morchants and lobbers of Council Illuffs
against tho recent Increase In Insurance
rates and a determined effort will bo made
to resist tho advance At a meeting of
tho merchants nnd Jobbers resolutions,
which had been signed by the indlvlditnl
firms, wero considered nnd endorsed In the
following manner:
Resolved, Thnt In view of the facts
stnted In the attached resolutions, signed
by some of tho merchants and Jobbers of
Council Illuffs, la., we ask that the original
rates of Insurance llxeil on our respective
properties be re-established, for the reason
that the same urn reasonable and adeiiuute
compensation for the protection afforded
us by the companies carrying our risks.
llesolved, further, Thnt a cony of these
resolutions be sent to Henry D. Dennett,
Cedar Haplds, la., and a eopy furnished
to each of the local Insurance agents In
the city, with the request that each local
agent torwiird a copy of tho same to the
various companies teprcfented by him.
These resolutions are signed by Charles
W. McDonald, as chairman, nnd F. It,
Davis, as secretary.
Formal Proles!,
Thf formnl protest thus to bo sent to
Dennett and to tho local agents follows:
Whereas, The merchants nnd Jobbers of
Hie city of Council Hlulfs, la., havo been
recently notltled through the local repre
sentatives of the various Insurance com
panies doing business In this city that
Henry Dennett of Cedar Hntdd uctlrig or
such Insurance compnnles, ;uis lnereas"d
the rates of Insurance on our various prop
erties from 10 per cent to 'M per cent; now,
therefore, be It
llesolved, by tho undersigned merchants
nnd Jobbers, That wo protest ngalnst such
Increase of rates us unjust, unreasonable
and contrary to the laws of the stain of
lown. for the following reasons:
1 The history of lire losses In this city
for tho last eleven years does not call for
or warrant such Increase of rates or any
Increase of the rates, us will be shown by
the following facts, taken from the olllclul
records of the city:

2 The establishing of the rates ns above
described Is contrary to the provisions of
section 1,754 of the Code of 1897. now In
force In this ttnto, and the arrangement
mnde by the companies with Mr.- Dennett
of Cedar Haplds Is a subterfuge to evadi
and violate the laws of tho state and such
promulgation of rates should subject such
companies to the penalty of the law.
Resolved, further, , Thut we use all
honorable mentis to have tho old rates

the Increased rates until tho courts hold
that the lusurnnco companion havo a legal
right to Imporo the same upon us.

At the meeting of the Rent Eatnto ex

charged with tho matier of assessments on

wns ndoptcd without division as follows:
To the Omaha Real Ustato Exchange:
iour committee, to whom wns referred
tho mutter of Investigating the assess
ments of the Omaha Street Raliwn com
pany, the Omaha (las company nnd other
franchlsed cot poratlons, tlrst secured re
liable Information as to the present actual
market value of the properties of such
corporations, and then compured the ns
sessed villi of said t'orpnrutions with the
nssessed value of 11 large number of sub
stantial, well Improved business blocks In
the business center of Omaha, also with
small improved residence properties nnd
unimproved business and residence proper
ties, and in addition to the report made nt
the last meeting of the exchange, bog to
submit the following:
1. That the 'Corporation assessments vary
from S per cent to 15 per cent of their
present market value.
2. Thnt the lurgu business blocks nro In
vnrlablj asrehseil at from 35 per cent to M

value.
3. That n mnjorlty of the unimproved
business and residence properties nnd tho
cheaper class of Improved residence prop
ertles are nsessed at from M per cent to
loo per cent of their present actual market
VJltle.
I. The result of this (nveslle.illnn rnn.r.l
your commLteu (together with nn-ernl other
memners 01 tne Henl Kstntn exchange) to
uppear before the Hoard of Review and
enter 11 protest ug.ilnst the corporation
assessments standing ns tlxed by tho Hoard
of Review, the argument being that the
corpotnttou .tyscrqmrnts were not made
nccordlng to Inw.i nnd furthermore, were
urn iair, just nnti equitanie wnen comparou
with tbu assessments on real estate.
The Hoard of Review listened to tho pro
test of the Real Estate exchange and to
the arguments muile liv real estate owners.
nnd also to arguments mado by ullMals
and attorneys or some of the corporations,
and concluded their deliberations by In
creasing tho as o-seil valuation of live
franchlsed corporations of Omaha from
Jl.SCO.OOO for tho year 1W1 to about Jl,751.ro
for the year UmJ, or a total Increase of
about J2ol.0ei).
it is the judgment of your committee that
this Increase is onlv 11 small nnrt of what
It should huvo been. That tho assessments i t
the rranclilsed corporations are manifestly
unjust when comnurcil with the assess
ments on real estate, and we recommend
that this exchange go before tho city coun
cil when It sits as a board of equalization
and use Its utmost endeavor to secure nn
assessment on the property of the fran
chlsed corporations of Unialia that will be
equitable nnd fair when compared with the
assessed valuation on real estate.

n half ton of coal Is nt her home, waiting to
be sent out to tho destitute. An officer Is
then dispatched, with tho wagon If neces
sary, to bring It in. Tho largo toom on the
south nldo of the station, known as tho de
tectives' room, has been converted Into n
storehouse for tho reception of such goods,
nnd this begins to look like a rummage
salo In a department storo. Long tables are
piled with old clothing of all sorts. Along
ono side of the room extends a double line
of shoes, rubbers nnd overshoes. Nearly
nil of this stuff. I good, nnd somo of It In
tho lino of men's footwear, for example
Is so good ni to Indicate that dome house
wife has been ebarltnblo nt tho risk of her
husband's illsplensure. All of the under
wear is freshly laundered, and the coats,
clonks, enpes nnd mackintoshes nro In a
statu of excellent repair.
Ilmv to Mix 'liiu.
Tho members of tho squad say that, as
they are very busy these dnys, much tlmo
could be snved If the housewives who havo
goods to give out would make them Into
bundles and havo them ready to tnko away
when tho oltlccr calls. Persons having
such goods can mako tho fact known by
calling up the police station, telephono 175
Tho pollco .find on careful Investigation
that ubout ono-thlrd of thoso who apply
for aid are unworthy. Ono of the most
glaring enhoa of this kind was that of a man
on North Twenty-second street. Ho ap
plied for nld, nnd, ns Is usual, nn officer
was sent out to his housn to see If ha
and his family were In actual
want. it was found that tho fam
ily comprised, besides himself, n wlfo and
six children, nil comfortably shed and
clothed; there was ment In th. larder and
ronl In tho bin, while In the stable In tho
rear of tho house were four horses In good
condition nnd In a shed adjoining woro two
wagons. Tho man admitted that tho horsea
and wagons belonged to him. but lidded that
ho would bo better off without them, ns ho
could find nothing for them to do and tho
horses wore "eating tholr heads off." He
wns then offered a Job at a modcrato wago
hauling tupplles to the poor, which ho re
fused. The word "unworthy" now np
pears opponlto his name ou tho list of np
pllcnnts. Another case In striking rontrnst with
this Is that of Mrs. Schulmnn, 601 North
Seventeenth street. Sho Is a widow with
two small children, both seriously 111 with
diphtheria. The officer found her abso
lutely without means of providing medlclno
for tho little sufferers; thero was no food,
no fuel and the woman, herself In poor
hcnlth, wns without shoes. She had inndo
no application for nld, ami the chances aro
tho pollco would not havo known of her
condition bad not the neighbors taken an
Interest In, her rnse. She wns given a
bundlo of clothing, somo provisions and $"
In money.
Chief Donahue says there are probably
hundreds of such cases In the city. "A good
tnnny ouch people" said he, "are too proud
to apply for nld, nnd tho only way we can
learn of them Is through tho neighbors.
And these, too, arc usually tho most worthy
cases that como ttndor dur notice."
City Clinrltlr Acllt ,
Dean Cnmpbcll Fair, nt tho head of tho
City Chnrltles, 501 South Eighteenth street,
said: "We nsk tho poor nil over Omahn to
send us their nnmcs and addresses; they
will bo nt onco Investigated nnd if worthy
will bo relieved cheerfully, quietly nnd prl
vatoly. We nsk tho rich family or well-to-do
fnmtly to take one of these families
nnd relieve It with a gift of Christmas
cheer. We want to bring rich nnd poor to
gether that thoy may boo nnd know each
other. Tho charitable can be their own al
moners. "Tho City Charities havo over 100 families
to be relieved In this quiet, private, friendly
wny. Tho First Congregational church has
done wisely nnd kindly In offering to tnko
caro of two families during the winter nnd
two families hao been gratefully assigned
to It. Trinity cathedral has taken Its shnre.
If every other church In the city will thus
assist tho problem Is solved."
GIVE THE JOBBERS A FRIGHT
l'robnblr Incrrnse In Freight llnlrs
Jlny Cnteli Tlirm In finoil
Mi ape.
A number of Omahn Jobbers nre with
anxiety wntchlng the lllght of tlmo between
now nnd Jnnunry 1 nnd nro making tho most
strenuous efforts to get goods dellvored
from the factories before that tlmo. Tho
reason for this Is the condition of freight
rates between eastern points nnd Omnh.i.
For some time thero havo been rumors to
tho effoct that the roads between Omaha
and Chicago were surreptitiously cutting
rates, but nny Inquiry met with absolute
denlnl on the part of nil ofllclnls Inter
ested. A few dnys ngo n story enme from Chi
cago nnnounclng that tho Chicago-Denver
rate on carloads had been cut by all rnnds,
and slnco that tlmo It has been ascertained
that not only then, but previously, thu
Chicago-Omaha into hnd been Ignored by
the roads In their effort to secure business
At the present time tho Inttcr rnto Is said
to be about two-thirds of the former rate.
As a result of this condition n considerable
amount of goods Is being sold delivered nt
Omnh.i cheaper than It hns been quoted In
many mouths. This In particularly true of
heavy articles, such ns wire, nails and
hardwnre, which nro delivered tirctnll deal
ers In cnrlots. With tho -lecllno In the
prlco at Omaha came n great Increase In
orders. Local Jobbers, apparently regurd
less of consequences, began to tako orders
on every hand. The mills wero drnwn upon
for vnst quantities of their product, much
of which, under ordlnnry clrcumstnnces,
would not havo been sold until March or
April. Several Omaha houses have now on
their books orders aggregating front 100
to 200 carloads of goods for Immediate de
livery. No.v comes disquieting news. While noth
ing official is given out each largo shipper
has received a tip that on January 1 rate-)
aro to bo restored. This tip linn been given
out before when nothing came of It, but
nt other times it has been true. The alarm
ing feature to Omahn Jobbers Is seen when
It Is learned that tho dlffcrenco In the rato
ou carlots botween tho present and what It
will bo nfter restoration will moro than
consumo anticipated profits on tho orders
and that the Jobbers nre beginning to look
forward to the tlmo when each ear delivered
will represent nn Item on the expense nc
count. Tho Jobbers stand to make back
part of their losnes, even If they should
have placed largo quantities of Roods In
stock, nnd on these goods tho difference In
tho freight rates goes to swell the profits,
thero being no reduction In prlco on quan
tities less than carlots.

MEANING OF STATUTE NOW IN DISPUTE
tlurxtlon of Availability nt ruiiil and
.eeesslty of (iirluu for III u
Otrrlap Debated hy
tlip Member.
Tho finance committee of the school board
with other members of thnt organlzntlou aro
discussing a proposition of considerable In
terest to the general public. Section 21 of
tho law governing school boards of cities
of tho metropolitan class provides thnt dur
ing tho month of January of each year the
board shall estimate the resources likely to
be derived from lines, licenses nnd other
sources nnd shall then report to tho city
council tho number. of mills tax required to
run tho schools dining the ensuing fiscal
year. Tho fiscal year of school boards In
titles of tho metropolitan class Is not fixed
by the statute, but the Omaha hoard hns
established that yenr from July 1 to Juno 30.
Inclusive. According to the strict letter of
tho law. which several of the members will
Insist upon enforcing, tho board can use
none of tho money raised from the tax, fines
nnd licenses paid for tho yenr 1902 until the
beginning of tho ensuing llscnl year, which
docs not begin until July.
At tho Inst meeting of tho bonrd It was
understood thnt certain funds which by lnw
nre required to be augmented each year
would receive as the deposits for 1901 a
part of tho money accruing from tnxes, lines
nnd licenses derived between Jnnunry 1 nnd
Junu 30, It being nrgued that tho Ilscnl year
of 1901, closing at the Intter time, tho appro.
prlation would be legal. In the discussion
which has taken placo between the members
slnco the meeting of the board It has been
urged by somo that tho law should bo
btrlctly enforced, nnd to meet thnt nrgtl
ment friends of the other Idea havo ad
vanced a proposition Intended to bring tho
bonrd straight with the world. This propo
sition contemplates asking for n suillclent
levy not only to run tho schools front Jnnu
ary 1, 1902. to December of that year, one-
hnlf of two fiscal years, but of making the
levy lnrge enough to pay expenses until
June :i0. 1903. nfter which tlmo the nnnunl
lovy would bo suillclent to curry thu schools
until tho succeeding Ilscnl year, which be
gins six months nfter tho levy has been
made. Other members of the board In tho
Interest of a low levy this year advocate the
Idea of calling for n levy suillclent to pay
expenses only until June 30. 1902, 1 period
or six months, and making the annual levy
In succeeding years care for expenses In
curred during hIx months preceding tho
lovy nnd In the followicg six months. This,
It Is clnlmed by other members, would bo
ns bad ns tho present system of anticipating
the revenues and would have tho additional
bad feature of Increasing expenses through
the pnymcnt of Interest on warrants not
paid for want of funds.
At the present time tho committee nnd
members of the bonrd who havo been con
sulted havo arrived at no solution of tho
problem.

ceiving Inquiries from nil parts of the stato

somo of theso Inquiries there nro Intima
tions that the defeat of Mr. Kohl was a
blow aimed at tho leadership of Mr. llrynn.
"The club would like to havo It under

nctlon In tho caso of Xlr. Kohl wns not
aimed nt Mr. Dryan or nt nnyono else. Mr.
Kohl Is a good fellow, and so is Judgo Win
terstcen. Tho tiuroo of tho former was
placed ou tho ticket without consulting
with him and It was believed that there

friends of Judge Wlntersteen started u

Tho committee on entertainment of the

will be n meeting of the full cojumlttcu to
