i ' a Ther 1ft" lah.
At the largest meeting ever held' by th
Retail IJquor Dealers" association at their
hall lri the Continental block last night tho
following resolution was unanimously
passed and signed by all the memberj
present:
At the special meeting of Omaha Retail
Liquor Dealers' association held August
14 a resolution wa pissed Instructing the
secretary to notify the It-trtenders un on
of Omaha, No. J4, through Its secretary,
to take down all tho union br signs now
posted In the saloons operated by our niem-
Ders. You are advlseu to act accord. nsly
and deliver such signs on demand of the
J officers of aald bartenders' union.
A postal card bearing a copy ot the reso
lution was mailed to every saloon keeper In
Omaha last night after the meeting.
'J The officers of the Saloon Keepers' asso-
. elation assert that the resolution Is the. re-
i suit of the refusal of the Eartenders' union
to treat with them as an association whon
difficulties which require adjustment be
tween the union and the Individual tnem-
1 bers of the association arise. The union
has stated emphatically, so the saloon
keepers claim, that It will treat only with
" individual members of the association
when questions pertaining to the employ
ment of Its members arise.
Not Slap at I'nloo.
The statement Is also made that the move
Is not a slap at the association of the bar
tenders, but Is done In the Interest of the
saloon keepers, as they consider the signs
which now hnng In most of the union sa
loons as detrimental to the business of the
owners and It Is for this reason that they
desire their removal. The bartenders will
be allowed to continue wearing their union
buttons and no attack will be made upon
the organisation as It now exists, iv is
'sold that there are now upward of fifty
union saloons running In this city which
"do not display tho union signs.
Of the 230 saloon keepers in this city ?2
belong to the Retail Liquor Dealers' asso-
' elation.
When asked If the Business Men's asso
ciation had anything to do with tho fram
ing of the resolution which was passed
last night, the officers of the association
, stated that their organization was In no
way affiliated with the business men's or
ganisation and that that association had
nothing Whatever to do with the paeage of
the resolution.
MUSICIANS APPEAL TO BATES
"t'nlon Bands Ask Deportment Com-
maader to Intercede for
Them.
While General Bates, commander of the
Department of the Missouri, was in the
city this week the Omuha Musicians' union
filed with him a request which, if granted,
will. In the opinion of the union, have con
siderable effect In reducing the competi
tion between the Twenty-second regiment
band at Fort Crook and the civilian mu
sicians of the city.
'" The petition recites that the members ot
the' union are musicians of the city who
depend upon their profession for a liveli
hood, and the competition of the military
bands tends to make their work less car-
. tain; that It Is currently reported that
,upon at least one occasion the military
band has accepted engagements for less
than the current wages of musicians in
-the city in spite of an order of the secre-
' tary of war which was recently Issued
forbidding these bands to work for less
' than the current wages In the town near
est the poet The petition, therefore, asks
that the bandmaster, ar whoever makes
the engagement, be required to pay to the
regimental fund the percentage of receipts
' from engagements now required upon the
' basis of the current rate of wages In the
' town nearest the post and not upon what
the band may actually receive. lie Is also
asked to construe a certain order Issued
by him forbidding the band to accept more
than one engagement at one time.
1 ' Speaking of this a member of the union
ad:
"We do not object to competition where
' the competitors are like ourselves de
' pendent fTpon engagements to live but we
do object to military bands, whose receipts
from civil engagements are all profit, mak
Ing prices lower than we can afford to. If
they make the same price we have no ob
' Jectlon, for we can deliver better mualc.
The secretary of war already has specified
that they must not cut rates, but we have
, it on good authority that they have done
, , so. A certain per cent of the receipts of
.,, the band must be paid Into the regiments'.
,., fund, and as I understand It, this percent
,.. age Is high, so that If the regimental offi
cers will but assume that the bandmaster
has not violated the rule of the secretary
of war and levies hla percentage upon the
- ''current scale, the bandmaster wilt not be
so much Inclined to cut prices, si ho not
'- only will get a lower price for his men,
but will be compelled to pay a much larger
part of the actual receipts Into the regi
mental treasury. This will be something
the privates of the band will seriously ob
ject to, and we may thus be able to reduce
' unfair competition.
: "As to the other request, we find that
General Bates has Irsued an ordr Umlt
7 Ing the number of engagements the band
' can accept. Borne of the officers at Fort
' Crook say that the Intention Is to limit the
" band to accepting an engagement for not
' more than one day, while others maintain
For three generations,
or three-quarters of a
century, the name

mark guarantees these

All responsible Jcwelc-t
keep Gotham
Eilvcrr-arg
' (TIMING B
that the order relates ta one engagement
of any number of days. This latter idea
has been the one adopted, for the band his
been out several days at a time mid we
want to know exactly what the general
means."
OMAHA VIEW IMPROVERS
Clah Arranges for New Tnrlc and
Statee lis Position on Street
LlHiilinff.
The Omaha View Improvement club held
Its regular weekly meeting last night with
a big attendance present. The committee
on entertainment submitted its report on
the recent socinl given by tho club, which
was approved and placrd on file.
The committee on water supply reported
that the foundations for a watering trough
are being laid at Thirty-second and Maple
streets and that the trough would soon be
in operation.
The matter of a street crossing on Ma
ple street between Thlrty-tnird and Thirty
fourth streets was discussed and referred
to the streets and sidewalks committee for
Immediate action.
The park committee reported In reference
to the proposed park matter, and that It
had recently had a conference with Mr.
Reed. He stated to the committee that
tho property Is not at present for sale, but
that he would lease it to the city for ten
years for park purposes without cost. This
Includes the thlry-acre timbered tract near
Prospect Hill and the two-acre strip on
Parker street. The committee held that
the land Is not good for any other purpose
and will always be devoted for park pur
poses. Thn committee recommended that
the club get out n big list of petitions at
once to induce the city to accept Mr. Reed's
proposition nnd hnve the :!ame presented
to the city round!. The recommendations
of the committee were unanimously adopted
and the committee directed to prepare the
form of petitions and have the same sub
mitted to the next meeting of the club It
was held that the expense of Improving the
proposed park will be but nominal and that
the Prospect Hill Improvement club Is In
hearty accord with the park movement.
Mr. Davis was elected a permanent dele
gate to tho Central Improvement League
of Clubs to fill a vacancy.
The question of street lights and the pro
posal of the new electric light company to
contrart with the city for a ten years'
franchise was discussed, and the consensus
of opinion was adverse to the. city entering
Into such a contract for fear that such a
contract would shut out the gas company,
nnd thtis render It difficult to secure gas
for cooking and heating purposes should
such a contract be let, and that It might
militate against the further extension of
gas lighting In tho city, especially In the
suburban districts.
Miscellaneous Street, sldwalk and street
crossing matters were discussed, but were
referred to the respective committees for
discretionary action.

LOOKS FOR QUIET "MEETING

Republican Stat Convention at
Lincoln Next Week.
Judge Aaron Wall, a member of the late
senate from Sherman county, was here
Friday on business. The senator will attend
the state republican convention at Lincoln
next week, but stated that he did nut' ex
pect much excitement there.
"I think we will have a quiet and a har.
monlous meeting," he said. "I have thought
very little about a platform, but am sure
It will be such that every republican nnd
every one else can support loyally. I have
heard several names mentioned for candi
dates for regents of the state university.
Among them are Attorney Allen of Lin
coln, ex-State Senator Curry from Custer
county. Representative Spurlock, Judge
Barton from Pawnee and I understand
there are others. I have heard very little
talk as to who will be the chairman of the
state centrul committee, but I understand
Harry Undsey will again be offered the
place.

AFFAIRS AT SOuTlI OMAHA
Big Range Cattle Ram Not Expected to
Begin Until Twenty Vij '
G000 SHEEP SHIPMENTS PREDICTED
Ifus. Shipments Are Heary, bat Kot
Quite Ip to Those tot Corre
spondlasT Period of Last
Vear.
Advices from the west to live stock com
mission dealers here are to the effect that
the big runs of range cattlo will not begin
for about twenty days A few shipments
of feeders have been mnde, but the buyers
are still busy on their farms, and so ranch
men are holding off. It Is asserted that
grass cattle ate doing nicely and that It
may be about the second week In Sep
tember before the heaviest shipments are
received here. ' Good grades of stockers
and feeders have commanded strong prices
all the week, but commission men say that
on medium and common stock the demand
Is Indifferent. Dtiycrs say they are holding
back to see how the corn crop will turn
out before going into the winter feeding
business very extensively. On beef steers
the market for the year was topped when
a bunch from the west brought $5.40. This
shipment consisted of forty-six head and
the average weight was l.&M pounds.
Heavy shipments of hogs from Iowa are
looked for a little later. So far this year
1.B53.1M head of hogs have been yarded
here. For the five days of this week the
receipts have been 3i.fi3 head, which Is an
Increase over the five days of last week,
but hardly up to the record made for the
corresponding period last year. There Is
now a decrease In hog shipments, as com
pared with a year ago, of S4.197. head.
Llvo stock dealers predict that this deficit
will be made up before long and that there
will be plenty of hogs of good grade on
this market. Sheep receipts this week
numbered 38.510 head, but yesterday
scarcely enough sheep arrived to make a
market. Traveling representatives of live
stock dealers predict that the coming week
will be a big one In the sheep Hue. '
ervlna- gqnatter Notices.
At the request of City Attorney Murdoek
a number of printed notices have been
prepared ordering squatters off public
streets and alleys. City Engineer Beal
has been asked to preparo a list of the
squatters, but as he has done this so many
times In the past, he knows every location.
It Is the Intention now to have the city
engineer and P. A Barrett, the city claim
agent, drive about the city and serve the
notices. Barrett Is a special policeman and
will serve the notices and make a return
to the mayor and city council. Just how
soon these notices can be served Is not
known, as Mr. Barrett Is confined to his
home with a severe attack of rheumatism.
By the serving of these notices the city
attorney expects to prevent squatters from
acquiring title to any of the city streets
or alleys.
Sonthern Crops Good.
R. A. Carpenter, for four years city clerk
of Bouth Omaha, but now tne of the trav
eling representatives of the Hammond
Packing company, spent Friday lr. life city
with relatives. Mr. Carpenter has Just re
turned from a trip covering a large portion
of the south. He Is now enroute to his
headquarters at Butte, Mont. In speaking
of conditions In the south Mr. Carpenter
said that the corn and cotton crops would
be considerably above tho average, and
especially so as compared with last year.
As for cattle, he said that stock all looked
to be In first-class condition.
Rev. W. D. Stambaua-h Arrives.
Rev. W. D. Stambaugh, former pastor of
the Methodist Episcopal church at Spring,
field, Neb., has arrived :n the city to take
charge of the Letter Memorial Methodist
Episcopal church In Albrlgnt. This church
Is located at Fifteenth and Madison streets.
Rev. Stambaugh will preach at his churoh
on Sunday evening at t o'clock, and also
on each Sunday evening following. He
also temporarily supplies the pulpit at Mc
Cabe church, Fortieth and Farnam streets,
Omaha, A new church directory of both
of these churches Is being prepared by Rev.
Mr. Stambaugh and will be issued about
the middle of September.
Beal getting; Stakes.
City Engineer Beal is Itept on the Jump
these days setting stakes for permanent
sidewalks. Whore the grade has been es
tablished permanent sidewalks must be laid
as soon as the present walks are worn out.
In many Instances property owners nre not
waiting for cfflclnl notices to lay walks, but
are urging the engineer to get around and
set stakes so that walks may bo laid while
the weather Is good.

j under the plan of uniformity which has
been settled upon within tho last two
months.
j By making the plan of education In the
I district Kthools of Douglas county uniform,
I this county will cut away from the at
tempt to bring about stute uniformity,
which has 'been attempted by tho state
superintendent of education for a number
of years. Tho plan was adopted for tho
reason that it has been found difficult for
all cf the teachers of the county to under
stand the state scheme alike, and while
all teachers were supposed to be working
under that plan the results were anything
but uniform. So far did the divergence
of opinion extend as to the meaning of th
Instructions sent from Lincoln that ex
amination questions prepared by the county
superintendent in harmony with his Idea
of tho state scheme could not bo used by
a large number of the teachers of tho
county, who were compelled, under per
mission ivom the county superintendent, to
prepare questions j'or their schools differ
ent from those submitted by him. A great
deal of this dlveral'.y of opinion was due
to the fjet tltut the text nooks varied with
the district and it wa round impossible ti
keep tlie pupils in a relative course of
study In the same nominal grades.
Hope (or tnllu iu tirades.
It Is believed that with county uniformity
of text Looks and uniformity of course of
tuU, winch la now being prepured by a
pec.al coinuikieo, togethor with tho fra
il Jem giUierings of teachers of the county
lor ciisuUation, tliut county unllurmity of
grade will be attained lit a practical man
ner.

Proposition to r.stiibllih Branch High
Schools Reopened by Direc
tor rrrmak,
Another fight Is promised In the school
heard ov?r the establishment of branch
hlRh schools. Director Ccrmak started the
ball rolling at the last meeting by 0 reso
lution providing that a teaeher be located
at the Comenlus rchool on Fifteenth street
near William to Instinct pupl's In the
studies embraced by the two-year high
school courso, commercial nnd Englhih
cf.urses. It wns referred to the committee
on teachers nud examinations. Now It Is
reported that tho committee will bring in
a favorable recommendation at the next
meeting.
The reopening of this question, which was
discussed before, is not at all to the liking
of part of the board, and It Is doubtful
whether the proposition can get anything
like enough votes to carry It through.
