WASHINGTON , I ) . O. , April
There Is on Hie with the supervising archi
tect of the United States treasury the fol
lowing letter , which speaks for itsolf. In the
main , it Is n duplicate of another letter llled
liy Judge Novlllo with the secretary of the
treasury , and which loiter had upon its back
the endorsement of Senator Mandorson , cer
tifying to its correctness ID all essential par
ticulars ,
WASHINGTON , D. O. , April 5 , 19S9. fron.
Mr. Wlndrlm , Supervising Architect : \Vo
wish to state some facts as to tno merits nnd
ilcmcrlts of the two sites , ono proposed nnd
recommended by Mr. Llnton , oDlclally and
Blslnlcrostcd , which is on the lovcl nnd In
the buMncM center , nnd the other rccom-
tnondotl by Governor Saundcr * nnd E. Hose-
water , which Is sltualed on the hill , and , as
District Judge Dundy or Mr. Hose water says
In his letter recommending it , "in the quiet
repose of the city. "
There are some facts which make It almost
Impossible to locate the postofllco building on
the hill , viz. :
From Farnam street to Douglas on Eigh
teenth street there 1& n rise of about 00 feet ,
It may bo more. From Fifteenth street ,
present postofllco silo on Douglas lo
Istghlccnlh In a rise of about 100 foot , nnd
west ts middle of block proposed by Hose-
water Is still more of n rise , making it quite
over a hundred font rlso on Douglas.
Douglas stiect must bo brought to n level ,
Dr near It , with Farnam on Eighteenth
Btreot , to meet the usual demands of United
Btatoi supervising architects of the pasl ,
and presumably of Iho present ono.
If not brouirht to a level with Farnam It
Would bo quite Impractical to get the mail
transported to the rear of the building. How
will this Immense amount of grading bo
tlonol
Under our statutes this established grade
cannot bo changed without first nn nsse&s-
tnent and nllowunco of damages to all the
nbuttlng owners an Douglas and Eighteenth
Btrcols affected thereby , or by a waiver of
damages by all such owners.
There are numerous citizens owning where
the cut will be made , and on cross streets
near by , who never will waive
this damage as u mere ob-
blructton , because they otvn business
property below on the business level affected
by the removal of the postolUco building on
the hill. Then the city council must proceed
to assess and act on the damage for * th.ls
change of grade nnd pay for iho grading.
This cannot bo done ul all , I llilulc ; but if
effected , will bo with such delay as will bo
deplorable bv reason of facts , namely :
Wo have in our city council I. S. Hascall
With his friends arrayed against E. Hose-
\vator upon old political feuds. These men
Jvill never permit this grade to bo changed ,
If for no other reason than to defeat Rose-
water. This is not pleasant to any , but pub
lic interest calls for the whole truth.
I see a telegram on file saying all parties
interested have waived damages as to change
of grade. This is utterly untrue and noth
ing but the walvor in writing filed with you ,
property sworn to , will , I think , satisfy you
us an olllclal.
2. There Is on alloy twenty foot wide nnd
EG4 feet in the block proposed at Eighteenth
nnd Fnrnnm ,
Now this must bo condemned. It will not
bo vacated nnd given by the city council for
Bamo reasons which I have related as to
change of grade.
Knowing the war between those contend
ing factious , made more intense by the prop
erty affected in business center , au ordi
nance vacating the alley cannot bo had , and
It c.innot l > o done except by or
dinance nppiovcd by the mayor ,
under our charter of Omaha , the
inuyor wanting the site on Thirteenth nnd
llnrnoy , and there interested. ( See hi letter -
tor on lllo for bloek 80. ) So you see cou-
dcmnution is Inevitable except It bo block
6'J , or some other block without an alley. The
diniculty of condemnation is more intriealo
Vrhon Iho alloy Is lo bo tnlten , because It
springs some legal questions under our law
upon condemnation , which must bo followed
under the act making the proposition. The
Condemnation as to SO , which Mr. Linton
recommends , is void of those troublesome
questions , as Ihoro Is no alloy , all other own
ers In the block * having agreed to lake the
appraised va.luo as I tun informed. . The same
conditions apply to 69 , ns there Is no alloy
nnd no grading to do , and block 89 is lust ono
block east of present postoflico building , and
perfectly satisfactory to a great majority of
tlio business people , I think.
One other suggestion as to grading : Block
115 on the hill now has u perpendicular banit
about twenty to Ihlrty feet nigh on Farnaui
street , running out to nothing on Douglas
Btrcot. Several cuts Imvo been made on
Fnrnam. If Douglas street Is cut , ( assum
ing It possible ) , then Iho whole block pro
posed by Mr. Uosowator will sUnd nil round
the sdiiaro Iwenly lo forty feet perpendicu
lar above the surroundings.
Now the excavation for the foundations
must bo SO fuel , so wo have n removal of diit
from 10 to 50 feet lo slurt this building.
One more ihought. I understand that In
locating postofllco sites , the supervising ar
chitects in tlio past have refused to go up on
0 hill or rise for the reason ,11131 the cities
pan cut the street in front of the poatonlco if
they wisji and inconvenience tlio United
Elates service and in some Instances the gov
ernment has been almost compelled to aban
don her costly buildings.rlhls is a potent
reason for n level or plateau silo , especially
In an established bUHinesa center where all
interests domnnd n permanency of grade.
9'hls question of change of grade has almost
universally controlled the supervising archi
tects , as they did not wish to subject their
costly work to the ravages of a city council
nnd especially n western olio with many hills
to cut and where they Imvo cut three or four
times the smno street , at the name pluco.
n. As to tlio value of this property reach-
Ins f 100,000 , I must say that 1 have been
twenty-one years familiar with real ostnto
valuo.s in Omaha , nnd lot mo ussuio.vou this
whole block will not bo appraised at inoro
than $373,000. But to provide for contingen
cies , the owners about this block under the
bill executed a bond in Iho sum of $50,000 ,
the consideration of which Is the benoflta of
locating the nostoftlco building upon block 0.
This Is a valid consideration , nnd such bond
la Rood without qucalion.
Furthermore , some of the parties who
Blgnod it are bovoral times over inillioimlics.
Hut in addition to this , indemnity bonds
were executed hy other oltlzons Interested , to
these men who signed this baud to the
United States. Thosa indemnity bands are
conditioned that If these innkcra of the flist
bond to the United States shall pay any
money to the United States or property
owners , on account of appraisement ever
the WOO.OUO , they will make it good , save tlio
Illtlo portion duo for original bomlmakcrs.
Can It bo paid that these Indemnity bonds
are not good If tlio money shall bo paid over
by the original bondiimkors. No good law
yer will say they are not binding. But the
original bondsmen are Interested deeply In
' the location a-id will nay the money over
rapidly and Hint would bind the InJvmnlty
bomls'iion.
In addition , a subscription of many thou-
Band dollars was rained as a precaution to
jncot any over appraisement.
This appraisement and condemnation matter -
tor is over and ever provided for , and as you
Will have to condemn any way.it appears bust
to take that on a level and suited to the best
Interest of the government nud the oltUans
Of Ouinluu
District Judifo Dundy , or Mr , Hojowatcr
ars in his luttor fuvorublu to the site on the
bill , that ho would like to got
tlio United Slate * business In a place
Of quiet and repose. I thought
the postonico waa Intended for a place ol
jiUKli , rush and noise of business , at least U
eon becomes such u placa if not located In
ono. Being United States attorney fur
nearly nine > oar * and constantly bo fore the
old Judge , I became familiar with bis pecu
liar decisions , similar to this , whore the
United Stales and a private individual were
Intrrimlod. 1 may nave been prejudiced ,
but I thought ho wat for the Individual Jlrst ,
last and all the time.
t. 'Iho citizens owulnj ; property fronting
near the present postonico building bought
nnd gave the site to the United Stales. They
do not ask n return ol values but simply
equity. That n , that nil things being equal ,
[ heir property should not bo depreciated to
simply benefit 6thor private parllos who gave
nothing to the United Stales for the present
building.
A government demands equity and Justice
from her subjects , shall * ho not do equity !
Yours truly , JAMBS NEVILLK.
It Is Genuine.

Mr. II. H. Warner lias placed in my
possession the formula } of the several
medicines manufactured and sold under
the general designation of "Warner's
Snfo Remedies. " I have investigated
the processes of manufacture which are
conducted with extreme care and ac
cording to the best methods. I have
taken from the laboratory samplps of
all the articles used in the preparation
of those medicine3ag well as the several
medicines in which they outer. I have
also purchased from dittoront druggists
in this city "Warner's Safe Remedies , "
and upon critical examination I find
thorn all entirely free from mercury and
from poisonous and deleterious sub
stances.

Wo cannot think that a firm of the

that it is absolutely and unqualifiedly

DRAWING TO A CLtOSE.
The Oklahoma Contingent U Getting
Heady For Departure.
The Oklahoma craze is still active , but the
conferences grow loss , and the attendance
also. Out of 1.500 , who were loud in ex
pressing their determination to emigrate to
the now territory from Omaha , It is safe testate
state that at least thirteen hundred will re
main where their chances for obtaining a
livelihood are bolter. At least they have so
decreed. Yesterday afternoon and evening
a conference was hold In Kaspor's hall , but
nothing of importance xvas transacted. Tlio
"colonists , " to the extent of about seven
hundred , are gradually forming the opinion
that the "hanging gardens" of Oklahoma are
not what Captain Smith pictured them when
hK silver tones prompted many an unsophis
ticated individual to reach into the remote
corner of his pocket and extract the requi
site 93 for membership in the "colony. "
Smith is still enthusiastic ever the matter ,
nnd will depart for the now Held this even
ing or to-morrow. President West could not
bo found last night , but the members of the
colony express conQdence in him. At any
rate tlioro will be no body of men leave
Omaha of sufficient magnitude to be styled a
' colony. " At the G. A. U. hall last night a
number of old veterans Joined the proxy
boom , nnd Cuming will leave here with a
largo batch of napors to bo llled Ar claims.
Gumming will likely leave hero to-day , al
though this hns not been fully determined
upon. Andy Wiggins and J. R Henderson ,
two old union soldiers , will depart for Okla
homa ever the Missouri Pacific to-day. The
scheme to colonize in the ranks of the
Omaha contingent when securing claims is
rapidly fulling.

The work of the prohibitionists In confer
ence closed tonight. . It AVOS nf tor the usual
order of Buch things In every respect. There
YTM nn Interchange of sentiment between
the delegates sent to represent the different
temperance organizations throughout the
state , nnd n Rood time generally , ns the dolo-
Katlons u-ouhl probably put It , and they en
joyed n feast of good things. There wcro
speeches and song service , a regular class
meeting , so to spenk. Hut Chairman Dleltlo
wni the gro.it central flguro. Ills speeches
were enthusiastically received nnd his senti
ments pronounced the "Alpha nnd Oinoga"
of tno movement , BO far ns they related to
the submission question In the state ; and to
plan the campaign of the two years to como
In favor of constitutional prohibition was
the solo and only object of the conference.
It will bo pronounced n success by
prohibitionists nil over the state.
There were probably three hundred
delegates In attendance. Asldo from them
the good women of the city made ui > the
audiences. They showed hearty apprecia
tion of the movement. They greeted each
other with hourly hand-shakes and embraces ,
spoke their pieces when called upon , and
added much to the general entertainment.
A temperance convention would bo nothing
without the women. It would bo a ship on a
stormy sea without a rudder. Mrs. King , ef
Lincoln , talked and was cheered. Mrs.
Holmes , of Tecumseh , read a very Interest-
In ? paper. Thoy.did not wr.ingla nor quar
rel. Some of the gentlemen did. One
wanted It this way , and nnottizr that. Uut ,
after discussion. It was decided best to Imvo
the third party lese Its Identity in the flght
for constitutional prohibition. This was gall
and wormwood for Scott nnd Hawley and
Templin. Wolfcnbargcr was out of town.
The anti-saloon republicans were there In
force and captured the convention. This
was the reason the third party fellows toolc
a back scat. 1 Jut why llnucri There Is no
good reason on earth. The story of the con
ference is told when it is said that from
three hundred to six hundred people at
tended the sessions and that there wcro
papers nnd songs and speeches. They all
related to temperance nnd temperance work.
Major Hilton , of Washington , D. C. , nd-
drcsscd the concluding session of the con
ference. Ho was greeted by a largo
audience.
The committee on plan of work recom
mended "that the prohibition party , the
Good Templars , the W. C. T. U. , the null-
saloon republicans , democrats and united
labor men use their organisations to carry
out the agitation for the passage of the pro-
hlbitorv amendment to our state constitu
tion. Wo further recommend that in each
county and precinct leagues bo organized ,
and that all people , of whatever political
opinion , ns far as possible , co-opcrato with
the leagues for carrying the amendment.
Wo further recommend that the rightfully
constituted odlcors of the aforesaid organiza
tions confer together to provide -for an
economic distribution of labor , so that the
greatest good may be accomplished with the
least expenditure of time and money. Wo
would further recommend that a number of
mass meetings bo held in different Darts of
the state for the purpose of creating public
sentiment in favor of the amc'ndment.
The plan was signed by George Scott ,
Caroline M. Woodward , L. B. Palmer and
George N. Gibson.
The following resolutions wore adopted :
Ilesolvcd , By the Nebraska State prohibi
tion conference , hold at Lincoln , April 17 and
IS , 1SSO :
1. That , whereas , the last session of the
legislature saw lit to submit to a vote of the
people the question of n prohibitory amend
ment , wo pli'dgo the several organizations rep
resented by us tliat during the next eighteen
months wit will put lorth our most earnest
and persistent efforts to secure the embodi
ment of prohibition in the organic law of our
tate.
2. That while wo deem it for the best in-
cst of the rause that wo enter this amend
ment campaign each organization under its
own banner , working through its own meth
ods , wo will most cheerfully co-operate with
all lovers of homo , either In their individual
capacity or as organizations who are honestly
laboring for the triumph of the same great
principle.
3. That while wo will bo untiring in labor
for this great cause by the methods wo sev
erally doom best , wo do not propose to carry
partisanism into our work or pass unfriendly
criticism upon those who" work bydilleront ,
methods hut with just as sincere motives.
4. That whereas strong drink Is tlio great
est curse of the laboring class , we urge on
the labor element of the entire state , of
whatever party nfilliation , to unite with us
In carrying the state for prohibition.
5. Whereas a non-purtioan conference Is
being called to meet In this city on Juno 5 ,
therefore- resolved , that as individuals wo
lecognba the most perfect freedom to attend
that , and any other movement to ultimate
victory.
0. That with charity for all and malice
toward none , wo enter hopefully and deter
minedly into this contest for God , homo nnd
native land , and urgently call on the prohi
bitionists , the W. C. T. U. , the Good Tem
plars , nnd all other temperance organiza
tions to each perfect its machinery , adopt
its own methods , strengthen Its own orgiinl-
tion , and then inarch forward in hearty sym
pathy with each other's wont for a combined
assault on the most formidable citadel of the
rum jwwer high license.

Pleurisy Cured.
E. E. Dudley , Kingston , Ont. , says :
SI * years ago I caught a severe cold stand
ing in nn ice house with my coat off. I felt
myself getting chilly and went to the house ,
where I shook for half nu hour and then
had high fever and terrible pain in my side
and through my lungs. I put nn ALLCOCIC'S
I'ouous PI.ASTKU on my back and one on the
front of my chest , and in a short lime the
pain decreased and 1 fell asleep , and did not
awake until the next morning , when I was
again quite as well as ever. In telling my
doctor about it. ho s.ild I hail been attacked
witu pleurisy , and , possibly , pneumonia.

Special Easter Offerings ,
This ia tlio week for Boya Clothing' and wo propose to make it memorable. You
should see our goods before you supply your boya with au Easter outfit. Wo never had
such a big stock , never named such low prices , nor ever displayed such beautiful stylos.
Suits in all the newest patterns of cheviots , casaimorea and worsteds.
To give an idea of the values wo are offering , wo mention the following lots , which
will bo on sale to-inorrow :
Boys' darkblue flannel sailor suits , blousoa with embroidered collar , and knee panta
sizes 4 to 10 , at 75o.
Boys' good , strong Union Oassimero Suits-coat nicely pleated and of neat appearance ,
sizes 4 to 18 , at 95c.
Boys' strictly all wool cheviot suits of a nice , stylish pattern , with pleated coat and well
made up , sizes 4 to 13 , at $1.60 , This is an extraordinary bargain , as wo are positive such
a suit has never been offered for less than from $2.50 to $3.00.
A largo variety of handsome jersey suits at $2.50 , $2,95 and $3.25 , actual values $4.00
$5.00 and § 6.00.
Equally astonishing values will be offered in long pants suits , of which we have an
immense assortment. All the approved styles in cheviot , plaids , etc. , for spring wear ,
Wo have long pants suits from $2.50 upward.
An immense "variety of long and Knee Pants at prices less than you could buy the clot
for that is in them.
All our Boys Clothing is strong , reliable and wjll give satisfaction-ovory garment wfl
sell is warranted.
Our Men's Suit stock does not need much advertising this spring. It ia well known that
wo always carry tlie largest stock. The stores are scarce that can show a line of Spring Suita
worthy of comparsion with ours. And we want it understood right hero that wo not only
have the largest stock but also that in this stock can be found suits as choice as any house
can show them , or as any tailor can produce. We have a line of Dress Suita Prince Al
berts and three button Cutaways-which in quality of material , cut and raako are equal to
the best custom work. Our fine Silk lined Prince Alberts are marvels of beauty and fil
and the only difference between thorn and those of the fine Merchant tailors is the great
difference in the price. We are selling these goods at the same low rate of profit as we soil
all our other goods , and whoever buys a Dress Suit with out at least looking at ours , fails
to consult his own interest ,
Don't forget our new Shoo Department.
