BIXBY'S ' PROPERTY RIGHTS DISREGARDED
HI * Mile nt the Tlioroitglif.irc Not Npcentarjr

but III * At tonic ] a Say
. Otherwise.
The residents of. South Flwt street beamed
sweet smiles of contentment , & ' . one nnothor
yesterday morning when they owoko nui
discovered that n largo force of men was nt
, vork laying a now track In front cf the resi
dence of J. C. BUby. There hal bison
rumors floating around for several d.iys prc-
lous to the effect thatlnsldo of a weak some
move would bo raaaoyhlch would result in
ho running of trains fro-n Broadway to
Fnlrmount park , r.na the people who bohcltl
the latest move thought they saw the end of
ho trouble they have had walking oiclt and
forth on account of the Inability of J. C. Blx
by tocorao to nn tigMomont with the motor
company lu the matter of damages.
Permission was asltoJ from and ( -ranted by
the owners of property on the other sldo of
the street from Blxby , to lay a tractt on
their sldo of the thoroughfare , Just west of
the middle of the street , so in to take the
line off the half of tUo street whlcn was sup
posed to belong ctilelly to Blxbv and which ,
it wftt thought , was covered by the Injunc
tion Issued from the superior court , Iho
management ot the motor line clalmoJ thnt
trnlns would bo put on ootwoen Uroadway
and the park just us soon as the track could
uo laid and the water and mud which has ac
cumulated in the ptrk cut-off during the
months of disuse will bo removed.
But If the claims of Blxby and his alter
neys amount to anything the now-born hones
ot the other property owner.- * may turn out
'
bo very short llved.'for they say that the In
junction which JudifoMcGoonMied nsstraln-
Inc the company from running Us trains on
Mndlson street had ofTest not only on Bixby's
side of the street but on the whole stroat.
So that tf trains uro oooratod on the now
piece of track It will render the ofllcc of
company llaolo to nn action for con
tempt just ns much as a direct violation
lation of the injunction would have
done. Blxby still cling- * to his
o'.d claim , and manifests no Inclination to Ho
down and let the other property owner * ot
the street have Iho motor service which they
so much dcslro. The motor company Is
willing to run the rlik of un action for con-
toinpt , however , for it was given out cold
last evening from the headquarter * that tbo
first train would po itlvoly DO run over the
South First street line this morning nt 0:20 :
o'clock. Evidently the trouble Is not entirely
over yet , However , and the public will fool a
good'deal ot interest in tbo Cnul outcome.

The action of Judge Dooraer in refuiing to
allow the district court Jurymen to receive
pay from the county for any time when they
arn not actually In service is not resting very
easily on the stomachs of the Jurymen. They
held a meeting a few days ago , at which they
decided to go on a gore-bunting expedition.
Judge Dcetnor was tbo prime causa of tbolr
dissatisfaction , but knowing that the passage -
sago ot a sot of resolutions denouncing1 him
would only result In their admiring the sojn
cry from behind tbo bars of Sheriff Hazcn's
house for a few days , they wisely decided to
lot him Mono and seek satisfac
tion elsewhere. They accordingly pre
pared a statement , in which they de
nounced TUB Bee for publishing an ac
count of tbo throes of mental anguish
through which they wore passing. They
also cttou a uumuor 01 ncurcs wuiun were
intended to show that the wuges paid to
Jurymen were so grossly Inadequate. This
statement was signed by several of the
members of tire Jury panel and one of tbo
city papers was Induced to publish 1U
TUo subject of profoisloaal Jurymen is ono
that will bear ventilating and an investiga
tion is not at ull Improbable , Judslng from
tbo remark ; made by some of the county
ofliccrs , and already quoted In thcso columns.
Jt Is a well known'fuct in Iho neighborhood
of the court house that tbo Jury system , as it
Is carried on In the wen end of Pot-
inwattarnlo county , at least , Is a howling
lurco. Year uftcr year for tbo
past ten years the names of tbo
fcamo individuals have been returned
by the election boards of the varioui town
ships througnout tbo county , as candidates
for the grand and potlt Juries , and the fucoi
ot the men who compose tbo two juries have
bocon.o almost as familiar to tno Judges acd
the attorneys as the chandeliers or other fix
tures of the court bouse. Some of tbo Jury
men have bcon so auxloux to servo their
country for their own and tholr country's
treed that tlioy buvo gotten themselves ap
pointed Judges of election and then have ro
turncd their own names to tbo county
auditor on both Iho grand and potlt Juries.
Tliu evident anxiety of dozens of icon in the
county to have their name * on the Jurv llstA
rather teti'ls to throw discredit on' their
statement that they cannot afford to serve
their country at the rate tlxed by the court.
J. It Wlluiott , whoso narno beads tbo list
of signatures to tbo published statement ,
has bad bis name returned to the county
auditor every your for the past seven yeari ,
with tbo exception of IbSS. II. A. Smith has
borvedoti Juries regularly for thrco out nf
the last tivo years. S. Butler , another moinbor
of tbo regular panel , bus boon a resident of
the county for only three year * past , but he
managed to get on the Jury every ycur since
bo came hero. The nurno of 'I , U. Jackson ,
another of the present Jurymen , can bo
found on tbo books as a member ot ibo Jury
m 18S1 , IbST , 183. 18b , 1 'JO and lb'J2. Many
other cases of tbo amo kind uro dliclosed
on consulting the records in the court bouse ,
and indicate very strongly that some men , nt
least , tlnd the profession of Jury-serving us
prolltablo as anything else they could do.
Some of the attorneys who enjoy tbo
widest practice of any In tbo 1'ottawaUamlo
county bar , state that they bavo known of
numerous cases where Juries have decided to
stay out for nn hour or two after they have
settled upon a verdict , In order to bleed the
county for another day's \vasos or another
meal at the county's expense. There is n
Inn which sars thnt after a man gets to bo
05 years ot ago bo tnny bo excused from
serving on Juries. The oldest inhabitant
who Is familiar with district court matters
falls to romumber when n Juryman has over
pleaded his ace as nn cxcusu for non-
service. Instances nro cited within
the cast , low year * wbcro Juries
in criminal cases hnvo been hung
bv certain Jurvmeu who had been promised
official positions by the attorneys for the de
fense , who happened to enjoy a strong
tboueb totrporarv "purl" with some ot the
powers above. Altogether , there Is so much
material in connection with Jury matters
which might bo worked to good advantage
by the ernml Jury , thnt in case the promised
Investigation takes place some rich and racy
developments may bo looked for.
Tncre are on the present panel , as on pre
vious ones , good men and true , but they can
ill afford to stand buforo tbo public ns bonds
men to euarnntco the purity , Impartiality
and faithfulness of every ono ot their com
radcs.

NEBRASKA'S OPPORTUNITY.
Mr. Mobloy HI-RC * Citizens of tlio State to
i\crtlon for the World's r.ilr.
URAXII ISLAND , Nob. , Juno 15. To the
Editor of Trie BEE : The attention of the
people of Nebraska cannot bo too frequently
called to the desirability of proper repre-
s3ntnton ! from this state at ibo World's fair ,
nor can the importance of making the best
exhibit possible in ail practical departments
of the great exposition bo too forcibly im
pressed upon their minds , for upon tbo pee
ple mainly depends failure or success.
Such opportunities for advantageous ex
hibit come only once in a lifetime. The
world has never soon an exposition gotten up
upon such a grand and comprehensive scale ,
and it is not lllcely that another like it will
aguln bo witnessed in the lifetime of any
person now living. Upon this occasion people
ple will not assemble by the tens of thou
sands , but by the tens of millions , not only
from all portions of the United Status , but
frc'tn every part of the civilized world , to
witness the wondrous evidences of a most
remarkable growth by a most progressive
people , under the favor of divine providence.
As an educator this exposition will stand
unparalleled In the history on the enlight
ened world. It will speak of all countries and
in nil tonguesand will glvo a'scops of general
knowledge of countries aud people and
bounteous gifts of nature , aud marvelous
genius ot man , which coula not bo obtained
by years of travel. What a glorious oppor
tunity it will offer to the young state of
Nebraska to present to the bent advantage
her pecnliar charms 1 Under tbo dripping
dews of the great dome there ib no Inirer
land tbun Nebraska , and this will bo the
time and place to make statement
of the fact and back It with the convincing
proofs. Wo want to speak of our produc
tive soil , our abundance of pure , sparkling
water , our invigorating cllmuto , our energy ,
onllghttnent nnd liberality. What will bo
moro convincing proof of the truth of our
statements than the presentation of some of
our proJucts , agricultural. Industrial aud in-
tcllentuuH Tliestatomentiscapubleof demon
stration that tboro is no place on earth where
ouurgy and industry intelligently directed
promise moro nrolillc returns. Wo want , to
exhibit our tallest rye , oats , barley , wheat ,
corn , millet , timothy , clover , etc. , our largest
potatoes , onions , oc-ets. pumpkins nnd cab-
oagos , our choicest fruits , honey and buttor.
and convince all doubters that all along the
line succors in a remarkable degree crowns
proper effort. 'Wo want to convince tbo people
plo that what people arodolng pnople may do.
Tbnro will bo tens of thousand * ot people
there from tbo ovcrpopulated states of the
cast , willing end anxious to bettor their con
dition bv a change , if you but convince them
that you oiTer'a chungo for the bettor. Take
pains to show to such that wo still have
niilllouft of acres of unoccupied land , each
aero of which will produce four times as
much as the same quantity among tbo
sterile hills or tno cast , and at
less than one-fourth tbo cost of pro
duction , and wboo making the statements
point to our products as tbo proof. Show
otnersinai tuis siuin is capauiuoi sustain
ing 10.000,000 people as well as the 1,000,000
we uow have , and depend upon It those now
here as well as those to came will bo bono-
11 ted by tbo increase. Bulk of business
builds business and batters markets. U will
glvo railroads a carrying trade that will not
only Justify but bring a great reduction in
rates , and in the train will come enhanced
values in land , Increased manufacturing in
dustries and bolter times for all.
Lot us not stand stooping In the vain at
tempt to lift ourselves over the foncu by our
bootstraps , but lot us stand erect , like men ,
and scale tbo obstacles In our path. Let us
pursue the pushing policy that rcsuUod in
the upbuilding of the great World's lair city ,
whlcn 1s the marvel el all people , standing
unparalleled foriupldlty of growth In the
Ins lory of nations , Wllbln a comparatively
fo'v years the energy of man has transformed
uturius of frog ponds along the shore of
Ltko Mlchlcan Into the great city which Is
now the pride of the world , and the same
son of stuff will work a wonderful change In
this state. Lot us apply it with all tbo will
and Inlolllironca wo possess , Tbo oppor
tunity U at band. Lot us seize It.
Farmers , upon your co-operation and help
oil depends. As you pass through your
iloldb select specimens of your choicest pro
ducts , and notify some member of the com
mission , some superintendent or some mem
ber of the local World's fair organization , so
that tbo svoulmon may bo carefully saved
nnd exhibited with tbo name tit producer and
place of production attached. Small quanti
ties of tbo choicest products of every neigh
borhood are wanted In order to prove that
the state U an all-over cooJ ouo and not
merely productive lu tipats , Ilka some of tbo
older or eastern status that bOino of you re
member so well.
It will bo the aim of tbo commission to ex
hibit the bc.it furnished In the best possible
manner , both attractive and convincing.
The best products that can bo secured at tbo
state fair this year will bo carefully pre
served for the Nebraska exhibit ut tbo
World's fhlr , uud we would therefore urge
tuoro general interest in exhibiting at the
state fair than Is common and more pains In
selecting the very cholceit specimen * obtain
able. With your hulp all doubl will bo dis
pelled and Nebraska will put up such un ox-
hlbil at Chicago ui will prove surprising to
