ISSUE OF BONDS

Welfare Ordinance A Rain Delayed
Contract for Two Sewer Dis

t .
' A $10,000 bond issue, for the pur
pose of extending the municipal water
system to various portions of the
northeastern part of the city, will.be
submitted to the voters of the city at
the regular election to be held in
April, according to a decision of the
city council at their February meeting,
held at the city hall Tuesday evening.
A petition, signed by a large num
ber of representative citizens, calling
for a special election to vote upon
the question was presented and read.
The council voted unanimously in fa
vor of the submission, adopting Mayor
Rodgers' suggestion that the vote be
taken at the same time as the regular
city election, in order to cut down
the expense.
The city's engineer, William Grant
of Lincoln, was present, and after a
conference with him the council de
cided to extend .the Tenth street main
to Fourth street, Duncan's addition;
the Yellowstone and Missouri avenue
mains from Eighth to Ninth street.

the voters.
Sewer Contract Let
It was the night for public improve
ments. Bids were opened for sani
tary sewer districts Nor. 11 and 12,
of which there were but two. The en
gineer's estimate of cost placed the
construction in district No. 11 at $2,
938, and in district No. 12 at $1,980.
Both of the bidders shaved the esti
mate somewhat in their bids. E. C. '
Young of Alliance submitted figures
of $2,905 for district No. 11 and $lr I
900 for No. 12. The other bid was I
" from-ArtmirM.-Dobson & Cor-of-Lln-
coin, $2,930 for district Nfl,.U and
f 1,925 for No. 12. Mr. Young prom- J
10 f?,n,piteh? WOrk by July h
1921, while the Dobson company set
Xfnv 1 94 tin. date whn thev would i
have the sewers ready for use. After
some discussion the contract was ,
awarded to the Alliance man. '
The meeting was a trine late in get-
ting started, due to the fact that a
number of supporters of the proposed
welfare ordinance were present, rather
expecting that some action would be
taken upon the measure. For two or
three months this ordinance has been
hanging fire, the council being appar
ently of the opinion that, as drawn,
it was a trifle too complete and that
some of its provisions were not par
ticularly applicable to Alliance.
More Revamping Needed
The council at its January meeting
appointed City Attorney Metz and
Councilman Johnson as a committee !
to meet with the backers of the ordi
nance and go over it, eliminating some
of the provisions and in general mak
ing it fit conditions here. This com
mittee apparently met during the
month, and a number of changes were
agreed to. Some of the supporters
of the ordinance thought that every
thing was settled, but they were
doomed to disappointment.
Mayor Rodgers, before the meetinig
opened, handed about an opinion from
City Attorney Metz, to the effect that
some of the provisions not eliminated
from the ordinance were, in his opin
ion, illegal. Mr. Metz was not pres
ent at the meeting, being out of the
city, and the council informally de
cided to await his return before tak
ing any further action.
A large number of supporters of
the measure were present, and before
the meeting etarted, Mayor Rodgers
took up the matter with them. They
were apparently agreeable to the
further delay, but other advocates of
the ordinance showed up later, who
were apparently a trifle vexed be
cause nothing had been done about it.
It will probably be gone over again,
and some more of its provisions
either eliminated or amended. Some
supporters of the ordinance expressed
the fear that all the "kick" would be
taken out of it, but most of them were
ready to withhold their judgment un
til the revamped document is ready
to be considered .
Three Ordinances Introduced
For some unaccountable reason,
the council failed to follow the usual
procedure in the case of three ordi
nances which were introduced during
the evening. The usual way has been
to rush the ordinances through, paus
ing only for the clerk to call the roll
the required three times. The coun
cil was extremely cautious Tuesday
evening, and didn't suspend a single
rule.
One of the ordinances concerned a
chance in the ordinance licensing
electricians. A few short months ago,
ma of the men engaged in that bu&i
Bess appeared before the council and
asked the passage or an ordinance a
tensing electricians, prescribing a fee

G. N. HOAG DROPS DEAD
AT HALSEY WEDNESDAY
G. N. Hoag, freight service in
spector for the Burlington, working
out of the general superintendent's
office, died of heart failure Wednes
day evening about 6 o'clock. He had
just hoarded a light engine which was
standing on the track at Halsey and
fell backwards out of it, striking his
head on a rail. A gash was cut in his
head, but the fact that this did not
bleed is proof that death occurred be
fore he fell. Mr. Hoag had been hav
ing some trouble with his heart dur
ing -the past He had been on a
freight train all day, and thought to
save time by riding the engine down
to Seneca, instead of waiting for the
Eassenger train. He had been feeling
adly, and expected to go to bed cn
arrival at Seneca.
The deceased leaves one son, R. C.
Hoag of this city, and four daughters,
Mrs. Nellie Wilson, Mrs. Domhy
Hershman and Mrs. J. H. Mann of
Alliance, and Mrs. Leo Daniel of
Bayard; also a brother, John Hoag,
of Batavia, HI.; a sister, Mrs. Bell
Stickle, of San Bernardino, Cal.; and
a brother, Louis Hoag of Shickley,
Neb., who arrived this morning.
Funeral services were held at the
Masonic temple at 2 p. m., conducted
by Rev. S. J. Epler. Interment was
made in Greenwood cemetery.

EX-SERVICE MEN
ARE SPONSORING
TWO CANDIDATES
-
MEN SELECTED ARE NOT A PART
OF ANY SLATE
-l V -- r- "-- ----. -
Service Men Have No Axe to Grind,
But Feel Voters Should Have
Opportunity to Choose
- "
The ex-service men of Alliance, vo
e uuinuer oi over sixty, heiu an in
iofmai meeting i buisuay evening and
tu8u " ome discussion oi
CltV
pontics. The concensus oi omnion was
mat tne adoption ot the city manager
pian ottered a big opportunity to Alli
ance to achieve home notable reioniis
and institute some eihciency in city
government. It was pointed out that
to date only a short time before the
close of the period for filing nomina
tions, very few good men had agreed
to make the race-for councilman, and
prospects were that the voters would
be faced with the proposition of choos
ing between two or three slates.
The ex-service men decided it was
up to them, as men who were inter
ested enough in good government to
fight for it, to offer the voters of the
city a candidate or two who had ah.
solutely no strings attached to them.
Thereupon two of the men present
were uraiteu lor candidates, and peti
tions were circulated immediately. D.
C. Bradbury and Will L. O'Keefe were
the men upon whom the honor was
thrust. Ihey protested to some con
siderable extent, but finally agreed to
permit their chapeaux to be tossed into
the ring.
The meeting was wholly informal,
and there was no thought of nominat
ing and electing these men simply be
cause they were cx-soldiers. The
thought was expressed several times
that the men who were chiefly re
sponsible for getting the city to adopt
the city manager plan, who had
worked for it and urged that among
the chief advantages would be the fact
that men who would ordinarily refuse
to become candidates for the council,
would have no scruples under the new
system, had abandoned their own pet
infant on the doorstep. Many of the
men who have been urged to become
candidates, while strong for the city
manager plan, have refused to allow
their names to be used. As a result
some of the men who are talked of as
candidate are largely members of the
old guard, or men with friends to re
ward and enemies to punish.
ihe men who were responsible for
forcing Bradbury and O'Keefe into the
race have no axe to grind. There is
nothing the ex-soldiers want that the
council can give them. The whole idea
is to give the voters ample opportunity
to choose candidates whom they be
lieve are competent and sincere in
their desire to serve the people of the
city.
The two men selected have not been
active in city politics but aside from
this they have good judgment, ample
experience and will if elected make
good, conscientious officials. Both of
them are clean, honest, straightfor
ward and have sufficient pep to make
them desirable candidates.

OPPOSE BILLS
AIMED AT STATE
HIGHWAY SYSTEM
STRONG RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED
BY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Endorses Department of Public Works
Want Auto License Money
to Remain in County
The directors of the Alliance cham
ber of commerce, at their last meet
ing Wednesday evening, passed resolu
tions condemning two bills now up for
kection in the legislature. One of these
seeks to abolish the department, and
the other would combine it with an
other department, The resolutions are
strong in their praise for State En
gineer George E. Johnson.
Ihe chamber of commerce puts it
self on record as being opposed to
changes in the manner of disbursing
the money received from auto licenses,
but does favor retaining these funds
in the county where collected. Copies
of the resolution have been sent to
Senator Good and Representative Gris-
wold.
The resolutions follow:
"Whereas, Bills have been intro
duced in the present legislature inimi
cal to our state highway system and
the department of public" works such
as seeking the abolition of the depart
ment in its entirety and another un
dertaking to cripple its efficiency by
combining with other departments,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the chamber of
commerce of Alliance wishes to go on
record as being unalterably opposed to
any change whatever in the adminis
tration of the department of public
works; that we are in thorough accord
with the plan of state and federal
roads; that we' believe that the rtate
should hot forfeit the experience of the
present secretary of public works, Geo.
E. Johnson, who has been largely re
sponsible for the great plan of state
highways now laid out, and has a per
sonal pride in carrying to completion
the present approved system with a
few slight changes or additions;

COUNCIL GOES ON RECORD
AGAINSTPR0P0SEO LAW
The Alliance city council, at it
meeting Tuesday evening, by a unani
mous vote went on record against the
proposea iaw wnicn would place all
public utilities under the Jurisdiction
of the state railway commission. In
compliance with the request of the
Lincoln city council, which submitted
a sample of the sort of a resolution
that was desired, the council adoptee,
the following:
"Be It Resolved by the city counci
of the city of Alliance, Neb., that w
ire opposed to any legislation havinj
for its purpose the extension of th
jurisdiction of the state railway com
nission over any public utilities othe
iian common carriers, whether sue
itilities be publicly owned or private
wned, and that we favor the leavin

CANDIDATES TO
FILE PETITIONS
NOW OR NEVER
EXPECT LAST MINUTE RUSH TO
GET UNDER THE WIRE
Indications Are That Voters Will Have
Wide Range of Choice To
morrow the Last Day
The last minute rush of candidates
for the city council has not commenced,
nlthough it Is expected at any minute.
Tomorrow is the last day that filings
will be accepted by the city clerk, but
at noon today there were but three
petitions on file, and two of them were
made this morning. George W. Nation
was the first man to plank down his
petition and kick in with the $10 filing
fee, and the two other filings were
D. C. Bradbury and W. L. O'Keefe. A
petition for George E. Davis was filed
early in the afternoon.
However, if petitions are filed for
every man whose name has been men
tioned, the primary ballot will be at
least two feet long. There have been
more rumors in connection with this
primary than there used to be in the
days after the armistice, when every
other man. had some inside dope on
how soon the army was going home.
Dozens of men have been suggested,
and some people have gone so far as to
circulate petitions in their behalf, only
to have the prospective candidate set
his foot down and insist that his name
be withdrawn. Originally, the idea
was to pet together a list of men of
extraordinary ability, who had made
startling" successes in managing their
own affairs, hut somehow or other, a
number of these men-weren't attracted
by the thought of serving on the coun
cil that will appoint the new city
manager,
Plenty of Candidates in Sight.
However, there will undoubtedly be
plenty of candidates, and a number of
hem will be just the type of men that
are needed to make the new system
success. Some of the men prob
ably will be drawn into the race, as is
usual, in the hope of "getting some
thing" that they want, but there will
be a sufficient number so that the
vtirwiU have aa opportunity -to ex
press a choice.
The air Is full or names, and a
cautious newspaper doesn't dare to at
tempt to give a reliable list of them.
'est some or the candidates be omitted
and others inserted who will refuse to
accept the honor even if someone pays
the filing fee for them.
Citv Clerk Kennedy has prepared
some twenty-five blank petitions all of
which have been taken out by inter
ested parties. One of these petitions,
unaccompanied by the tiling lee, now
reposes in her desn jn tne city nan.
l'he hooe is that the prospective candi
date, wlio has steadfastly refused to
al ow his name to go on tne primary
oallot, will relent before Saturday eve
ning.
Women in the Race.
The rumor is going the rounds that
one or two women candidates will file
before the time limit expires. Several
names have been suggested, among
them Mrs. Nellie Wilson, Mrs. J. J.
Vance and Mrs. Dorothy Hershman.
It is known that petitions have been
circulated for at least one of these.
George Davis, Monty Margraves, R.
M. Hampton, C. A. Newberry, F. W.
Harris, Fred Hayes, Harry Coursey
and two or three others are said by
those who claim to be "in the know" to
be among those for whom petitions
will be filed. There will be one or two
railroaders on the ticket, J. B. Irwin
being one of those who is mentioned.
In the Tuesday issue of The Herald
it will lie possible to give the com
plete lineup of candidates, together
with some information about each of
them. The Herald is interested only
in securing for Alliance the very best
council that can be had, and when the
names are all in will do its best to see
that the voters have complete informa
tion. MURDERED MAN'S BROTHER

gobs and ex-devil dogs, with a few
gold braiders and one or two-stripes
turned out, and for two hours and a
half sang army songs at the top of
their lusty lungs, between bites of a
dinner that reminded them strangely
of their service days it was so dif
ferent Following the feed, the ex-service
men held a short business session, at
which Dr. H. A. Copsey was elected

SIXTY WOMEN
TURN OUT FOR A
NOON LUNCHEON
BUT THE GIRLS FAIL TO PEE
FECT AN ORGANIZATION
Some Doubt As to What It Was AO
About Another Trial to Be
Made Next Week
Mischievous Fate, standing silently
in the wings, pulled the wrong stringa
at the women's luncheon at the Cham
ber of Commerce rooms Thursday aft
ernoon and as a result things were
trifle confused. Sixty-odd women, full .
of enthusiasm and ready for almost
anything, turned out and the stag
was all set for the performance. Non
of the actors had rehearsed their parts
and the stange manager, Secretary
George M. Carey, wasn't at hand t
prompt them. It was a most pleasaat
occasion, but it didnt run according ta
schedule.
Mere men weren't supposed to afe
tend the affair, and a warning waa
issued at the Monday men's luncheoa
for them to keep away. Secretary
Carey, who had intimated that h
would be present to explain his plaa,
at the last moment suffered an ate
tack of cold feet, and in a few hur
ried sentences explained what was eu
his mind to Mrs. S. W. Thompson,
who was asked to preside. But Mr
Carey failed to figure on the natural
tendency of women to procrastinate,
and thereby hangs the tale.
Originally. Mr. Carey planned to
organize a business woman's club,
which should hold a weekly luncheon
at the club rooms. It had been la
tended to limit the membership tow-omen
who were employed in various
capacities. Later someone suggested
the idea that it would be a nice thine
to invite any woman in the city, who
happened to be down-town shopping
at the noon hour, to participate. So
the word was sent along to members
of the Woman's club, who took hold
of the proposition with their usual
vigor.
Still later, the thought was ex
pressed that Rince any woman might
be interested in the luncheon, a
woman's auxiliary to the chamber of
commerce might be orgunized, and
the membership bars discarded. This
was the final pian - that the powers

Woman's club and 'pLlm houwi'
As a result, most of those present
were a tri lie at Ma as to t! e exact
nature of the gathering. Some ot
them thought it was a strictly busi
ness woman's club; others thought the
whole thing was sponsored by the
Woman's club. And there were others
who believed it was a combination of
the two. The latter conjecture was
the more nearly correct, as was
brought out in the intorma! discus
sion that followed the luncheon.
Several wera asked to give their

were in;eie. ed in civic welfare,
which would hold luncheons ut rtutea

eral public interest. The dues were
set ai a eai, which cau ed some
of the iadles to gasp a trifle.
Then the discuss tn started in ear

the e: .1 of which it was needed to
delay acuon to give t.me tor a more
complete discussion, owing to the fact
that so far as the majority of those
present were concerned, it -was the
first time they had understood the
proposition. Among those called upon
ior their opinions were Mrs. A. J. Cole,
Mrs. Dole, Miss Jo-ephine Ganson,
Miss McVicker, Mrs. J. A. Mallery.
