ISG1MI OMAHA NEWS.j A charter revision committee la ono ot tho possibilities, The present city chnrtor wao gruntc;l when South Omnha was In Its swaddling clotbce. Its rnpM growth ile man de a charter containing more advanced Idea and u much larger scope. It U the intention of tho present administration to appoint a committee competed ot three uncmbera of tho council, thrco well known citizens and tho mayor, making a commit ted of toven, to tako up tho work' of re vision of tho charter. Hy starting on this movement early It Is expected to havo all needed changes In shape beforo tho legisla ture mocts. An effort will then be mado to liaVo a bill pasacd granting South Omaha a now charter. A It Ih now this city In compelled to work under a charter tho samo as Beatrice, Hastings, Kearney, etc. Tho city odlclals of theso towna declined a year or bo ngo to allow a change In the present charter. This year It Is proposed to secure a separate charter for South Omaha. If it la dono n larger levy for lire nnd police, purpoeco will bo mado and rad ical changes In tho regulations covering tho removal of garbage will be made. Mayor Kelly wanta to glvo to tho perplo the right to haul their own garbage, provided they comply with tho lnws. Ho also wants to havo tho hauling of garbage for public departments placed on a competitive basis. Moro than this, ho favors a reduction of tho price now paid for tho carting away of dead animals. Tho mayor thinks that If the council fol- Iowh hlo recommendations a great deal ot inonoy will bo saved to tho taxpayers evory year by a reduction of priced. At tho same time better service will bo given. For a long tlmo tho city garbagemaater has used a dump on tho river front, whero tho city Is compelledto pay for the uso of tho same. It Is figured that tho city can woll afford to securo a dump for itaelf and thus save a monthly rental, or elso havo tho refuse hauled to Lal'latto In earn tho samo as Is dono with tho stock yards re fuse Tho subjects, mentioned are only a few of tho change contemplated. ,As tho city Is growing so rapidly It In deemed ad vlsnble In nomo circles to Increase tho com pensatlon of city omcers. Tho mayor Is allowed by charter a salary of $500 a year nnd It In tho samo "with the city treasurer. Tho city clerk gets 11,000 d year nnd other olUccre lu proportion. Quito a number of citizens favor Increasing tho pay of the mayor and treasurer to $1,000 a year and that of the clerk to $1,200. At prcaent tho city attorney gotn $100 a month, this office drawing tho best salary of any Jn tho gift of tho mayort Some changes In tho man agement of tho street department are bIbo advocated by tho mayor and for thin rea son thceo favoring a rovlslon of tho charter deslro to see the mayor mado ono of the committee. Ono of the most Importnnt needa of the city Is better fire protection and this point will bo ono of the strong features ot tho revised charter. In this connection Mayor Kelly said recently: "Our city has passed that point when It can forego tho best possible Are protection Our peculation In too densa and our bulld- ngs and business too large and important to hazard any chances that means and fore sight may remove. Our equipments for ex tlngulshing Arcs of magnitude aro noto rlously Insufficient. This is due, to a greater or Ices extent, to lack of means and a want of legal authority to procure tho same. An effort should bo mado to havo tho leglslaturo remedy this defect In our charter at tho session tho coming win ter. I trust that affairs will so shape them selves that wp may add a fire cnglno to tho present equipment and also maintain a suttablo fire station In tho Second ward Another hoso company Is also needed nnd thlo will be provided as soon as the funds will permit.

If street rumors aro true, Ed Johnston Is behind a movement to compel W. P. Adkln to provo his title to the offlco ot president of tho city council. Quo warranto proceed lng havo been started, It is stated, for tho purpose of compelling Mr. Adklns to go Into court and prove to tho satisfaction of those -who are opposing him that ho was legally elected president of the city council. On the night of tho election Johnston mado a com plaint nbout tho result and since tho dato of organization ho has been Industriously working to overthrow .tho local government as regards tho organization of tho council In this ho Is being ably seconded by several allies, who expect to profit by any change that might now bo made. Mayor Kelly in slsts that tho council was legally organized and ho quotes sections of tho statutes provo that ho Is right. As fnr as Adklns Is concerned he asserts that ho never sought the place, but as ho was elected ho proposes to serve and In defense of his rights ho pro Pobcs to secure tho best legal talent there Is. Former Mayor Ensor gives as his opln ion that Kelly Is right In the organization of tho council. At tonight's meotlng of the council somo steps may bo taken to quiet tho malcontents and put a stop to proceed ings which tend to disrupt tho administration. LINCOLN', April 23. (Speclal.)-Strcnu- ous efforts aro being made lu this county to Bccuro tho support of the Lancaster dele gation to tho state convention for tho can didacy of Q. M. Lambertson tor governor. It Is urged by Mr. Lambertson's friends that tho delegates havo a wrong Impression of what is really meant by his candidacy. They assort that in nnmlng him they wero actu ated by a deslro to bring about a state ot harmony In republican ranks and they In- slBt that Lambertson Is tho only man who can do this. Speaking of tho candidacy of Mr. Lam bertson, one ot the delegates to tho stnto, convention from this county said this morn- nc: "It la said that Mr. Lambertson a can didacy is not in opposition to anybody who j resentntlvo Convention O. V, Ib supposed to havo control over tho delega tion from this county. This, of oburso, means Mr. Thompson, who Is Lancaster county's preferred candidate for United States senator and who naturally has con siderable lnfluenco with tho delegation. Most of the delegates bcllovo that Lambertson Is running for governor simply to help him self In his senatorial ambitions, nnd that whether ho Is elected or defeated he will ba a candidate for senator, provided, of course, that tho leglslaturo Ib republican. There s but ono way In my estimation by which Mr. Lambertson can hopo to secure any con siderable support from Lancaster county, and that Is to announce that at the closo of the campaign, should ho bo the republican nominee, ho will not, no matter what tho re sult of tho election, bo a candidate for United States senator. "As tho situation stands now tho inter ests of those two men Thompson and Lam bertson seriously conflict and there is prac tically no hopo for Lambertson securing tho Lancaster delegation so long as tho Impres sion prevails that ho is a candidate tor the senate, for wo all know that Lincoln can not havo two senators." Charles H. Dietrich of Hastings was In Lincoln tonight nnd while hero denied tho report that ho had withdrawn from tho raco for tho republican nomination tor governor. "I havo not -withdrawn from tho race," ho said, "and certainly do not intend to. Tho roport that I hid declined to be a candidate Is false and without any foundation, as aro also tho dorogatory reports that havo been recently circulated concerning my record." A conferenco of local politicians favorablo to tho candidacy of O. M. Lambertson will be held In tho city tomorrow night. Andretrn nnil tlie L'nlveralt y. Acting Chancellor Dessey returned this morning from Chicago, where ho was the guest ot tho Nebraska University club ot that city at Its second annual dinner. While in tha city Dr. Dessey conferred with Or. Androws concerning tho administration ot tho Stato university and ot this Interview he said today: "Tho first morning after I arrived In Chi cago I had a conference with Dr. Andrews. I took along a number ot university docu ments to glvo tho new chancellor a better Idea of the size, growth and lmportanco of the Institution than ho formed while in the city, and ho seemed moro than evor pleased over tho prospects. Dr. Androws will b3 here August 1 nnd 111 havo to hang on un til then. Ho expects to leavo Chicago in a few days for Kuropo, butMn. Andrews will como to Lincoln sometime In July to arrange for n houso and will remain In tho city from that time. Dr. Andrews expressed himself as well pleased with what he saw during his visit In tho city nud ho spoko especially of tho protection afforded, the expenditure of university funds. As to changes In tho unl verslty. Dr. Audrews said that If nny are to bo mado they will bo made slowly so that they will como as a growth and not as a surgical operation." adjourned and elected I. D.
