IIo Contra Out Alirnit of the Coinml -
MOIIITH In Tliolr l-M lif.
YestercM ) the county commissioner * put
their ho.id together nntl declared off the
wiir that has existed over the ro-wrilloR Of
the numerical Indices.
This is a case that has a history. The
books lu question have become dclnpldatcd
from constant use. Tnoy were wrlttuu in
IbTC , nnd on Account of tnoir dolapldatod
condition a couple of months nto ; KcKhtcr
McRcntli Hindu iippllrullon to the com
missioners , askltiK ttiul two of thn
hooks ho rewritten. The request was
( ranted , but the commissioners em
ployed their own men to do the
woric. TliM was contrary to McKeath'a
wishes , ho holding that lie Is responsible for
the hooks , and for this reason should ho ul-
lowed to mnpioy the men to do the work.
The commissioners saw tilings in a different
llf.'lit. Hltiro that tlino there lias hecii n run-
Utij ? light until MoKoatli tliro.itoned nn In
junction to prevent the commissioners' mon
from tmmlllng the records.
Hut the matter Is nil settled no v. Tliero
was a resolution Introduced. Its parent was
Chairman O'Keuffo. ' It sot forth all of the
former dlfllcultles and states that Megcntu
U nctiiiK contrary to ( 'ood Kovornmont in this ,
that ho Is trying to hinder , delay and
piovent tlio commissioners In the discharge
of their duties ; that ho hns tried to deceive
the board nnd has done many other things
titibocomltiK' n county olllclal high up In mi-
thoiltv. In viuw of all this , the resolution
provliics that the two mnn shall Do dis
charged and that nn expert hookhlndor ho
employed to robmd the two books.
The other members said nothing should ho
stricken out or suppressed.
The resolution was adopted. Messrs.
O'lCcclTo. ' Van Camp and Timmo voting nye ,
and IJcrlin no.
After the llttlo pleasantry nttending the
dlicusslon had suoslded the board went on
with the regular business of the session.
The committee on charity was instructed
to investigate the acts of the olllcers of the
Homo for the Friendless at Lincoln. Some
titno nj-o a h.ibo was found on the steps of the
Guilds' hospital. The Infant was talten to
the county poor farm , but as there arc no
provisions for taking cnro of babes nt that
Institution , application was matio for the
little one's ' admission to thu Lincoln institu
tion. A correspondence was entered into ,
but the oftlcorn , without giving any reasons ,
reported Unit there la no room for people
from Omaha.
Owlnir to the fact that Omaha and Douglas
county pays n largo portion of the expense of
keeping up the state Institution , the commis
sioners propose to know why Douglas county
people have no rights.
1 ho resolution to allow the waterworks
company to extend its mains on South Thir
teenth street , between Omaha and South
Omaha , was adopted , The company will uo
compelled to leave the street in a passabl' )
condition.
The resignation of Ed Loader , constnblo of
Douglas product , was presented , with a com
munication asking that John II. Clapp bo
appointed to fill the vacancy. The matter
was referred to tlio committee on judiciary.
Foi laying the concrete floor In the county
lull , Ford & Huuhcs were the lowest bidders.
They offered to do the work for lb % cents
per square foot.
The committee on finnnro could not agree
on the hills presented by the several asses
sors. Mr. Timmo of the committee stated that ,
the payment of the bills Involves a point of
law. The ulllsvero referred to the "commit
tee on Judiciary.
The board will hold another session Friday
afternoon.

Captain l.tnvlH and Ills Hackery Have
Illf * Plans In View.
Captain Sam Lewis of IMttsburg , Pa. , who
for a month or moro has boon prospecting In
the oil district west of the city , returns to
his homo today , hut ho will not remain long.
IIo goes for the purpose of buying tools and
inacliinory. Ho will return to Omaha in
about four weeks , after which the company
in which ho is a heavy stockholder will com
mence. drilling.
Captain Lewis said yesterday : "I am no
stranger In this country , as I wa hero before
there was an Omaha. In 1S.11 I was captain
of a steamer that made regular trips between
St , Louis and Fort Honton. I continued in
that business until ItiO.'t , after which 1 quit
the river nnd since that ttmo have boon
actively engaged lit the oil districts of Pcnn-
nylvnuin , both as a prospector and n pro
ducer.
"Last winter I came to Omahn , understand
ing that there were Indications of oil. I
nt once commenced looking around
nnd soon became convinced that ono of the
richest oil Holds of the country Is tributary
to Omaha. The Indications are the Dost thai
1 havn ever seen and there is nn doubt but
paying wells will Do struck before the end of
the present year.
"homo time ago a well was put down , hut it
Is claimed this was without results. I know
bo tier than this , for 1 &aw enough to con
vince mo.
"The gontlomcn who put down thai well
struck n good How flow enough so that the
oil came to the surface and spread out over
the trend. They used stovepipe Iron for
casing , which was not worth anything.
This burst and forced the oil back into the
rock , and the work stopped.
"Our company will pursue a different plan.
U'o shall use the latest Improved machinery.
Wo will use cast Iron for casing and I am
confident now tnat before wo get through wo
will strike a 'spoutur.1 "
To show that this company has faith In the
find , the gentlemen who are attho enterprise
lisve taken looses on 1,500 acres ot land and
nro now busily engaged In securing other
largo tracts.
The now oil fields are along the 1'apllllon
valley , two miles from Westllold station and
Just west of the now fair grounds.
Timely Ailvlco.
Now Is the time to provide yourself and
family with n reliable remedy for bowel com-
plaints. It U almost curtain to bo needed ,
and no family can afford to bo without It. It
costs but n trllle and may bo the means of
saving much suffering. If not lifo. There are
many different remedies In use , but Cham
berlain's colic , cholera and diarrhoea remedy
Is undoubtedly the best. U5 and 50 cent hot-

' nnd Frank White , that loft Omaha ton day *
I ngo for the purpose of Investigating thu grain
i exchanges of the country returned Mon
day night.
| The delegation first visited Minneapolis ,
' stayed there one day , wont over to St. Paul ,
1
thence to Duluth nnd from there lo Chicago ,
Afterword the gcntloraon wont to St. Louis
and Kansas City.
| Mr. Nnson yesterday , in speaking of the
trip , said s "Wo saw enough to convince us
I that Omiha can bo made a gr.iln market
equal to iny In the country , \vltn the oxeop-
I tlon of Chicago.
"At Minneapolis and St. Paul wo fnmll
i Inrbcd ourselves with the manner
of Inspecting and grading grain.
| At Duluth wo thoroughly investi
gated thu elevator system , and In this con
nection I want to sav that IJuluth is n great
grain city. It has nn elevator capacity of
ai.000,000 bushels , The exchange is nn ac
tive ono and It hns been ono of the principal
factors in the upbuilding of the cltv.
"At Chicago we- went upon tlio floor of the
board of trade and were shown the complete
workings of thu exchange. At St. Louis and
ICnnsns City wo made a close inspection of
the exchanges nnd the plan of opor.ition.
"Wo have seemed tno rules and regulations
and on July Ki will make a complete report
tn the board.
"With the Information that wo now have ,
wo shall nt once begin active operations nnd
will have the exchange ready for business not
later than August 1.
"Our Ide.i now is to make it n general ex
change. Wo expect to deal In wheat , corn ,
oats , liny and all farm produce. This will
establish such a market that If n far.nor has
n carload of the products of his farm , ho can
sell without chasing all over the town to find
a buyer.
"Kegardlng the trip , wo were entertained
In n royal manner. At every point wo were
shown n ficiit amount of courtesy nnd fur
nished with n great deal of information. "
