Waterbury evening Democrat., 1890-01-01
The Campaign in 1890,

The New York World says; "Con- necticut elects a governor in 1890 and already the campaign has begun in that state. Bridgeport comes forward with the claim that, as she has never been the home of a Nutmeg governor, it is time that she was. William H. Stevenson, of that city, is proposed as the demo- cratic candidate for governor by the Bridgeport Leader. Mir Stevenson is a popular, warm-hearted liberal democrat, and if the party can get over the fact that he is the vice-presi1ent of the Housatonic railway it may nominate and elect him. As rule railway off, cials should keep out of politics; but Col Stevenson claims to be an anti -Consoli- dation, anti-monopoly sort of railway man."

WORLD OF SPORTS.

George Gore is drawing a salary of $1OO month from the Players league.
 Tim Keefe has a contract to supply the Players league with base balls for three years.
 It is said that Mike Herman refused to sign with the New York league club un- til he saw Pat Murphy's signed contract. When the contract was shown him he no longer hesitated.
 "No, I will not af1ix my autograph to contract until April 1,'' says Pete Browning. Pete looks as vigorous as a yOungster, and he has been conducting himself in commendable manner all winter. He avows his ability to "line 'em out" next season.
 Manager Powers has not only been doing good work for the American as- sociation, but for the Rochester club as well. He visited Waterbury recently, and signed Pitcher Fitzgerald. From thence he went to Worchester and ob- tained Tom O'Brien's signature. He wound up the trip at Boston, where he met Catcher Burke and signed him.

THE GAME SEASON CLOSED.

Violation of tine Law More Closely
 Watched Than Formerly.
 Every sportsman in the state who had an hour to himself and a dollar left for ammunition has probably worked in a new few farewell shots at scattering partrid ges or quail on the last day of the year. There has been more than the usual anX- iety to improve every chance of the last days and the last hours of the year. There k pretty settled conviction throughout the state that whoever tries to get another chance at the birds for the next nine months is q good deal of a villain. and whoever succeeds in bagging any in that time Is a very smart one into the bargain.
 In other words the Connecticut game law is now in operation. Within com parative short period it has been galvan- ized into life. Time was and ( ne needn't look back over twenty-four months to recall it, when only few particularly conscientious spnrtsmen stopped shoot ing or buying game between the first of January and the first of October, when large class of otherwise respectable and law-abding citizens did not hesitate to take a little sport on the sly when they had an especially good chance; when no host or hostess thought of emitting quail from dinners menu, come whenever it might through the winter; when marketmen bought up and quietly stored in their ice chests all the birds that were brought them through the colder months, and when the unscrupu- lous pot hunter found little difficulty in plying his profitable trade whenever the state of the market justified an outlay of powder and shot.

OUR SYSTEM Is WRONG.
If Wires are Cut During a Fire Wh
 Will Repair Thems

If Wires are Cut During Fire Who
 Will Repair Thems
 Some time ago the DEMOCRAT suggest ed that instead of paying one man $1 ,5OO a year to act as chief engineer and su- perintendent of the fire alarm system, a better plan would be to pay the chief 5000 or S1 .OOO year, and with the re- maining $500 or $500 and the money paid annually to the Connecticut Electric Company for repairs upon wires, hire another man to have charge of the fire alarm, whose duty it would be to keep the wires in repair. and in case of fire to see that the circuit from any section of the city was not cut off. This morning the alarm in the Brooklyn district onlyr ang twice instead of four times as 1t should have done. Acting Chief Bas- sett's services were required at the fire on Mill street and there was no one whose duty it was to attend to the trouble with the alarm in the Brooklyn district. Had there been a fire in that neighborhood early this morning, it Is claimed an alarm could not have been soun led
 Here is strong argument in favor of hiring one man to look after the fire alarm system at all times.

BASE BALL LEAGUE FORMED.

Delegates From New England Cities
 Meet at Springfield.
 It is very probable that base ball will have another boom in Waterbury this year. A letter has been received by Thomas H. Hayes, from the prime movers in the scheme for the formation of a New England league, urging Wa terbury to place team in the field. Nothing has yet been done toward rais- ing the $2, 800 necessary to place a strong team in the field, but Mir Hayes is conf dent that most of the stockholders of the old association will be in it once more.
 Delegates from Worcester, Hartford, Lowell and Springfield met at the Hotel Warwick, Springfield, last evening and formed a base ball league to be known as the New England league of profes- sional base ball clubs. The constitution ofthe Atlantic league was adopted with few changes, the most important being the settlement of the salary limit as not over S1,50O month for the players and manager of each club. No salaries, ,and the strict observation of the | rule is to be enforced by monthly affida- | wits, which are to be sent by the presi- dent or treasurer of each club to the secretary of the league within twenty four hours after the pay days. A breach of this rule will insure the expulsion of the offending clubs.
 The following officers were elected: President, F. c. Bancroft of Springfield; vice-president, A. w. Lang of Hartford; secretary and treasurer, J. C. Morse of the Boston Herald. Committees were also appointed to visit Providence, Waterbury and Holyoke base ball men, and the New Haven club was invited to join the new league. The applications of other cities will be carefully consider

 the Judgment of Judge Brnd-
 street nnd Orders n New Trial.
 Among the decisions handed down by the supreme court Monday was that in the case of Miss Fannie Benton vs John Starr of Guilford.

 The fire department responded to a New Years call, rung from box No 45. about 5:30 o'clock this morning.
