jority Km or Reinforcement.
Interviews with members of the Omaha
bar go to nbow that the proponed reinforce
ment of the supreme court by calling ns-
Blstanco from the district Judges Is very gen
erally endorsed , although there Is some op
position. Opinions have been expressed an
follows
John R. Whorton I am heartily In favor
of the plan. At present the supreme court
is away behind with Its docket and there Is
urgent need of some kind of action to re
lieve the congestion. There Is work enough
to last three or four years already piled up ,
not to toke Into consideration the now bus
iness bound to como from time to time. I
believe the legislature could cattily settle
the legality of such a plan and If It were In
foroo I believe much good would bo accom
plished. You may say for mo that 1 hope
the proposition wilt materialize as speedily
as possible.
K W. Slmpnil I nm most emphatically
In favor of the reinforcement of the u-
prcme bench. It has connto be an absolute
neccpfilty. Something must bo done at once ,
for the supreme court has an accumulation
of work that under present conditions can
not be dispatched short of three years. I
have looked Into the rendition of the docket
and I speak advisedly. It Is but natural
that the bunlness In this court nhould In
crease from year to year and matters will
nperssarlly continue to grow worse unless
something IB done to give assistance. I .sec
no reason why the district judges could not
be lined to good advantage.
,1. M. Woolworth I have not given this
matter any thought and am not prepared at
this time to render on opinion , having thus
far given It no nttcntlon except a. ca&ual
glance at The Heo editorial.
Charles W. Haller The supreme court
without assistance , Is four years behind In
Its work. The plan suggested by The Bee
la good. The act appointing three commis
sioners was sustained as constitutional. The
biipreme court , with the assistance of thu
commissioners , accomplished nearly twlco
the work It can do now. The Twenty-eighth
district Judges , men elected by the people ,
could afford much assistance and their work
Mould hare the people's confidence. Of
course , the supreme Judges themselves must
still review and announce every decision , as
they did In ca e of the commissioners. This
scheme Is perfectly practical , nt least In all
cases submitted on briefs without oral argu
ment.
AVInc Temporary ISx
B. Wakoley I thlnlt the Dion suggested
seems a wise thing as a temporary expedi
ent. The supreme court hold that the ap
pointment of the commission which 1ms ex
pired was constitutional. This owed Its ex-
Utcnco solely to an act of the legislature.
It IH manifest that It would be equally con
stitutional for the legislature to provide that
the district court should perform the same
duties as assistants or aids to the supreme
court as devolved upon the former commis
sioners.
Charles J. Oreene It Is earnestly to bo de-
filred that some plan be devised to relieve
the congestion In the supreme court , but
as to the constitutionality of the plan I can
Bay nothing , ns I hnvo not examined the
question. If there Is nothing In the way the
plan nhould be adopted , as there are a nuin-
ver of very nblo Judges on the district bench.
Halph W. Dreckonrldge I am In favor of
any means by which the supreme court can
bo relieved and the docket reduced. I have
inquired Into the plans adopted by several
other states in similar conditions to relieve
the dlfllculty. I question the constitution
ality of the proposed plan to have the KU-
premo court call In the district Judges.
A. S. Churchill In Ohio and several other
states It has been held that laws creating
commissions to help the supreme courts wcro
constitutional , but that , I think , docs not
cover the present Inquiry , and I nm incline1 !
to think the proposed plau Is not constitu
tional , as the constitution provides for the
district Judges and confers their Jurisdiction ;
and I do not believe that it is within the
power of the legislature or any one else to
add other duties to those fixed by the con
stitution. The necessity for aid In the dis
position of the docket exists and I think
that the proper way out will be to revise
the constitution aa noon ns possible ,
W.J. . . Connell There Is no doubt that the
nupremd court needs help and I am In favor
of the proposed plan If the necessary legis
lation la made to legalize It. The district
Judges could save the supreme court a vast
amount of work and their opinions could be
reviewed and passed upon by the higher
judges. In this way 'there would be concur
rence , which , of course , would he necessary
to the legality of the arrangement.
M. It , learned I see great necessity for
some mich action , and while I am not pre
pared to express an opinion as to the con
stitutionality of the proposition , I nm pos
itive In the belief that It would result In
much good If the plan can bo legalized.
Carroll S. Montgomery I nm hardly In
favor of the plan. I have some doubts as to
the wisdom of such arrangement. The dis
trict Judges could , at most , only be an ad
visory board.
II. W. 1'ennock I doubt If such arrange
ment would prove satisfactory. I believe
the dlHtrlct Judges have all the work they
ought to have and that It IB best to let them
remain In the Jurisdictions to which they
were elected by the people.
HAS A CARD UP ITS SLEEVE
Piny to Ilr II n lie AKnlnnt Ton-Cent
llcntimriintn a * Well UN
I.uiiuliVnuronx. .
According to the story of Business Agent
Erlckson the Walters' wlon has a card up
Its sleeve which It Intends to play as soon
as the council passes the ordinance raising
the licence on the lunch wagons nnd which
will result In the Closing of a number of the
cheaper restaurants.
"Those restaurants which sell a meal for
10 cents are ns bad < the lunch wagons , "
Bays Mr. Krlckcon.
"In the first place they cannot serve a
clean nnd wholesome meal for a dime , and
such a meal as they do servo costs thecn 0
cents , making a profit of 1 cent on each
menl. They cannot employ help nt this rate
nnd thuy tnko trade from the restaurants
which do employ labor. The owners are
making nothing but a bare existence nnd It
would bo better for nil concerned , the owners
Included , If these houses wcro closed. "
In this connection It Is learned that the
movement put on foot to abolish the lunch
wagons will have an effect more far-reach
ing than Intended. Among the questions
submitted to the lending illness men on
the subject was one asking If the Board of
Health should not be empowered to examine
the food offered'for ' sale by the lunuh wagons.
Among the answers received several persons
state that they favor such inspection , not
only of the food offered by lunch wagons ,
but by nil dealers in food products , and
acting on this suggestion It Is said that In
terested parties will prepare an ordinance
to the council asking that all food products
offered for sale In Omaha bo Inspected by
agents of the Board of Health.
The banana man and peripatetic vender of
candy are to receive attention. The fruit
dealers and confectioners are taking a lesson
from the lestauratcurs and will ask the
council to relieve them of the Irresponsible
competition. One of the arguments advanced
by representatives of all the classes affected
Is that the wagons have an advantage over
the dealers In that they can move to catch
trade , while the man who occupies buildings
cannot , and that around all assemblages of
pcoplo these wagons can be seen selling
goods , whllo the man In an established house
can only watcli the crowd go by.

TELLS OF HIS CUBAN VISIT
E. D. Branch Returns from a Trip to
Havana and Other Cuban Cities.
PECULIAR CUSTOMS EMPLOYED AT HOTELS

SCIINOII of the Year.
E. 1) . Ilranch of this city has returned
from a pleasure trip through Cuba. Mr.
Ilranch left for his journey a month ago ,
accompanied by Fred C. Krancls
of Chicago. lie enjoyed the out
ing Immensely and has hardly yet
been nblo to accustom himself to the wintry
weather ho found upon his arrival In Omaha ,
after having experienced the delightful sum-
mtr clime of the West Indies.
"My trip was n profitable one , " said Mr.
Branch. "Its novelty was sufficient to en
hance Its pleasure greatly. We found that
we wcro not the only ones who were Becking
a summer cllmo at this season of the year , '
with the Idea In view nt the same time of :
exploring the now American possessions.
There were many American tourists In Cuba
and the accommodations being provided for
them are being Improved rapidly. From
New Orleans wo sailed to Cuba
and landed at Hmnnn. Prom thr >
moment we landed we were delightfully
entertained with the no\elty of all our sur
roundings ,
"Tho hotels In Havana are especially
good. They are largo nnd handsomely fur
nished. Marble and tiling are used almost
exclusively In their construction. All of
them have great open courts and ithe win
dow frames nro barred , there bslng in
window glasses. One of the "peculiar cus
toms Is the manner cf living which 'the
middle and upper classes employ and whlrh
Is the custom nl nil of the hotels. Break
fast Is not served until 11 o'clock and It
is certainly an elaborate meal. After 0
o'clock In the morning , however , one can
get a light repast of coffee nnd rolls , but
nearly every one waits for the breakfast.
Then dinner Is served at C o'clock. uUl the
food and the manner of service are en
tirely different from what wo Americans
are accustomed to , but It Is by no means
distasteful. The prices at the hotels nro
about on a par with the rates charged by
American bostclrles.
Mimy IMnoon of liitproM.
"A visit to Havana without seeking some
of the Interesting plncou In the Interior is
like a visit to America it one should stop
only at Now York. There are so many Inter
esting points that are easily accessible that
oiio Is really at a loss to know which to
visit , provided his time Is limited so that
ho can't explore everything. There are a
number of railroads going out of Havana ,
none of them for any great distance , but
they strlko many Interesting points. We
went to Cardenas and Matanzos. These
places are especially Interesting to Ameri
cana because of the vivid recollections we
hnvo of their connection with the Spanish-
American war.
"While wo were in Cuba the climate was
exceedingly delightful. It wan Just such
weather ns wo have hero on a balmy June
day. In the summer , of course. It Is hotter
and more oppressive , but at this time the
weather Is all that could possibly be desired.
I believe that Cuba will bo the objective
point of the majority of winter tourists dur
ing the next few years nnd for this reason I
was "especially Interested In getting an In
sight fiuo the conditions of the Island In
order to bo able to talk Intelligently about It
to prospective tourists.
CubiiiiN Are Contented.
"Tho Cubans seemed to me to toe perfectly
contented. Everybody was busy and there
was an air of prosperity everywhere appar
ent. There were no Idlers to bo seen. Many
of the men are employed by the government
In railroad building and In the street-clean
ing gnngo , of which there are any number.
Outnldo the city the tobacco plantations are
In full blast. So far as I could perceive the
Cubans are certainly satisfied with their tot
under existing conditions. There are bodies
of mounted rural policemen , but thejjniave
but little demand for their services. Cuba
offers n. delightful place for the tourist , but
I don't think It would be advisable for a
man to go there In search of a fortune , un
less he has money to Invest In a plantation.
An American laborer would hardly bo able
to compete with the natives and if I were
hunting a Job I would rather take my
chances of getting one In Waboo or some
other Nebraska town than In Havana. "

General Superintendent T. K. Calvcrt of
the tturllngton Is authority for thu statr-
mcnt that the new line between Hill City
ntld Keystone will be In operation nbout thu
middle of February. This In a short line
9.5 rallos In length which gives Keystone ,
one of the most promising mining tamps In
the southern niack Hills of South Dakota ,
railroad connection with the outside world.
The famous Holy Terror mine , noted for the
marvelous richness of Its ore , Is located nt
this point.
The rails on the new line are entirely laid ,
but the track must br surfaced up and this
will take two or three weeks longer , owln ?
to the frozen condition of the ground. Mr.
Calvcrt thinks that It will be a bigger Job
to surface up the track than It was to lay It.
As soon as the new- line Is ready for o era-
tlon It U planned to run a mixed train Into
Kejplono every other day. This train will
leave Ucadwood In the morning and from
Hill City go to Keystone , thence back to
illll City and south to Edgcmont. Thin
plan will not necessitate the addition of anv
now trains , but will accomplish the desired
end by giving Keystone satisfactory railroad
accommodations.

The building and property committee ul
the Board cf Kdiicallon has Inaugurated n
new policy In conducting the repair work ai
various school buildings. Last year the
committee , through Superintendent ol
Buildings Banker , maintained a pay roll
varying from CO to over 100 men. These
workmen were distributed among dlffcronl
schoolH nnd weio supposed to occupy them-
ozlvca In keeping grounds and buildings In
llrsl-claKi condition. When they had noth
ing better to do the laborers consumed to
bacco In the basement and exchanged stork1 :
with the Janitor.
When some Important job was on hand
such ns for example reshlngllng n school
building , Superintendent Banker testified
before the Investigating committee that hi
was compelled to employ political friend-
of the members , who frequently drove the
nails Into the wrong end of the shingle. The
work was therefore much more costly that :
If ho had conducted It In bis own Interest.
Chairman Barnard of the buildings anil
property committee says that when his ad
ministration began there were about fifty
men oh the pay roll. The force has now
been decreased to live and Is engaged In re
pairs of immediate urgency. When work ol
any Importance Is to be done the committee
will favor asking bids and awarding con
tracts. The committee In making this
change doce not wish to bo understood as
striking a blow at labor nnd IB In favor of
Inserting a union schedule In the contracts.
Its only desire is to reduce the outlay for re
pairs , which last year was found to bo more
than double what might reasonably have
been expected.
