wards of nil hour hiirraiitfuil tlio multitude ,
much to the satisfaction of the Jefferson
sqimrors. Ho simply wont over the old
ground , and advanced no argument that has
not boon bnuknoycd by the "boomers" and
their dec-iples for the last two months. Ho
did not forget , however , to toll the good ho
had done for the city In the way of Kradlnp.
puvinp , boworiiKO and building. Ho wanted
the city hull to bo located on .lofTorson
fl < l iiro , atid the principal moitvo that scumcd
to prevail in the mind of the speaker was to
Hot even with Uosovvater , The people became
came Impatient and called for Mr. Hose-
water , and after llasctUI had had his say
that gentleman appeared upon the platform ,
and after the applause had subsided , said :
"Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen : Ho is
thrlco armed who 1ms his quarrel just. " In
the contest now waged over the city hall re
location 1 feel that I am on the side qf right ,
justice , equity and law. Let me briolly re
view the History of the city hall location and
what has brought us to-day fm-o to fueo with
repudiation or corporate obligations and
raiders upon property rights which tlio com
munity is in honor hound to re-
spout and protect. The project of lo
cating the city hall on the corner
of KiL'htecntli and Karnain streets had its in
ception in nn cxlmngo of property mudo between -
twoon the city of Omaha and Urn county of
Noughts on the one side nnd William A.
Pnxlon on the other. The lots on
which the old Douglat county court
house was located , at the corner of Sixtcentf.
und Farnam streetswere claimed by the city
ns reverting to it when the site was aban
doned for a. court house , but General Cowia ,
as attorney for tlio county , held that the oc-
cnpuncy and possession of the lots for moro
than twenty years by the county gave tlio
county u valid title to this property. The
now court house wus about completed when
a compromise ! wan affected between the city
nnd county authorities by which the city of
Omaha secured half a block on the corner of
ISJKJiK-iiiun anil t'arnani streets in exchange
tor its claim , and the county of Douglas re
ceived SIU.OOO from William A. I'uxtoii as
iv bonus for these two lots ia exchange
for his lots. It was then and
there understood and verbally agreed be
tween Mr. I'axton and tlio county and city
authorities that tlm lots on the corner of
Klghtecnth and Farnani streets should be-
jme the city hall ground , and Mr. I'axton
promised nnd agreed to erect n five or six
story block on iho old court house site as
soon ns ho could got possession. Mr. 1'ax-
ton's promise has been made good by the
erection of tlio I'axton building , but the city
lms'U | > to this time failed to carry out its part
of'the agreement. In the summer of 18S5 ,
soon after the transfer had boon made by
Mr. Paxton of the lots in exchange with the
city and county the council took stops to
bring about the early construction of the
city hall. The llrst thing to be done waste
to get plans from on architect
known to bo competent and ex
perienced in the construction of public
buildings. Mr. E. 1C. Myers , of Detroit , had
built the court house of the county , which is
conceded to bo by all odus the best as well as
the cheapest public building west of Chicago.
No fireproof building had as yet been
planned by any Omahu architect und it was
deemed risky at that tluio to entrust inex
perienced men with auch work. In order to
expedite business and mnko sure of securing
plans from an expert , Mr. Myers was in
vited to come to Omaha , ami after consult
ing with the members of the council and ox-
Miiyoc Hoyd , ho returned to Detroit
und drafted plans suitable tor a
city hull building that would meet
the wants of Omaha not only at that tiuio ,
but for lifty years to come. A few months
later these plans xvoro brought to Omaha and
submitted for approval to the mayor nnd
council , as well as to n committee of the
board of education. It was thought economic
nnd advisable to have the board of education
join with the city in the erection of a city
hall and to malto prjvision for the joint oc
cupancy of this publlo building. To this end
propositions were made by the council to the
board , und were accepted by that body , and
a contract was entered into , which Is on rec
ord , whereby Urn ooard of education agreed to
furnish $33,000 , or about one-eighth of the
estimated cost of the city hall , towards the
erection of the city hall building , on condi
tion that the plans should bo Jointly agreed
upon and that the boord of education should
have set apart for its UBO a suflloient space
for Its accommodation. After the Myers'
) i1ans hail been agreed upon by tlm council
nnd the board , an orithinnco was passed and
submitted for ratification to the voters at the
Kcnorul election held on the fith Uay of No
vember , 1SS5. Under the provisions of this
ordinance the consent of the citizens was
asked to authorize the council to erect a city
ball and bourd of education building under
the plans of 1C. 1C. Myers , to cost not
exceeding f00KX ( > , at Kigliteoath and
Fanmin. A proposition was also submitted
by tlio bourd of education at the same elec
tion requesting the voters of this school dis
trict to authorize the bourd to expend $ ! ? r > ,000 ,
on the lots at tlio corner of Eighteenth and
"Pnriium In the erection of a building to bo
oocunlccl by the board of education. Hoth
of these propositions were before the public
for twenty days. They wore discussed fully
nt the lime , and when voted upon the Far-
mim street site , received u fraction over
Jl.tXiO votob with only 160 votes against it , and
the proposition of the board of education
carried by rilinost n unanimous vote.
"It Is charged untruthfully by the advocates
( if Jefferson squiiro that the citizens of
Oaiatm wcro bulldozed und duped Into mak
ing the location on upper Farnnm street and
voting $ -00,000 ef bonds lit tlio same election
in 188-5 , The fact Is that the project to con-
Htruct the city hall on upper Furnum street ,
opposite the court house , was generally ap
proved and scarcely a voice was raised in op-
jHisltion thereto , The fact is , also , Urn * , no
bonds were voted at the tlmo of this election
bccau&e there was no authority to vote bonds
under our charier , and wo had to xvalt two
years until the charter was amended before
the bond proposition could bo submitted. Dur
ing all these two years the men who now
clamor for.1 off arson square were contented
Hlmply to offer feeble opposition in the
council to every sten that was taken
for currying out tlio will of the
i > oupla a * expressed through tlio ballot
box in IbVi. When the bonds wcro submitted
in 1SST they fulled utterly to impress the
public with the Impropriety of Investing the
city's money In the city hall , as planned by
Myers , notwithstanding the fact that back
JirOs hud been started by disgruntled archi
tects , Malicious attacks wcro made upon the
Myers' plans by certain newspapers that
have always Imagined that they could build
themselves up by trying to down anything
that has been advocated by myself , or any
thing lit which I have a personal Interest. It
is true that the board of education had
paid la a small amount of money towttrd
Ki-udlni ; the city hall lots before the
bonds were voted nnd placed at the dis
posal of the city fJO.OOO for use in the cnso-
tlcti of t'to city hull busomsnt , but no work
was commenced on the building until af Uir

had been taken out of the city hull fund thu
tt > r.tr.ilor ! was ruliovod from his worlc nnd u
movement uumenccd to brini ; about a
change of location. The partita who arc
now carrying on the raid against upper
Fsrnixra street property owners had for
months nnd months operated In the
ilnrk nnd kept up systematic obstruction
of every effort to carry on the construction
of the building. They tampered with the
councllmcn nnd took advantage of the blttoi
contest between the council nod the police
commission in which I incurred the cnemltj
nnd dislike of the council by standing out In
favor of the police commission , which I bo
llovcd to bo a lawful body ; and when t In
vokcd the aid of the courts ana prevented
the consummation of the conspiracy con <
cocted by Jim Croighton , Hcdtnnn ana theli
associates , tnoy kept on neitntintr nnd plot
ting to prevent the resumption of work on
the city hail.
"You will remember that the court held
that the council could not change- the loca
lion of ttie city hall or take tiny steps to
change it unless It was authorized by a vole
of the people. The court also held that the
council could lint use the proceeds ot the city
hall bonds for any other purpose excepting
to complete the building as planned by
Myers , or under modified plans that would
carr" out Ills general design. When tin
council took steps to have these plans modi
fied , and Invited Omaha architects to submit
revised planstho conspirators with their cor
rupting influence manipulated tlio council
and blocked over.v effort of that body to pro
ceed with the work. They wont so far an to
spirit away councilmen that were elected
and pledged to go on with the work ,
nnd tlioy boasted openly of their In
famy. One night they spirited away
Councilman Van Camp , by what promises
or threats I know not , but every honorable
man must say that the efforts pursued by
these raiders are reprehensible , and should
bo rebuked nt the b.xllot box one week from
next Tuesday.
"Tho most disgraceful spectacle of the
present campaign Is the reckless misrepre
sentation to which the advocates of Jefferson
square hnvo resorted since the council has
ordered the location rcsubtnitted to ttio pee
ple. Wo are told that the foundations und
basement of the city hull on upper Farnnm
are utterly worthless , and that they must bo
torn up by the roots before any building
can bo erected on that spot. This brazen
falsehood is contradicted by competent ar
chitects nnd builders , who have mudo n care
ful inspection of the premises nnd found the
walls to bo substantial mid strong enough to
hold a six-story building , wita the possible ex
ception of a portion of n wall , which can betaken
taken down and replaced for loss than $1r > 00.
This Is the opinion of John P. Coots , Richard
Withncll , Mendelssohn .t Lowrey , 1C. B.
Myers , nnd S. S. Human , each of whom ia
thoroughly competent nnd has a reputation
at stake. Hut if it is true that the walls of
tlio city hall are all rotten nnd worth
less , in what light do thu champions
of Jefferson square stand , who in
and out of the council , were loud
In declaring tbat the Urcniuins1 worn was
satisfactory.
"Wo arc also told that the city hall , 120xl.T2
foot on upper Fnrnum , under Myers' plans
is good enough for a village or n small city ,
but that it could not possibly ncconimodato
the wants of n city of two or three hundred
thousand ppuulntiou. Lot us see whether
this is true. The floor space of our court
house equals about 1U.OOO square feet for
each story , and tlm county occupies but two
stories or about 'J-4,000 square feet. In this
space are accommodated the county treas
urer , county clerk , sheriff , county
commissioners , the law library ,
county court , court chamber nnd a
very largo courtroom which would ample for
a council chamber , The city hall building
on upper Rirnata has n lloor space of over
10,000 square feel. Three of those stories
would give the city nearly 50,1100 square feet
of lloor space for its ollicials , and leave two
stories for the board of ed
ucation and public library. I
Ventura to assert right here that no city of
half a million population in America requires
over 4'J.OJO ' square feet of olllce snaco for nil
the public olllcluls that may require accom
modation in a city hall ; and I assert further
right hero that the live stories of the city
hall building on Farnnm street offer as much
space for city ofllcials as is to-day occupied in
the Chicago city hall by the olllcluls of the
city of Chicago with a population of over
eiirlit hundred thousand.
. "I concede at the outset that utility is one
o'f the vital points in the location and con
struction of a city hall building , and I ask
you in all fairness whether the building on
Jefferson square , no matter how largo or im
posing , could meet the needs of Omaha in
the matter ot utility. A city hull buildinc
nowadays Is as public oflleo building con
structed cxprcsly to afford oflleo room for
the various ollicials of the city , and for no
other purpose. It should bo substantial ,
commodious and /Ireproof. Everybody must
concede that for public convenience and for
the uses to which the city hall is to be
put the site opposite the court house
is by all odds the most doslrablti. It hut al
ready been shown through the press , that
the Intercourse of our city ollicials with the
county ollicials , together with their business
In the county court , requires n constant
going to and from the two buildings. It
would bo u waste of time and a great inconvenience -
vonionco to compel the city attorney and en
gineer , the board of public works nnd the
city clerk to make half inilo trips several
times a week , nnd even several trips each
day , between the court house and Jefferson
square. Every trip from one of thcso build
ings to the other and back would bo a full
mile , und could not bo made without the loss
of twenty minutes. In almost every law
suit tried in the court house either for or
against the city the records and books-in the
custody ot Iho city cleric and city engineer
and the board of public works must be pro
duced , and thcso ponderous volumes and
maps wonld have to be carried to and from
those buildings half a mile each time. In
good wealher and bad , In rain and storm.
You would cither have to vote each of the
cily ofllcials n carriage or cab hire for trav
eling between the city hall on Joffnrson
square and the court house or bo at the risk
nf spoiling many public records and losing
Home of them. So much on the point of
ut ility.
"My friend , Major Balcouibo wrestled with
with the city hall problem throuirh iwo
columns of Iho Republican on last Friday ,
and I note that ntr.ong many stupid and ab
surd things ho declared that the tune has
come to call a halt on erecting any more pub
lic buildings on a hill , and ho assorted that
business never can and never will cross the
hills in any city while there is room enough
for it on the level ground. I beg to differ
with him on both these points , and with Mr.
Sidney Smith , who has a great deal to say
about King Solomon's temple , and other
great and grand and beautiful structures.
The bible tolls us tlmt King Solomon's tern-
plo stood on Mount /ion , nn the greatest nnd
highest hill that overlooked thu city of
Jerusalem. All the great temples reared
by the Orcoks , and for that mat
ter , all the greatest buildings of
ancient nnd modern times , have bcon con
structed on elevated ground , The Cupltol-
lun hill of Uomo was crowned with magnlll-
cent and imposing structures und menu
ments. Snlnt Peter's church , the Vatican ,
the quirinal and nil Iho great palaces and
temples of Uomo stand on thu hills , in every
great city In Europe whore elevations exist
public buildings , great churches nnd the
most magnificent structures have been roar
ed upon the elevated sites. And in our
country the capitol at Washington , which
has cost more than 25,000,000 already ,
stands upon tlm highest eminence of the
national capital , nearly UOO feet above the
level of the 1'otomuc , nnd congressmen and
senators , supreme judges and presi
dents have boon compelled to walker
or dnvo up the ( iront capital bill at
Washington. The state house at liostou , tha
capital ut Albany and Hartford , the capitol
ut Nuslivlllo and ut Springiiold , and oven the
capital ut DCS Molnes , all stand on hilU , tha
publlo buildings nt Pittsburgh nnd Allegheny ,
Hnltlniora and Cinclnnali , in fact in every
city that has commanding elevations at its
disposal , all stand on high hills. Our own
territorial capitol stood where now stands the
Omaha high school , and while Major Hal-
combo nnd his Jefferson square boomers want
a great and imposing structure erected at
the bottom of the plateau , within
four blocks of thu Missouri river ,
their children climb the old cnpi-
lol hill on their way to the high school
building thai Is known far and wide. And
since Iho children and touchers are put to
that groal Inconvenience , why should any
body complain about climbing Furnarn street
hill , which is at this time only n climb of ono
block from Sixteenth street , the grandest of
our thoroughfares , the DroiuUvay of Omaha ,
as Major HtUcombe declares. And what has
the major done to make Sixteenth street the
liroadwuy of Omahal Ho has adorned that
great thoroughfare with a large and ancient
wooden tiro-trap , which ho moved from the
corner of Thirteenth and Douglas streets.
Major Unlcainbo says you cannot got people to
build a city over the hills when you Imvo
ample room on thu plain. Ho reminds mo of
the fellow who wu jailed and porslitod in
saying"You cannot put me In .all. " He
talks about not building Iho clt.pvjr the
hills , nnd yo.t the city of Omnha to day ha.9
from twelve to fifteen streets ctisl of the
bills and twenty-Ova to thirty west , nil cov
ered with the best residences , public schools ,
churches , convents aud business houses ,
Westward the star of oinniro takes Its wn.Vi
nnd westward still Is the tidal wave of popu
lation in nil the great river cities , The plains
are left for the heavy business , depots , fac
tories , mills and warehouses , whllo the
hills nro adorned by great structures andole
gant residences.
Hut Major Hnleombo Is not the only man
In Omaha who raises the objection to Far-
nam streol hill ns n projier place for pub
lic buildings. One of our very prominent
bankers is quoted in the pamphlet whicti ha. ,
been issued on behalf of Jefferson square ai
follows : "I hope to see n building erected
that will bo a credll to our cily nnd whenever
I bring a friend around to show him
our city I don't want to have to use n tele
scope lo find onr cily hall. " How our footsore
sere bunker expects lo show his visiting
friends the most Imposing nnd costly build
ings of Omaha without going up
Farnnm street , I don't know. How
does hooxpcct to show his frlomli the cham
ber of commerce and Now York Life Insur
ance building , and how does he propose to
show them the court house , unless ho expects
to go up Farnnm I How does ho expect to
entertain his visiting friends at his house ,
which stands on upper Farnnm. unless betakes
takes them up the hill ! Another banking
friend , who has erected nn elegant $ fiOOUO
mansion somewhere about Thirty-sixth
street , lias also become very much affected
with the sumo disease , and claims that 11
would bo very Inconvenient to climb up
Farnnm street. Is It miy more inconvenient
to go two blocks nbovo the chamber
of commerce than it is to climb
Davenport straot , which is Iwlco as
steep as Farnnm , and then keep on
up several other hills to Thirty-sixth street !
"And now let mo sum up the issue as It will
have to be squarely met. Do you propose by
your votes to endorse the disreputable meth
ods to which the men who are trying to re
locate the city hall have resorted to accom
plish their end I Do you propose lo endorse )
meddling and corrupt tampering with the
council , inciting to lawlessness und rank re
pudiation I Do you propose lo commit thin
city to a policy that will say to the stranger
who comes hero to invest his money that ho
will run the risk of having ills investment de
preciated by wreckers and speculators who
want to put our public bulldimon wheels
nnd keep the city in constant turmoil
over their location , relocation and construc
tion ! Do you propose to siy ; tlmt extrava
gance mid recklessness shall bo encouraged
by abandoning Ihc site on which over ? il,0IJ ) (
have been already expended ! Do you pro
pose to countenance violation of contract ob
ligations incurred by the city whnn it ex
pended twenty odd thousand dollars of sehoil
money for the construction ot n city hull on
upper Farnam street in the attempt to
abandon the plans nnd site without even as
much as n notification of the school board era
a request for its conctirtence ! Do you pro
pose to plant the city hall half a inilo from
the court house nnd compel the county
and city ofliccrs to make daily and hourly
trips between these two buildings when
their services lire urgently needed In their
own offices } Do you propose to put the tax
payers of Omaha to the inconvenience of
traveling half a mile one way nnd half a
milo the other way every time they want to
pay their county and city taxes ) And do
you propose to endorse o scheme that would
inevitably result in endless litigation and
would prevent tha construction of a city hall
for many .Years to comui
"Tho delay caused by the interference with
the erection of the city linll has already done
more damage to this city than Iho men who
are carrying on this crusade can repair [ in
the rest of their lifetime. Half a
dozen blocks would have boon built
last year on Farnam and Ilarney
but for ihis controversy , and eastern capi
talists who have invested in property near
the city hall site uro justly Incensed at the
bail faith exhibited liy our city authorities.
What may wo expect if this raid succeeds !
Nothing but litigation and stagnation. And
yet thcso men expect that tlio workingmen
of Omaha will join them in a movement that
must result in discouraging capital from
undertaking substantial improvements.
Why don't these agitators improve the sur
roundings of Jefferson square ! Why don't
they prove Ihoir assertion that it is a business
centre by replacing the frame lire traps that
surround it on three sides , with first class
store buildings ! Why don't they go to work
and do something for the city before they
ask Iho city to improve their property at the
public expense and by the sacrifice of public
honori"
After Mr.Hosowator had finished his speech
about seventy of the Second wnnl residents
loft the hull , thinking the meeting ended.
Not so with the ' boomers. " They held
down their seats and culled vociferously for
Furay. There were but two Second ward
residents left , of which Mr. Kaspar was ono.
Mr. Kaspar moved to adjourn , but Mr.
Furay insisted upon speaking. Mr. Furay
then took the floor and eulogized Mr. I. S.
IIuscall at great length , evidently with the
intention of freezing out the two remaining
Second wtudors. Ho spoke for some time ,
nnd when he finished n resolution favoring
Jefferson square ns a city hall site was car
ried , there being nobody present but those
importc'd by the "boomers. "
" \Vliat Kcconics of Reporters.
Julian Ualph , in un article in the
Epoch on "What Becomes of Ho-
jiortorsV furnishes these data : About
thirty men reporting in Now York fif-
tcon years njjo arc still reporting , nnd
moro than half that number dictl in the
harness. In the sanio time possibly as
many as 150 mon drifted into tlio busi
ness , made no mark , and drifted out.
Of00 or moro reporters the writer had
known in Now York HO ivro still report
ing1 , 50 others are in journalism , and 20
of tlio romiiindor , who are now in ether
callings , are conspicuous before the
public. The daily press of Now York
omnloycs about : f50 reporters. Mi- .
Ralph concludes that journalism seems
to have but a small outlet into coiqmor-
ciul callings.
Prohibition In
Some interesting figures showing the
tendency of Massachusetts < m the ques
tion of licensing tuo sale of intoxicating
liquor have boon submitted to the leg-is-
Inturc bv the secretary of state , says n
Hoston dispatch. In 188B , out of JI19
cities and towns , only seventy-four , or
21 per cent voted to grant license. The
pouulrir majority against license showed
50.0 per cent of the people of the state
to bo iu favor of the policy of prohibi
tion. In 1SS7 , with the same number of
cities and towns , sixty-throe voted you.
The majority against license had become -
como 51.58 per cent of the total. The
total vote was 1(1.0 ( par cent greater than
in 1SSO. In 18S7 , when the number of
oities and towns was 351 , eight-live , or
2- per cent , voted yea. The total vote
increased 2.5 per cent in this vear , and
53,45 per cent was in frvor of liconso.
This is quite a setback for the prohibi
tionists.
IMi-H. Harrlflon'H Modesty.
Mrs. Harrison , wife of the president
elect , docs not wish to pose us u reformer -
former , says the Now Yorlc World. Slio
takes tlio ground that the lady of the
white hous'j is not ox ofiicio u leader of
fashion. Shu argues that her personal
views regarding the usa of wino , the
wearing ot the bustle , the morality of
tlio dance and such liUo topics should
have no wolght with the public simply
because her husband happened to be
elected president. She u u thoroughly
independent woman nnd has n great
contempt for those of her sax who look
to the president's wife ( or guidance in
matters which should be settled ac
cording to individual tastes.
Queen Victoria' * Will.
Several erroneous statements have re
cently appeared in the papers about tlio
queen's will , says Lauouohero. The
real truth ia that her majesty's will was
rondo in 187G and is u document of por-
tontious length , bolnff engrossed on vel
lum , quarto size. It is bound up in a
huge volume , which Is secured by aleck
lock , and at the end are several blank
pages for codicils , ot which up to the
present the queen has made throe ono
early in 1870 , alter the death p ( , Prin

The truly monster1 6titerprlso of the

This will open n whole1 'continent ' of duo
agricultural and stoVki lands , besides
tlio best timber In til eWorld , and mines
of great value. At present great prov

manufacturing industries , ns well as

until railroad facilities arc afforded.

The astonishing development of the
