Tim Ur.r.J - In the Issue of July lit your cor
respondent from this place makes some very
sweeping assertions concerning the expert
investigation of our county records , nnd as
his report nt least intimates that nil were
short In their accounts I ask you , In Justice
to myself , to publish the following , which Is
n part of Mr. Hrugh's report to the county
commissioners :
"I am Klacl to state that the treasurer's ac
counts have been correctly kept. A small
difference In our fees account for the year
Ib&S of f IS.IO to the county funds and $ I5.IB
to the Insnno fund being overcharged , and
nn error in charging warrants to the county
general fund nnd county road fund would
onumcruto the difference in our accounts ,
which errors ho bus corrected , making the
balances upon his bonks January I , ISIU
correspond with inv balances , as per folio i >
In my report. " W. F. Ci.nvrM.r.ii ,
Treasurer Urown county , Nebraska.
In connection with the above article 1 beg
Icnvo to add that Export Hrugh's report was
not received under locked doors ns reported
by your correspondent from this place. It is
n fuel nevertheless that the commissioners'
door was closed tlurinir the time of the read
ing of the report by Mr. Ilrugh. There has
been no cnah turned over by any ofllcer to
Btimro | up their shortage. I think the expert
will bear out the above statement concerning
the cash part of the transaction. 1 will ad
mit that all the ollicers were given until July
BO to mnko good the several amounts they
were short or show cause.

Effects of the Amondnnnt ! Mvla tail
Spring to the Liquor Law.
CHANGES AFFECT THE WHOLE STATE ,
Now Itcgtilntlons Coitocriilitff tlic Slfj-
natures lo IVtlMonn " Two Mile"
SaloonlMtH HIiiHt Proouro
tO Suit.
At the Inst legislature , the Slocumb liquor
law was called up for consideration and
amended In two places.
One of the amendments provides Hint
snloonkcepers In the "two-mile limit"
around Onmha shall pay an annual license Of
$500.
$500.Tho
The other Is much moro sweeping. It
covers every precinct In the state , outsldo of
Incorporated cities and villages. It provides
that , hereafter , the petition of the liquor
seller for a license shall bo signed by a ma
jority , Instead of thirty of the resident
freeholders of the precinct. This require
ment will undouotcdly drive a largo number
of saloonkeepers out of ttia business. In
some sections of the state , If insisted upon , it
will have the elToct of prohibition. Under
the original law saloonkeepers experienced
a great deal of trouble In securing on their
petitions the jiumos of thirty resident free
holders , but that trouble will bo
greatly Increased now that they must
obtain the names of moro than
half the freeholders of their precinct.
The amendment does not affect saloon man
now in business , btit must bo en forced at the
commencement of the next license year , nnd
Its enforcement will devolve upon the com
missioners of the county. Hut few people
know when the bill , in the Inttor days of the
legislature , was rushed through that It had
ucen changed In this respect. Neither did
the fact become known to the ofllcmls of the
county until Clerk G'Mnlloy ' secured a cer-
tllied copy of the document from the secre
tary of state. This copy ho has tiled with
Iho county commissioners , who in turn have
referred it to their committee on judiciary.
What , the Noiv Provision Hcails.
With respect to the people who may desire
this year to go into the liquor business in
country precincts , the law Is to bo enforced
nnd It will bo necessary for Iho county ofll
cmls therefore to acquaint themselves with
the provisions of the act , which roads as fol
lows :
He It enacted b.v the legislature of the state
of Ni'brus'.iit.
Section 1. That section onn (1) ( ) of chapter
lift v ( M ) or the fomplled statutes of Nebraska
of 1S 7 be anil the sumo Is hereby amended HO
as to reud ns follows :
St'ctlmi I. The county board of each county
may grant license for the sile : of mult , spirit
uous und vliuius liquors. If deumed expedi
ent , upon thn uppliculloii by u pntltlon of a
majority of the resident freeholders of the
town , it the county N under township or-
Kuul/.utlon , und If not under township orjiun-
l7.ttlon : , then a majority of the resident
freeholders of tlio precinct. wln < re the sulo of
such liquor Is proposed to tuko nl.'ui , ' , settiiri
forth I hut Urn applicant Is a man of respect
able character and standing und u resident of
this stute , and pruylni : that llcrnsr may Issue
to him ; such application to be filed In the
olllco of the couuly cleric and U | > . .n payment.
Into the co.mty treasury of such sum as the
hoard 'nav require , not less Hum live hundred
dolluis ( f.VW ) for uufh liceiibo and I he compli
ance with the provisions of this act.
Provided , sui'h board shall not have power
to Issiio any license for the sale of any liquors
in any city or Incorporated villaKoor within
two miles of the same :
Provided , In coiuules bavlne 151,010 Inliubl-
tunts , the county commissioners may also
Iss'iio license within two miles of nny city In
suld count y.
Se > 'tl < m 'J. Sout'tm I , chapter t. > . of compiled
statutes ot 1 S7 Is hereby repealed.
The amendment in Its effect will bo a sur
prise oven to those who favored it , and it is
not known to n certainty by whom it was
made. Under tbo old law , requiring thirty
signatures , it was Impossible for some of the
sparsely settled precincts to secure a saloon
license at all , because they did not have that
number of resident freeholders. Among
those precincts was Clontarf , in this county.
The majority amendment , therefore , suited
them , but it will have n contrary effect upon
the moro thickly settled precincts.
Two-Mile Ijiinlt Saloons.
The second amendment embraced in the
latter of the two provisos above printed was
agitated by Douglas county people. It was
incorporated Into a bill introduced in the
house by Mr. George Stornsdorff and in the
senate by Mr. Switzlcr.
The object was to compel men , who , for
years , had been selling liquor v.'lthin two
miles of this city to pay something for the
"
privilege. This" was sought because these
mpn enjoyed the protection of tl > o
county as did other denlors In llouor ;
also in justice to city saloonkeepers who paid
? l.OOO yenrly Into the city treasury mid
whoso saloons were perhaps not more than
llfty feet distant from those of men who paid
nothing to either city or county ; also , bo-
cuuso this luck of control led to thu estab
lishment of demoralizing grogcerio.s which
were a source of annoyance and scandal to
law abiding communities.
The primary Intention of ttio Sloctimb laxv
was that within the two-mile limit of cities
and villages no liquor nt nil could or should
bo sold. This was virtual prohibition so far
as that territory was concerned. In this re
spect In almost every part of the state pro
hibition docs obtain. When , therefore , Sen
ator SwiUler spoke in favor of blotting out
thO limit referred to , ho was opposed by the
country members. They claimed tbat it
would deprive their localities of tbo im
munity they now enjoyed from objectionable
resorts. Ilo accordingly tacked on tbo second
end proviso confining the operation of the
law to counties having IfiO.OOO inhabitants In
which respect Its operation is confined to
Douglas county.
This bill did not have an emergency clause.
Under the constitution , it could not , there
fore , co Into effect until "threo calendar
months" had elapsed after the adjournment
of the legislature. The session ciimo to nu
end about April 0. According to excellent
lecnl authority , ttio "throe calender months"
expired on the Oth of Ahis month. If such no
the case , the saloonkeepers of the county
within the two-milo limit , are now belling
liquor In violation of law.
The attorney general , however , hold In the
mutter of the warehouse law und appoint
ment of world's fnlr commissioners that
"three calendar months" mount three full
months after the month In which the legis
lature adjourned. If this is the correct man
ner of interpreting the statute the law cun-
not bo enforced until tbo end of this month.
How to Gut a IjlctMiHO.
UiUor the law ns amended the man who
wishes to sell liquors in any part of Douglas
not Included In cltios nnd incorporated vil
lages , must take out a license for which , for
ono year , ho must pay $ .VM ) . He must call at
the olllco of the county clerk In Omaha ,
where ho will bo given a blank petition , to
which he must secure the signatures of a
majority of the free holders In the precinct
in which bo expects to vend his liquors.
These petitions now are made to accommo
date the signatures of only thirty names , but
under the present law they must bo made
large enough to nccorumoda'.o the names of a
majority of the resident freeholders in each
precinct. This tuct has pot boon attended
to by the commissioners , and Indeed it is be
lieved , as has been intimated , tins escaped
intention throughout the state.
This petition sots forth thnt the petitioner
Is n resident of the state , of rcspectubu
chnrncter nnd a proper person to whom to
issue u license to sell liquors. Attached U a
blank bond for the signatures of three bonds
men In the sum of Ki.OOO. These guarantee
that the petitioner shall not violate any of
the provisions of the law regarding the sulo
of liquors , and that ho will
pay nit tines nnd forfeitures which
may bo adjudged against mm.
This bond must bo signed in thu presence
of u number of witnesses. On another page
nru several blanks which must bo tilled out
by the county treasurer und clurK ami county
commissioners.
J'hus far , only thrco saloonkeepers Ic the
two-mile limit have m.ide application for
these blanks. They were riven the.H but
have not yet returned them.
Kii'orcliiK Iho Law.
Commissioner Tim mo wns naked how the
board proposed to make the saloonkeepers In
question take out their licenses , and replied :
"Tho county commissioners hisvo done
nothing to apprise the saloonKcopers in the
strip referred to that the latter must
take out a license or else close up.
"Wo have nothing to do , that 1 cun see , ex-
cent to grant the llceiiscxivhon the snloon
men apply for them after complying with the
law with respect to signatures and bonds.
It Is not our duty to go out in the county nnd
11 nil out whether these jpiini have tfot tfiolr
llcensos. If tlioy don't comply with the lr.w ,
It is the duty of the county attorney to prose
cute them. "
Commissioner Dorllti wns Interrogated on
the subject and answoccd-p follows : "Wo
nre golmr to eiiforootnoluw. Wo have done
nothing In thnt respect yet because nobody
has complained against the saloons which nro
run til UK' , because wo haveima nil wo could
do In equalizing nnd because wo did not seek
moro new work. "
On this question Commissioner O'KeclTo
snltl : "I f ono saloonkeeper takes out n license
you may bo sure ho will not allow another
snloon man near him to sell without taking
out n license also. Ho will tlio complaint and
then the snloon man can bo prosecuted. "
County Attorney Mahoney wns told what
Commissioner Tlnnnu had said nnd answered ;
"It Is not my duty to play detective on these
men. I can't ' go down to a Ilv-
cry stable , hire n buggy nnd traverse
the county to look out for violators of this
law. It Is my dutywhen Information is llled
with mo , to make out the complaint nnd pros
ecute thu offender. I cannot make the com
plaint myself and prosecute it. It would bo
unprofessional. These , however , who pay
licenses will , I think , be willing to complain
against these who do not. "
Commissioners O'lveoffo nnd Tlmmo esti
mate that there nro about forty saloon men
In the two mile limit who are selling liquor
without n license. If all of tho.so should
comply with the law It would ndd $ W,000 to
the school fund.
These snioons nro strung nlong the Mili
tary rend , Dotk'O , Farnnm and Thirteenth
streets. In the vicinity of Husor's park , on
Cut-Off island nnd In Florence precinct.
Some of them , of course , will close up nnd
the law will in this respect have the com
mendable effect It has had In tlio city.

This nftornoon nt 'J o'clock there will bo n
meeting of delegates from Ml the Ourman
societies of tlio city for the purpose for mak
ing arrangements for tlio colouration of Gor
man clay , October t , no.xt.
The llwt observation of this festival ,
which commemorates ttio first landing In
this country of Germans , October , HVM ,
took place a ye.ir ago. A magnificent enter-
talnmcnt of vocal and Instrumental music
combined with oratory was given In lOxposlt-
Ion hull. It was liirccly attended by Uer-
mans of all ages and conditions and thoalTair
was pronounced a great success.
At the time , an organization was formed
with a vlow to perpetuating the commemora
tion of the day. Several \\eoks ago tlio
members of this society mot again and elect
ed temporary ollli'crs for the pui'inne of cull
ing a general mooting to perfect arrange
ments for the great festival. Tlio tn'osl'lcnt '
is II. Buseklst , nr.U secretary , J. A.Veselo. .
This call was i.ssucd on Monday nnd has
found us way presumably to all the German
societies in the city.
Homo of these , It Is Known , have elected
delegates , but the name * of the full delegation
will not bo available until after this after
noon's meeting. The delegate * so far known
are as follows :
Concordat GeorgO Helmrod , T. Slnnhold
and G. 10. Ktratman.
Liederkrnnz-Julius Ivriesel , John Uoeseh-
mann and George Schrolbcr.

The other societies which will undoubt
edly bo represented will bo the Turners ,
Schwabenverein , Ariou Ges.uicvurcln ,
Bnlorveroin , Scliwoit/.or gesanitvorcin , Tur
ner vocal quartette , Schiitzcnveroin , Mou-
ncrchor and Cemucthlehkoit. ! !
There is a dilTeronco of opinion as to how
the day should bo celebrated. Sotuo prefer a
picnic , others a piirudo with an address de
livered in the afternoon by a distinguished
orator'from abroad. Others favor only a
night entertainment. Those who fr.vor tlio
idea of a speaker from outsldo mention
the name of Carl Schur/ and say that ho
once promised to como here anu speak if de
sired. A number of lending Germans are
opposed to a street parade , especially so Un
less the procession could comprise a largo
number of societies and bo made both inter
esting and imposing. These are matters ,
howeverupon which the meeting today must
docido.
Tin * Turner.StatiiM. .
Prof. Bonofolil , who , for some months
pas I has had direction of the Omaha turnverein -
vorein , has severed his relation with that
body. Ills successor has not as yet been
elected.
This Is a most important position and as
soon as it becomes known that there is a
vacancy , applications will doubtless be re
ceived from athletes In the east. The verein
will be satislied only with a good , competent
and reliable instructor. It is composed of
excellent material and aims at still greater
proficiency in physical culture.
The younger class of the verein which did
not cuke the lirst. prize at the Fremont fost is
not 'Hcouraged. It claims it unit to work
uiulur discouraging circumstances , as also
that the more successful competitors were
older and moro experienced in thn work.
This award will give outsldo turnverclns
courage to hope for even greater distinction
and thus tend to strengthen nnd perpetuate
the bund. The fest in question has Inspired
the younger vereins with conlldonco , some
thing which they had not experienced before ,
because nearly all of tboni feared that it
would bo useless to turn against Omaha , as
she had achieved so many victories.
The members congratulate the turners of
both Plattsmouth anil Lincoln and hope they
may long display the energy and ability
which characterized them during the last
competition. Hut the outside towns must
work for their laurels next year.
Tlio baiiKorfcst.
Owing to n variety of clrcumstnncns it has
been deemed advisable to defer the proposed
fest of the Nebraska Sangcrbund until the
inttor part of August or the middle of Sep
tember. There will then take place In this
city a grand sanger picnic rather than u fest ,
in which , however , many of tlio leading
towns of the state will bo represented.
Among them will bo Columbus , Hastings ,
Lincoln , 1'lattsmouth , Fremont , U'ahoo ,
Grand Island and Scrlbnor.
The gathering will occupy one day , Sun
day , the delegates returning homo on Mou-
day. ,
An attempt will then bo made to make ar
rangements fora state sangerfest to bo held
the lollowing year.
The societies under whoso auspices the pic
nic will bo given are tlio Lied'orkranz and
the Schweitzer gosangveroin. All the other
singing societies of the city , however , will
aid in making the visit of their brother
singers as pleasant as possible.

The national convention of Plitttdoutschor
societies will meet in Denver July III , and
among the delegates will bo those from
Omaha whoso names have already appeared
In I'IIB BKK.
After the eloso of the convention tlio Omaha
PluttdeuUchors will hold a great voiles fest
at Huser's park. These fests are of annual
occurrence. Tnoy-afford old and young an
opportunity ot enjoying the open air of the
country and engaging In the pleasures and
games peculiar to fatherland which cannot
bo participated in tlio city. A number of
tne.se games nro unknown among Americans.
Thov are peculiarly of low Gorman origin and
are heartily enjoyed by old and young of
Doth soxcs , The verein has designed a iiuin
ber of beautiful prizes which will bo awarded
to the successtul contestants.
Picnics.
Every Gorman society of this city makes u
specialty of its annua'l ulcnlc. while some
hie themselves to neighboring groves
and parks several times during the summer
season. The last week has witnessed a num
ber of these gatherings , all of which were
productive of both rest and enjoyment. The
Concordla gave a most successful basket pic
nic at Pries' lake on Sunday last , and on the
same day. In the lualy section at the corner
of Eighth und Haneroft streets , the Lieder-
Krann passed the hours with mirth and song ,
the latter being rendered under the direction
of Prof. Dworzak. The Hitter vernin also
entertained its friends and members on the
same day In Hoseman's park. Today
GemuoUiliehkoll is picmclng at Surpy Mills.

Tlio Concordla Singing society Is one of the
few organizations of tub city whoso history
extends back alinoit to the early days of
Omaha. It has maintained an uninterrupted
existence tor twenty-three years. It Is as
proud of Its antiquity as It Is of Its musical
and social successor which it has achieved
duriiiK tho-io years. It Is now preparing to
puss its twenty-third milestone , wnieh It will
reach on September "U of this year. This
event it will celebrate with a grand Jubilea
and concert , In which some most beautiful
new music , which Is now being rohenrbcd
under thn direction of Prof. Peterson , will
bo muttered. The members of the ( 'oncordlu
propose making this anniversary the most
memorable in their career.

Up to July 1 tlio total number ot manu
facturers of mnplo sugar who had applied
for tl.o license which would entitle them to a
bounty next spring was something under
four thousand. Contrary toovpoctattmis tlW
into of New York , Wisconsin , Ohio and
Michigan , which noM tb Vermont , are the
principal mnplo sugar producing states , nro
very poorly represented among those who
claim the bounty.
Ail farmers who are to receive the pro.n *
lums on sugar produced next season have
mndo application , but U Is believed that
thousands are barred because of a misunder
standing of the law.
Under tlio sugar bounty clause of the
McKlnloy art , It is held that applications
iimsl be filed on the "growing crop" by July
I , preceding the production of the sugar.
Tills construction , therefore , bars all who
failed to apply before the beginning of the
current month , oven though It will bi > March
next before the sap will run.
Seven beet sugar manufacturers hao taken
tlio iHvcssnry stops to secure the bounty and
the sugar crop from this sourceIs estimated
at nearly thirty million pounds , upon which
bounties to the amount of JtitHI.DlKi will bo
piid. : Nebraska and Calilornia will get the
