BESIEGED WITH PROTESTS Coaaty Cemsnlesloaers Hear Choras ef Indlgnaat Appeals Over 1 Plaaablas; Resort. The publication of the special commit tee's report relating to the unsanitary con dition of the poor farm has proven to be a boomerang and the county commissioners were besieged yesterday by cltlsens pro tasting against a continuance of both the methods of letting contracts and the pres ent conditions at the poor farm. 1 Speaking upon the report of the commit tee and the fact that each member thereof had submitted a bill of $300 for his services. Commissioner O'Keeffe thought It an out rage. It was Intimated that unless the present system of bleeding the county ceased soma' one would be up before the grand Jury. The fact that the county had employed a plumber to look after the poor farm has proven particularly galling In view of later developments when it Is shown that the building Is In worse condition now than when the plumber was first employed. The protest against a continuance of ex isting conditions at the county farm is general . and one of the commissioners stated that be wished to absent himself for a time unless some hope Is held out that remedial measures will be taken.

OPPOSED TO SOUTH OMAHA VIADUCT Case for Injuactloas ta Preveat Ex teaaloa of Rtgkt-ef-Way Beta Araaed la District Coart. The effort to block the Union Paclflo rail way's attempt to acquire additional track age facilities and an extension of Its right-of-wsy In South Omaha was the subject for argument before Judge Dloklnson yes terday tn the case of the Swift Packing company against Frank Koutsky, mayor, and the city council of South Omaha. The first opposition to the Union Pacific's project for Increasing its trackage In South Omaha was noted over a month ago, when a restraining order was granted in the case of Magdalena Plvonka against Mayor Frank Koutsky and the city council. In that case it was alleged that the acquisition of the proposed right-of-way and the cross ing of certain streets would work Irre parable Injury to what was alleged to be the principal business section of the city. Following the arguments, a restraining order was granted. And now comes the Swift packing: com pany asking for a temporary Injunction on practically the same grounds set forth tn the Plvonka case. The points of differ ence In -the two cases center about the allegation on the part of the Swift company that the granting of the proposed right-of-way will shut off all means of Ingress and egress to the Swift company's packing houses and that the fire hasard will be augmented to such a degree that it will be practically Impossible for the Bwlft Interest to secure fire Insurance for its extensive holdings In. South Omaha. , It la argued that the streets proposed to be vaoated have no connection with the proposed viaduct, but are several blocks away, and their vacation is ths Inducement or consideration for the agreement to con struct the viaducts. The memoranda fur ther states that: It la not proposed tc vacate these streets because such vacation is in the Interest of the public, but because the donation of the vacated ground Co the railroad company will be aix.ptod by these corporations as a consideration for constructing the viaduct. The question is, "Can the city vacate pub lic streets for the purpose of giving the 5 round to the railroad company as an in u cement to the erection of this viaduct?" it is proposed to give the vacated streets to the railroad company to induce the con struction of the viaduct under considera tion, a few feet of which at the east end will be In a public street of the city, and the whole of the remainder will be upon lh. nrivit. nMn.pl . . I ha., .n.in.i.1.. the west end being upon the property of the stock yards company, with ,00 outlet beyond. There la no public purpose stated In the original petition; that it is for the benefit of -corporations and that the viaduct will be private property. In this connection the attorneys for the plaintiff say that It la true that the com panies ugree to "grant the use" of so much of their ground as Is necessary for the sjpport of the proposed viaduct, but that tn reality the proposed right-of-way would be a grant to these companies and for their own benefit, XUe argumabU la th caaa .stl WONDERFUL COUPON SALE to supply your wants than any other store the best the world produces to choose from.

BACK FROM WESTERN TOUR Federal Good Roads Official Tlews Paclflo from Dotalnlea ta Old Mexlca. Maurice O. Eldridge, assistant director In the office of public road Inquiries of ths United States department of Ariculture, Washington. D. C, is In the city a guest of R. W. Richardson. He has Just re turned from the Paclflo coast, where he has been Inspecting the road system of that section. He attended the state good roads convention at Spokane, Wash. "Samuel W. Hill, son-in-law of J. J. Hill, the railway magnate, was appointed by the convention to go to Washington and work far the - passage of the Brownlow bill," said Mr. Eldridge. "James W. Abbott, a member of congress from Washington, and myself made an ex tensive tour of the Pacific coast from Brit ish Columbia to Old Mexico, taking In the Puget sound country by rail and water. We inspected the straw-built roads of the Palouse region, Washington, as well as the oil roads of southern California. Too much cannot be said of the success of the oil highways of southern California, and I am free to admit that the Inventor of the system . Is as great a benefactor to the world 'as the Inventor of the macadam sys tem of highways. These oil roads are as good, If not better, In many respects, than asphalt. The roadbeds are first built tn the usual way, with a slight central crown to permit the water to run off, of ordinary dirt. The road is then rolled and subse quently harrowed to a depth of two Inches. It Is then sprinkled with water. After a few hours, and before the water has com pletely evaporated, the roadbed Is sprinkled with oil. Band la then laid over this oil sprinkled surface and a 'mixer' run over It, which forces the sand and oil down Into the, roadbed, making a surface Impervious to water and of remarkable durability. The surface becomes hard and compact and : will last for from three to four years with I out additional oil sprinkling. Whatever I dust blows from the adjacent lands be I comes packed onto the oil percolated road and assists tn giving It a finishing surfacs. These roads will sustain all the trafflo In ordinary use In that country. The oil road plan has been adopted In many of the park systems of California cities and Is a pronounced success. The oil road ils certainly a success and I predict that It win imui ine popular Douievara road bed throughout the country as soon as its merits become fully known." . Bay Cared .
