Douglas County's Next Agricultural Show
Is Nut Yet I.oratvil.
The Douglas County Agricultural society
held a meeting yesterday afternoon In the
Board of Trade rooms , with President
James Walsh in the chair.
The bids for printing the premium list ,
suomlttccl by the Oirmha , Hoes , Burkley and
Festner printing companies , were read.
After some discussion the liurkloy proposi
tion wns accepted , the secretary being in-
strutted to draw up a contract with the
company. The offer was to print 5,000
copies free of charge ana to give a bonus of
? : J5 for the privilege.
G. W. Hervoy reported that the premium
list would bo ready for the printer by next
Wednesday.
O. .1. 1'lckard of the committee appointed
to suggest a modification of the name of the
society recommended that it bo not changed ,
but that the title page of the premium list
and other advertising matter t > o matte to
read : "Omaha Fair and Kuces ; Open to the
World ; Held by the Douglas County Aricul-
turnl Society. " Tills form was adopted.
Henry Kicko having declined to act as
superintendent ; of the lloral department , G.
S. Ambler was elected in his stead.
The ruh'S and regulations governing the
sugar beet display as read by .loan F. Me-
Anile , superintendent ot the departmeat ,
were adopted.
A lengthy discussion followed as to what
should bo done relative to securing fait
grounds for the present year. It was stated
that if $10,000 could bo raised and eighty
acres of ground purchased by the Omaha
Driving Park association , the new grounds
west of the city might bo obtained. A road'
way to these grounds would probably be
paved during the summer , and the streo !
railway company had agreed to extend its
tracks to them so soon as the fair should be
successfully inaugurated. Some of the members -
bors , believing there wore too many contin
gencies In the way , favored securing without
delay the old grounds north of town
They could have them , they said , for th <
same price as last year , $1,000 , with the
privilege of removing any buildings tin
society should construct. A motion was
finally carried that the committee having
the matter In charge should make arrange
ments for leasing the old grounds , providrt'
they could bo secured on satisfactory terms
President Walsh submitted that the fall
should bo thoroughly advertised and though !
( in agent should bo appointed for the pur
txjso. The honor was , much fo his surprise
bestowed upon him.

BOIL THE WATEB.
iill of Organic Matter W\tor Works Cora-
puny Not to Illume.
With the present high state of ths river
and the largo flow of surface water into It , It
Is impossible for the water works company
to furnish the city with anything but muddy
looking water. All attempts to settle the
water itir the basins so . that it will look
clearer are futile. Or. Somers gave his
views of the matter yesterday , saying :
"I am informed by the water works com
pany that its pumps and settling basins are
in the best of condition and the present state
of the water wo are consuming is not due to
any fault of the company. My idea is that
the water is nlled with organic matter in
solution and that it is impossible to cause a
settling. I believe it is actually colored.
This is due to the vast surface wash into the
river and the use of the water in its pres
ent state is not good for the health and will
tauso a derangement of the digestive organs.
"I recommend and urge the people to boll
all water before using for domestic purposes
until such a time as the sufauo water has
ceased to How and the river resumes its nor
mal condition. I have also recommended to
the water works company to use chemicals
in settling the water , and I expect that will
bo done. If the boiling process is carried
out for the period that the water is in its
present state no serious results will follow
and we will all bo as well off as over. "
Dr. Somers had an analysis of the water
made , and last evening ho reported that it
was filled , as he supposed , with organic mat
ter in solution.

NOHFOI.K , Neb. . March 2.5. To the Editor
of THE BEE : It is suggested to the citizens
of this place that they puivhaso the old
Creighton skating rink and have it moved to
the open ground near the s-igar factory , sur
round it with a tight barbed wire fence , en
closing sufllcient ground for a graveyard ,
where it can bo used as a place of meeting
for a society known in these parts as the
Commercial Pilgrims.
The society , or some members of it , had a
meeting here last night , radiating between
the two leading hotels , and tno wall of
"Good Lord , deliver us , " that went up from
the guests that wcro not pilgrims was piti
ful. At about 5 a. in. the pilgrims sank in
the heated sands , or the spirits that had
stimulated them gave out , and the chilling
blasts that came roaring through windows
that had been smashed in the melco drove
them to cover.
The proprietors of the hotels will bo re
quested to run their houses hereafter with
Uatllng guns , with a platoon of policemen
for bell boys whenever the pilgrims como to
town. It is an outrage on respectable men ,
who arc traveling men by occupation , that
employers should hire such a lot of hood
lums 'and inflict respectable communities
with tlieir presence and disgrace the occu
pation. Yours for decency ,

TiiiAt. ALLIANCE , New YOIIK , March 21. To
the Editor of The IJco : We ask your aid and
co-operation in this effort of our citizens'
and business men's associations and work-
ingmen's trade and labor unions , to repeal
.the grant of a now patent to this great mo
nopoly ( the American Bell Telephone com
pany of Boston , Mass. , ) who have raised
their rates from GO , when competition ex
isted. to f ISO and ? ' ' 40 per year , when the
rates charged for the same instruments in
Europe , where the patent has also expired ,
but was not renewed by a corrupt ofllcial , is
from $18 to $ 'JO per year.
We propose to appeal to the president , the
attorney general and the senators and rep
resentatives of the United States for justice ,
and to the circuit court of Massachusetts for
a speedy trial of the suit now before that
court , to declare the new patents illegal and
void , so that this monopoly may and shall bo
destroyed for the good of the community and
the benefit of all classes of the people.
Therefore we ask you to aid in this good
work by securing the adoption and signing
of this petition by organizations of business
men and workingmen , who are robbed of
their earnings by the excessive and unjust
rates charged for telephones and messages ,
and by their forwarding otw copy of the
same to the president , vice president , At
torney General Olney , Solicitor Gcncr.il
Aldrich , and to the senators of your state ,
and also one copy to our secretary for the
use of our committee. Yours for the cause
of Justice and anti-monopoly ,
JOHN J. GAUBUTT , Chairman.
E. J. MtniuAY , Secretary.

Form of Petition.
1'etltlon to rellavo the people from the un
just und uxtnrtlonato rates and charm'- the
llull Telephone company monopoly.
Whereas , The Hell telephone patent has ox-
plrod iiftor enriching a few htockholdurs of a
nrlvatn corporation by over u hundred mil
lions of dollars , extorted from the people by
exorbitant rates and charges for the use of
that Instrument , through Its monopoly liy the
Hull Telephone company of Boston. And as
This monopoly Is still continued by Illegal
and fraudulent patents reissued by the United
States patent olllce , In violation of the laws of
the United StHtus. and In defiance of the
written protests of the attorney general of
the United States , who uoven years n o
entered u suit In the courts to repeal the
Hull , Kdlson and llorllner patents , ns expired
by law , ntitl void , Illegal and fraudulent ,
which suit cannot bo forced to trial by the al-
tornuy general of the United Status , as this
monopoly , by Its grout wealth and Inllnenco ,
can block the wheels of law and justice In all
our courts and halls of legislation , and own
and control the ring In our patent olllce , who
In every case rule and decide In favor of cor
porations , and against the rights and welfare
of the people.
Ho It resolved , That wo petition the presi
dent of the United States , the attorney gen
eral , and the sunato and house of representa
tives to relieve the pcoplo from the oppres-
Klons and exactions of tnlx great and powerful
monopoly , who propose , In dcllanco of all laws
and just ten , the voice of the press , and the de
sires and will of the people , to continue to rule
and to ! ) our citizens wlio use the telephone , by
u fraudulent use of tills Illegal reissued pat
ent , and by dilatory litigation In our courts ot
justice.
