CITY AN.D COUNTY OFFICIALS TAKE PART
W. T. drnhnm Contends Conncll's
Plan ( Soallaa Percentages ia
Impracticable and W'oald
Kill Competition.
The county commissioners. President
Zlmman of the city council, County A
sessor, Harry Reed, City Tax Commissioner
Fleming, Assistant City Attorney Herdman
and County -Attorney English had a con
sultation yesterday at the court house
over the protection of the city and county
Interests in the scavenger law tax sales.
Considerable heat, was developed In the
clash of Jdeas. The representatives of the
city were 'present - to support the plan
adopted by the council Tuesday evening
of a- sliding percentage to be bid by the
government to protect its Interests. V.
T. Gjraham, who was present, contended
the Idea was Impracticable, as it would
km competition and leave a great amount
of property on the. hands of the city. The
council had announced the scale to be bid
was 40 per cent on 1100, 60 per cent up to
$500, -eo per cent up to $1,000, 70 per cent up
to $2,60, and 76 per cent above that figure
on the assessed valuation.
Mr. Graham said whjlo Mr. Fleming was
one of . the best commissioners the city
had ever Ijad, he had made some 'mis
takes. In assessing .vajue. He cited, cases
where lots were assessed at twice the
price for which they recently had sold. In
such , cases the city, by following the per
cent scale, would pay much more than the
lots were worth.' He saldt
"If the real estate' men knew In advance
the percentages mentioned must be allowed
for Ire bidding, they would not touch the
properties." ' '
Bald Mr. Oraham: "Bonding companies
do not often go above 40 per cent of the
value' where the ' transaction is of a
friendly nature. That per cent would be
much hardes to reach in a tax suit where
only a tat title was gained with chances
of depreciation and other draw backs."
Some Other Ideas,
Mr. Oraham thought In place' of a fixed
ratio the city and -county officials should
be present and In a case where the taxes
would be lost, then they should bid what
was necessary to. protest. rthe .Interests of
the public. '' '"' .v W," ' " r
It5'.aaid- wTiat th cfty and county
Would do if they became possessed of a
-large amount of property under these
'ratios. Mr. Herdman thought' the proper
ties need no be' taxed, out In reply the
argument was advanced by Messrs. Gra
ham and T, P.. Havens that the scavenger
law had been designed to clean up these
old tax Hens" and by sale. If in no other
liway, put the land in hands from which
taxes could be rained. If the city and
: county became- possessed of these lands to
:a considerable- extent the-property would
not be taxable and the idea of the law
woufU be to- a certain extent defeated.
. Mr. Zlmman thought the percentages
named by the council had perhaps been
oo high on county property,, but held they
were all -right for city lots,
i The meeting adjourned without adopting
any policy or- without naming any persons
to represent the government st the sales.

CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
Ordinance to Submit Municipal Lighting
Flint Bond to Feople raises.
O'BRIEN AND NICHOLSON AGAINST IT
Proposition Is to Let Voters DecKe
at the Polls Whether Omaha
hall Balld Eleetrlo Light
System.
The ordinance authorising the submis
sion to popular vote of the question of Is
suing $500,000 bonds for the construction,
appropriation of purchase of conduits, sub
ways and an electric street lighting plaat
was passed by the council Tuesday night by
a vote of 7 to 2.
Mayor Moo res Is on record as strongly
favoring the proceeding and nothing stands
In the way frefh the Incorporation of the
question In the ballots at the election No
vember I.
The action was a surprise, as It was
understood nothing would be done until
later In the week at a special meeting. '
The proposition from the Omaha Elec
tric Light and Power company for street
lamps at $76 a year was received previous
to the vote on the bond ordinance and re
ferred to the street and lighting commit
tee, Nicholson and O'Brien were the members
who voted against the bond ordinance.
"I don't see the wisdom of voting $500,000
for an electric light plant that cannot pro
duce light as cheap as prices offered by the
lighting company," said Nicholson In ex
plaining his vote.
O'Brien said he thought It better to get
through with the waterworks acqulremsnt
before attempting any more municipal
ownership projects. No other talk was
hsd about the measure. ,
Whether or not this means the offer of
cheaper street lighting will be withdrawn
Is problematical.
Other Hond Propositions.
Other bond propositions also were author
ised for submission to the voters. One
calls for $100,000 in sewer bonds and the
other for $60,000 for the construction of
three new fire engine houses at the follow
ing locations: Twenty-fourth, near Cum
ing street, where the present house has
nearly collapsed; Nineteenth and Lake, and
in the rear of the high school on a site yet
to be determined. .
i Mayor's Veto Sustained.
tlnue work until further orders was sus
tained. The mayor said Foundmaster
Laughland has continued catching dogs re
gardless of orders from himself and the
I council to stop, and upon the police inter-
ienng naa tnreateneu to sue the chier or
police, city, mayor and their bondsmen to
obtain redress. The mayor stated, also,
that he did not consider the city has the
money to spend for the 300 or more dogs
that would be Impounded during October
and that the question had been to quit the
work on the first of each October.
The presentation of a bouquet of roses to
the mayor from the council last Thursday
night, when the executive was prevented
from welcoming King Ak-Sar-Ben, was re
membered In a neatly worded letter of
thanks and appreciation.
. - To Attend Tax Sales.
By resolution the city attorney was
authorized to attend tax sales under the
scavenger law which begin . November 2
and to bid in property that would otherwise
be sold for, certain percentages of -the 19o
assessment valuation. ' The following
schedule was fixed for the guidance of the
attorney. Property worth $100 or less, 40
per cent) more than $100 and less than
$900, 60 per cent; more than 600 and less
than $1,000, 60 per cent; more than $1,000 and
less than $2,600, 70 per cent;' more than
$3,600, 78 per 'cent t
" North Sixteenth Street Paving. v
The final ordinance directing North Six
teenth street repaved.wlth asphalt was in
troduced and a special meeting will be
neid today at 6 o'clock to pass It. The
contract for the Job to the Barber Asphalt
company was approved.
Breaoa Wants Information. -
A lette.- from A. G. Beeson, local reprs
aentatalve of the National Board of Fire
Underwriters asked what action, if any,
would be taken upon the report of Eleo
trical Inspector Boyd of September 16.
wherein improvement In outside electrical
wiring was demanded under a threat of in
creased fire Insurance rates. Mr. Beeson
said no acknowledgment of the communl-
cation had been received and he wished to
know at oneo what Is nrrn. h. h.
On the motion of Councilman Evans the
tetter was referred to the city electrician,
who has nothing whatever to do with the
answering of it, the matter being now out
of his hands and up to the council.
Clmman's Car Fare Ordinance.
The Zlmman ordinance proposing 3-cent
street car fares during the rush hours of
the morning and evening was placed on file
upon the recommendation of the committee
on railways, telegraphs and telephones. No
reasons were given for the summary dis
posal of the measure and no objection
raised to its death. Hoys. O'Brien and
Zlmman voted against the adoption of the
report, Hoye demanding roll call In order
to ge( himself right on the record.
Railroads Got Rights.
An ordinance giving the Union Paclflo
and Burlington railroads the right to tra
verse the following streets with tracks snd
closing the streets was passed. Railroad
street from Martha to Vinton, Castellar,
Arbor, Elm, Oak and Spring. The portions
closed are stub ends abutting on the rail
road property. The additional room Is de
sired to increase the yards. Railroad street
Is not used as a thoroughfare.
The ordinances arranging to furnish
steady heat to the new Crelgh'ton Law
school for $26 a month was passed. The
arrangement will necessitate the use of an
extra boiler at the city hall.
NASH NOT CEUTA1N AS TO PLAN
May or Mar Not Withdraw His Own
Proposition.
"I do not know whether I shall withdraw
the proposition for cheaper street lighting
until after the people have voted on the
municipal plant bond Issue," said President
F. A. Nash of the Omaha Eleetrlo Light
and Power company. In reference to the
passage of the ordinance Tuesday night
by the council. "I may let the proposition
remain up to the city until the election Is
held as an argument against the proposed
municipal plant. But on this I am not
certain. So far as l ean se the city la
still at perfect liberty to extend the light
ing contract, regardless of the bond or
dinance, or the way the people vote. Per
sonally, I think the people do not wish to
attempt further munlclpallsatlon of publlo
utilities for the present. With a municipal
lighting plant will come a demand and
political pressure for more lights, that will
bring the total number from 62 up to, I
should estimate, A plant to maintain
this amouat of llgtftirig could be con
structed by a private company for about
$1,000,000, hut It would cost the city much
more.
"One of the chief reasons why I was de
feated In the council was the fact that the
Other members of the council feit that
Zlmman was endeavoring to make political
capital for himself at their expense, and,
rather than do the wise and practical thing,
they made up their minds they would vote
for the ordinance,' to play even with Zlm
man. That was tne Inner Influence that
prevented a consideration of the proposition
on its merits."

- This Winter. -
Instructions were received as anticipated
by Lieutenant Colonel J. Eacrourt Sawyer,
chlsf quartermaster of the Department ot
the Missouri, from Quartermaster General
Humphreys Tuesday evening directing him
to fnake an immediate inspection of the
condition of the' barracks and administra
tion building at old Fort Omaha, and their
availability for quartering two companies
of the United States Signal service. Colonel
Sawyer is directed to make the neoessary
estimates for repairs as expeditiously as
possible and he will go to Fort Omaha to
morrow with the superintendent of con
struction to make the necessary plans.
"If necessary," said Colonel Sawyer, "we
will take two superintendents of construc
tion with up in order to hurry ths matter
as much as possible. The buildings are in
such shape that many repairs may be
needed, as they 'have not been occupied
since the Spanish-American war, when the
Third regiment of Nebraska volunteers was
nilapUMd T tklnb ka.It will k..
immediately after the submission of our
report to the quartermaster general. I
scarcely think the work can be finished in
time for the signal companies to take pos
session this winter, u there la much to be
done, but at all events the work wJU be
pushed to completion as rabidly as pos
sible," u i . I s
