T THE OttAftA' DAILY REE! SATURDAY, JUNE lft, 190.' 11 BILL TO PROTECT PAYING Zimitai'a Or J inane Makss All Carson tioni Cars for Sweats, MUST RELAY IN' THE ORIGINAL MATERIAL Measure Katarally Bleats OpoHl, bat President of Coall Will rufc It Tkroath, If i 'Passible. Regarding the ordlnanue Introduced at the council meeting Tuesday night for the purpose of' regulating the disturbance of pavement by franchiied corporations. Pres ident Zimman says; "This meusure Is on that should protect the expensive paving put down In this city and compel the corporations such as the street railway, gas, else trio light and water companies to replace the paving with the same material and in good condition as they found it Thes com panies are constantly making excavations for their pipes, conduits and tracks. Borne of them have grossly abused the privilege and failed to put the paving back In any thing like the condition they found It and In many case have not replaced It at all. With the exception of the street railway company all the corporations have been required to take out permits for every street cut, but the conditions Imposed tiave not been stringent enough to causa them to live up to Uio regulations. Two Tear Bond Exacted. "Under the ordinance which la now pro posed each corporation must file a two year bond of 110,000, guaranteed to pro tect the city agatn.it damage to the pave ment Permltj are to be Issued free and must bo obtained every timo a cut Is made. Then the paving-must be replaced exactly as found within thirty days to the satisfaction of the city engineer. If the woilc la not dona the engineering de partmea: la authorised to go ahead with lt and charge the cost to the corpora tion. If not paid we can be reimbursed by collection on the bond." ' The oMIns-r oe has t been opposed by the street railway company. At first an or dinance specifying this company alone waa prepared, but some of the council men declared they would not vote for it until all the publlo utility corporations had been placed under it. This has been done, but there Is still a fight on the measure, which was laid over under the rules for consideration next week. The Board of Publlo Works, with City Engineer Rosewater and City Comptroller Lobeck present has Just met and decided the only feasible way to get th council to act on the asphalt paving repair plant is for the city engineer to visit Winnipeg and ther cities where ouch municipal plants are maintained and submit hia find ings. Mr. Lobeck and Mr Roirewater will try to Induce the city council to agree to the expense of this tour DR. KERR ADDRESSES OMAHA Writes Letter ' Concerning BelUne College and Why He BcalgMil the Presldeney. BELLEVUE, June 17.-T the Editor of ' The Bee; I wish to say a tew words to the people of Omaha and Nebraska about Bellevue. college. I have decided to leave tha college because a wider field has opened to me just at a time whnt my health de mands that I should have lighter work If possible. Westminster college, to which I am going, promises much less work as to details and much Jess burden as to finances, because it now has mora than 1200,000 endowment My decision was made mors willingly because I was not In harmony with the majority of tha -executive committee. This difference was one of methods of finance. I had faith to make Bellevue college one of tha best colleges of tha west. It is one of the best. The courses' of stud are reckoned as equal to those of tha stst) university in the Judgment of the state superintendent. I believed a first-class college would com mand the funds . needed. We lost a building by fir two years ago. In rebuilding, the aocessortea created a debt of ID OCA This is the debt now. With all the efforts of Dr. Stevenson and myself we were no able to cancel this dob: the pant year. Tha executive committee and I agreed that retrenchment ahould be made, but whilst I was anxious to retrench largely, they wanted to retrench so much ss to Ignore my wishes and as In my Judgment would cripple the growth and advance of the eolleoa. Besides, their methods seemed to ma to be Increasing expenses. They now have tha responsi bility and I hop that their plans will bring a still larger success to tha college, which has always had a great aaccees. Whilst I have this hops I was not willing to re main and share tha rlsks. ' Paring my connection -with the college I have seen tha Income from studenta' fees and property Increase from $1,000 to $30,000 and have secured funds outside of Na hraska amounting to $140,000, of which $90,000 has been Invested In buildings. I love Bellevue college mora than I leva my life. I have made great sacrifice for the college and for the aake of harmony. I wish every friend I have to be actively friendly to the college and Its administra tion. I am not unfriendly to anyone, nor do I believe anyone la personally unfriendly to me. Anything which has been aald to tha contrary Is untrue. If any friends are disappointed let them quickly put It aside. Omaha and Nebraska may be as proud of Bellevue college as of any Institution In the atata, and ought to ahow It aa much Interest and render It as larga help. I plead that a large and enthusiastlo sup port may be given Bellerua college. It deserves It In every war. DAVID R. KERR MAHANNA LIVES IN NEBRASKA Will Hot, Reside la East, as at first Stated, After Hie Reels; aatloau H. C.
