I began to wot*
der. 1 asked myself the question;
if 1 had done anything that would!
put me Mn bad" with these oft!-"
cers. If such has been the case it |
has slipped my recollection. il
have tried to be a good law-abid
ing citizen of your city, 1 am a
sober andilard working boy who
is trying to make good in the cold
hard world. If they "had it in"
for the express company, for any
reason it was no fault of mine. 1
don't shape the policy of that cor
poration. They don't often ask j
the delivery boy any advice be
fore taking any special move. So
if it was a thrust at them the blow
was misdirected. U hit nobody
but me. l.'was the man who had
to pay the Tine out of forty dol
lars per month, lt did go hard.
Now I don't desire the officers to
fine others, but 1 do ask them to
explain through the columns of
this paper why all horses do not
look alike to them. I don't think
there is a- single man in the city
of Anderson who ever saw a horse
of the breed that my horse is ever
fun away,at all. They just don't
do that kind of stunts. Now 1 feel
that this was an outrage, because
1 have to stop and go into the
stores hundreds of times where
others are. called to leave their
horses once and a while. There
is but little involved in blocking a
horse wheri you leave him, but my
five dollars was dear to me, and I
can't see why it is worth a fine
of such magnitude, for me to do a
thing that other people are doing
every day-right under the very
eyes of the ?'?ry officers, and they
failed to get even a reprimand. I
am in favor of this law. 1 wish
to see it enforced, but I do think
they ought to stop horses from be-:
ing left ld?se On the square, r
else give toe my five bucks-back
and apologize for the -?grief and
worry they .have caused me.
Respectfully submitted,
T. H. BELVIN.
