Omaha daily bee., 1889-10-07

There is o general feeling of regret
throughout base bail circles in this city that
the local management intend to sell what
ever member of the home team they can get
their price for. So far Crooks is the only
man who has been absolutely disposed of,
unless the rumored sale of Cooney yester-
day turns out to be true. However, the
Omaha management are not deserving of
any censure in this matter. They put up
their good hard cash to sustain the club here,
and what have they received IN turns 1t is
unbecoming IN those who have sat back to
talk about what they would do under the cir
cumstances, when the management referred
to were the only ones to do their share to-
ward giving the city first class ball. Now
they are perfectly willing TO divide the
responsibility and proiits with any
other capitalists or enthusiasts who see
proper TO put up little of the stuff. Had
the club received the patronage its fine work
deserved there is no doubt but what the
White Sox combination would have been
kept intact.
However, there is no occasion for any
apprehension that we will have no team
next season. That is n settled fact, and
while il may not come up to the standard of
the aggregation just disbanded, 1t will be
strong enough to give interesting battle to
any of the clubs in next years arena. The
nucleus for II fine team will be left over at
hli eNtnlS, anu lnb are uDJ
made of the material to sit idly by and not
secure enough additional talent to represent
the Gate city in creditable manner
upon the diamond. President Mccormick
is sedulously at work endeavoring q
to secure new grounds, more accessible and
convenient than the present park, and in case
he succeeds he declares that no expense will
be spared in engaging team that will be
fully up to the playing strength OF the one
that won the penuant this year. Base ball
patrons who have been depressed by the re-
ports OF probable dissolution of the local
corporation can brace up under the assur-
ance that such aproccdure is utterly out OF
the question. There is going TO be
money, and big money, too, in base
bali in this city, and there is not even a pos
sihiliuy of the abandonment of the enter
prlse.

Two Bad Boys Sentenced to the state
 Reform school.
 Six more of the gang of bad boys who have been running wild about the streets stealing anything they could carry were before the police court this morning charged with truancy and incorfigibility The police have been watching for the lads for several days but they have kept off the streets since the arrest of several of their companions few days ago. Officer Dodds started out at o'clock this morning and arrested the boys in their homes.
 Willie Dumphy, aged 15, was one of the acknowledged leaders of the gang and had nothing to say for himself. He was sentenced to the Reform school. His brother George, aged II, was given another chance to do better.
 John McLaughlin,a bright looking lad of 14. was also sentenced to the Reform school. He has been arrested three times before for theft and was one of the worst of the boys. He acknowledged stealing bottles of liquor from several saloons on South Main and East Main streets.
 Charles Keefe, aged 12. who once stole horse and wagon and drove to Wood bury, promised to do better and sentence was suspended. His brother Michael, aged IA, was the only one of a family of eight old enough to help his mother. and he was allowed to go.
 William Woods, the last of the gang, was not found until o'clock, and his father did not know of his arrest. The case was adjourned until Monday.

COMMUNICATIONS.
To the Editor of the DEAocnAr:

To the Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 Would it not be we'll for the city gov ernment to take into consideration the propriety of making the tenure of office of the chief engineer and assistants of the fire department depend on the effici- ency of the incumbents to perform the duties required, rather than the method of biennial elections? The office of chief engineer of the fire department is one of the most important offices at the dis posal of the city government. The property and perhaps the lives of some of our citizens arc likely at any moment to depend for protection OF the skill and efficiency of the officers of the fire de partment. At the present time the city is fortunrte in possessing the services of chief engineer whose. able and skillful management has during the past six or seven years made the fire department a credit to tLe city. An outbreak of fire may at any moment endanger life and property, the protection of which would in a great measure depend on the judg- ment and skill of the chief engineer and his assistants in handling the fire depart ment. What guarantee have our citizens from the possibility of some incompe- tent aspirant being elected to. the office of chef of the fire department at some of those biennial elections for tn tt office! The election of an Incompetent person as chief of the fire department would undoubtedly be very serious mistake. The chief and officers of the police de- partment hold their positions as long ss they perform their duties in proper and satisfactory manner. The chief of the fire department and assistants hold office from one election to another. Why, might it be asked, is the last named of- flee left open to aspirants for political crumbs who regularly appear at the bi- ennial election for this office, but who, fortunately for the well being of the fire department have not yet been elected. It is about time for the city government to secure the services of the present eff cient chief engineer and assistants for flu ture years by abolishing those biennial elections of the fire department officers.

The eX-senator and chairman of the democratic national committee has apparently recovered from his late serions illness. So brig at and robust did he look that Conductor Colt jocosely remarked to him Il have read in the papers, MT Barnum, about you being dangerously sick but your appearance doesn't indicate anything of that sort" "No," replied Mr
 Barnum with cheery laugh, ''the stories you refer to must have been republican lies." MT Barnum had certainly every appearance of being fully restored to health, and was as cheery and chipper in his manner as boy. The trip is the first extended one he has taken from
 home since he was prostrated about the date of the last election with an illness which caused his life to be despaired of.
