The county and federal authorities held n
meeting yesterday afternoon and discussed
the selection of n place for the execution of
Dixon. It was conceded that the hanging
could not tnko place on the court house
square If the commlsiloncrs objected. It
was also decided that Port Omaha would
not do , as the man had been condemned In
iho state courts and could not bo legally
hanged on a military reservation. The
advisability of having the execution tuko
place on the postolllco square , block bil , was
discussed. The federal olhcials considered
the matter favorably and will finally decide
\jpon It today.
Late Saturday nlcht a wooden box sotno
eighteen inches square was spirited Into the
county Jail by ono of Slaughter's men , and
\vhon opened it was found to contain a flr.o
liomp rope , twenty foot long and five-eighths
of nn Inch In diameter. At ono end there Is
the regulation hangman's nooso. The opinion
nrevalls that this rope is Intended to help
llxoii on hU trip to the hereafter.
Dltnn Piirlnc Well.
In nddllion to this , Marshal Slaughter
vestorday Usucd nn order to Sheriff Hen
iiott Instructing him to furnish Dixou
with anything ho wanted in the line
of eatables and ebarno the \ponso
to Undo Sam. Utxon was highly pleased
\\ben Jailor Miller culled on him yesterday
morning iii.l told lilm to inuko out Ills order
for dinner. Ho Bald that ho could not under
stand why Slaughter had opened his heart ,
M horp'oforo laughter's orders had been
for blthply Ml Iiiro.
After thinking matters over for a few mo
ments Dlxon icinarkcd that as ho had but
four moro dinners to cat ho might us well
11V9 upon tlio fat of iho land ,
anil theruupon ordered veal cutlets brooded ,
fried oystol's , eggs over , nlbofoT sponge cake
nnd a ( iuart of coffee.
When tlio dinner was served ho nto with n
hearty relish , roinarklng that it was the
bust inonl that ho had oalcn In llvo year. ; .
In order to remain In the gooa sracos of
the County commissioners , Slaughter must
declare himself before many moro hours
ulapso anil stmo whether or not he Intends
tn hang Dlxon on tha court house grounds.
Tlio commissioners arc nil opposed to the
hanging taking place there , but rather lhan
cross swords with the United Stales govern
ment they will lot It go on , provid
ing Slaughter will .station u row of guards
nround the court hnuyj srjunro to keen tlio
morbid sightseers off the pi-ass. If Ihls Is
not done , there seems to bo n fooling that
Slaughter will bo informed that ho imm kill

' At the session of the Hoard of County Com
missioners held yesterday afternoon iho mem
bers look Iho bull by Iho horns and ofllvially
declared against the lianglncof Dlxon on
the court house grounds next Friday.
The following leaolutlon was introduced
by Majcr Paddock and unanimously adopted :

' United Suites Prosecuting Altornoy Baker
was just leaving his olllco at iho noon hour
when Major Paddock rushed up and ex
claimed with much earnestness , "Hold on
u minute , ! want IOBCC you , " and ntonco began
to toll why the countv commissioners
had decided not to allow the execution to
take pluce on the court house grounds next
1'Yidny. Ho was lolling nboutlho dreadful
cfTcct'it would huvo on gcncrallons yet un
born , when Major Furay , who win also a
listener , broke In with un ortor of Iho
use of his 100 ncro farm for ino
purpose of tarrying out Iho court's decree ,
nnd remarking that justice should not bo in
terfered with on account of senile sentiment.
i Mr. liiikcr subsequently staled that the
commissioners undoubtedly had iho
right lo decide as they had
Uono roaraitiK the court house
grounds , poor farm and any other uropertv
ovrr which they bad exclusive control , but
that they did not own the earth , thanks to a
Ulvlno Providence , just laws nnd ijopulnr
sentiment. Ho said that they had no con
trol whatever over the balance of the
county so far ns carrying out the
imposed sentence. Is concerned and their
vrotosis would amount IP nothing.
Ho listened patiently to the suggestion ol
Mnor ) Paddock that ho tojograph Presldci.t
Harrison asking for a postponement of Iho
execution , nnd then politely declined to do
anything of the kind.
The commissioners also waited on General
IlrooUo and asked him to Interfere" , but ho
declared that ho know nothing about the
matter and furthermore didn't want to. Ho
Bald that it was entirely out of his jurisdic
tion.

Manufacturers are commenting on tbo rush
of business which Is forcing them into In-
croasluc the capacity ot tholr plants and en
larging their working force. As there Is no
other apparent cause they are giving the
credit to the home patronage movement ,
A writer In the United States Investor as-
crts that there Is a bright future before the
manufacturers of paving brick. Tbo rich
neil of the west , so productlveof corn , isulso
unrivaled In the production of mud. Hence
comes the demand for bettor roads aud
troots and ns iho country develops this de
mand will bo over on the Increase. At tiiu
present lime there appears to be good rea
son for believing that brick U rapidly coin-
Inslu public favor aud that it is the coming
pavement , Nebraska brick men must not
fail to take navuniago of the opportunities
presented to them and inako Nebraska one ol
the greatest If not the greatest paving brick
manufacturing states lu the union.
Accoraliie to a recent census bulletin giv
ing ttnllstlcs of manufacture tn St. Louis
there are in that city 0,1-IS manufacturing

Why Is It that so mnnv rotnll dealers In'.tno
city send out poods of foreign make even to
people who n K for somfiltilntr of Nebraska
manufacture ! Almost cvory day well known
cltlrcns coraplntn that they ordoroj certain
nrtlclo ! ) from rotnll merchants , especially re
questing that the articles bo of Nebraska
manufacture , and that the order would bo
filled , but they would discover later that the
poods WCTO not of Nebraska manufacture.
The manufacturers' association ought to tnlto
notice of these cases and SK nn explanation
of the matter from the dealers.
Manufacturers in the stnto should maKe
greater cfforls to so mnrK tholr Roods that
they can bo Identified readily by the pur
chasers.
A prominent citizen recently asked nt a
dry goods house in the city for Oniahix niado
pcnrl buttons and was shown only two cards
of very poorly tnadu buttons. Tuoy were
chipped on the oilees and \voro evidently
culls. In vlow of the fact that the pearl but
tons mndo In Oirmhn nro pronounced by the
Jobbers to bo equal In every respect to the
Imported buttons It scorns very strange that
nn Omaha liouso should iittompt to discredit
nn Itulustiy now to the city , by nny sui-ti
method. The dry poods uouio in question
lias frequently complained about the habit of
seine ( Jinnha | > co.lo | in sending out of the cltv
for their dry Roods , arguing that the local
drv pooils bouses should bo patronised.
iho Omaha peoil button manufacturers
have the opportunity of bulldliiK up the
llnost maiiufauturing business In the city ,
but they cannot unless they wiiko up. While
nearly oil the space for tlio Juno exposition
has been taken , neither buiton factory has
engaged snaco. They can miiko an exhibit
with loss expense than most any other manu
facturer in the city , and U would do thorn an
Incalculable amount af good. Kvury lady
visiting Iho cxnosltlon and seeing pearl but
tons made would DO a purchaser of Omaha
buttons from that tlmo on.
At the present thcro nro twelve concerns
engaged In the manufacture of pearl buttons
In Newark , N. J , employing nil the way
from twenty hand * to 100 ojch. Wages of
tbo button turncts range from f IS to S23 par
WCCK , and boys and plrls employed in finish
ing the poods uro paid from ? li to $10 per
\\oek. Over ( WO persons nreobtnlnlnir n llvo-
hhood In t la city of N'ow.M'ir , N. J. from this
industry. The satr.o or similar results have
been suc.iircd in other cities of the United
States. 1'rovldcDco , U.I. , SpringfieldMass. ,
Philadelphia , Now York , Urooklvn , Chicago
mid several other cities now have their fac
tories for the ninnufacturo of peail buttons ,
furnishing work for upward of fi.OOO people
nt wngcs on which they can llvo decently
and in comfort.
The Kearney Hub says : Manufacturers of
Cearnoydo not appear to appreciate the value
and importance of perfecting iho organiza-
ion winch will give them a closer connection
ttitui tbo Manufacturers dual Consumers
association ol NpbriMta. The Hub has on
several occasion's1 endeavored to outline the
ilan and scope o.f the association find jo 1m-
truss upon the tlunufaCtiil'wia i. tins city iuu
mportanco of adopting this system of co-
opcraUon and mutual protection. It simply
ncans that with the solid backing of n loyal
lomo support , coupled with the inlluenco
and prestige of the state association , nearly
every ono of our manufacturers would bo
iblo to expand his business and place it on a
better footing than has ever before been pos
sible. The plan of this association goes so
far that it , organizes the consumers into n
separate branch and educates them to nslc
[ or and demand the hotnp manufactured
iroduct ip preference to the foreign , with
ho result tnftt the public Is soon disabused
of the old notion that a superior artlolo can
10 procured away from home ,
The Kearney public should not only ho
educated to usk for Kearney canned goods ,
icarnoy vinegar and pickles , Kearney oat-
ueal and Kearney flour , iCoarnoy baking
wwdcr and flavoring extracts , Kearney
'ounuiy and machine work , Kearney print-
ng and blank books , Kearney cigars , cof
fees , etc. , otc.j but to Insist next on having
poods manuitictured In Iho 'state say
Dmaha soaps , South Omaha moatsNcoraska
City cereals , Fremont twine , etc. In this
manner wo build up each other , wo husband
our resources , and enrich the whole stato.
[ Cearnoy manufacturers are so scattered
that it is nuparently unnDlo to bring them
together even though their own interests nro
nt stake. But they ought to do It , and right
away at that , so as to bo prepared to toke
part in Iho homo industry exhibit that will
bo made in Omaha in Juno.
Allen Format ! in the Denver News says
tub tenement uouso clear evil , though fre
quently attacked , has never been stomped
out. Owners ot small factories send out
"picco work" to the dwcllors of the reuklng
tenements , and the goods are boxed and la
beled as the output of a regular factory. The
system pursued is worthy ot notice , and bas
been brought again before the public
through the work of the physicians in charge
ot the plague stricken section. In these
ercat tenements on the cast side of town
families ot poor Russian Jews are hud
dled like bees in a hive. It Is no unfrcqucut
thing for a family of tivo or six to occupy
ono room. Proper sanitation is impossible ,
nnu it is nraonc poor creatures like these ,
badly nourished , iusufllciontly dottioJ and
never washed , that an epidemic like typhus
llnds its victims. A bundle of 1X ( ) pounds of
leaf tobacco Is furnished by the "manufac
turer , " and for this the ciearmaker Is
obliged to return 105 pounds of cigars.
The moisture required for rolllntr the
loaf Is supposed to make up the extra
flvo pounds. Ho is paid a few
dollars a thousand for his work of making
the cigars , but if ho can turn In 120 or liiO
pounds of clirars for his 100 pounds of to
bacco ho Is paid extra , and in asked no ques
tions as to ivncro the tobacco comes from.
Hero Is the only source of prolit , and thu
wily Hussion is not slow to avail himself of
It. Cigar stumps are gathered from the gutters -
tors and the cuspidors of thu saloons , aio
taken to the tenement bouses , carefully un
rolled and used-for "Jlhors. " It has devel
oped into a rcirular Industry , and in the cray
of the morning you will sea squalid inch
sweeping our bar rooms and cleaning the
spittoons. It Is the duty of the bartender on
"early watch , " as it is called , to clean out
the place , but ho linds dozens of these hunt
ers after stumps who are willing and anx
ious to sweep out the bar rooms for the
stumps which are lying on the floor , and to
wash out the cuspidors for the partly smoked
cigars which lloat In them. The floor and
cusuldors of a fairly popular bar room will
often yield a couple of pounds of stumps and
about forty pounds of this vile "filler" can bo
used to every 100 pounds ol tobacco.
W. A , Hutchings of Pooria.Ml , has agreed
to erect an Ice factory at Dos Moines to cost
foO.OOO , provided 'ho can bo assured of
patronage. Ho agrees to deliver leo at .Tie
per 100 pounds , or .10 cents per week , daily
deliveries of ilftccn pounds. The plant will
bo ready by Juno 1 If erected.
A traveling man is the authority for the
statement that a committee representing the
trnvollnu men who "Sunday" at Hastings
called upon the business men of that city and
made this threat. "Thoronroseventy travel
ing men living In Hastings and unless you
lot upon the homo patronage movement wo
will every ono of u move out. " The same
traveling man also declares that similar pres
sure was brought to bear In Kearney , aim
that that Is the reason for the lack of en
thusiasm on the homo patrouago question In
that city. The traveling men representing
houses outside of Nebraska are lighting the
movement and are claiming that It will drlvo
them out of the slnto , anil that hotels and
towns will Jose thofr patronage. It will not
drive them out of the state ; It will glvo them
the opportunity of obtaining situations with
ivebrasUa houses. The business of the state
can support a certain number of traveling
men and It can bo no detriment If thosu
traveling men nro employed by Nebraska

PLEA OF THE UNION PACIFIC

I'ruin tlio I.mill. . , ,
The Union Pacific has at last shown Its
hnnd In the controversy regarding the own
ership ot the north bottoms real cstnto that
was recently fenced In by the city under a
slight protest from the railway company.
That corporation has now Jumped Into the
federal court with Us grievance.
It will bo ramembor"l that the compiyiy
made no move to prevent the city from fenc
ing in the property In dispute , but waited
until the return of Judgu IJur.dy from
his Florida trip , whereupon General Solici
tor Thurston. by his next host f-lonit , As
sistant Solicitor Kclloy , tiled a petition in
the Unlti-d State * circuit court setting forth
the alleged ownership of the land by the
railway company and the clt.v's attempt to
take posses < ! on of it , and praying for tha
Issuance of nn injunction to not only restrain
the city irom Interfering with the company
In Its use of the property but to also to-
strain the municipality from lu any way
Interfering with the removal of any obstruc
tions now there or horcnftcr to bo placed
there notably the fence erected by the cltv.
Tbo Injunction was granted by Judge Uundy
us desired ami tbo restraining order issued.
c Tbo bond was fixed at ? 2UUU , and this was
furnished SnturJay.
The city of Omaha , CJcorgo P. Homls ,
mayor , and James \Vinspoar , street com
missioner , nro undo defendants , and n copy
of the restraining order was served on the
last of the defendants yesterday morning
The hearing of the case Is sot for June 0 ,
bcforo the judges of the circuit court. Pend
ing iho hearing , the policemen who hnvo
bcoti guarding the foncu up to this tlmo will
bo removed.
City Attorney { Council stated yesterday
that ho had received no oflictal notice of thu
action taken In the federal court , but had
been Informed of tha issuance of the re
straining order. Until bo had seen the peti
tion , he said Unit ho could make no state
ment as to tha legal points raised. From the
scope of iho restraining order , however , ho
was puzzled to understand why the court udd
not settled the case then and there.

CAPTURED A BOLD THIEF.

Ofllcer Brady saw a coarsely clad man and
boy going In and out of the pawnshops on
lower Farnam street about U o'clock Sunday
evening and not liking tholr style asked
them to give an account of themselves , Tholr
btorv moved unsatisfactory to the pollcouan
and ho sent them to tlio jail as suspicious
characters. Brady didn't know it at the
time , but ho made u very gooa capture which
will probably add a few shining bhokels to
his already largo bank account. At headquarters -
quarters the boy gave his nnmo as Hoiiert
Mover and iho man us John Klmss. When
Jailor Hououl commenced to search the lad
ho was astounded , for the lirst thin ? ho
found was a now wallet containing fJUO in

of f2 n week. 6hloT Soavoy happened to bo
In bis oftlco anrti Irtl the boy on the rnck at

tie got , the cnief ordered the youngster
locked In the d rlc cell until such tlmo as ho

It didn't ' tnlto lone to bring the lad to

trols 15,000 cattle which tire now on the
fango of eastern Converse county.
In ioply to inquiries regarding the
trouble In Johnson county , Mr. Ban-on said
ho knew nothing moro than what had ap
peared lu the tolograpulo columns ot Tun
Bi'.u , as ho had never been In Johnson
county. Ho Is about ' , ' 50 miles from where
the trouble exists. Ho anticlnatcs no trou
ble the coming summer in gathering and
marketing cattle from tbo ranges occupied "
by the cattle in'which ho is interested. So
far ns the eastern end of Converse county is
concerned , Mr. Barren claims that rustling
of cattle from tlio companies has cut no
great 11 guro , and that none of the rustlers
who have the reputation of being such , have
succeeded in accumulating any considerable
number of cattlo.
"Hnvo the largo companies refused to
roundup cattle for the smaller ranchmen as
claimed I"
"No , sir , " replied Mr. Barren. "Speaking
for my own company It has always gathered
the cattle belonging to the farmers and
smaller ranchmen and shipped and marketed
them. So far as my knowledge extends
other companies have done likewise. It Is
qulto expensive to in alto a round-un ot
cattle and n ranchman with only a few head
of stock can betior afford to have the largo
cotnpanlosigathor in their cattle when the
round-up is being , made than to do it hem-
solves. It Is much cheaper for them. I am
personally acquainted With all the farmers
and ranchmen lit our section , nntt have
never felt that any gro.u projudlca existed
against largo companies. All farmers and
ranchmen are not rubtinrs and all cattlemen ,
whether they have 100 head or 10,000 upon
the ranco are mutually interested lu having
the business honestly conducted.
"Wyoming is essentially a stock raising
state , and the cattle business Is tlio ono
great business of the state. Tno destruction
or crippling of this business would bo the
most serious blow that could be struck at tbo
prosperity of the state Ttio c.Utlemcn al
ways pay their laxes promptly and largo
sums are disbursed throughout the state by
them. Although they have made monov
very little of It has gone rast to stockholders
in the Bhapo of dividends the past four year * .
' No man not n resident of Wyoming can
appreciate the situation. The excitement has
been intense throughout the state. "
"Is there any likelihood of the rustlers at
tacking the government troops at Fort Me-
Kinno.vl"
"To that inquiry I am unable to stnto. I
Know nothing moro about that than I see in
the newspapers. "
In regard to the talk of cattle owners with
drawing tholr stock from Wyoming , Mr.
Barren said that such action on the part of
stockmen would ruin any county in iho slate.
This question did not como about , ho says ,
on account of any trouble with rustlers , but
has boon talked of bv some because they
think the feeding In Montana is bettor.
Mr. Hnrroii is u largo purchaser of sup
plies and owns a mercantile establishment at
Lusk.
