Mayor Boyd called the meeting to
order and in doing so said :
Yesterday Dr. Miller told . mo that
Gen. llollman , of Dakota county , was
in the city nnd suggested that n meet
ing bo held at the board of trade
rooms. It was announced that the
mooting was to consider the building
of a now railroad northwest. This
was not the intention , but it can
bo considered in thought advisable
It is the desire of the people of north
ern Nebraska to have biminoss rela
tions with tlio merchants of Omaha.
Many hero present are acquainted
with Dr. Hayden. Ho has often
called my attention to the wonderful
richness of northwestern Nebraska
and in hin works ho cnlln it thn gar
den of the state. Until the past few
months wo have been practically shut
out from D.ikntu county and all that
county north of the Oiunhn reserva
tion. Wo now have trains running
regularly and it is the duty of the
merchants and business of Omaha to
strive for this trade The people are
anxiotm to do business with us nnd
the county is rich in catilo and hoys
mid all tho1 products of the soilVo
want to buy from them everything
hey want to sell nnd want to sell them
vorything they want to buy. They
ro of our atato nnd they want to
uild up the trade and commerce of
ohmska nnd not that of Jo\yn. They
iivu been , 'dependant upon
iioux City Uhd they boliovc
dvnntngo bus boon taken of their
ecesBitics. They want to deal with
H. If.tlio railroads will do what is
ight Omaha can have a largo share of
inir trader. Railroads , like individ-
ials , work for their own interest. If
hey favor onu place in preference to
nether it is because it ia for thu best
itcrcst of thu itind to do HO. I be-
eve the gentlemen who nmimyo the
I. , St. P. , M. it Omaha railroad in
Nebraska are inclined to do that
hich js fair and enable us to do busi
est ) with these people. It will ba to
Iteir own interest Thu peo-
lo of Douglas county dotiat-
1 8200,000 towards the building
I this road , and while the benefit has
, ot been all that was anticipated it
as yet been a paying investment.
Imaha lias paid liberally for almost
very railrund that has been built to
or door and to some that never
lached hero ; $40,000 to the Chicago
Northwestern , § 250,000 to thu U.
. . railway , § 200,000 to the Omaha it
SorthwcHtorn , $11)0,000 to thoOmafia
k Southwestern ( the present B. &M ) ,
) no road was obtained without pay-
ng , the Omaha it Republican Valley ,
nd that 4/md / has done more for us
ban any other except the
U. 1 * . railway. Wo are now
bout to get _ another road with-
mt paying for it , thoMissouaiFacilic ,
nnd I predict that when that road is
completed it will change the whole
railroad system in this vicinity. All
wo want is a fair Hold and no favors.
Omaha is so situated ns to cammund
he trade of Nebraska and the tern
lories \\rat- , ( Aid in 'time have her
slnire of it. This city is destined to
'no the city and the great distributing
' loint of the upper MUsouri valley ,
, Gen. HalWuH , ofDj&bU City , Bald
ip , would muufiryn' Jmt'tho , p'coplo'jn
tin section expected. Ho was called
onu of tlio rod ploacera of Uho state ,
having lived hero over a quarter of a
century. The people in Omaha wore

: ho Oiunhn people Voiild only stretch
out their hands to assist them. They
hud six or seven counties , the trudu
of which could bo soqurod hero if mi
eil'ort wore made. TJio county in
which ho lived was pretty well popu-
luted with rich farms. They raised
in Wayne , Dixon , Cedar , , Knox and
Holt lanu ( p antities of hogs and cat *
tie and hero was the proper place for
them to come to trade. Why should
they bo compelled to go to Sioux
City } If the proper effort were mode
to help them build a trade on this
bide of the river these cattle and hogs
could bo brought here. It could bo
BOCU at oncu why they wanted to
( radu at Omaha. His people wore
were compelled to pay freight in
crossing tno bridge at Sioux City.
The towns there did not pros per.
Why7 They wore in no condition to
dhipfiom thiseido of the river and
were compelled to send to the other ,
and there the money 'vent , The
county of Wayne was a county of ns
much possibilities as any hi the state.
His own county , Dixon ,
wax nn excellent ono. IU
county' town had a population of
between 000 and 1,000. The same
could bo tfuid of Jackson , with its 500
or COO population. The St. Paul
: > -ul expected to extend their
irough Ccdur nnd probably Holt ,
ravclcrs from Iowa cities were al-
eady on the alert. Why weren't the
hnaha men ? If these counties were
roporly populated nnd a trade con-
cction established with Omaha , the
usincss would almost support this
ily. His people wanted compolilipn.
'hoy were sick and tired of throwing
nonoy into Iowa. Fanners frequently
aulcd their'hogs forty and fitly
miles to Sioux City. Ho hoped the
'riondfi of thin city would consider
how mailers and not lot them go by
ho board. Their Irado belonged
j .Omaha , not Iowa. When
to line which is now
hiding between Emerson nnd
Norfolk was completed ns it would bo
his fall they could draw the trade to
Jmaha from these counties if they
ishcd. It wan the interest of this
icoplo to trade hero , As far back ns
805 il was estimated lhat the wheat
rep of Dixon would bo betwoenOOO ,
100 and 700,000 bushels. Still the
ounty is not half populated , They
an't build up because the wealth
; oes out of the stale. When ho wont
bmo lie would loll hi people that
) maha citizens would hereafter lake
it interest in their welfare.
Dr. Miller said ho thoroughly ap *
irovcd of every word said by Gen.
tollman. Ho knew that things would
uan out well with the inhabitants of
10 finest city of i tango in tlio conn-
ry. They talked about terminus and
11 that sort ot thing , but things gen-
rally terminated hero. Ho had paid
> visit to the Logan valley and was
atisficd that few people could com-
rchond what resources wdre within
icir grasp. Fanners in DixOn' ' were
w rich ns might be. _ Some of these
' e had seen digging ditches
Omaha for sovonty-livo cents
day and now they could
raw their checks for hundreds of
ollars. Ho wondered whether the
ioux City railroad people had any iu-
erost in allowing hogs to bo shipped
i few miles instead of 125 miles to
Omaha. The country was to bo
densely populated. If there was a
railroad in conflict with their interest
t must bo pushed aside. They want
Omaha people to take hold of them
lercly in a business sense. Ho know
'iat ' Omaha wanted another railroad
> round it out so that Omaha
lould have her own. Ho meant
iat when railroads wore shooting out
o thu northern part of the state tak-
ug away the trade that it lays in thu
wwer of Mr. Kountzo to say whether
, road should bo built up that way
nd thus keep for Omaha what was by
; ght hcra. Ho know very well
ittioUt saying why , because ho was
catriclcd in his utterances that now
ns the proper time to begin. Omaha
ud been cut oil' from the south and
orth , and only for the great central
rtory they wouldn't have travel
nough to have compassion for any-
lody. Ho nskwl that Messrs. Boyd ,
Countzo , Murphy and Croighton got
ogdthcr and the road would be built.
Aluyor Boyd requested Gen. Holl-
nan to inform the people of Sioux
'ity that ho would give within forty
juts of Chicago prices for hogs do-
vpredjiin | in Omaha. He also g.ivo
omo 'Interesting figures about the
lucking business. There are about
(2,000,000 ( hogs raised yearly in this
ountry and ono out of every four is
aughtcrcd. Nebraska raises about
00,000. Last year ho slaughtered
1J,000 ! hogs or. about ono out of
very six raised in this state. Mr.
oyd further stated that Mr. Boggs ,
f Sioux City , representing § 4,000-
00 of capital , had proposed fo him
liat they draw the line at tlio rcser-
ntio.i , if Uoyd would not buy north
if that line ho would not interfere
ith hi * trade south of it.
Gen. llollman sold the great point
as to get such rates over thu road ns
ould pay the people to ship hero.
Mr. KounUe doubted his ability teD
D as much as was claimed ho could.
lonoy wat the only thing to build a
nilroad with. He was willing to
nbscribo , but would not undertake
Eio work alone. The other rich men
11 the room should also subscribe.
"I will give do'ublo as much in pro-
> ortion to my means as you give , "
uterjected Mayor Boyd.
"I take that up , " replied Mr.
unmt/.o.
' How will it bo decided as to what
ach is worth ? " asked somebody.
"Look in the commercial report"
ug ested another.
"But I am not represented , " said
Mr. Kountzo.
"I'll decide it , " said the mayor.
"Oh , no you won't , " uaulMr. .
itountzo , and so the question of rela-
ivo'wcallh wns allowed to drop.
Mr. Kount.o went on to say that
10 would join with others in uuy
movement of thu kind.
Mr. Hopowell , of Ti-kumah , was
callqd and said a few wunU about his
county and the feeling there in favor
of Omaha.
The meeting wus then declared ml-

j Aiijuceidont of somewhat serious
ihluro occurred on Douglass street
yosferdayjnorninpnboutlmlf past 10
/clock. It'appears that while Sox-
auer'a grocery wagon was delivering
some lime at a house on Douglas
street , between Eighth nnd Ninth
streets , the horses became frightened.
There was a man and a boy in the
wagon. Tlio man jumped out , but the
boy hold on to the reins. The horses
became frantic and ended by precipi
tating the boy from ( ho wagon , and
ho became entailed in the harness
and was badly kicked by the horses.
Mra. Finnoy mid Mrs. Buttorfiold who
happened to bo present at the time
succeeded in extricating the lad , who
was very seriously damaged , Mrs ,
Finnoy had him convoyed to her
house where the doctors dressed his
wounds , His head is very dangerously -

SEWER SYSTEM ,
How An Excellent One Can
Bo Secured for Omaha.
ity Engineer Rosewater Tells
All About It.
Disposing of Surface Drainage
nnd Sewer Gas.
110 Bond * Voted Snfllolent to Cai * y
Through the Work-
Oity Engineer Andrew Ilosowalcr
cturned homo last night from a visit
o Newport , where ho went to have a
onfercnco with Geo. E. s\Varing on
10 subject of Omaha sewerage.
Generally speaking Mr. Waring'a
, 'stem of sowcr.tgo is to separate
itchcn slops and like matter and run
icin into drains , independent of the
rains for rain -water. The system
onsisln'of placing a tank at the sum-
lit of each lateral sower. About
lirty tanks , each of a capacity of 112
allonn , will bo placed in various parts
f the cily. These lanks are aulo-
mtic in their action , and by flush-
them with water from the water
orks they will discharge every twelve
ours. This system of frequent cleans-
111 prevbnts decomposition , which
anally requires about thrco days. To
bviato any possibility of ill-olTect
rom the sewer through defects in
onstmclion , the sewers are provided
ilh n syslom of ventilation. At the
oot of each lateral , before it dis-
liargcs into the main sewer
lore is placed a , ventilating
ipo which connects with the sewer
nd extends slightly above the surface
f the ground. These ventilators arc
o connected as to admit nothing but
'How ' 'docs the discharge take
lace ? ' was asked Mr. Rocowatcr.
"Tho capacity of the sewer will bo
uch that at its greatest ( low it will
nly bo one-third full. The pipes
I bo of sufficient size t < 5
dmil a house connection every fifty
oct , yet being only one-third full ,
wo thirds of the space is allowed
or the free passage of air , which is
ell known to bo the best disiufect-
nt. Under the old system it was
ecesaary to carry away all the Hood
ator. This is frequently an import-
nt matter here. For instance , two
lonths ago , wo had a rainfall of one
nd a half inches in twenty
linutcs. No city has a sewer so largo
s to nt once discharge 10 heavy a
ood. Wo will allow this water to How
thcjgutters , "
In considering the sewerage from a
initary standpoint the two creeks of
10 city wore found to bo rather awk-
nrd stumbling blocks. The ultimate
esign.is to change them inlo conduits
or carrying oil' surface drainage ,
this way traps and
ateli basins both expensive will be
voided.
'What is.the intention in regard to
"forth " Omaha creek ? " was asked.
'It is designed , " said Mr. Ro&owa-
er , "to follow the Phillips' plan with
possible modification in the size ,
'his conduit , instead of being carried
0 Jones street , will be run from Chi-
ago street to the rivor. The sewer will
> o seven or eight feet at thu outfall
nto the riverj instead of 12i , ns was
riginally designed. "
"How about South Omaha creek ? '
"It will bo recommended that the
gaps west -to cost on Ninth to Thir
oonth bo tilled up , thus doing away
vith the bridges , but allowing an
pen channel otherwise for the pres-
int. "
"What will bo done in the matter
if surface drainage ? "
"Thero is the greatest need for sur
acu drainage on account of the heavy
lows from the hills which do mpro or
ess damage. It has been designed ,
uid thu work may be dona next year ,
to take Dodge street as a dividing line ,
and > extend from that street west
dongthobasoof the hills down to South
) mana creek and up to North Omaha
v line of grated openings to receive the
low of water and discharge it into
hese creeks and thus free the busi-
less part of the city from a great nui
sance. In the mattei of the bottoms,1'
continued the city engineer , "an excavation
vation will probably have to bo made
: o receive tno sewerage drainintjs. I
will bo dug deep so that it may flow
into tlio river during its low
slaves , and bo pumped there during
the high water. Vo will constructan
earthen embankment from the quar
ries below Boyd's packing h6uso to
the sulphur springs , over which wo
will plant willows , This will cos
about 930,000. In house draining
the Bowngo pipes will bo run under
the building and connect with the
Hues , so as to provide thorough venti
lation for sewer gas. "
, It will be remembered that $100
000 has been voted for sewerage pur
poses. The total expense of the
main line of sewers , including ongin
coring and royalty will bo botwooi
$35,000 and 340,000. The balance ,
$00,000 , will bo applied to the North
and South Omaha creek conduits.
South Omaha creek- can bo placed in
condition for $30,000 , leaving the
balance for work on the North Oma
ha creek.
Mayor Boyd will call a special
meeting of council to consider the
matter , when ho will make such rec
ommendations as he may consider ad
visable. _
A Booming Business.
An important industry in Omaha
at present is the manufacture of gal
vanized iron corwco for business build
ings and dwelling. One of these
factories employs thirty-five men at
prceonl , mid UHOS two houses for the
manufacture of the goods , and many
more for tlio storage of the same , and
is still crowded for room. The re

THE CHANGED PLAN.
How the Cost of the Court
House Can Be Lessened.
Ysslerday County Clerk Man
Chester received the original and mod-
fied plans for the now court house
'rom the architect in Detroit. A very
jcautiful perspective view of the orig
inal design for the edifice accom
panicd the plan. It is handsomely
olorod and will be placed upon exhi
bition. The modified plan will in-
iludo the same perspective as the
original , the principal changes being
from stone to brick in two fronts. The
changes suggested by the archi
tect to reduce the cost o !
the original plan is as follows
The Harnoy and. .ifJtU. atreot fronts
will bo madp of brick with s ono trim
mines instead of stone as originally
intended. All iron beams and brick
ar'ches will bo omitted and wood joists
will bo used in their place for all floors
above first lloor including roof. White
pine , grained and shaded to ropreson
walnut , will bo used in place
of hard wood , The iron stairs
will bo replaced by black walnut ones
the basement to bo unfinished. In
stead of using plate-glass in the windows
dews , they will bo tilled with Englisl
crystal sheet throughout. Galvanizoc
iron will bo used for the tops of the
chimneys and ventilation shafts it
place of stone. The corridor of the
first floor will bo tiled and the others
made f wood.
Pretty Good.

That is NowHrvnginp in Judge
Beneko's Court.
In. Judge Boncko's court room theie
hang * a photograph attached to which
is a letter from N. J. Kennedy , the
l7utccnlh street merchant. The pic
ture is n work cf art and represents
Mr. Kennedy an being clothed in
rough garments and npparenlly ready
for almost any emergency. A largo
fire axe is grasped in his hands to
show that ho ia willing to go on ( ho
war-path if necessary.
Mr. . Kennedy's grievance is that
being a mombcrof tlio fire department ,
ho was not allowed to take active part
in the fire of the Western Newspaper
Union on Thirteenth street. A mem
ber of the police force handled him
pretty roughly and would not allow
him to act in his capacity of fireman ,
Mr. Kennedy is an old and respected
citizen nnd has always taken great ill-
lercat in the fire department , hence
his notice to the different city officials ,
which reads as follows :
O.MAHA , August 19 , ,1881. ,
To tlis City Marshal , fire Department n < l Police
1'orcotn General :
GENTLEMEN : , The enclosed photo-
raph is the individual whose name
.etuis this an.il signs his name to the
ail end , that you all may know him
vherovcr you inay see him. As a
aw-abiding citizen , I claim and do-
nand an untramulcd right while in
ho performance of my duty towards
ny fellow men ; at all times and under
all circumstances not to bo interfered
vith by over-zealous servants of the
icaco while performing my labor
as a fireman and during the existence
of fires. On the night of August 17 ,
.881 , the uncalled for and extremely
roughj unpcntlemanly interference
and hindrance that I received by ono
of the force , whoso name is known to
me. has called forth this open letter
and photograph , as a warning to the
iresent force and your auccesaors in
ho future , that 1 am liable and ready
on occasions of great danger from
ires to assist our chief nnd his
> rave boya in subduing the demon.
' . am liable to appear not always in
iroadcloth or with kid gloves or
nbunted with badges , for they are not
it all times indicative of what a man
or that ho is a member of the de
partment.
With much respect , I am. truly
'ours , N. J. KKXNEDV.
