SOME RADICAL REFORMS ARE PROPOSED

the Association, t
Keeps Oat.
. Yesterday momtns's teuton of the United
Association of Plumbers, Gas and Steam
fitters and "team Fitters' Helpers was at
tended by more than 100 delegates and was
jtlven over to the reading of the reports
of the president, the secretary-treasurer
and the auditing committee, which reports
were referred to committees to be re
ported back later for final action. Some
radical changes were recommended and
will have to be given considerable thought
before decided upon.
- In the afternoon the report of the nation
allzatlon committee selected at Buffalo a
7ar ago was read. The plan recom
mended Is almost a revolution in the
association's transactions. Auxiliary Sec
retarr-Treasurer Thomas Burke, once an
Omahaa, it on the committee and will be
oae of the most ardent champions of the
new plan. He has traveled extensively in
the United States and in Europe and mem
bers say that they expect his talk to be one
of especial interest, replete with statistical
Information.
Fly mm Snaaested for President.
Another Omahan is figuring prominently
flaw in an executive way. Thomas Flynn,
present jail custodian, could have the presi
dency of the association, judging from talk
about the hotel, but cannot accept because
of hit present duties at the Jail. He was
elected first vice president two years ago
and fifth vice president a year ago. Mon-
' day commltteei called on him to urge him
to enter the race as a candidate for the
chair, but he had to decline. New Tork
wat with him and he had other delegations
which were against Mm last year, when he
was defeated for the office by only two
Totes. At Monday afternoon's meeting,
after the mayor had spoken, Mr. Flynn was
called on and for five minutes sprayed the
audience with a superior quality of "Jolly."
The election of officers probably will oc
cur Friday.
President Merrick's Snsraestions.
. In bit address President Merrick taid:
At the twelfth convention, held In Buf
falo, a committee on nationalisation was
appointed and empowered to present a
complete beneficial system, based on the
equalisation plan and adapted to the needs
of our rapidly growing organization. I
derlre to call your attention to the report
of this committee, embodying the platform
and system which will be presented to you
.for your most earnest and careful con
sideration. The rapid and large growth
of our association in recent years demon
strates that w have long ego outgrown
the present system and that we should
adopt a complete constitution in line with
the foremost of International unions.
During the past year gratifying progress
has been made by a large number of our
locals eliminating the helper end the es
tablishment of a proper apprentice system.
Ti. ou r.rk ooosmpllshcd should be
given encouragement.
We find that our trade as well as others
has been rapidly branching out Into hith
erto unknown fields, so I would recom
mend that a special committee of five be
appointed to present proper rules govern
ing trade jurisdiction for the considera
tion of this convention.
General Organiser William J. Spencer, In
his report said: "The year has been pro
lino In strikes and industrial turmoil, but
It must be aaid to the credit of the gen
eral labor movement that more successes
have been recorded this year than have
been secured during any other known per
iod in the history of the labor movement"
Spencer comet out flatly on the matter
bf appeals for aid. He said:
Soeneer on' Appeals for Aid.
The frequency with which appeals for aid
are being circulated throughout this coun
try is a subject worthy of consideration at
this convention. Undoubtedly the great
majority of those appeals represent a
worthy cause and are only sent out as a
last resort, in order to properly finance the
dlatresned local during the period of the ex
isting trouble. Nevertheless there are many
locals that take advantage of the generos
ity of sister unions when there is scarcely
occasion for an appeal.
It would appear as though the time had
come when some restriction should be
thrown around this means of rendering
financial aid, for an Increasing number of
appeals is bound to breed general discon
tent In time and there Is already sign of
discontent on that score.
It should be our purpose, too, to minimise
the number of strikes to the relative pro
portion of our financial and moral strength,
thus Insuring ourselves against loss in any
f our ventures and steadily If slowly rais
ing the standard of our trades.
It is my opinion' that the executive board
should be Instructed to sanction no strike
unless the conditions in the district of the
other locals are correspondingly equal to
those of the local that Intends to present
additional demands.
By far the better way would be to repose
the power to order a strike In the hahds of
the board or other authority, so that the
Tf."?Mi h0V" and other conditions of the
adjoining locals could be made to corre
spond as near as possible with one an
? 'L.JF noin- "like could be sanc
tioned that would be out of all accord with
the general prevailing conditions in the
oliclted? U"trtct where "ich approval Is
Mast ria-ht Injunction Abuses.
Whenever we hear of a strike of any
proportion today we may look for a con
sequent resort to the courts by the em
ployers for an Injunction, or, to strip it of
ltJ1"r.Bhn"' a modern restraining order.
T"JboJr """Y'ment will be called upon
to light the privilege of the employer to
Use the courts to protect the scab snd
t defeat the union man before Ion Th.
sue must be met some time, for we are
ly living under a veritable form of
government by Injunction, and I urgently
recommend that the delegates to the next
convention of the Federation of Labor be
Instructed to use every means that ran be
employed to have that body fight the In
junction to the highest court of the land
-J!Jr.iloom re In a flourishing
condition and a gratifying Improvement ha"

In our trades.
'. !. W. Tllden. secretary-treasurer, made
m report which Included the following show
ing: On June 10, which Is ths end of our
fiscal year, we had 14. 7w members, an In

year ago we had 20 local union.; this year
we have !M local unions, which is an In
crease over last year of fifty-nine local
unions.
J Four locals have seceded and Sixteen

ocals their charters have been reissued to

Bide are to be advertised for the con
struction of a four-room addition to Low
ell school. This building It to he of brick
tnd will entail an expenditure of tevertl
thousand dollars. President Miller of the
board says that the addition may be built
for $6,000. This statement does not coin
cide with the ettlmatet of archltecte who
were requested to give offhand estimates.
It la figured that the four rooms will cost
not less than $8,000, and then there will
be the furnishings. These will amount to
not less than $2,000 more, making the total
cost $10,000.
Only a year ago Superintendent McLean
reported to the board that with the build
ing of the Whittler school, across the Bur
lington tracks, there would not be any nel
of any addition to the Lowell school. The
membert of the board, however, seem to
elffer from the riewe of the tuperintendent
tnd have gone ahead and Instructed the
secretary to advertise for bids.
Some lay that the tchool census rerenMv
taken does not warrant the addition of any
rooms to the Lowell tchool, and It may be
that the board may And It to Hi advantage
to refute all bldt when the time comet.
With the rooms now under construction it
is asserted by certain members of the board
that there will be ample room for all pu
pllt without going to the exDensa of build
ing a $10,000 addition to the Lowell tchool.
City Hall Rumors.
' Late yesterday afternoon it wat talked
about the' city hall that membert of the
Taxpayer!' league had selected a man for
the position of street foreman. The re
port was that Mayor Koutsky had con
sented to the appointment of any man the
league might name. All that teems to be
wanted by the mayor and the members
of the league Is a man who is thoroughly
competent to handle the street force and
will not be antagonised by the labor uniont
of South Omaha.
To Prevent Accidents.
Yesterday the Cudahy company and the
Omaha Packing company completed the
erection of an eight-foot fence at the east
ern terminal of their yards. For years
past employes of the companies have been
using the railroad tracks instead of going
to work through the usual route and the
fences. It It taid, will tend in a great meas
ure to prevent accidents. Fences have also
teen built about the Armour railroad yards
ror tne same purpose
New Sanitary Rules.
Inspector Jones and his force of men were
at work yesterday putting up signs regard
ing the dumping of garbage. A One of $10
will be assessed against any person found
dunning garhava nn any vacant W ga
the sandbars. All garbage must be dumped
into tne river. Through the efforts of
Mayor Koutsky and the street and alley
committee a good road to the river it now
opened, and all thote who det!re to dump
garbage have no excuse for not complying
wiia me regulation!.
Repairing; Twenty-Fourth Street,
The men employed by the paving eompany
in making the repairs to the Davement an
Twenty-fourth street are working rapidly

good at in former years and there It a pos-
siDiiity or the work not being accented.

Securing Homesteads.
Fred Dientsbler and a number of Mends
left last night for Chamberlain, S. D., with
the intention of taking up land on the Rota
bud Indian agency. Dr. McCrann and
others have Just returned from the agency,
and they taid that they tecured deelrable

Benl Setting; Stakes.
City Engineer Beal was busy yesterday
letting stakes for permanent sidewalks in
the northern part of the city. Stakes were
tet on the east side of Twenty-six street

A lady customer In our store a few dayt
ago asked our price on a staple patent
medicine, and noting that It was so much
cheaper than any ylace In town, she
wanted two bottles. We told her we would
sell only one bottle at that price to a
customer but would give her or anybody
else any additional quantity at $10 per
dozen which was wholesale. "WELL,"
she said, "I'LL TAKE ONE AND OO
HOME AND CHANGE MY CI.OTHKS

NOW."

Adding capital and surplus together, we have a gross
amount of $22,646,095 banking capital In the State of Nebraska,
and the hanks carry a line of deposits amounting to $73,184,-
870.00. Out of these amounts are loaned $S3,35i,H4.o to cus
tomers, and aa the legal rate It 7 per cent and the going country
rate 10 per cent, the recelpti of the hank from Interest aocount
alone should aggregate $5,000,000.00.
The laws of Nebraska provide with other things for the
regulation of banki, the following:
"Such capital shall be In money, commercial paper, hank
furniture, and the hank building and ground on which tltuated,
which ground shall be unincumbered, but in no case shall the
bank building and ground, together with furniture and fixtures.
exceed In value one-third of the paid-up capital, esse
Every stockholder Is liable for debts accruing during hts owner
ship of stock, for an amount equal to the paid-up value oc the
sharea held, and all shares of stock are assessed in the place
where the hank Is located, whether the owners thereof reside
there or not, and taxes are a Ilea upon tho stock. Every bank
shall keep a 'correct list of names and residences of all stock
holders, with the amount held by esch. for the laspootloa of
stockholders' creditors, and taxing officers."
The capital stock of tho State banks amounted to $7,398,081,
which with their surplus of $1,930,393 gave an l fire gate of $9,-
318,323, of which but one-third could ho Invested la real estate
and fixtures.
Assuming that everyone of the 641 State banki used -up the
legal amount allowed for building, ground and fixtures, it would
still leave them $6,146,649 loanable funds, and county after
county falls to account for any at all.
To cover every contingency of double taxation, let us deduct
from the $23,646,095 capital and surplut of hanks one-third for
possible real estate holding, and there Is a balance of $16,097,
397, money of bankers and broken subject to tax.
In regard to the item of credit! of bankera and brokers, the
fact that the $38,092,430 loaned by National banks cannot he
loaned on real estate or chattel mortgages makes It naturally
belong to this form of credit, it being loaned either oa collateral
or Joint paper.
Of the $24,288,884 loaned by state and private banki. It la no
more than fair to p returns that one-half ct toll amourt tt loaned
on Joint paper or on notes with collateral attached and not on
mortgages, leaving $12,144,442 bank credits In thlt class of loaaa
to be considered.
Thus tt appears that there are $48,336,873 of bank ersdttt la
the State of Nebraska .
Regarding the stocks and bonds which have been returned for
taxation,, there la no way of determining what Is meast by the
returns. The banks of Omaha alone report to hank authorities
that they hold the sum of $3,060,400 la bonds and ttockt, but In
this matter In case these bonds are government bonds or have
been Issued by compsnles owning property In the Stats of Ne
hraska, which Is already taxed. It would not be proper to tax
them again. However, It would appear that If there were any
stocks and bends In tho state, they esrtalsly should amount to
much more than $96,676.
The foregoing figures show great prosperity, and material
wealth and It Is confusing to note ths amount returned for
taxation la tho State Auditor's report.
Ths Auditor's report for 1900 gaw ths following figures as
the amount reported for taxation by ths banking- interests of ths
whole state:
Moneys of hankers aad brokers t. $677,630
Credits of bankers and brokers 367,091
Bonds, stocks and warrants .. ....... ...... 96,676
While this Is a remarkable showing, (hs localisation of these
credits is amusing. Otoe county reports $68,(74 moneys of
bankers and brokers, while Doi-glaa county returns but $9,225,
and Lancaster county but $13,648. It would thus appear that Ne
braska City is the basking center of tho stato, according to ths
amount returned for taxation,
, .
Ths next lteni is fully as rtdtcelous when it la discovered
that Wayne county i sported $37,746 as ths credits of hankers and
brokers, while Douglas county reported hut $4,6$3 sad Lancaster
hut $3,638.
In tho ownership of beads snd ei sad warrants we tnd
Saunders county leads with $1107, while Douglas reported $7t$
snd Lancaster $750.
