Chairman IJIrkliattHoi- Says It is Not
IJono Properly.
Chairman Birkhauser says that ho shall
decline to approve the claim of the Barber
asphnltum paving company for $3,000 , on their
trect sweeping estimate.
IIu. says that the company was notified
ninety days ago that they were cleaning the
streets in a manner far from satisfactory ,
nnd that them would certainly bo
tron bio If they did not do better.
Notwithstanding , Mr. Birkhauser says the
company has fulled to comply with the in
structions , or , in tlio least , to prollt by the
warnings. Instead of getting snooping ma
chinery suitable for all departments of the
work , the chairman says the company has
gene on using llttlo two-horso sweepers
which nro of value only on the smootth
asphalt pa\omcnt , and which are In no way
fitted for work on the other kinds of pave
monts.
The chnlnnan added that ho was thoroughly
tlrod of tlio company's ' methods.
Mr. Squires , the agent for the asphalt com
pany , was spoken to regarding tuo matter
and said :
"I expect the chairman will object to allow
ing our estimates , but why , I cannot say. As
to our machinery , It is the same as they use
In New York , Chicago and most of the ether
' largo cities. 1 1 wo are not doing the work , I
cannot sco why the city engineer does not
object and lof use to approve our estimates ,
"Thoro nro many strocts that wo h nvo
swept where wo have lost money , asrradcrs
are ut work on adjoining streets and haul the
dirt over the paved streots.seatteriHg . the dirt
until It is several inches deep.
"Tho trouble Is , Mr. Birkhauser is not a
radical man , nnd If ho sees n llttlo dirt ho
8 Ics Into a rage and denounces 1110 as a rascal
who Is attempting to rob the city. "
Engineer Tlllson , speaking iipoa the sub
ject , said :
" 1 have visited a number of cities this sum-
mornnd I find that tlio work being done hero
will compare favorably with any that I have
"My inspector visits every street as soon
03 It h swept , and It the work Is
% not performed in n satisfactory man
ner lie reports to tno nnd
I at once Inform Mr. Squires that the
street must bo roswcnt. In no case haa ho
refused to obey their Instructions when they
have been eivcn.
"Kegurdhifc the machinery ho Is using , It
Is thci same kind as they are using In other
cities and there they flud no fault wltb. the
work.
"Mr. Blrknnuscr hours a great many com
plaints , bat bo never reports them to mo as
ho should , but waits until the board convenes
whoiiho protests to the allowing of the esti
mates. "

JohnW. Thompson , a colored citizen of
Chad ron , was arrested and tried before the
United States commissioner ut Chadron on
the chnrgo of selling liquor to Indians. Ho
was found guilty and bound over to the next
term of court In the svtm of $300 , In default of
which ho was lodged in the Douglas county
Jail.Tho
The testimony showed that Thompson was
in the habit of acting as middleman for tbo
noble red man nnd chnrped him $1 for a half
pint of vile whisky which Thompson had
purchased at a saloon for U3 cents.
Sadie Carter , also of Chadron , was arrested

Judge Hclsloy rondercil his decision In the
case of State vs "Webster et al. ' .This Is , more
propoily speaking , the case of Pitch vs The
OMcersof the Commercial Directory com
pany , wherein the prosecuting witness com
plains bccauso the defendants tried to collect
what , was designated n bad bill.
The defendants sent the complainant a let
ter requesting him to cithcrpay the bill or a
part of it or inako some arrangements for
paying the whole or a part of it , stating
further that unless ho showed borne disposi
tion to nay It they would bo compelled to ad
vertise his account nnd sell it at uublio auc
tion to the highest bidder.
The cliai-go was sending threatening let
ters through the mall nnd attempting to
extort money. The court held that under tbo
statutes of Nebraska the letter could not bo
construed as threatening , and that tbo id-
leged "attempt to extort money" was noinoro
than n legitimate endeavor to collect what
was due on a justly incurred dolit. Ilo there
fore discharged the defendant.
This cnso attracted a great deal of atten
tion from the retail merchants , who desired
to know whether or not the law would Inter
fere between thcmutidnon-payiugcustomers.
The many remarkable cures of catarrh ef
fected by tlio use of Ayor's Sarsapurilla Is
conclusive proof that this loathsome and dan-
'gorous disease is ono of the blood , only need

to thoroughly eradicate It

I1C OP1DXED THR I TTER.
Ami for This Ho Mttst Answer in , the
CoUrt-j ,
District Attorney Baker has gene to Bon-
kleman to prosecute nn interesting case of
violation of the postal laws.
John A. Andrews , the editor of the demo
cratic paper published at Bciikloman , is the
defendant , and Charles II. Israel , tlio editor
of the republican piprsr , the complaining
witness.
According to the statement of the latter , as
furnished the district attorney , ho mailed to
the land oftlco nt McCoolc a statement of pub
lication of several land notices and a bill , the
statement being certified to by the county
Judge In Benkloman.
During the absence of the postmaster , and
while his fourteen-year-old daughter was in
the ofllco , Andrews called and asked for the
letter , saying ho had written it , and wished
to make some corrections in it , etc. The
young lady allowed him totaketha lettorand.
open It. wherever thn name of the republi
can paper occurred , ho erased it and inserted
the name of his own sheet. jVftertvards he
discovered that the bill for printing the no
tices had been paid , and lie took the letter to
the county Judge andrcquostedhim to change
It again , so that tbo handwriting1 would be
similar to the rest of the letter. This the
county judge refused to do , and Andrews
made the changes himself and enclosed the
letter in another envelope.
His trick was discovered , nnd Israel says
that Andrews threatened him with severe
punishment if ho attempted to push the mat
ter. As Andrews Is a large , strong man ,
while Israel is of slight bullcl , the latter bo-
ciuiio alarmed and invoked the protection of
the law.
