llio Matter.
Superintendent Nichols , of the Union
'ncillc , wns over yesterday to BCO Mayor
fauglmn in regard to the resolution
lasscd at the last council meeting rcquir-
ng the Union Pacific Railroad company
o comply with their contract as to Union
avonuo.
Mr. Nicholas informed the mayor that
t would bo Impossible , wilh the weather
artd roads in such condition , to moot the
demands of the resolution , and that it
was the dcairo of his company to comply
: ully with their part of the contract.
The mayor requested him to submit a
written statement as to when they would
comply fully with their part of the conTact -
Tact as to this valuable avcnuo , telling
lim that the people of this city feel that
they had given his company a very valu
blo piooo of property , nnd that so for it
iad boon of little benefit to the citizens
of Council Blulls.
Ho also informed him that the people
lore would not demand anything un-
rcasonablo , and if any assurance could bo
; ivon that the covenants and agreements
) otwcon the city and the Union Pacific
railroad company would bo fully com
plied with , that ho would rocommcnt
the council to withdraw the resolution
'or thirty or sixty days. Ho also in
formed the superintendent that the citi
zens felt that the company was discrimi
nating against Council Blufls and in
iavor of Omaha , by starting an early
trajnifrom Omalm , that laboring men can
reside in Omaha and reach this side in
; imo for a full day's work , while if any
of our citizen's desire to do business in
Dmaha and live on this side , several
loun of the day would elapse before
, hey would roach their place of work.
Che mayor requested the superintendent
o remedy tnis discrimination by starting
a train < from each side at the same hour.
Ho also informed him that it was a
; roat inconvenience for the -street cars
tow owned by the Union Pacific railroad
company to cease running so early at
night , as it was almost a nightly occur-
once for the police to assist women and
children with baggage to roach a hotel
after the arrival of his 10 or 11 o'clock
light dummy , as no street car awaited
ts arrival. The mayor assured Suporin-
; ondont Nicholas that the citizens hero
were desirous that a good /feeling might
exist between their company and them-
elves , but that they did fool that they
voro not being treated fairly.
Alderman McMahon and Alderman
ihugart , Judge E. K. Ayles worth and
Auditor Bjrkoworo also present and took
> art in the above conversation.
Under the ordinance granting Union
.vonuo . to the Union Pacific , thocompany
igrccd to run dummy trains every hall
lour , nnd also to run "Sorry" cars to one
rom Broadway , so that teams could bo
carried backward andiforward. The com-
lany had nil the eummor and fall months
ip to January 1st last to comply with
hose agreements , and by the ordinance
hey -were to have nil their improvements
lade by that tinio. and a failure of thirty
ays to comply with these conditions
would 'forfeit all their rights , and the city
ould order it to take up its tracks , and
f it failed to do so coula toke them up
> t the company's ' expense.
The company-claims that it cannot run
lalf-hour trains without a double track ,
nd yet they have made no attempt to
ay another track.
The work of filling street * has gone on
lore nearly all winter , but still the
Jnion Pacific says it could not do any
grading. Now that the council proposes
o take some legal action to protect the
ntorests of the people , the company
wants to quiet them with promises again. "
ts promises ought not to pass at par in
now of the way it has kept its previous
> romisc8 to this city.
The resolution ought to stand and
tction commenced under it , for with
lie usual delays of the law there
rill bo plenty of time for the
Juion Pacific to show whether it has any
ntention of keeping its promises , and
ho action pending may help its memory
This plan of getting resolutions
impended or rescinded by promises of
doing something has been followed with
HUCCOBS by the Union Pacific , and by
other companies , and it is nbout tiinn
ho council discovered this. If the action
; ocs on and the company complies
t can then bo dismissed , and more safely
o than now.
The snmo dodge has been worked by
aihvays on being notified that they must
irovido waterways at the intersection of
troots and alloys us pro
dded by law. Every your the
council 1ms a oudden spurt , liHtons to the
ppoals of the ivrnera of overflowed lots ,
.nd servos noticed to the offending roads.
Clio ollleials otuvu thorn off with promt-
oa , mid the same rests until another year
> rnga ! another spurt.
It is to bo hoped that the council will
teen a firm grift , and compel the Union
Pacific to keep its pledges. The prow-
scs were but a slight return for the gift'
of a 840,000 avenue , and the least that
inn bo done is for the company to keep
.hem.
.T. J , Auworda it Co , , of Chicago , are

PREPARING FOR POWER ,
01
1'roNjieels For un Inoiilmtur of Man-
utncturcH.
Thn oleotrio light company has boon
greatly perplexed to got enough power to
run the dynamos , and have boon plan ,
ning various waya. It was planned re
cently to run the wires to the water
works and got power there , but on figur.
ng over , the matter it was found that it
would cost nearly 92,000 for extra wires
[ n view of this ifc Boomed more practical
a buy a lar o engine and locale it nearer
: ho centre of the city. In getting such
power it is deemed advisable
to got a Btifllciont amount not
onlyj to run the lights at night butte
to be utilized in the daytime. This has
given rise to another scheme , to wit ; to
put up a largo building and rent out
power , wilh room to these who doalro to
begin manufacturing in a small way.
The titu chosen is near the Northwestern
depot , end is about 123 feet square , 6
Some of the best rr.iinf < icturing cities in
o land have built up their factories in
this way. A man with limited capital
lenses room and power and demonstrates
that ho 1ms nlnll , and thnt the article is
. . worthy ono , and in demand , and it
does nottakolong to interest capital , and a
Inrgerfactorysoon growsoutof it. Kacinr ,
Wis. , furnishes a striking insUnco of the
reatilts of the establishment of a power
building. If the citizens take hold of
such a scheme here and manngo it wisely ,
it would result in greatly helping in the
building up of manufacturing interests
horo.
The announcement of the grand millin
ery opening of the Blufls will shortly bo
made by .1. J. Auworda & Co. , who have
fomo from Chicago to open a store at 317
Broadway.
