Count yt Commissioner Jsmes V. Connolly,
chairman of the board's chiirity committee,
yesterday declared v himself favorable to
the employment of woman to assist In
Investigating cases submitted for county
Id and further declared hlmaelf unfavor
able to ever again assisting tbe police de
partment of Omaha In charitable work
without first having the county's repre
sentative! Investigate each case or st least
having some reputable acquaintance en
dorse the beneficiary J deserving.
His fellow members of th-5 beard now
stand back to see what will happen next.
They say that the Woman's club now has
James P. where It ran very easily get at
blm, as the board has the right to employ
radically as many persons as It desires
for Its charity corps and nothing stands
In tbe way of the commissioner taking tbe
Initial step toward putting Into effect this
plan he has announced himself as favoring.
Woman's C'lnh quirk to Act.
Connolly first committed himself at a
recent meeting of the political and social
science department of tbe Woman's club.
Ha was urging that the club members as
sist the board's charity committee by In
teresting themselves In those rases where
growing evil surrounded the children of
the destitute In such forms as made it
hard for the men of the charity committee
to attempt to give advice. One woman
promptly demanded to know If It wouldn't
be a good Idea for the county to employ
woman as one of Its Investigators and
there was nothing for the commissioner to
do but admit that It would. The women
aw their opportunity to do a great good
t no greater expense than "resolutlng."
o they promptly "resoluted." At least
the philanthropic committee did and sub
mitted to the club as recomendatlon the
proposal that tbe club call upon tbe county
board to regularly employ a woman to do
nothing but Investigate charity cases.
Commissioner Connolly, having expressed
himself as he did yesterday, it will be
up to him to act, his fellow members say,
when the Womsn's club resolution reaches
tbe board, no matter what the politicians
may have to aay. One of tho commissioners
states that should the board do as asked
It would be the first time so far as he
knows that a Nebraska county has regu
larly employed a woman to probe Into
the borne surroundings and conditions of
the destitute. The salary of the man now
employed in such work Is $50 per month.
Last winter there were two men, but later
the force was cut down, leaving but one
besides the county storekeeper.
bats Oat Police Department.
Of the other matter Commissioner Con
nolly said: "Not another pound goes out
of the county store except for cases In
vestigated by the county's employes or
recommended by cltlsens known to us ai
reputable and well Informed. If we haven't
enough Investigators of our own we will
put on more, as the law doesn't limit us
In that matter. Two policemen, I under
stand, havs been commissioned to round up
the city and see where the needy cases
re. Tbe county storekeeper will not ac
cept their report as bis official guide and
not again will we permit charity stores to
go out of the county store for the police
station by the wagon load. Last year th
supplies so furnished amounted to 110,000
In cost and some of It may have gone to
emergency cases which the city is sup
posed to care for at Its own expense. The
city first got, to drawing on us during the
smallpox epidemic, and failed to let up
when the epidemic waa relieved. We won't
let anyone suffer, but hereafter we will
be Mlssourlans and must be shown In every
Instance. As for any. politics there may
be In It, we have fences of our own to
keep In shape."
THE DOCTORS AGREE.
Two Physicians Both Asiree on the
Slew Bcleutiae Dandruff Treatment.
Dr. J. M. Powell of Spokane, Wash., says:
"Herplctde has given good satisfaction in
my family for dandruff."
Dr. W. O. Alban of Walla Walla., Wash.,
ays: "I find Herplctde all that Is claimed
for It as a dandruff cure. I shall prescribe
It." Dandruff Is germ disease and you
can't cure It unless you kill the dandruff
germ; aud you can't do that unless you use
Newbro's Herplctde, the only preparation
In tbe world that destroys the parasites. A
delightful hair dressing; allays Itching In
stantly, makes hair gloaay and soft aa silk.
It Is sure dandruff destroyer.

la Wages.
"We take no stock whatever In tbe re
port that Mr. Harriman la antagonising
President Burl In plan of tbe latter to
settle this strike," said a nromlnent strike
leader In reference to the special dispatch
from New Tork to the effect that President
Burt wss anxious to effect some kind of
terms of settlement, but was opposed by
Mr. Harriman, who was averse to settling
with the strikers. Several representatives
of tbe machinists, boiler mskera and black
smiths expressed similar views to the one
quoted.
"It looks mighty strange," said one,
"that Mr. Harrtman and Mr. Burt would
exchange places on this proposition In so
short lime. It Is notable fact, with us
who have Indisputable evidence, that Pres
ident Burt was the obstinate one and that
Mr. Harriman favored some sort of settle
ment. We also know, as has been published,
that the only steps ever taken looking to
possible settlement the conference be
tween our men end Mr. Burt last Saturday
-were taken at the special request of Mr.
Harriman. Mr. Harriman plainly signified
his desire to have matters straightened up
by requesting that conference. In all Mr.
Harriman'a communications over the en
gine controversy be has manifested an un
mistakable aversion to prolonging this
strike or having It spread to the Southern
Pacific system, as be seems convinced It
will do If he does not withdraw his en
gines from the t'nlon Pacific, as demanded
by us. It looks to us If this story of
Harriman opposing Burt In the tatter's effort
to bring matters to an end Is premedi
tated scheme of throwing us off the track
and giving prestige to President Burt when
he returns to Omaha, no doubt to resume
negotiations with us. There Is no doubt
In our minds tbst It has been decided In
New York to effect settlement If possible
for the protection of the company's inter
ests, but to hold out for compromise Just
as long aa possible. We believe that Is the
program."
No Piecework and More Wages.
Regarding compromise, representatives
of the three crafts were asked what would
be their attitude toward such proposi
tion. The answer was unanimous.
"There will be no compromise. We will
have nothing to do with piecework. That
decision Is Irrevocable. We suppose the
plsn will be to compromise by securing our
agreement to the partial Introduction of
tbe piecework system, and then making
some concessions and . withholding others
on the wage scsls, but If this Is the scheme
It must fall. We will not listen to any
compromise to do piecework."
Asked if they would return to work at
their old rate of pay with tbe understand
ing that piecework waa not to be adopted,
leaders ef the strike said:
"No. Roads all over the country have
been Increasing the wages of their em
ployes since we were locked out snd w
would not agree to go back to work for
the same wsgea we were getting when we
quit. For that matter, President Burt has
given u his word that be wants to pay
just as much as other roads and would not
ask the men to work (or less than they
could get elsewhere. Tbst looks like pretty
good assurance that we would not have to
content ourselves with our old wages."

This decision has an important bearing

If certificates are given to both demo
