Boulton , the attorneys of the two branches

made things unpleasant for the oudco , dls

ostensibly the jamo purpose , there is no love
lost between the jo two limbs of the law ,
each persisting that the other is not prose

thus fur proved qulto a Jonah for Mr Uoul
ton A temporary Injunction was issued
some time ago , and then Boulton stoppou in
nnd wanted unothur ono Manors finally
cumo to such a pass that Sims had Boulton
arrested for perjun , and Boulton retaliated
bv preferring u similar chnrgo against Sims '
The cases were tried and both discharged ' ,
but Boulton did not got his injunction lhu
ciso now is to lm\o the temporary Injunction
made permanent In thocourtoof tbo hearing
the court wanted to know how ithuiipeuel
that Boulton uppejrod on both sides of tbo
ease prosecuting Crow for himself and do-
fending him whou biuiB tried to prosecute <
him Boulton trlod hard to make the court
see It ills way , buttbe Juugo could not under
stand it and Uoultou * , aiu ll up and wanted
to go on with the case after roasting the
newspapers , saloon men attornujs and
o\erybodi In gouuril Finally Sims called
Boulton to the witness stun 1 , and then the
run boMin
' When were \ou in Crow place of busl- '

Boulton objected but dually said ho was
there the , ,
on ureccdlngoviiiing He was at
Crows residence Yes , it might also bo his

and ho coul I not say what was going on
there Ho didn't know what a bar wit but
there was something that ho would-tall u
counter Ho didn't rcJty know whether ho

but finally concluded that bo bad been b'von '
some boer on tbo occasion of his last visit
lhoro were sevoril parties there , and ho fig
ured it up that ho bad live glasses of the amber
fluid and paid the sum of 3S cents therefore
He did not seoin tq realize that his testimony
wua virtually convicting his client of con
tempt in violating tbo temporary Injunction | J" ,
which still holds , and when Sum lualuuuted
that Boulton s unwillingness tu answer the
questions propounded might be duo to a fear
of criminating himself , that worthy shook
his leonluo mauo fruutlcullj and Intimated
that with the courts permission ha would

j friend Mi McMillan , tlio credit for break

Johnston can 11ml on the minutes or the
meeting ! of November .li 11:53 If ho wishes
Mr : Johnston also knows ho was anting a
falsehood ' when ho said tlio major had the
casting j vote and voted to lot the contract to
build ' the L street vmduct as the city
records show nothirg of the kind lho
mavor ' did not liuvo io vote But beftro
wo drop thu Q street vi idtict question I
wish to see how the lSbi ) council chaugod the

the ' minutes of the council mooting or on tlio ,
asking for the change In tl o Q strcot via

over ' the lbSd council made
As to the L street viaduct Mr Johnston
givosMr McMillan ind Mr Burke credit
for | lighting tbo combine is ho calls it lhe
evoninc < , the contract was let for the L street
viaduct tliu contract was nnt let to the low
cat ' bidder J know but vas lei to the com
panythit 1 we thought ' ( .nn thebeststiue
tuio for tbo inonej as the citizens maj judco
for themselves Mr Burke was there and
und ! Mr McMillan wus Up ind dovvu ill d iv
while the cdminitteo cn ( streets nnd allojs ,
with the assistant engineer , wi io opening
the bids but would not comulnto _ the ofneo
I suppose ho thuuctit wo ou ht to yo out and
taue hinr bv lhc > arm und escort him
in It wns the committee on streets and
alleys with the onInter , , that was em
powered to open the Dids on both viaducts
nnd report to tno council when it comes
down to tha point just as , thu committee on
nuance did iu ISsJ when the bids on the
paving bonds for twenty seventh street
were opened , anu when they reported bacK
to the council it w is acted on without a
word und If that had to bo done In lbSS
there would bo kicking all lho same bo
much for the vladuits
In looking over Mr Johnston'sublo speech
1 happened to overlook a place where he
says the present council ODcns all Its bids at
the council mectliiL , * In the prcsenro of the
bidders und the public Did Mr Jchnston
open the bids for the paving bonds of
lwonty seventh street before tno council
and the public ) I guess not Ho opened
the bids in his own otllco und had them nil
on a plcco of paper ut the next meeting , if I
am not mistaken
f > cst ho goes on witb a great string about
the llrst bonds thai Were sold what they
wcro for and how they wcro not to bo called
for only ns they wcro needed and how the
cltv lost So 000 by not having thorn on hand
it is lee bal Mr Johnston was nut treasurer
in 18S8 and then wo would bo bettor oft
inuvbo
Mr Johnston then Oocs on to sav if the
bonds that were not needed were held buckler
lor a year , they vould have brought consld
eruble more premium Sucn Aught bo the
case andstill it might not Ibis Is only Mr
Johnston's word and suppose It wua the
smartest In the world it is liable to mis-
tunes as the gentleman makes lho remark
inonepirtof his message as such I must
call it , it is bo long and windy , that thocoun
cil of 1SSS was composed of business men
and great fluanclors It Is a pity wo hadn't
him and wo would bo nil right Lho next
ha speaks about is the sewer built in lsbS
Hero I will not detain the reader long as I
thought at the tlmo wo miht ( havodono it in
a uilTerent wij
lho next beeomos to Is the gr idlng Ho
has a string of figures on the cost of the
grading that was done in 18S3 that arc as-
tonishing I wonder if the figures are richi , !
I am sure ho took none off if ho did not u id
to lho only nilstaka 1 see that the 1833
council made was that they traded too much
inDnoyear , and Mr Johnston don t have to
pay for much or It I guess
But the citizens and taxpayers or South
Omaha stayed with us all the same on the
grading question of 1883 , straight through
1 he next bu speaks of is trading streets that
are not dedicated Now bo mentions several
streets , but particularly Thirtieth street
from Q to Dim Mow , ho made a mistake i
there and ha is just as liable to make it on
other streets Why , deut ho tell the truth
when ho goes about itt
Let us boo in regurd to rhirtloth street
from Q south to Llm [ If Mr Johnston will !
look again bo will find It as follows lho pe
tition for the gradlng-af thirtieth street was i
gotten up by Jotter ilk young nnd others , and I
it only called for a partial graao Just as the i
property owners on went h strcot did in 1S8W , ,
when tboy asked for it to bo graded Now , ,
ha toes on to say that from Llm street to i
Hodman street was rfM dedicated and Ib not
toduy , and that thousands of dollars were >
spent on a private roiid If ho takes the i
pains to took bo will Ma that fiom Hoffman i
to Lggers street is dodfeatod , und from B „ -
gers io Trancls utreet on the w est sldo is not
dedicated , 1 admit bill"Is owned bv Mr Jet
tor and bo has paid his'half for that portion i
like a man Ihen rpm Prancis to Elm i
street on the west bicT , is fronting my addi
turn and I want Mrjlfnhnston to understand I
that tee ono half of that is paid for
On the east sldo from Hoffman south to i
Elm street is us follow !
trom Hoffman to liy An strcot is also acre
propoi tj , part of it Is owned by Mr Jettor
und part of it by Mr Iiyan but in 168J by ,
the consent of thu council Mr Hj an dedi
cated bis portion to tbo eitv in consideration
for the ( .rudlng ussossed against him for the
same and from Ityan to Llm street Is dodi
cated Now , If Mr Johnston or auy other
gentleman had an establish'ent located on
Thirtieth street like Mr Jotter has ho would
bo anxious to have that ttreot opened so us
they could truvol in and nut to the c ty just
the same as has been done for other firms
So he mav rest easv about thirtieth street ,
It will como out all right , if It is a pnvuto
road , aa ho calls it
As to the ocbor streets ho mentions I dent
profess to know anything ubouu lho next
ha sp > > uks about is Mr Welch of the South
Omaha Ice company In rojard to the dam
ago on account of the Q street viaduct
The ) have hoard that often enough at the
council meetings of Ibb ) and I think that
part of bis Bpeech is llko au old piece of
cheeso-Jit Is getting stale
Ho then toes on to say that the expenses
f Ibb'J were cut down considerably lower

THE WAY TO GET TO THE LARGEST IMPLEMENT HOUSE IN THE WORLD
than 1SSS It is a pity they were not Loon nt
the work that was done In 18S3 comparol
with 1880 Does ho think the | ooplo of South
Omaha are blind I also class tbit part of
his speech "to them "
Iho next ho shows a table of the cost of
the aniline In 1SS0 I will ncknowledgo
that ho Is grcnt liguror Wliv of
course the 1889 council coull got the work
done cheaper than S council beciuso they
had something to back thorn with , what the
188S council hndn't As the old proverb
unys n child must creep before it walks If
Mr Johnston would look ut the old city roc
oids or Omnhii I think ho would not bo so
fast In criticising the council or 18 S or bouth
Omnln Whcu the council of 18 > > ) let the
contrnct for the griding or Q Btreet from
Iweuty fourth to Iweitv-sccond street * ,
why did thov not lot it clean throuc.h to
Iwcnty sixth and nsscss it up equally on the
proportv values it would not cost moro than
f. 0U or $ " 00 to finish the ( , iado from lwcntv
fourth < street to Twenty sixth strcot and it
will have to bo done next R ) ring , If the elec
tile motor compmj wishes to eioss the Q
street viaduct 1 will le no this to tno prop
erty owners on Q street from twenty Touith
to lwonty sixth to doiidoon
Isow , In 183J the council sat as a board of
equalization ou Juno U , and thov cut down
the valuition of all the packing houses and
the stockyards and the banks and some ncro
propertj belonging to the lai d company
uhou onScDtombcr lbbJ.tbey cuttho banks
down nealn for the second titno Does ho
think the council done this according to law I
If ho does then wo must have different laws
to what tbo county commissioners have If
the packing bouses nnn the stockj nrds and
the banks and that aero property was as
scsscd too hlfch , then all the reBt of the prop
erty In South Omaha waa
Now there was an ordmanco passed Au
gust 10 lfesj changing the grade on Iweuty
fourth street from N to O stioct ( but It was
not approved by the mayor ) , wh'ch will cost
the citj a little to scttlo 1 ask what wa3 the
cost of the change ,
There are other things which hnppened in
ISsJ 1 but I dent wish to waste any moio time
and 1 would not have midc those few remarks
marks onlj my friend , Mr Johnston started
it Onlv in ono instance where the council
ot I 89 did a sneaking trick in the appointing
ot Mr Suvago to 1111 the vacancy in tbo
Tourth ward ciused by the resignation of
Mr I onno Why did not the 18v . ) council
1,0 at it like ccntlcmen und not
tike the ndvuntago of the mujoi
whllo hu wis up In Omaha looking after tlio
affairs ot the city If they wanted Mr bav
nee bo bad why didn t they appoint him ever
the tnnjoi s head at some meeting when ho
was present Just as they did when thev np
pointrd our city attorney Mr rarnsivorthl
1 class It as a sneaking trick
Buito conclude my short temurks I wish
to aajf the gentleman what good does his
long 1 speech do the citizens nnd tax-pavers of
South Omaha now ) What the council did
in I 1SS3 let it be right or wrong Mr Johns
ton nor uny one else cant remedy it Wliut
was done in 1888 was done in good faith and
in I ton years from now will not be noticed
Tnero have been remarks made around lho
streets by parties that there was $2 000 made
on thesidi1" at the llmo the L Btreet via
duct < was lot The parties bad better look
out and not judge ethers by themselves I
give t Mr Johnston credit for spending so
much time in writing up the lriancos of the
yeur 1 1838 and 18s > J but why did ho not fo
buck I to the council of 1SS7 1 think ho
could < lind a few mistakes that were undo
In i that year But I will lcavo his sneech
( I which is a vorv able one I ad mil ) an J my
shorl i nnswer to the citizens aud taxp lyors of
South ! Omaha to decide uuon I might h ivu
made i a few mistakes but I dent say nut
Dluut I , as mv friend says in his remarks that
these I nro facts and nothing but facts I
wish ' it understood thai I have no personal
feeling 1 niminst nnj member of the city coun
cil < of 1883 or 188J Outsiloof the cil } offl
ccrs i there is no bed ) or men but will disa
gree i on several points If Mr Johnston
wishes to answer ho can , but I hnvo no moro
to l say on this question lhoro wore mis
takes 1 made in 1838 and 1SS9 and will continue )

Messrs Levy , Mnyberry and MiOucken

J C Carroll opposed a track on N street
Ho considered the street too narrow and believed -
lioved the present level furnished all the i
