Councilman Loteck received a rude shook
last nlisht in the treatment accorded to
the revolution which he believed would fur
nish a satisfactory settlement of the
power canal franchise controversy and re
sult In an ordinance that would be satis
factory to all concerned. Instead of being
received by the council as the only true
solution of the difficulty the resolution met
with opposition from all side. Member
of the council who fsvor the ordinance as
presented by Andrew Rosewater opposed
the resolution In .the belief that it was an
tagonistic to his interests and Councilman
Ilasrall, who has most prominently con
tested the acceptance of Mr. Rose water'!
ordinance, opposed the Lobeck resolution on
the ground that It was framed for the
benefit of Mr. Rosewater. And atln other
members of the council objected to the reso
lution on other grounds.
Joint Committee Is Proposed.
This resolution- provided for the appoint
ment of a Joint cemmlttee to copslst of
three members of' the Commercial club.
three members of (he Real Estata exchange
and three representative citizens to be ap
pointed by the mayor and the plan proposed
was that this Joint committee should frame
an ordinance with due regard for the in
terests of Mr. Rosewater and the Interests
of the citr as well.
As soon as the resolution made Its ap
pearance Mr. Ilasrall entered hi protest
against it, criticising the plan proposed In
most severe terms. He suggested that
whether the resolution had been framed in
the interest of Mr. Rosewater or not It
would In its operation have the effect of
furthering Mr. Rosewater' ends and pur
poses.
Mr. Zlmman, who has thus far manifested
friendly feeling toward the ordinance as
submitted by Mr. Rosewater, declared him-
snlf to be opposed to the resolution for
the reason that the people bad elected nine
men to the city council to represent their
Interests and those men should take the
responsibility of deciding such question a
the one now at issue and should not try
to shift their duty upon the shoulder of
other.
f . As to Pabllo Sentlmeat.
' Then referring to the meeting of the pre-
Tioua evening of which Mr. Hascall had had
a great deal to say In hi remarks, Mr.
Zlmman said: "This was to be a citizens'
meeting and not a Hascall meeting or a
meeting of the Judiciary committee of the
council. .A It was we had practically no
expression from the citizens. Did any rep
resentatlve man of Omaha express any ob
Jectlon to the proposed franchise or has
any citizen of this city at any time gwen
any good reason why thla ordinance should
'Toi be adopted. Ko, I don't think so, but
we; have heard a great deal from resl
dent of other place as to the lmpractt'
cablllty of Mr.- Rosewater' plan. Now, a
to Judge Hascall' proposed amendments,
his restrictions, as he call them, I want to
say that I think we have too many re
strlctlons now and too little enforcement.
We have restrictions In the ordinance
,v governing all : of the ' franchise corpora
. . tlons! but none of them Is observe and the
companies are permitted to do practically
, a they please in spite of us, . ..
Lobeck Dora Not Insist.
' After the resolution had been attacked
i from all' side and the discussion had sub'
. . sided the president asked Mr. Lobeck If he
would' like to speak. He ruefully replied
that he did not see much use of talking.
'What he could not quite understand was
that both those In favor of the ordinance
and those opposed to it should object so
vigorously to-this resolution, but since It
appeared to be so generally unpopular he
' ' ' would not try to force Its adoption. He
wished to say, however, that the measure
was Introduced by htm In good faith.
" The resolution, when put to a vote, was
lost by 6 to 2, Mr. Mount being absent.
The council authorized the city treasurer
'' to sell to Spltzer & Co. of Toledo, at private
sale, the prospective Issue of $200,000 of
' funding bond at a premium of 3,000. These
. bonds, aa first framed to draw Interest at
S per cent, were advertised for sale with
' practically no offers. Then on November
.,. 27, as 4 per cent bonds, they were again
offered, and Fpltzrr & Co. and one other
' firm were the only bidders, the highest pre
mium offered being $200. These bids were
rejected by the city treasurer, who did not
believe they were In good faith, and since
, then. Spltzer at Co. have Increased their
offer to $S,000. ,
Suatalaa Mayor' Veto.
:- The. mayor' veto of a voucher to pay $S,
. 000 lo the clerk of the district court in sat
isfaction of a Judgment in the case of Rich
ardson against the city was sustained. In
his message the mayor stated that be un-
. dsrstood that there was a case now pending
that might have some bearing on thla mat
fef, and he would favor waiting at least
until the court should mandamus the city
officers.
The following funds In the city treasury
were certified by the comptroller:

NO GREASE OR DANGEROUS DRAGS.
In "Herplclde" the New Scientific and
Sacceeatnl Dandrad Treatment.
Have you dandruff? Then you have a
contagious parasite disease, unpleasant, un
healthy and one that will eventually lead
to baldness. To euro It you must destroy
the parasite that eat at the root of the
hair. The only preparation for destroying
these germs is Newbro's Herplclde. Charles
Klein of Laramie, Wyo., ayi: "Herplclde
allayed the Itching, cured the dandruff and
topped my hair' falling out; and It la
bringing a new crop of hair." Herplclde
le free from greaie or dangerous drug,
and make hair glossy and eott a silk.
One bottle will convince you of Its merit."
NEW STREET CAR-SECRETARY
' W. V. Morse to Be Succeeded by R. A.
ICnaaler, from St. Louie Street
Railway.
W. V. Morse will retire from the position
of secretary of the Omaha Street Railway
company and will be succeeded by R. A.
Leussler of St. Louis.
Mr. Leussler," said President Frank
Murphy, "will succeed Mr. Morse In the
office of secretary of the company and will
lo act as accountant. He arrived two
days ago from St. Louis and haa since been
working into hi duties. Mr. Morse will not
immediately retire from his position, but
will continue until Mr. Leussler is ttaor-
ouchlr familiar with the work. The new
secretary and accountant ha been con
nected with the street railway company of
St. Louis tor several years In the rspaclty
of auditor. He came to that city from Chi
cago, but had not prior to that been con
nected with the street car business.' Mr.
Morse will In the future continue to be a
member of the board of director a he ha
formerly been.

Bohemian Turner Preparing te Build Hall
for Their Exclusive Use.
NO REPAIRS IN COUNCIL CHAMBER YET
Rooas la City Hall llnlldln; I Rented
for V'ae of Cavalry Troop Letter
Carriers' Association
, Election.
The Bohemian Turners of South Omaha
are preparing to build a structure to be
devoted entirely to the use of the Turners.
One of the Bohemian lodges owns a lot at
Twentieth and T streets, but It Is proposed
that this lot be sold and the money be put
nto a lot nearer the headquarter of the
Bohemian Turner. There I now over $600
In. the proposed building fund and every
meeting increases the amount. Before the
week Is over It Is expected that there will
be $1,000 In the fund and then arrange
ments will be mad for the sale of tbo
present property and the purchase of a
new site.
Aa there seem to be plenty of money In
Ight, the proposed building look like a
ure go. There will be a stage and rooms
for lodge meeting. The plan have been
approved by the Turner and it I expected
that work will commence shortly after
January 1.
Coaacll Chamber In Bad Way.
Some change In the council chamber are
needed. At the present time the room
where the city father meet look more
like a delaptdated bar room than an execu
tive chamber. Two or three broken chair
are leaning Up against the wall and the
floor corering Is a fit subject for an Inves
tigation by the sanitary Inspector.
Some months ago the council ordered
that the room be cleaned and arrangements
made for seats for visitors. This ha not
been done. It 1 true that the railing ha
been moved a tew feet, but no benches have
been provided for the public and the chair
in use now are In the last stsges of decay.
Members of the committee on buildings as
sert that there Is no money on hand to buy
chair or settee. A proposition to vote
bond tor a city hall building may be placed
before the people in the spring.

THIS IS HOW
Beer That Made
ant McCulloch, who Is In command of the
troop at the present time, has rented a
room in the city hall building, where squad
drills will be held and the school of the
soldier will be worked out. Drills will be
held almost every night in the week. A
medal Is to be offered for the best drilled
man in each of the platoons and It Is ex
pected that this will increase the Interest
In the work.
Howard Still Oat.
While the council allowed the appropria
tion of $50 for November salary for Clark
Howard, who still calls himself city meat
Inspector, the mayor declined to sign the
warrant and Howard is going around look
ing for his money. The mayor says that
Howard did not pretend to inspect the
butcher shops, as he was supposed to do,
and therefore he will not carry him on the
payroll. As far as Mayor Koutsky Is con
cerned the office of city meat Inspector has
been abolished.
Letter Carriers' Aaaorlatlon.
Branch No. (63 of the National Letter
Carriers' association elected the following
officers at a meeting held Monday night:
John F. Flynn, president; Frank O. Spear,
vice president; M. J. Grady, secretary;
Charles Hrdltcka, treasurer; William Man
gan, ergeant-at-arms; F. O. Hagan, W. 8.
Derbyshire and M. A. Martin, trustees.
Thomas Fitzgerald was chosen aa collector
tor the mutual benefit association.
Let Insurance Lapse.
A. M. Uusfhnell of the Swift company, who '
was. killed by a boiler explosion in Chicago,
formerly carried Insurance in two fraternal
lodges In South Omaha. He was a member
of the Royal Arcanum and also of the
Ancient Order of United Workmen. In
each of these he carried $2,000 insurance,
but allowed both to lapse during the month
of July of the present year. Telegrams
sent by friends from here to the Chicago
office of Swift and Company brought some
information, but no detail. It was reported
that Bushnell was in the toilet room ad
joining the boiler house at the time. He
as washing bis hands when the explosion
occurred. Members of local lodges here do
not know whether he carried any eastern
Insurance.
Boy Break Windows.
Pupils In the public schools sre reported
to be guilty of throwing pebbles through
wlndowges In school buildings. Slingshots
are used and In the territory weBt of Q
j street windows In schoolhouses are broken
dally by mischievous boys. An effort is to
be made to atop this practice, as the con
stant breaking of glass Incurs a heavy ex
pense upon the taxpayers. The plan now
is to have officers in citizen's clothes fre
quent the school buildings for the purpose
of arresting those found destroying city
property. Members of the School board
think that if a few arrests are made and the
boy sufficiently punished there will be no
more trouble from this source.
