IMPROVEMENT PLANS TO BE LAID OVER J, actios el 4b Legislature on Charter Mny Have Imgrtaat Bearln on tha General Scheme foe Work. It has practically been decided to defer action on the proposition to hold a apeclal election for the voting of bonds for public Improvements ' until next spring. The Taxpayers' league requested the mayor .and council to isaue a call for a special election for the voting of $UQ,000 of bonds ' tor parkp and a city hall building. A special election will coat about S00 and those Interested do not think It advisable to go to thla expense just at this time. , "There Is no use," eald a city official last night, ""to bring up a bond proposi tion at a regular fall election. Thla has been tried a number of times and the proposition haa always been defeated. More than likely tha matter will be al lowed to rest where It Is until tha election next spring. With ojily local affairs to Interest the voter more attention will fee paid to Issuing of bonds for public im provements " Another reason for deferring the matter until the spring election is the hope that the city charter niay be so amended by the legislature next winter as to per mit the Issuing of bonds for a general sewer aystem. As the law now atanda, only $3S,000 may be Issued for the extension of the present sewer system. What Is wanted la a large sum of money, Just how much has not been determined upon, te thoroughly overhaul the presant sewer system ani make enlargements and ex tenslsna. Those who have Investigated this matter of eewera aaser that $IOT,0C3 could be spent to good advantage la build ing new aowers. The rapid building up of the city and the extension of water mains calls for more aewera In every ward. Be sides there Is the Mud creek sewer to be considered, as well as the building of a sewer from Nineteenth and N streets to the river. By deferring the matter of building a city ball, another lessn for the quartera now occupied by the city will doubtlraa be made. The preaent lease expires In De cember of this year and as no other build ing Is available for the usee of the city tha headquarters of the municipality will doubtleaa remain wliero they are for aom tlmo to come.

Saturday afternoon the lawyers and the real estate men of South Omaha will play a game of base ball at the Vinton street park for the benefit of tha hospital. Very little practice work has been done by either team on account of the weather, but a decidedly Interesting game la looked for ward to, anyway. Tickets for the event are on aaie at maa of the downtown stores, and com mittees composed of membera of the Hos pital association are selling tickets for the event. With good weather a big crowd la expected. While the game will not be particularly scientific, the players :00k for ward to having lots of fun. Both nines will have a bunch of rooters along and those who propose attending the game seem to think It will be one of the moU amusing events of the season. Following this game there Is to be a game between the letter carriers and a team made up of firemen and policemen. Nearly every even ing the carriers mar be seen practicing at Twenty-fifth and I streets, while the polios team practices on the vaotint lot north of fir hall No. 1. The proceeds of this game wi.'l also go to the hospital as sociation. By the playing of a number of gamr-s between amnteurs for the benefit of the hospital, the association expects to teoure enough money to make the first payment en a lot for a permanent hospital build ing. Diverting l.lve Stocta Shipments. Tho high water at Kansas City and the flooding of the stock yards there will cause Increased receipts of live stock at S lutli Omaha. At the stock yards ho:e last uljht It waa reported that Cudahy had sixty cars of cattle on the way from Kanvaa City to this market and heavy shipments will also be received by Swift and Armour today. Packera here say that ahlpmenta of stock dcatlncd for Kansas City will be dlvertej to this point during the floods at the lower river market. The Increase In receipts here will cause the employment of td dltlona'. men at the packing houses, und It is expected that many men will come up from Kansas City to work here until the water recedes. During the floods a year ago St Kansas City several hundred, packing house employes spent several months In South Omaha while the yards and packing houses at Kansas City were ! being placed , In order. Shljrers In tho territory tributary to Kansas City are being notified of the con dition there and the suggestion is made that stock be shipped direct to 8iu;h Omaha until further notice. The packers were not In a position last right to sty Just how many additional men would be nrciVd here, but It la safe to predict that there will be work fur several hundred men. Iloacla Almost Inipasaable. Roada leading into the city from the country are almost llnciassable on account of the heavy rains.

FIFTH WARD REPUBLICANS John Ik Kennedy Addresses a Largely Attended meeting; of the Clnb. "In the republican platform 'there Is no complaint or criticism," aaid John I Kennedy at tha Fifth Ward Republican club meeting laat night. "It Is a platform of( commendation. It apologises for no promises mads and not fulfilled, and prom ises nothing but what the party expects te perform." . "Can any of you tell me what a democrat Is, or what he believes? No man knows. When you speak of a democrat you aak In the name breath, 'What kind of a democrat V What doea the party stand for tonight? We may know tomorrow night atid we will not know until tomorrow night whether it stands for the same thing that It stood for In 1886 or something else. Democrats tonight do not know that their aouls are their own; they do not know what they stand for or what they will stand for tomorrow night. "The distinguished gentleman from Ne braska, W. J. Brysn, received a great ovation at tha hands of tha convention to day, and for what? For being wrong on eveery proposition he has ever advocated, and how do you expect that body of men to Handle the government successfully? "The first thing which marks the un successful business man Is the borrowing of money to float his business a little longer. That waa what Grover Cleveland did when he held the reins of government. "We have pitted against the democratic nominee, whoever he may be, Theodore Rooaavelt. Why la thla man Roosevelt so strong with the people? There are Just as brainy men in the party; that Is not where lies Ms power entirely. One of the elements of strength In Roosevelt Is that the people have perfect confidence In his Integrity. Whst he undertakes to accom plish he accomplishes by direct methods. People also have confidence In his char acter and strength. They know he can stand up and be a man. They also know he haa aggreesivenesa which leada him te do thlnga. In Falrbanka we have a cool, deliberate, wtll balanced atateaman. "The question of the, united support of the party In thla district haa been referred to. I have not an unkind word to say re garding the preaent representative from this district In congress, but we all know no democrat can represent this district and accomplish what he should, because ha la with the minority. Democrata aay they will remedy thla by making congreaa democratic, but that la an Impossible task. I am a candlate for congreaa and if I am elected I will repreaent the entire party In thla district regardless of faction. No man will be abla to control ma, but any man may sdvlae me." Nelson C. Pratt and Senator Charlea L. Saunders delivered brief addressee upon the present political situation, after which the meeting adjourned.
