To the Editor of The Bee: In last Monday's Be "A Taxpayer for thirty years" writing under date of May !L apparently objects to tbe city coun cil appropriating 12,600 for Illuminating the buslue&s streets during the Ak-Sar-Ben festrdtles and asks if it is cot a large sum to be wrung from the laboring classes who receive co benefit whatever In answer I will say. that it la a merchants' boom Just as much as it Is a boom for every resident of every prop erty owner in the city. Tbl csuie is liber ally subscribed to, both fcr the street pa rade and for memberships by merchant, railway, gaa and electnct railway com panics, who also pay their proportion of taxea. All property owners and all classes receive a benefit from this boom Just as direct as tbe merchants, the street railway or other like companies. Coming at a Ume whta Omaha most needed their help Ak-Sar-Ben mors than any other attraction baa mads it possible for tbe merchants to use more buildings sod employ mors people to live In houses and consume more goods, again giving em ployment to more people te help pay taxes and so continue In the snaking of a great city. It would cot be unreasonable for the city cocncll to appropriate t&.OOO or more for th use of Ak-Sar-Bea. Now Mr. Taxpayer, stop and thick of what th vaius of your property would be without Ak-Sar-Ben. without the merchant and hit employee. We may assert that Omaha would lack at leatt Ih per cent of our present population and that the other 75 per cent woui receive 25 per cent less la earnings and still find a great lack of steady employment. . In closing I would say to th "Taxpayer for thirty years" should be be Intimate friend or brother, that with hit sentiments ho is cot needed in Ncbrasks and would ti-ggesi th graveyard as a most congenial place for him. If Mr. Taxpayer was slaters why did as not subscribe his owa same? Beepeclfully JtHira. O, B. WILLIAMS. ner by W. S. Harw He shows that SI1RINERS IN A LONG RACE Butrilg from Coast to Coast in Order to Land Tint. COMPETITION GROWS OUT OF PIQUE lansvrrlal rotestate haeffer Desert Hi Temple saa HI Fellow Lala bet om Their Car Aboat It. A race across the continent was cot one of the features contemplated by Sbriner In the east when they made their arrange ment to go to San Francisco, but such a contest it thlt week In active progress just the same. On two special traina, over dif ferent routes, two parties of the famous Lulu temple of Philadelphia are pitted against each, other in an enieavor to be first on tbe golden shore. In order to win. tbe party which passed through Omaha yesterday will make the entire run In eigbty-nlne hours, time unprecedented for delegations. Tbe cause of this notable struggle it also the explanation of the failure of Philip Shaefler of Philidelphia, Imperial potentate. to past througn Omaha yesterday morning, as bad been expected. At tbe last minute Mr. Shaeffer and a score of bis temple fel lows dexided to go west with McGee's im perial special, which started at New York City, carrying several Imperial officials from that state and other Shriners. This special left New Tork last Saturday eight and Shaefler and his party were on It, having run up from Philadelphia. The train took the Baltimore Ohio South western into St. Louis, not going to Chi cago, and the Missouri PaciSc from there to Kansas City. Thence it goes via the Burlington to Denver and over the Denver : Rio Grande westward to a Southern Pa cific connection, which road will land it In Frisco. Other Luis Get Sore. Meanwhile tbe balance of Lulu temple. and by far the larger portion of it, did cot leave Philadelphia till Tuesday last, coming via Chicago and Omaha. Piqued at tbe ac tion of tbelr fellows In deserting them, this band resolved to beat them to 'Frisco de spite their big start. The Chicago & North western and Union Pacific railways were eager to accept the plan, as they, too, would have liked to carry Shaeffer and the rest. and did cot-reliBh their going the other way. So while Shaeffer and party were making long stops at all important cities the other Lulus hustled right through, with the re sult that at the Missouri river the two are on an equal basis, and that if each carries out its present program tbe Omaha party will be considerably in the lead at the Rocky mountains. S. A. Hutchinson, general excursion agent of the Chicago & Northwestern railway, was in charge of the Lulus who came through yesterday When tbe special pulled In at 10:10 a. m Mr. Hutchinson said: "Now we'll etay here Juet fifteen minutes. and then hustle on to Salt Lake City. We'll beat those other Lulus Into 'Frisco twenty four hours, and we will make the entire Journey from Philadelphia in Just eighty- cine hours. That meant aome phenomenal running from here on. for we are cone too far up on that fast a tchedule cow." Well Pleased with Prospect. Mr. Hutchinson is well known in Omaha, having lived here at assistant general pas senger agent of the Union Pacific railway. His train yesterday comprised four cars ind It was pulled by one of the monster engines. "'That animal will take us along all tight," said Mr. Hutchinson. "We can do tricks with time with such a locomotive, and the men have orders to cut loose." Like all tbe Shricers that have preceded them, the Lulus are Jolly good fellows. During their brief stay here they were regaled with claret punch at fast at they could drink it. Thers were fifty of tbe Shricers in the party, besides a great many women. The local men who met them at tbe station were: W. S. Wedge, H. Hardy, Alfred Oleson, Gustav Anderson, M. A. Hall. B. E. Wilcox. W. B. Woodman, F. S. Brownlee. W. 8. Summers, E. Haney, Cadet Taylor. There was cot enough time to suit either party, but that only made things the Jollier. CASES IN SJJPREME COURT Larsje Somber Arerwrd aad Sobmftted and Lons; Uit of Actions Dismissed.

Tbe county assessors will complete their work on June 10 and turn In reports, while tbe city assessment under Tax Commissioner Fitzgerald will not be finished until June 15. Tbe county assessors will make a di rect report to tbe clerk and the county commissioners, while the city assessors will submit a statement to the mayor, council and a board of review. Under the charter the mayor and the treasurer each has the right to appoint one member of the board of review and the tax commissioner makes the third member. At soon at the city assessment is com pleted tbe board of review will meet and equalise the assessment. Treasurer Howe has not signified his preference for any person on the board and as far as known Mayor Koutsky has not done so. The board will consider the assessment of Indi viduals, receive and act upon complaints and will have tbe authority to make any changes deemed necessary. When the final action of ths board is made the tax books for the city will be made up and then when the total valuation It an nounced the levy will be made. At for the valuation, that is mere conjecture, at until the figuret are turned in even the tax commissioner himself cannot tell what tbe total will be. It it hoped, however, that the valuation this year will be larger than it hat been in tbe past in order that the levy may be reduced. Id a few days the assessors will be In a petition to give figures and then comptri tont may be made. Want (bemlral Engine. While at tbe present time the city fire fund it depleted and the fire Cghtert will have to go without money for a month or to, there will soon be a fund to draw from and then some recommendations for im provements In the service will be made. In the first place Chief Etter wants some new hose. As boss is badly needed the council will doubtless grant the request. Then the chief will ask, or rather suggest, that the city purchase a chemical engine. This engine, he says, could be stationed at No. 1 fire hall and make runs to gasoline store explosions, etc., and do a great deal of work now left to the heavier apparatus of the department. While the levy as per mitted by charter is cot sufficient to main tain the department as it cow is, some think that the finance committe can find some way to secure the needed improve ments. Preparing; for Pnpll. President Miller of the Board cf Educa tion said yesterday that tbe two rooms to be built as an addition to Hawthorne school would do away with a number of rented rooms in tbe eastern portion of the city and would give a great deal better satisfaction to all concerned. It It esti mated that tbe two rooms, which will be constructed on the rear of the present building, will cost about 14,000. With tbe furnishing! the cost may run at high as $j,0it. However, there is money on hand to pay for the sddition, aa at the present tims the district is in fairly good shape financially. Tbere is some talk of one or two addi tional rooms at Lowell school, but Presi dent Miller and some of tbe other mem bers of the board do cot tbtnk that lbe expenditure is warranted at this time. An effort will be made to have the new rooms at Hawthorne ready for occupancy ly the time school opens in the fall. Continuing; Improvement. Officials of tbe Nebraska Telephone com pany were in tbe city yesterday making place for tbe construction of a cumber of additional cables. It is tbe intention of the company to place all of tbe principal lines in the business part of the city in cables this summer. These catlos will also be extended so ss to take in quite a por tion of the residence districts. It is re ported that for the improvements under contemplation ' the company will spend something like Td,(K0 for material and labor. At tbe present tims a number of linemen are working on tbe rabies already in course cf construction. Tbe Idea Is to do sway as much as possible wit'j over head wires and thus give be. ter service In cae of storms. Waltlnst for Material.

Inquiry at the packing bouses yesterday afternoon brought forth the information that few men were idle at this time. On of tbe heads of an important department at Armour's said that a good man wat never turned away. He did tay, however, that a few "aoldlen" were refused employment every day or so. By that he meant men who work a day or two and are dilatory and do col earn their money. The same expression was made by those in authority st the other packing houses. Tbere it. it is stated.

GREAT WORK OF RAILROADS Jai r J. Hill Places It IVext to Ag riculture In Commercial Ex pansion of Cenntry. CHICAGO, June 6 One of the largest and most enthusiastic gatherings ever assembled in the main banquet hall of tbe Auditor ium was present tonight at a dinner of the Illinois Manufacturers' association. James J. Hill, president of the Great Northern railway, was the orator of the occsslon and he closely held the attention of the sssoclation's 400 gueats. Hit subject was, "Commercial Expansion," the banquet be ing in the nature of a celebration of the prosperity pointed to by the organization as a result of an expansion pollry. Special significance wat given to the topic because "Commercial Expansion, wat the keynote of resolutiont adopted by tbe Illinoie manufacturer! and wired to presi dent McKlnley at a time when tbe national government was said to be hesitating and In doubt as to what policy to pursue re garding the new Island accessiont. kt.

In a country as large as ours, carrying an enormous 'undertaking, large amount of capital are necessary and this capital can be more readily f jrnished by corporate ownership than In any other way. The nnlv serious objection to so-called trusts has been the method of creating them, not for the nurtose of manufacturing any par tir-ulur eciTnmodlt v in the first place, but for the purpnee of selling sheave of printed sevuritie which represent nothing more than food and prospective profit to the- consumers. If It Is the desire of the general government through congress to prevent trie grow th of such corporations, tt Li alniii teemed to me that a simple remedy was within ihelr reach. Vnder tne constitutional prmision allowing con gress to regulate commerce between the states all companies desiring to transact business outside of the state in which they are incorjKirated should be held to a Uni term provision of federal law. that they ehmild satisfv a commission tnat their cap Ital stock was actually paid up In cash or in proterty at s faoe valuation, just a the capital or tne national nanas is cerunei iq by the comptroller of the currency. With that simole law the temptation to make companies, for the purpose of selling pros pective profits would be at an end. snd at the same time no legitimate business would suffer.

CANNOT CARRY OUT THEIR DESIRES Confutation Prevents Action Beraais of Lack f Attendance of Those Accessary- to t aat Xecdesl Vote, The Young Men's McKlnley club whlci held Its regular monthly meeting at th Millard hotel Wednesdsy eight, is con fronted by a peculiar difficulty: It Is unable to amend lta own conttltulion. Tbe ob jectionable claute it as follows: "To amend this constitution a two-thirds vote of the club shall be necessary." There was do doubt In tbe mlndt of those at Wednesday night's meeting that "a two thirds vote of those present" was Intended by the drafters Instead of "a two-thirdt vote of the club," but tbe objectionable words are there, and the question cow is, how to get them out. The club has a mem bership of 175. At Wednesday eight's meet ing forty-five were present, which it an average attendance. The meeting wat called to order by tbe president, Frank Crawford. C. J. rhllllps moved to amend the constitution by strik ing out lbe age limit. As the constitution now stands, only republicans between the a gos of 18 and S5 are eligible to member ship, and Mr. Phillips wanted to throw the bars down entirely in this respect by re moving tbe age restriction. He was re minded that if the meeting voted unani mously for It the change could sot be made. H. A. Whipple moved that a com mittee be appointed to re-draft the consti tution, but It was decided that a redrafting would amount to aa amendment. E. M. Martin wanted a committee appointed to suggest changet In the constitution. Dr. H. A. Foster, who helped draft tbe instru ment, said the word "club" In that con- nectiow was a typographical error. H. P. Loavltt was in favor of giving t smoker. thereby getting enough of tbe members out to strike out the word "club." Charles ITltchard thought the fundamental law should be entirely rewritten. John G. Kuhn admitted that he had been secretly gloating over the presence of that word, since he was in favor cf keeping the or ganization a young man's club. However, be thought tt would be possible to get a two-thirds vote of the entire club by send ing to the members double postal cards, re questing a vote by mall. Charles McDonald, the secretary, said tbe entire instrument seemed to have been remodelod and edited by the stenographer who copied It upon a typewriter. Judge Berks said the meeting wat at taching entirely too much Importance to the constitution, and that there teemed to be a disposition to exalt the creature above the creator. Speeches were made along similar lines by I. Zlegler, P. A. Wells, E. C. Hodder and others, and finally, upon motion, the chair appointed a com mittee of five to suggest alterations la tbe constitution, and to report at tbe next meeting. This committee wat appointed: H. A. Fotter, O. S. Erwin. Daniel Riley. S. W. Bmlth and H. A. Wallche. Nelson C. Pratt was called upon to speak, and was greeted by hearty applauie. but at the hour was late he excused himself with a few brief remarks. He felicitated the club upon its choice of a name, saying that the came McKlnley stood for all that is good and great in republicanism. He closed by admonishing the club to uphold the army, rhetber at home or abroad. The chair announced as a topic for dis cussion at the next meeting Senator Hoar's speech ocllvered In tbe senate two weeks ago on tbe subject of ths I'hilipplnet. Kansas Proalnlttonlat Meet.
