ThEY ALL CONDEMN IT
Yesterday there were mal ) expressions of
opposition and indignation with reference to
the bill upon the part of property owners and
prominent ciizens :
J. :1 Motcalf-\Vlmilo I have not male a
study or time bill , I believe 1 knul its
salient features. As I understand It , It
alms to take away from time executive head
of the state the power ot appointment and
seeks to Invest the appointive power In the
bands of state officials Jointy with the gov-
ernor. Herein Is It wrong In principle , for
you Ilgbt as well elect ! president and talc
from hIm his rightful bower of choosing his
own officers. Altogether In Its best sense
the fro and police commission of Omaha Is
not a part of time stato. I Is , I consider , bad
poltcs and ought not to IJass. Much as 10
desire time removal of the fire and police departments -
Ire anl pol
partments from the domain of poltcs , I
believe It can be better aecomplshel through
time well established domain of the executive
office. The governor has rights and whether
ho Is republican . democrat or populIst , these
rights should be respecter , for therein Is
good goverment
Euclid Martin-The proposed fire and police
bill now before time , legisiature. for disposition
Is open to considerable adverse criticism .
I always believed that special legislation of
that character enacted for the particular
of gratifying IndivIduals Is
purpose gatfying always
ball for the community. The people and
taxpayers will be the sufferers. I am op-
posed to turning over the reins of municipal
government to a secret society of any kind ,
or placIng the people at the mercy of a
political clique , because I Ielove that the
fire and police shoull be divorced from poll-
tics. Under the present law I think I
goad board of Ire and polee commissioners
coulr be appointed. I Ihould regret to see
the efficiency of the Ire and police depar'r
meat crippled In any manner b1' politics .
TIlING ALL .
DAD TING AHOUND.
Dr George L. Miller-I think that It
would be unwise to deprive the governor
of the power and responsibility of appointing
a board 'of fire and polc9 commlssloner
I think that mill governments , either state
or municipal , should have I fixed responsi-
biiy In the appointive power and I do not
believe It just to divIde that responsibility
Into three , and especially impose a portion
pf the responsibility of bad appointments
an the minority of the appointing board
who voter In the negative , hut who woull
naturally come In for a share of dust In
reaping the whirlwind of public indignation
over appointments that might bo distasteful
to time people of this city. Dy all means let
the law remain as It I
Mayor Demls-Inasmueh as I am directly
affected by the bIll It would not bo proper
for mo to express any opinion I may say ,
however , that In so far as the measure can-
templates time removal ot the IJresent chief
of the Ire department It receives my Unqualified -
qualified condemnation. The commission
wont to a great deal of trouble to get a
satisfactory man for that position and I Is
now its unanimous opnlon [ that I could
not halo done better. I scoots to me that I
Hedel should bo removed nol the propret
owners would rise up In revolt ,
A. I' . Tukey-I IIav6 not partcularly Interested -
torested mYBel In the bill , but as a general

at present all It would be wise to let well

would bo an inexcusable proceeding. lbo-
