The arJllon of the city council last Tuesday
night In deferring action on the Corby
street pavement for another thirty days
on the plea that the property owners had
not hnd the time prescribed by law In which
to file their petitions to designate the
material , Is severely criticised by numerous
properly owners on tlmt street , who assert
that such action was simply a scheme to
RVO | tb brick contractors time to get a
majority of the property owners on their
petition or , falling In that , to postpone the
paving for another yc.ir. The action of the
council was on the recommendation of the
committee on paving , curbing and guttering
and was bitterly opposed by other members ,
who were arbitrarily ruled out of order
by the chair.
The ordinance ordering the street paved
was passed by the council on June 5 , and
was apprencd by the mayor on Juno 8.
Section 2 of the ordinance Is as follows.
"That the property owners are hereby noil-
fled to determine and select the material
with which said street shall bu paved nnd
notify the city council of such selection
within thirty days after the appruv.il of
this ordinance. "
Although the projected pavement IB only
four blocks In length , extending from Sher
man avenue to Twentieth struct , the Job
seemed to be In great demand among the
contractors. In times like thebe when pub
lic Improvements are few and far between
the contract was desirable enough so that
the rival brick and asphalt contiactors
worked hard to get a sufficient number of
signers in favor of their material. In this
an nflldavlt was submitted to the council
by property owners who ass rtcd tlmt the
brick men were working the matter with
more zeal that discretion. The iitlldavit
was signed by Anna Schurz , who swore that
T. C. Hruner had obtained h ° r signature tea
a brick petition by unfair means. She as
serted that Hruner had Induced hci to sign
by representing that certain other property
owners had signed the petition when they
had not , and by further Informing her that
It was legal for1 * her to sign the petition ,
when her mother was the real owner of the
property In question. This affidavit was
also referred to Parker's committee , from
which It has never been lesurrected.
The pel tlons for material wore filnd with
the city clerk on July 3 or Just after the
thirty days allowed by Uic law had elapsed.
They were referred to the committee and to
the city engineer. The report of the latter
showed that while there was .1 plurality In
favor of thp asphalt material there was no
majority In favor cf either. The committee
reported the petitions back to the council
Tuesday night with the recommendation
thai another th.rty days be given the property -
erty owners In which to designate a mate
rial. A resolution to this effect was signed
by Parker and Ilnscall , who stated tlmt this
action was necessary because the property
owners had only hud nineteen dajs In which
to get their petitions ready Instead of the
thirty clays prescribed by law.
Wheeler , { founders and Edwards de
manded thai the clerk produce the records
to show whether the representat.on of the
committee was a fact This the chair re-
ftibcd to allow and demanded that they
should VOID en the resolution without fur
ther argument. They then demanded tlmt the
Journal should be made to show that they
had demanded this information before voting
and had been refused , but the chair sum
marily ruled them out of order and they
voted under protest. During the time tlmt
thld wan going on a councilman had a quiet
conversltlin w.th Deb Johiipnn , Hugh Mut-
phy's confidential agent , and then he re
turned to his desk and demanded that dc-
bate be closed and the previous question
put. To this the dissenters demurred , on
the ground thai II required a majority of
Iho council to move the previous question ,
bul Ihe chair Ignored their point of order
and the roll was called. A few minutes
after Mr. Johnson stated to a Boo repoiter
that nil they wanted was to get the thing
put off so that It could be sidetracked until
another year , when they would have un as
phalt outfit of their own and be able to bid
on cither material.
The prcperty owners who favor the as
phalt declare that If the council attempts
to lay a brick pavement they will stop them
by Injunction on the gi omul that the council
was required by law to designate asphalt
according to the petit onb reported on Tues
day night.
NOT INClINii : > TO COMPLY.
Hoard of 1'iihlloVoiliH Slow to Act on the
Corby Mil-lit I'm hi ) ; .Mutter.
The resolution passed at the last meetIng -
Ing of the council seeking to gl\o the prop
erty owners on Corby street an additional
thirty days In which to select mitorlal for
paving came up for consideration at the
meeting of the Hoard of Public Works yes-
terdsy afternoon. Sewer Commissioner
Balcombo said that the only legal way In
which the council could accomplish this
was to annul the old ordinance and begin
proceedings over again under a new one.
Any petition for material that was produced
after the original thirty days had expired
would bo Illegal , and the bats would bo let
down for un endless amount of litigation ,
Chairman Winspear bald that tills was
the first time that they had been asked to
do Mich a thing. Ho contended that the
tlmo for filing petitions dated from the day
on which the ordinance was approved by
Ihe mayor , and that consequently the coun
cil resolution was misleading when It de
clared thai the piopcrty owners had not
had the thlity days required by law. In
support of his position ho read the section
of the charter that was quoted In > ester-
duy'u Bee , and n written opinion from the
city attorney , In which his position was
nfllrmed. The board decided to lay the
resolution ovtr without action until the
next meeting.
The resolution of the council directing
the board to Increase the wages of city la
borers to 17 , i cents per hour was read and
placed on file. All members stated that
they would llko to pay tlio men more If It
could be done consistently , but .as the pres
ent rate of 15 cents was the' top notch
among the contractors and others who em
ployed u similar class of labor tlmy could
not see their way to pake u change without
paying more tlmn current wages , as dic
tated by the charter.
The street commissioner was directed to
notify the Missouri Pacific railroad to re
pair the craving at Sherman avenue.
Another matter which was laid over until
the next meeting was a call from numerous
boards of public works of the largo cities for
a convention of the commissioners to bo held
In Buffalo , N. Y. , September 19 , to discuss
now methods In public work and exchange
Ideas on subjects connected with tholr de
partments , This call was signed by the com
missioners of St. Louis , Louisville , Bbston ,
Cincinnati , Denver , New Orleans , Syracuse ,
N. Y. , Milwaukee and Omaha. The Idea
originated with Street Commissioner M. J.
> ( urply ; of St. Louis , who sent out circular
letters to all the largo cities , asking them
to recommend u date and place for such n
convention , Most of them approved the
I lira , nnd Buffalo was telected us u meeting
plaeo chiefly on account of the Immcnso
amount of public Improvements thai had been
accomplished there within the past few years ,
ami from which It was thought considerable
Information could bo acquired. It Is the
intention to organize n permanent associa
tion , and the convention will probably bo at

Nortlmlilerft on the \Vur I'ntli
The meeting of the Omaha View Improve
ment club at Twenty-sKth and Lake Thurs
day n Wit van on n par with the weather To
say tlmt things wciu hot would bo putting
It mildly. Spades wcro called kpades fro > n
Blurt to finish , and the club achieved a
reputation second only to the Klflh ward
"k ckers" on the clly council Itself.
Tha already widespread Indignation at the
one-horse service of the two-horse car linn
on Lnk6 direct , was Intensified by rome of
the members 6n their way to the club room
about 8 o'clock who MW one of the cars goIng -
Ing Into the barn for the night , Icavllng two
ladles lo get from home from fhere on fool ,
as besl they could. The club unanimously
concurred In another resolution asking the
clly council to exercise Its right under the
charter , compelling n ten-mlnuto service
until midnight on the Lake street line.
The principal bone of contention , however ,
was the grade and grading of Lake and
Thirtieth street. The discussion developed
the fact that with the exception of the
Omaha 8trc < * t Hallway company nnd Mr.
Patrick the property owners on Lake arc
nearly ail opposed to the old established
grndo ami In favor of the n'vv grade pro
posed by this club. A resolution was
finally passe'l , however , endorsing the ordi
nance Introduced In the city council at Its
InsU meeting declaring tin 'necessity of
grading those slreets , the clly to pay one-
half the expense.
The election of ofllc rs was postponed until
the next mooting on Thursday , August 2.

Is to try to compromise iho dlffuri'nces Le-
Iwcci'i the commissioners an.l the county
In a manner that will be satlsfae tory to
both parties.
When the local stockholders doclded to
accept the proposition of the county com
missioners , as formulated by the citizens'
committee , Iheir action was maJo condi
tional upon tlio approval of Mr. Kuuntzc ,
who was then out of the city , Afterwards
this condition was the cause of u temporary
lull In negotiations , nnd for a fn < v d-iys It
seemed Improbable that the company would
accept tlio proposition unless II , vas mcdl-
fied lo n considerable extent. The com-
inlsbloners were unwilling to rclrc.tt , nnd
after thai no material advance was made
toward an uiidci standing until > csterday ,
when the parties Intereslcd held an in

weio considered and the meeting appointed
for today.
According to the statements of one of the
participants , It U Ilkciy that an agree

Sounds "odd" but it fits the case precisely After
a destructive cyclone , you "clear the debris , " and to
wipe it out of memory you must sweep it clean' '
after a hurricane of business as it i& customary to
the Nebraska it behooves us to "clear away the
debris , " or , perhaps , more Bostonishly expressed ,
"To dismiss the superfluous conglomeration of un
welcome accumulations. "
Right here in Omaha we call 'cm odds and
ends good honest merchandise they are to be
sure but of no value to us , because we never carry -
ry goods to next season and above all. we never
begin a season on broken stock.
You'll find , by carefully looking over , some
thing you can use , in every department and if it
be your sty'e and fit there is a golden strike right
there because the price is likely one half what it
used to be or , perhaps a trifle above.
In our suit department we have a good many
broken lots of suits can't very well sell 'em down
to the root , because we have always such a tremendous
deus collection same case with the trousers de
partment for the same reason we have some rem
nants in our boys' and children's department and
iu our luil department and in our shoe deparment
and more so in our men's furnishing stockin
shirts underwear and the like , where the supply
and demand is tremendous.
( S3- We firmly believe in cleaning house of broken
lots experience taught us so and we therefore
apply the broom of reduction , and dust off the last
vestige of profit and often below the price they
could be manufactured at.
A sale for mutual benefit we clean hotise-
you save the stuff.
