Sev- eral of the reasons why Iso return it appear in the message Isentto | | you when I returned the ordinance providing for the detailing of a Ser- geant of Police, and_abolishing the | office of Captain of Police. To the | same reasons I again call your ats | tention, and beg to urge them as at this time possessiug increased force. ‘While the ordinance herewith re- turned does not seek upon its face to create the oftice of Sergeant of Police, ss did the one just referred to, but purports simply to abolish the office of Police Captain. Still it has, tomy mind, no merit what- ever. Notwithstanding, it is osten- sibly sustained upon the grouad that it will reduce the expenses of the police force. The fact is, our police force is too | small already, and this is becoming every day more and more apparent. In some portions of the city where a large and increasing trade is done | and traffic s busy till late eveining | hours; as for instance, on north Sixteenth street, and in other places where the better class of our city Captain of Police, and gave reasons at length.

Stephenson was adopted : | That the Mayor be reque | point three disinterested free-hold- ers of the ci | cause nt Gibson, 8 | ireet, through the lands of George | | Francis | Kountze has obtamed an injunc- | ) yor was | tion. fi m, Esq., will leave for | residences sre located, and where garrotings and robberies during the | last few months have been most frequent, not a single policeman is to be found after midnight, for the simple and sufficient reason that no one can be spared from the force elsewhere needed. Shall I add the well known fact, {hat on more than | one occasion when the City Council has this summer held its session till midnight, that some o1 its officers have considered the walk of a_mile to their home at that time of the night so dangarous that they bave | remained in the centre of the city all night. Did not public policy prohibit it 1 could state other and more start | ling facts than these, all tending to show that our present police force is too small. Again, complaint is made that in those portions of the | city for which details are made at | night,, tog detailed men are not at | their posts when needed 1gst. The responsibility for wuis inst- | tention to duty, can scarcely bc said to rest upon the City Marshal { Ho has such constant and arduous | labor to periary; during the d ay that { he requires and shouid }sve the night for rest. The very duty then most needed— that which looks after the men, and takes care that they are con- stantly & their posts, at night es- pecially; and are oi alert to de- ect cr?m and arrest the ofignders, is that which should be perfornied by the Captain of Police, which ofllte thisordinance seeks to abolish, g Sergeant, no merely detailed policeman, can syceessfully perform this duty. None but a regulgrly ap- pointed gficer—a Captal quietly diregt or control in such cases. Such Is human nature—that one selected from the ranks with- out aythority, save that which par- tiality seeks Lemporarily to confer, cannot succeed as an oversesr of his fellows, or & commander of his peers. True men, such as are pro- per to be selected for policemen, are always ready and willing to obey, and be guid- ed by those upon Wwhom authority hud been properly con- ferred upon those duly’ comumis- | sioned. Still the best of men revolt at the exercjse of authority over them by those whom much favorit- ism nd “dressed in a little brief gu- thofity. Again the City Marshal asks for a captain. He states to you in open Council that he peeds some one to attend to the duties of that office. True, he says he can detail some one to do that duty, but then, as we have seen, such detail will not best do that work. Notwithstanding we have not now a sufficient police force, jn numbers, it would, in my opinion, be far better, if the expenses of police must be reduced, to make the force eleven and a captain, rather than twelve without a captain, Other reasons, and it may be more potent ones than 1 have named, could be urged against this ordinance, but these it seems to me are enough to convince any well- wisher of Omaha, every good clti- zen that the policy of abolishing the office of Captain of Police jsa hazar- dous one, In closing, I desire to call your at- tion, especially, to the provisions of Section 88 of the eity charter. Tt reads as follows; “The Marshal skall have the su- pervision and control of the Police force of the city, and in that con- nection shall be subject only to the orders of the Mayor, and all orders of the Mayor relating to the direc- tion of the direction of the Police force, shall be given through the Marshal, or in his absence, the offi- cer in charge of the Police force.” This section is explicit and poin- ted, It provides that all orders of the Mayor in the absence of the | | | the creek at Nin {erre;x to Committee on Streets and | = Four Bohemians entered West | Jrad avenue, Mary’s avenue, petition for a grade to bé established on_South avenue. | Referred to committee on streets | | had said he could do the work with- teenth street.
