SOUTH OMAHA N13XVS.
Improvements Tor South Omrtlin.
There have been few , if any , more lm-
Kirtant meetings held In SoulliOmnba than
ho ono that met in the Exchange hotel par-
ors Tuesday afternoon. Those present
wcro few In number , but they represented
all the Important Interests of the city. P. E.
: icr was there on behalf of the South Omaha
Land syndicate , John Boyd for the Stock-
anls company , Councilman Smith , Bayllss ,
McMillan und Hnffcrty for the city and
Messrs. Persons , Hunt , Howlnnd , Cockcrcll ,
Anderson nnd Erlon for the board of trade.
The meeting was not n formal ono , but ono
n which the best Interests of South Omaha
wcro represented , and in which routine busi
ness wan supplanted by an Informal talk In
which all present became better acquainted ,
nnd many little differences wore amicably
jxplalncd. Hon. W. A. Paxton would hnvo
been there only that ho was prevented by Ill
ness , and Mr , ller as far ns possible took hi.s
l > lnco. His safe to say that the policy of the
Stackyards Co. and of the land syndicate ,
was never so thoroughly understood ns nt
Lho mooting , nnd that it was novcr before so
thoroughly understood that the best inter
ests of South Omaha njo Identical with the
best Interests of these companies. The
grading of Twenty-fourth street was first
considered anil Mr. Her explained that his
company had ngrccd to expend $2,000 for
that purpose , with the understanding that
the work would be done within the limits of
South Omnha. The agreement had been
partly written nnd partly verbal , but the
company had expended the necessary $2,000
H remained for the county commissioners to
complete it , nnd he had no doubt but that
they would. The grade had never been olH-
ciallv established , but it was intended to bu
of full width 100 feet. The main object of
the Land company was to secure a road
through to Omahn , and the quickest nnd
most direct way wns along Twenty-fourth
street to Vinton nnd up Vlnton to Six
teenth. They Imtl secured thb services
of nn attorney to linn out If the county com
missioners could legally do any paving or
grading along the route within the : ity
limits. Ho thought , however , that South
Omaha should provide for sewers , water
and gns before doing any paving.
When the question of viaducts came up ho
said that tlio two proposed would cost nbout
$70,000 or $30,000 npleco , and in the present
state of the city's finances ho thought the
one at L street wouldnnswcr all purposes for
the present und be of more practical benefit
to the city. It would connect with Omaha by
way of Twenty-fourth street , and furnish
a good roadway for Armour & Co. nnd any
other packers who wanted to supply the re
tail markets. Ho thought the city could not
stand the expense of both viaducts , mid that
if In order to do It they made n high assess
ment or tin excessive levy , they would only
drive from the town the manufacturers that
other cities are trying to nttract. The land
company was willing to construct the L
street viaduct nt their own expense
providing the ono at Q street wns not built
on the proceeds of bonds issued. If bonds
wcro to bo issued , they should bo issued for
both , nnd in any case the land company and
the stock yards company would bear the
greatest share of the cost , ns they wore the
heaviest taxpayers. Tlio companies did not
wish in any way to oppose the Q street via
duct , but wished it to bo understood that
they at all times wished to bo hand and
glove with these working for the interest of
South Omaha. Thoywere will to bo very
liberal. Further discussion ensuedin which
Councilman Bayliss , Smith , Kufferty and
McMillan , ns well ns the board of trade rep
resentatives , pointed out that the Q street
viaduct was a necessity , as nearly all railway
facilities occurred there , and a man's life
wns worth more than the estimated cost.
Finally , Mr. Her said that if they wished to
issue bonds to build the land company would
not only offer no opposition , but ho
thought would cash nearly , if not nil ,
the bonds issued. He , however ,
advised them to go slow , nnd not go into
needless expense. Regarding scivernife , ho
thought the stockyards company would have
no objection to N street being drained into
their big sewer , nnd ho would call a meeting
of that company any time the city council
desired. Before he loft it was in n manner
understood that the proposed improvements
would include the two viaducts , the com
pletion of the grade on Twenty-fourth street ,
nBOweronN street , the paving of N street
between Twenty-seventh and Twenty-fourth
streets and a stone pavement on Twenty-
seventh street between N nnd Q. Citizens
will bo called upon to vote for the necessary
bonds , which will be made payable twenty
years from dale , and only cost present prop
erty owners a slight annual tax. In the
mean time the money will be spent in South
Omaha and the magic city will boom.
This Year'K Assessment.
Within twenty-one days , or on Junol , the
South Omaha assessors will be prepared to
hand in their vualuations. and the result will
bo a surprise party to many. To some It may
be an unpleasant surprise , but to the great
majority it will show that some men at least
can fearlessly do their duty. They have
gone nbout it in the manner outlined in THE
BEE , and as a result the assessment
will bo advanced from last year's figures of
$590,000 , to. about $2,000,000 or $2,500,000. and
this mcr case is not to be placed on the pack
ing houses or manufacturers , as muny sup
posed it would. They will have to bear a
share , but the assessors hnvo recognized the
fact that some consideration is duo them for
having helped to build up the city , and by
the employment of labor still helping to keep
It where it is. It is nftcr men who
will hnvo a lot assessed nt $10 , and
then ask $ JOO for it , they are
looking , nnd they have come across several.
One lot was valued at $300 last year and this
year it will show up at $ a,500. There are
many more such cases but it is only right to
say that Assessor Kane , nnd his assistants
II. J. Curtin nnd James Dougherty are try
ing to lee le nftcr them till nnd perform their
duty without fear or fnvor.
