Some of the String * That
Arc Heine I'ullcd , .
At the present time the city hall U the
Mecca of city politicians. The ofllco of
Mayor Bcmls Is the most frequented corner.
The magnet that draws the politician there
Is a strong ono and its force Is Irresistible.
More frequently it is personal interests to
bo served that directs the footsteps of the
manipulator of wires to his honor's quarters ,
but occasionally it is curiosity that prompts
the visit. No matter what the circumstances ,
the politician drifts in and out during the
day. This has been going on lively for a
week , and bolero the eventful first Tuesday
in July rolls around It will become a mad
scramble for an audience with the mnvor.
Omaha's chief executive pormltstho latcti
string to dangle from the outside , and all
comers are trotted with courtesy and their
words given duo weight. Simmered down , it
is a procession of appeals for the appoint
ment of friends of these In line as members
of the Hoard of Public Works.
The Jlrst Tuesday of July of each year
brings with it a charter provision for a
roorganl/atlon of the board. The mayor is
the appointing power and the council the
confirming. Already thcro have been filed
with Mayor Hemls nearly a score of ap
plications. The mayor listens to all ,
keeps his own counsel and when the proper
tlmo comes his views on the matter will DO
made known in the shape of appointment.
AVIioro the Solution Ilun
There are two keys to the situation. One
is iu the possession of the mayor , while the
courts hold the second. There exists n
question as to how many members shall bo
appointed. A case In court , which will 1m
reached within the next week , will probably
decide the matter when a decision Is
reached. This is a suit brought by Major
Balcombo to recover increased salary as a
member of the board. When the now charter -
tor became a law it was found that under
its provisions the mayor should appoint ono
member each year subsequent to lbS7.
When the charter was sent to Lincoln It
provided that thrco now members should
bo appointed in ISO : ) , ono for one , ono for
two and ono for three years , and ono mem
ber annually thereafter. A sleight of hand
performance was successful In eliminating
the figure 1893 and substituting 18S7. Ono
{ member was to bo chairman at a salary of
i- ? 2,500 , another sewer commissioner and the
third street commissioner at a salary of
$2.000 each per year.
This loft the charter provision In a badly
mixed state and many constructions have
boon placed upon it. City Attorney Council
toolc the position thai the mayor should 1m-
) / mediately designate the members to scrrq as
45' sewer and street commissioners. Acting
upon the attorney's suegestlon the mayor
made the designations to the council. Not a
member of the council favored standing by
the mayor , and that body refused to recog
nize Major Fumy us sewer commissioner and
Major Balcouibo as street commis
sioner with an Increased salary of
$3,000 per year. The Judiciary committee
looked Into the matter and reported that tlio
designations should not bo made until July ,
at which time the thrco majors would have
to step down and out , as they were legislated
out of the ofltce. The majors went ahead
nnd Bemls' ucsis-
served according to Major -
nutlon. When the pay roll came in and their
names were there with the Increased salary
opposite the council promptly knocked the
item out. This caused Major Baleombo to
bring his suit , nnd as ho expressed It , "not
BO much to sccuro the small amount in addi
tional salary , but to establish the fact that
the mayor's dcsignaTion was proper , and that
my tenure of ofllco docs no't end in July of
this year. "
Waiting on the Court.
As. Mr. Connell had assumo-i an entirely
, different position than the members of the
council , Judge Wakeley has been employed
to appear and show that Major Balcombo
should .not have been designated at the
tlmo ho was and that three new members of
the board must bo appointed the lirst Tues
day in July.
When the courts pass upon the matter
Mayor Bemis will then know without doubt
whether ono or thrco members are to bo ap
pointed. Ho is desirous of having the point
at issue settled immediately. So are the
numerous candidates.
The applicants represent men of all elasscs
nnd conditions. Among the names men
tioned in connection with the appointment
are the following : J. \Vlaspcar , Charles
Unltt , Dick Smith , W. J. Kennedy , ox-Coun
cilman Bailey , George W. Tillsou , Henri
Cleburno , Gconro M. Cooper , John G. Wil
lis , William Mack. W. N. Nason and Curtlss
Turner. Major Birkhausor is also men
tloncd to succeed himself. The imino ol
Plumbing Inspector Duncan is also spokci
of , but Mr. Duncan gives it out that ho is
not a candidate and is not seeking tlu
position. The claims of each are belli ) :
vigorously pushed all along the lino. Mayoi
Bemis says ho has nearly a score of name !
before him , but ho maintains silence am'
does not glvo them out.
"llniro Up"
is a tantalizing admonition to these who al
this season feel all tired out , weak , wlthoui
appetite and discouraged. But the way It
which Hood's Sarsaparllla builds up tin
tired frame and gives a good appetite , 1 :
really wonderful. So wo say , "Tuko Hood's
nndjt will brace you up. "
For a general family cathartic wo con
fldently recommend Hood's Pills.

NICE BUMMER JOB.
Commlmlonor * Giving llmploymnnt to
Clorku Copying Some Oittlnwcd Kccimli.
The county commissioners h.ivo just hit
upon a schcmo by which they will succeed
in removing several thousand dollars from
the treasury without replacing * a corresponding
spending amount or any Dortloii thereof. In
other words the commissioners have laid
the plans for providing places for six or
seven additional clerks.
At the last session of the board a resolu
tion was adopted , Instructing the county
clorlc to purchase books , hlro a force of
clerics anil at oneo nut them at work , mak
ing a copy of the delinquent tax list from
18.VJ to IS'Jl. inclusive. In addition to this ,
the resolution instructed him to order dupli
cate tax lists for the year 18'jy. that ho may
have an exact copy of the books In the ofilco
of the county treasurer , showing all of the
lands and lots In the county , as well as all
of the personal tax. Those duplicate books
are to bo In the custody of the auditor , who
has been Instructed to have the vault in UiJ
ofllco formerly occupied by the county sur
veyor renovated and put in shape for the
safe keeping of tip books.
The county treasurer will bo compelled to
make his receipts in.lrlpllcato instead of in
duplicate , ns at the present tlmo , sending
coiiies of the receipts , as well as copies of all
warrants and lists , to the auditor once each
week. The information Is given out that
this now plan of doing the county business
is for the purpose of having and keeping a
complete chock uiwn the county treasurer.
Some of the olllcials , however , look upon
It as simply a move to put another lot of
clerks on the pay roll.
The uork of making up the delinquent list
will require the hiring of a number of clerks
for several months and will leave the books
In the s.imo condition as they are now in the
treasurer's otllco , with the oxcoptlon that
the auditor will have a copy of the names of
the men who failed to p.iy thuir personal tax
during the territorial daysot the county. All
of this old tax is uncolloctablo and was
dropped from the lists some years ago.

BRIDGE OF SIQHS.
County CommUnloiiors Will Glvo It Their
Attention Toiluy.
The session of the Board of County Com
missioners this morning promises to bo a
most interesting ono. The business booked
for it is the consideration of the First ward
assessor's appraisement of the Union Pa-
cillc bridge.
The west one-half of the bridge Is assessed
f in Douglas county at § 103,000. , The point
i where the Douglas county valuation begins
s Is at the center of the suspension span and
0 all of the portion west , and including the
? trestle work , is returned by the assessor.
r A. i W. Scribncr , tax commissioner for
3 the road , has llled a protest against tlio val-
1 nation , alleging that he returned the valua
tion at $80,000 , nnd that it was raised to
$105,000 by the assessor without the knowl
edge or consent of any agent or rcprcscuta-
tive of the company ,
The county commissioners will hear testi
mony on the application for a reduction ot
the valuation and have summoned the wit
nesses to bo present ut 10 o'clock this morn-

BLTFALO , Wyo. , Juno liS. To the Editor of
THE BEE : The cowboys' race to the World's
fair from Chadron seems to us to bo little
clso than an advertising scheme for the
benoflt of Chadron and llDoc" widdloton.
When entries wcro flrst Invited , ono of our
most skillful and determined race riders ,
Charlie Simmons , an old-tlmo cowpunchcr ,
who owns and raises some of the best stock
in the country , determined to compote. Ho
sent the necessary entry fee , and put both
himself and Ills horses Into steady training for
the expected race. Simmons is a horseman
by birth , taste and training , a very light
weight , and a bad man to beat over any
course. His horses are well bred from gooil
stock and to our thinking the interests of
Wyoming were pretty safe In his hands.
Others scorn to have thought the same.
About three weeks ago ho received a letter
from ono II , Weir , the secretary of the race
committee , returning ills entry money , and
politely rugrottlng that the race would not
bo started. This was very disappointing ,
but the loiter was then believed to bo written
In good faith. Just thirty-six hours or so be
fore the race began , ho received another pollto
communication from the same Secretary
Weir , saying that the race would take place
after all and that entries vtould bo accepted
at the post. It was hoped that ho would
Jlud it convenient to take part. The letter
was dated Juno 'J nnd only reached Buffalo
on Juno 111 Entirely too Into for anything
without wings to got to the starting place
from Johnson county. Meanwhile certain
o her competitors , who apparently had the
Insldo track , wore in constant training nnd
eventually started.
The whole affair , Including the dramatic
sccno at the start , was cut anil dried evi
dently tor nome consumption. Whether the
$1,000 will bo forthcoming wo know not , but
the prizes olfered by Colonel Cody and the
other premium givers are no doubt genuine.
Wo learn from private sources that a rider
from Kansas by the name of Stephens is
likely to upset tlio t > ot. Wo heartily wish
him success. Otherwise all respectable cowpunchers -
punchers are lluula to bo classed with "Doc"

Preacher , Hanker , Coal man , Lawyer , Doctor , Traveling

look well in warm weather ? Did it ever strike you that
the man that looked most comfortable . looked best these

strike you that there's no place like ours to get thcso
things at moderate prices ?

That our straw hats at a quarter are exactly the same
sort of hats that our neighbors get I'lfty cents for ? Did It
SJ strike you that the black alpaca coats tlr.it we sell for
seventy-live cents are usually a dollar and a quarter ?
that we're opening thin coats , and coats and vests , this
week , by the thousands ? That we carry any and all
kinds alpacas mohairs serges brilliantinus iianncls
cords drap d'etes blacks and colors ; regular extra
