Tho plumbing and heating and ventilating

sion, only about five minutes and Its re
port In favor of awarding the contract to

Tho attorney for tho board was In
structed to stipulate In the plumbing con
tract the use of dark Tcnnesseo marble

South Omaha News
At the request of members of tho Board
of Education Frank Koutsky, treasurer of
the school district, has prepared a state
ment showing tho balance In tho school
fund at tho present time. According to tho
figures prcpnrcd by tho treasurer nnd sub
mlttcd to tho board, there wns, at the close
of business on June 3, a balance ot $655.56
In tho school treasury. When the liquor
licenses wero paid In $79,000 wns available
and to this was added tho balance then In
the hands of the treasurer and a call for
warrants Issued. Tho call was for all out
standing school warrants. At tho tlmo ot
the call there was a balanco of $90,449.37
and In taking up outstanding warrants the
treasurer has paid out $89,793. 81, which
leaves a- balanco now on hand ot only
$655.56.
Since this statement was rendered the
city council has granted thirteen liquor
licenses, to be Issued as soon as the money
Is paid Into tho treasury. This will add
$13,000 to the bnlanco. and mako ninety-two
saloons In South Omaha. In addition to
this amount there will be the stato ap
portionment of about $10,000 and tho levy
on tho valuation as returned by tho as
sessors. Of late the board has been going
the limit on the levy, which Is 20 mills.
The board Is required to mako out an Item
ized statement of tho amount needed for
tho various funds and forward the same to
the county commissioners prior to tho mak
ing of the annual levy. Owing to the pros
ent condition of the school funds and tho
desire to make Improvements and additions
to tho schools the levy' this year will doubt
less bo the same as In the past.
Counting the thirteen Ucen'sos to bo paid
In makes $92,000 from liquor licenses-alone.
Then comes tho stato apportionment of
$10,000 and a net levy of say $35,000. This
will glvo'a total' revenue of $137,000. Of
this amount, however, practically $90,000
has been expended, which will leave a lit
tle over $47000" to pay tho running expenses
o'f the schobls from September until the
license money Is again available In May,
1902.
With the Increaso In tho number of teach
ers and Janitors needed, owing to the
growth of the schools, the salary roll for
tho school year of 1901?1902 will be close to
$65,000. Then there s coal at $5,000 and
repairs the samo amount. Supplies wilt cost
between $4,000 and $5,000. so that It will be
scca there will bo no money In sight for
the erection of even a ward school build
ing unless bonds ire voted.
Even at the best the members of the
board arc up against a hard financial proposition.

City Attorney Lambert and the special
agent In his employ have been engaged for
some tlmo collecting evidence In two or
three damage cases soon to come up In tho
district court. In two Of the cases on the
call the city attorney Is confident that he h
In' possession of enough evidence to knock
out the cases. One 'was filed after tho
time limit allowed by)law and the other, It
Is nsscrted, was n palpable piece of negli
gence. Tho employment of n special officer
for tho legal department Is for securing
evidence to be used In the courts which
could not be obtained otherwise and as the
expense Is slight tho ' practice will most
likely bo continued until tho close of tho
present administration.
