POLICE ARE NOT PLEASED. Kyner's Legislativo Bill Aflecting Frowned Upon I e Kyner's bill velative to the metropol- itan police force is meeting with a reception rom Omaha officers that is decidedly frigid T'he bill is to comeB®ore the legislature and it proposes raising salaries of patrolmen to not less than § than 385 per month. Oficers’ salaries not affected To offset this it court fees for volicemen attendin At present geants Metro- nor more are volishes trials patrolmen and receive £100 per month While there is no denying that the police a unit in tne for bett many of them make considerably more out of their court fees than the proposed raise would give them. A very large proportion of the men protest against the bill which, while purporting to be an increase in pay, has exactly the opposite effect One of the oldest ofticers on the force said in speaking of the bill that if it was brought before the legislature it would be the worst thing that appen, as it vould effect a practical reducti in the salaries of three-fourths of the S and at the same time have a tendency to militate _against the efliciency of the force. The abolishment of court fees would remove one of the incen tives to cnergetic pursuitof criminals. Another feature of the proposed bill is that all officers shall veceive full pay when laid off on account of sickness or injury It is claimed that this measure would~ encour age officers to be il on the slighcusetest ex and some of the drones would lay off a good deatof the time unnecessarily and receive the same pay as men who worked faithfully the year round. 1t is understood that one or two'of the officers who have fathered th proposed bill have gone to Lincoln to en deavor to secure its support by the Dou; county delegation on the supposition that it reflects the sentiment of the entire police partment ser- 285 captains wre desire r salaries, PROGRAM IN KANS, Bepublioan and Populist Houses Divide the Time. Toreka, Kan., Feb, 3.—All hope of settling the muddle in the house has been abandoned and the two organizations have settled down, quit quarreling and agreed to divide the ow to the close of the session.

Then they will adjourn and let the republicans do their worst hould the supreme court declu the laws of the populists to be void and the | yovernor call an extra session of the legisla- ture, the populist house will come back just the same and go through the form of re- passing the same laws. Of course, u tangle 1n the affairs of the state will resuit and it will continue until after the next general election in 1894, when a new house will be chosen. The populists profess to have no fears of the result of the clection. They do not believe that the re- publicans will dare to attack the populist laws and thus tie up the state government. They believe too, that public policy would compel the Supreme court to recognize the populist house de facto house and sus tain its laws. RESUBMISSION DE!
