The following extract from a letter published by ex-Councilman Roddis in The Omaha Herald , may be of i : tcrcst to many citizens. After urging public discussion of street improve ment tlirough the papers , and by the board of trade , Mr. Roddis continues : "The. contracts for grading were awarded and divided suddenly with out intimation to the said minority , and against their protests and votes. To such an extent were the available funds for street improvements frittered away in half finished work. That tliis noble majority dare not vote for a few crosswalks lest they nliould have to pay out of their own pockets. Now , sir ; with regard to that part v v of the ' .interview relating to the- funds for paving the gutters. I suppose the law restricts the enforcement of more than five per cent of the valuation of the property abutting , in any one year. Allow me here to say that the resolutions I introduced in the coun cil last summer , looking to the gut tering of Tenth street nnd Fifteenth street , between Farnani and Capitol avenue , Thirteenth street , between Farnaiu and Harney , and several in tersecting streets between Douglas and Harney were defeated by the sameob- jcc Jon , viz. : that when the proportion to be derived from the property abut ting was more than fire per cent , of the estimate , the tax could not be col lected. .But , sir : I learned later through m ) * intercourse as chairman of judiciary with the city attorney , that when the [ proportion was more than five per fcent. and- parties were unwilling to mythcwhole , the remainder -would uo collectable from the property the following year. Now , sir , the council will shortly have on liand twenty thousand dollars to lay out in street improvements that with ( say ) ten thousand dollars to be de rived from property for paved gutters , being thirty thousand , is a largo sum if judiciously expended which I be lieve it would be and tell wonderfully for improvement _ f . ft " * ybojbest - grade of goods and low utter's'Jffammotli Clothing House. 2001 Farnani cor. 10th St First big reduction of Millinery -R A&ds' this season , at § C.

Tlic liquor dealers arc preparing for a formidable campaign against the saloon law , which comes into ef- feet on June 1st. According to thr present law , al licenses expire July 1st , and Januarj 1st This does not preclude any one from demanding and procuring a license before the first of June to run to Januarj * 1st next , providing the party is willing to run the risk of having the courts sustain the present law ss in force , at least in this provision , until tliat date. All the liquor dealers apparently tire willing to run this risk , and City Clerk Jewet is accordingly kept busy making ou : licenses for "those whose licenses ex > pire July 1st. The mayor has no alternative bu ; to sign these licenses. "When the Slocumb law comes int < force notice will be sent to all tin saloons , requiring them to comph with its provisions. This the liquo men will refuse to do , and the author Sties will thereupon arrest several from the wealthiest and the poorest These "will be arraigned in the police court , and being fined , will refuse tc pay fines , whereupon they will Ix committed to jail. Writs habeas corpus will forthwith be applied for , and the matte in all its bearings will then come be fore Judge Savage in the distric court. From here it will no doubt b appealed by either side to the suprcm court for final adjudication , and in this way the constitutionality or un constitutionality of the Slocumb l settled for good. This comprehensive programme will of course , require a considerable out la } ' . The Merchants and Manufac turers Union , in whose name the con test will be cTirried on , has raisec about $7,000 to defray the expenses of all whojnay be arrested. Judge "Wakcly has been retained as counsel for those to be prosecuted , anc he is expected to make the biggcsi fight possible. To prevent wholesale arrests and avoid great confusion the saloon keepers will no doubt come to some understanding with the city authorities , and the latter will no doubt agree tliat a moderate number of arrests will suffice till some respon sible tribunal shall have spoken on the Slocumb law. ' Tliat those who pur chase licenses under the present law will have them sustained by the courts there seems to be little doubt among lawyers , for the reason that they are issued in solemn contract with the city , and those paying for them having performed their part , it is the duty of the city to stand by them until the expiration of the time for which they were issued. Tliis would therefore postpone the enforce ment of the § 1000 license provision of the Slocumb Law six immtlis , ex cept as to such as wish to get into business in the meanwhile. After July 31st no more licenses can be issued under the present law , but by that time every liquor dealer in the city will have procured his Ii lensc to January 1st The mayor maj' call attention to the new law by proclamation , but this is not decided. The nmycr is no more a special prosecutor under this law than in the cnforccmcir of all other laws. The law must be administered simply as any other law , tlic city marshal and the police , bein the directly responsible agents for its enforcement , if there be any. The liquor men are perfectly wil ling that the law should be enforcet in order tliat they may have an op portunity of testing it.but it is likely that they will object to wholesale ar rests.

BEE of Thursday evening ] notice you complain of the reportet rain storms destroying your work be fore it becomes solid , and in connec tion with tliis it is related that Com missioner Ford succeeded in taking ten feet of water out of a certain Like by means of connecting with the sewer. The latter is remarkable for its conception and engineering skill. If nothing more , it proves that water will run down hill Now , Mr. Ford , why not act on the same principle in repairing of the streets ? You will find nature to help you instead of running opposition ; in two month's time you ought to have every street in the city in good shape , if you put on the necessary amount of lielp and bring your work into practi cal shape , by reversing the present condition. Now the way to do it is to trim up and take front the sides the sand and soil which has been ivashed thereto , and deposit it ] in the centre of the strectjthcn ; rade from centre to gutter , liaving the former about thirty inches higher than the gutter , and you wi'l find it a very easy matter to make good streets and keep them so , owing to the read } ' drying and compact nature of the soiL _ Asa model to work on this sugges tion , nothing can prove a better description than the ordinary shovel which every laboring man ' uses in handling the soil.

TEOXELL & Co. MANAGER CLAM'S ' DEPMMi KxAppears to -LookecWTpon As a Fixed Fact In Some Quarters. There are a number of rumors con nected with the departurp'of General Manager S. H. H. Clark , ofthoTJmon Pacific j , to New York. It is generally believed | that Mr. Clark has been ten dered the general management of Mr Gould's southwestern system , and that he has been holding the offer'under consideration since liis return from California. A remark recently made by Mr. Clark gives color to this opin ion. He has been contemplating the purchase of eight lots In Hanscom Place near the property lately acquired by General Manderson. Mr. Clark , just before his departure.tpNcw ! York , refused to conclude negotiations , , say ing that it would be impossible * for him to settle upon the matter definite ly until his return. For two years past Mr. T. L. Kimball - ball has been actual manager of the Union Pacific , and Mr. Clark , by reason of ill health , has withdrawn himself from all business connected with the road. It is known that Mr. Gould has the highest confidence in his abilities and since he has turned his attention to Southwestern roads , has intimated very strongly his wishes for a change of air for his old manager. The result of the negotiations will probably j be known within a few weeks. Mr. Clark's departure for Now York is also connected with a rumor which has absolutely no foundation that Denver lias offered § 500,000 for the removal of the headquarters and shops to that city and that the proposition will be laid before the directors of the road at their next meeting. The U. P. could as little afford to move their shops as Omaha could afford1 to lose them. The large grants of land and bonds given by this city to the Union Pacific would be forfeited the.case of such removal and rover t to the city. Assurances from Mr. T. L. Kimball prove that the officials of the road are opposed to any removal of the shops and favor strongly their further en largement. A car load of choice Peachblow po tatoes just received at J. I.

"WHOLESALE ASD RETAJX. of - . EC How the Tolice leave Them Without a Peg to Station. The police are so alert these days that a man out of employment prowl ing about the streets of Omaha lias got to carry his character on hia sleeve , or account for his idleness. The city is teeming ivith employment , and the police take the' very proper ground that an honest man need riot be out of work. Hence , when the tramps appear before Judge Bcneke this overwhelming fact faces them , and it is amusing to hear their excuses for being unemployed. were arraigned yesterday had each his story to the effect that heMiad just arrived , and hadn't had time to look about for work. John Shay and Dennis Sweeney , two strapping young fellows , said they were on their way to a relative at Plattsmouth , who is a boss farmeraud , who was to give them employment. They promised to leave the city in five minutes , if released , but Judge Benekc extended the time to.G o'clock in the evening , and they started. William Clark didn't look like a tramp , but he did look somewhat lazy. Ho wore a bran new pair of pan- talopns , and gave the excuse that he had only been in the city a few hours when he was nabbed. Judge Benekc said he would take his case Airider ad visement. Aman'named E. Carrel pleaded his kis age , likewise his recent arrival , in extenuation. He said he was promis ed employment in a hotel and was al lowed to go after it. With two drunks , the docket for the day inthe ; police court was completed. One of these the judge decided to be a "generic" case , which is something new for "chronic soaker. " They were both fined. Many men were paid off on Monday the water works men for instance but he returns did not show this morning that any had made bad use of their money , or that there was any inclination to run the risk of loving steady employment.

A'Workman Buried In an Ex cavation. * About 10 o'clock a. m. yesterday a Swedish workman named Peter Olson ivas buried under an embankment at Tenth and Howard streets , and made a narrow escape with his life. Olson was employed with a number of others in making an excavation to receive the new water supply pipes , and at the time was engaged in undermining one side at a distance of about eight feet belowthe surface. One of the work men noticed that the earth was becom ing very insecureand yelled to Olson to get from under. Olson , however , did not understand English and so con tinued to work. Before the oilier workman could warn him of his clan ger the side of the embankmentbulgud inward , striking Olson on the right side and covering him under several feet of clay , with the exception of his head. The afi'.iir caused a great deal of excitement and a large party of men set to work" at once to relieve Olson of the heavy load of earth. In a very short time ho was pulled to the surface in a half unconscious condition. He was bleeding copiously from the mouth and his spine seemed to have been injured. The man was carried at once to Parr's drug store , im mediately opposite , where Dr. Parker rendered him such assistance as was in his power. The physician does not think Olson dangerously injured , and says ho will soon be all right again. Olson was afterward taken to his boarding house on Thirteenth street , near Jackson. THE OFFER ACCEPTED. The Fnnds for Artist Connor's Bau- nor Collected in the "Boo" Office. The proposition made by THE BEE the other evening in respect to n hand some banner to decorate the proces sion on Decoration D.iy , has taken definite shape , the expense therefor having been collected in TIIE BEE ofiice. Ex-Mayor C.ildwell , however , had scut two dollars towards the expense , and this , added to the twenty-eight dollars collected in THE BEE office , makes up the total cost of thirty del lars. lars.The The banner will bo very elaborate , and will surpass anything of the kind yet seen in Omaha. It will measure Gi liigh by 4i feet wide. The wood work will be of oak , and the whole will rest on two homzontal bars of oak. The side supporters of the ban ner will extend high enough to bring the banner f lirly above the heads of the processionists. . It is the purpose to picture on the banner "Peace" " " . and "War. Thus , the work will be two-fold. On the front side of the banner the element of . war will be vividly pictured a bat tlefield just after the battle , with the ground strewn with the familiar debris of war , and the .heavy smoke rolling away , in the distance. Standing in the centre will be pictured a war-worn soldier , waving the stars and stripes , and tolling of victory. On the reverse , emblematic of peace and the renewal ao of brotherly love , a Union soldier will be seen decorating the grave of a con federate. , The 'ttork will , of course , bti done in colors , and it is the inten tion of the artist , Mr. Conner. , to make the whole a beautiful work of art , notwithstanding the short time in which the work is to be done. The order was given yesterday , and the whole will be finished Saturday oven- ing.General General Manderson said yesterday that when the committee come togeth er this evening to finish up the details of the day's exercises , the position of the banner in the proccssiun would be * decided. His idea was to place it be tween the two posts of the G. A. R. , which would give it a deservedly prominent place. The kindness of the artist , Mr. Con ( ner , in giving his valuable sen-ices gratis for this work , cannot be too highly pra'sod. It is magnanimous in the highest degree. His labor on the banner ; is North fully one hundred dollars. Baker's Luok. Lew Baker made a stroke of luck , of immediately after the close of his cost trial. He obtained from the TJ. P. road the contract to grade one hun dred and fifty miles of the Julesburg branch ' of the road , and forthwith . started for the field of his new labor , taking six men witli him. He was to stop at Sidney and arrange for ship l > ping > eighty mules for the work. Baker T ker needed this stroke of fortune bad JJ , and from his well known energy , may be relied upon to build up his O shattered fortunes before Ions.
