PRrESIDENT ARTHUR cortainly has rea- #on to be satisfied with the endorsement given him by the New York state con- ‘wention. Tre malcontents of New York, under ths leadership of ‘‘MaToo” Platt, sailing under the Blaine flag, hasbeen badly set down upon. Two days before the New York con- ‘wention met, Mr. Gould’s New York Tribune asserted with great positive- mess that it would be ubsolutely in the hands of President Arthur's opponents, and that the ‘‘anti Arthur victory” was =¢ complete and conclusive.” Since that time, the Tribune, and other of Mr. Gould's organs, farther ‘west, have had abundant opportunity to xevise their jungment on these mattess. How does Mr. Rosewater like the strike- the Blaine strike—in the Second district?- Republican, Xt strikes us that the strike in the 8ecound district knocks out Mr. John M. Thurston as delegate at large to Chicago on the first round. The Second district unanimously adopted resolutions in- structing the delegates to Chicago to Ia bor for and secure an anti-monopoly plank in the national platform. It is not likely that the Second district would ask the chief lobbyist of the Union Pacific to “commit himself against his employers. Trurwors is laboring with its problem of country roads. A convention of county highway suprintendents was held this week at the capitdl of the state, where the orying need of improved high- - 'ways was discussed. The only agreement xeachoed was that convict labor should be . employed in preparing material for and ing permanent roads.

The only point at issue between the strikers and the publishers of Tur Brr was the refusal on the part of the publishers to have its body type measured by an arbitrary scale. The striking printers set up the preposterous claim that they are entitled to a measurement of 1122 for 1000 ems which they set of our body type, because as they allege that type is bastard size, in other words below stan- dard. Now the highest authority and the only authority on this question in the International Typographical Union, and the constitution and general laws established by that body are the supreme law for every union printer. The constitution and genoral laws of the In- ternational Typographical Union for the past ten years have laid down the follow- ing standard measure of type: 8kcr, 1, (page 142, General Laws Inter- national Typographical Union of 1883,) some | on western roads for all time to come, and | without having belonged to the subordi- %o put the convicts at it would: immedi. nate union interested at least six months, may 8001 | office are not liable to charges for viola- be meen in the present session.

The following is the alphabetical scale for the measurement of type: Pica to bourgeois, inclusive, 12 ems In considering whether a font of type is 4p to the standard, the letters to be measured are the lower case letters from a to zinclusive, and these only— the twenty-six letters of the alphabet. According to the standard of the Tnter- national Union, the line of the the alpha- bet shows conclusively that the body type of bourgeois in the font used in this office is not only fully up to the standard, but one em, or one-twelfth, above the stan- abodefghijkimnopqrstuywxyz BEEBSEESBBHEBB In other words the striking printers have overreached themselves by pro- nouncing our type bastard when it really is above the established standard. That type is manufactured by Miller & Rich- ards’ foundry at Edinburgh, Scotland, one of the greatest type foundries in the world,” It is incommon use in Eng- land and Oanada, and extensively used on the Pacific const, No 1nstances can be cited where this type has been bastard- ized by printer’s unions. But even if our type had béen below the stardard and the claim for higher measurement was a good one, the Omaha Typographical Union is in honor bound to repudiate this strike. The general laws of the Internationsl Union as laid down at its last session at Cincinnati de- crees as follows concerning strikes: Pace 141, Seorion I. The Interna- tional union regards the resort to strikes as inexpedient except where the rules or principles of the International or a sub- ordinate union may have been violated. - OMAHA DAILY BEE -FRIDAY, o APRIL 25, 1884, [ A, S TN & a have a foothold in IL. dnulory. upon which he can rest in his struggle for the oontrol of the road. From the present prospect it 1soks very much as though the dominion of the Cable pirates, who have so long managed the road tor the robbery of the public and their own benefit, would be disturbed. Ex-Sexaror TaAver has a good deal of the bourbon in his make-up. He nev- or can learn and never can forget any- thing. His intense dislike of ex-senator Paddock promptshim to approve the reck- less and contemptible course of the Re- publican in the present campaign, and in order to got a fling at Paddock he goes out of his way, over an assumed signa- ture, to comour with the scurrilous anti-Arthur and unrepublican sheet, in its demonted ravings about dictation, General Thayer never had a warmer friend than the editor of the Brw, and certainly he cannot accuse this paper of undue partiality for Mr. Paddock. But we say to General Thayer in all kindness, that such assaults sre unseemly and un- becoming. As to dictation, the less said by General Thayer the better. He ought to be the last man to complain about fed- oral interforence, when he reflects how he exacted perronal fealty from marshals, collectors, postmastere, land officers, sur- veyor-general, postal-clerks, and other federal officials, when he was senator and Grant was president. There has besn no such interference in porsonal prefer- enco as he intimates, and the best proof of that fact is in the conduct of federal officials in the Omaha post office and custom house, BLOOMINGTON. Historical and Political, Personal and | General—Franklin's Me- trog olis. Corrospondence of THE Bee, BroominaroN, Neb., April 22.—As nothing has previously been said regard- ing our thriving town, through the me- dium of any of our city papers, a brief statement regarding the history, re- sources, facilities and advantages of Bloomington, will, we think, be of inter- est to the many readers of Tue Brk, in this section, Bloomington is located on the main line of the B. & M. railroad, and on the Republican river. The town was platted in 1872 by the Bloomington Town Com- pany, who foresaw the advantagos to ‘be derived from the location of a town in the midsc of an agricultural region so fer- tile and rich as that surrounding Bloom- ington, Bloomington is one of the youngest towns in Franklin county; its growth has been steady and permanent, and to-day contains more wealth than any other town of its size in the valley. We are located in the Republican valley, which is recognized as one of the richest agri- cultural districts in the world. In September, 1874, the county seat Recognizing strikes as detrimental to the better interests of the craft, it dirocts subordinate unions not to order a strike without at least a three-quarters vote of the union (all members being constitu- tionally notifiad of the meeting),and that no member shall vote on such question 8ro. 2.

THIS YEARS CROP OF QUEER PEGPLE. Men Who Imagine Themselves Great Ball Tossers and the Sport They Make For The Professionals. Philadelphia Record. “‘Oranks on base balll” ejaculated the veteran player and manager, Handy Wright, yesterday, in answer to the re- porter’s query, “‘Well, I should say there are cranks in base ball, and hundreds of them. They are becoming worse each year, and in- creasing in numbers, It is really remarlk. able how mon lose tneir heads over ihe game. And many of them are really dan- gerous, We had an exampls of this down in Providence last year, when a crank snapped a revolver in Carroll’s face. For a couple of months that man both- ered us. He hung around the ground and had but one desire to by gratifiod, and that was to bo permitted to pitch for us, He thought that he could knock out any batsman ever seen. The fellow wait- ed upon every visiting club and beseech- ed the manager to giva him a chance. The boys tolorated him and had a great deal of eport at his expense. 1 One day they got him to pitching. and then turned the hose on him. The crink did not like this, but said nothing, That afternoon we lost our game, and this so enraged the man, along with what was done to him in the morning, that he wait- ed at the gate with a big pistol. When Carroll came out he stepped up to him and pulled the trigger, but fortunately, the weapon was not di¢charged. The boya beoke and ran, and Mr. Crank opened fire on them. Molvey thought he was hit, and he was ecared badly. The fellow was ar- rested and sent to prison. There was another man down there, whom we christ- ened Base Ball Tommy. We had an old uniform that we dress- ed him up in, and thon we would set him on the fence to watch the small boys. That man wculd do anything that was wanted about the grounds, He was dead gone on the subject of base ball, “‘The most remarkuble thing in con- nection with these cranks is the idea which each of them has that he is the ¢-m- ing pitcher, the great phenomenal What Is It. That position is the most difticult in the field, yot the queer fellows all se- lect it, and a person would think from reading the letters [ receive that the bad players have all been eugaged and only the good ones have been left out. One man wrote me from Cincinnati. He desired an engigement. The fe'- low claimed to be the leading amateur player of the West. He spoke of the prominent pitchers ho had faced. and said; “I knocked the tar equare out of every one ot them .’ He offored testi- monials of his poweras a slugger, and said that in the thirty-seven gameshe had played he had attained an average of 871 for fielding and 425 for batting. I thought that 1'd better not try him. His playing was toogood entirely. “But the greatest player I ever heaad of was a fellow who wrote me from Boa- ton He said he was the swiftest thrower in the world, and that Sweeney and oth- ers whom he mentioned were no compari- son to him, Ths man said that he could throw 80 hard that no o e on the.nine could catch the ball. He wrote: ‘The batemen cannot hit the ball, so it will not be necessary if you engage me to have any men in the field. You can put the other eight man back of the bat, as it will take them all to stop the ball.” Well a8 we wero not_hiring cannons we con’ cluded to permit this opportunity to slip We dropped a man from cur rolls las. weekwho we thought was a great piayert until he was tried. The people who recommended him claimed that he had been practising all winter with a six ounce iron ball and had been using as a back stop a pile of rail- road ties, The enthusiastic person wrote: ‘This man has apuzzling drop curve and can pitch with equal facility with either the right or left hand., Well, after that we thought that the coming pitcher had been discovered at last. He played in two games, and was then quietley laid on the shelf. The boysalwaysgive the cranks a show, and make it warm for them. They toss the ball easy at first, and after the unsus- pecting individual gets warmed up and thinks he is doing great work some one sends the ball to him as if it came out of a gun, Two or three hot ones soon settle the ambitious fellows. Very few, indeed, of the cranks want to be made catchers, They are afraid to face the music, and out of the battle rather the worse for their rashness.” “Bometimes the manageraget takn said Charles Mason, of the Athlel ‘*Last season Atkisson went down to Indianapolis and asked Daniel O'Leary to give him a trial as pitcher. The manager Iaughed at him, but finally said, ‘All right; I'll make a fool of you.’ 8o he arranged a picked nine, and put the Indianapolis team sgainst them. Atkisson pitched for the picked team, and the regular nine could not hit him. The game ended with a ‘victory for Atkisson’s side. Then ('Leary wanted to engage him, but he refused to siga with him at any price, 8o it did not pay to be to funny. Last season we needed a catcher and heard of one in Massachusetts, He camo here and obtained $200 advance money. We thouaht we had a stone wall, sure, He caught for two innings, and then we were glad to get rid cf him. That same evening the fellow started back home, and we never heard of him again, We keep the cranks off our grounds when the men are practicing. They are ngufed as dangerous in the extreme, and a man nexer knows when his life is safo. Base ball being the sen- sation of the day, all the queer fellows have turned their attention to it* But the crop of cranks is a big one this year."” e — Reports from the Ranges.
