"Independent grain dealer have com plained to ma that they do not believe they have been fairly treated by the grain Inspectors at Omaha." said Governor Mickey Thursday, as recorded In The Bee Friday morning. V. F. Heyl. chief grain Inspector,' de nounces the statements of the Independents to the governor as unfounded and unjust. "It Is a fact gcnrlly conceded In grain circles of the state, ' said Mr. Heyl, "that Inspection In Omaha is fairer than In any other market. Farmers and Independent dealers who have shipped to Kansas City have found this out to their sorrow when they thought they would find as good treatment there as here and shipped to that city. If any man Is dissatisfied with the Inspection, I advise him to ship to another market once.

"How foolish of me to have paid more," he thought. But on arriving at the foot of the seven-mile hill the driver pulled up his horse and shouted: "First-class passengers will keep your seats; second-class passengpts get out and walk; third-class passengers get out and pubh."

The assistants are as careful In getting correct weights as If they were measuring gold. It is non sense for 'he Independents to say that they are given grades of No. S and 4 on grain which would be graded No. S for the regulars. The men who make such statements are aware that they can ap peal from the decision of the chief In spector to the Judgment of the grain com mittee of the exchange, a body of seven able business men, all experienced In the grain business. No Complaints Filed. "There has not been a complaint In the last twelve months. It Is natural the peo ple should want their grain to grade bet ter than it does, but none of the dealers really think they are given an unfair deal or they would ask an Investigation by the grain committee." The printed rules of the Omaha Oraln exchaage provide for ah appeal from the assistant Inspectors to the chief Inspector. If the shipper Is not satisfied with his de cision a provision is made for an appeal to the grain committee. Regarding the course to be pursued by the grain com mittee In such cases rule 25 says: It shall be the duty of the grain com mittee, upon receipt of notice as aforesaid, to proceed at once to carefully examine the grain In question and render Its de cision u to the quality and grade thereof In accurdlnce with the standard estab lished by the grain committee, In writing, said decision to be final; and the chief inspector shall, when so requested, Issue a certificate oi tne graue or the grain In question In accordance with the decision of the grain committee.

Announcements of the Theaters, Matinee and night performances today will bring the present bill to a close at the Orpheuin. At .the perfomance this evening the curtain will rise at 8:15 sharp. The Patty brothers, a new European sen sation, will be on the new bill that opens the week with a matinee Sunday. Many of their feats of equilibrium are no; only orig inal, but are said to be mo3t remarkable. especially true Is this said to te of Alex ander Patty's feat of walking i n his head, he being the only man that doe this won derful act. Rignorlna Verera Is another prominent feature. Ehe Is known as the Italian nightingale and comes from the Royal Academy of Music. St. Cecilia, Rome. On Sunday afternoon the first perform ance of seven to be given of "The For bidden Land." at the Boyd will be on. This pretty musical comedy was a success in Omaha last season and comes again with all the ifuatnt and amusing features that made It so. It hss the bright, sparkling comedy, the musical airs and the catohy songs that mark a good production of the kind, ana on top of that has much orlg lnallty In conception of situations. In cos turning and In scenic effects. "Do you want a better, cheaper and more extended telephone service In Omaha?" said T. H. Pollock, one of the promoters of the new company. "There will be a proposition submitted to the mayor and city council of Omaha within the next few days asking that an Independent tele phone franchise be passed by the council and submitted to the voters of Omaha, to say whether or not the citizens of Omaha shall enjoy the benefits of telephone competition. "The Independent telephone franchise will provide for a reduction of from 25 to 35 per cent from existing telephone rentals in Omaha. "It will provide for the constructing of a modem, first-class telephone system In Omaha and South Omaha. It will provide for free service from Omaha to South Omaha. What does this free service mean to the average business man? An Omaha business man must pay now $7 per month, or $&4 per year, for a business telephone on the Omaha exchange. In addition to this rate he must pay S cents for every conversation with a sub scriber on the South Omaha exchange. The independent rate at 8,000 subscribers, which Is what the Bell company claims to The matinees at the Burwood are about the most populai thing offered in the amusement line In Omaha these days, Thursday afternoon saw one of the finest assemblages of women and children ever gathered In the city, and this afternoon will see that assemblage repeated. The pretty little theater has won its way from the beginning and the company is also com Ing in for golden praises. "The Olrl I Left Behind Me" will give way to "A Royal Family'' at the matinee on Sunday. Funeral services of Mrs. Frank J. Fits gerald will be held at the family residence U14 8. SMh Ave., Sunday. September 24, at I o'clock n- in- Most value for your money at Huber mann's Jewelry store, 13th aud Douglas, have. Is $57 per year. By the Bell's ma nipulation of rates the South Omaha busi ness man Is held up as follows: One South Omaha telephone, per montli 8 4.60 One Omaha telephone, per month 9. BO Total, per month $ 14 00 Or per year 168.00 Saving- to Be Effected. 'By rates already provided In the South Omaha Independent franchise, the business man there would gat one telephone for $3.M per month and have the free use of the Omaha exchange, which would be a saving of 810.50 per month, or $12 per year. The Omaha business man can save the difference between the present rate of the Bell company, 884 per year, and the Independent rate, which will be 854 per year, and In addition get' free service to South Omaha. Now, If the Bell 'monopoly' can satisfy you that you are not being overcharged, don't ask your councilman to support the independent telephone fran chise. "In addition to lowering rates, we will erect one main exchange building In the business district of Omaha, one subex change building In some part of the resi dence district and one exchange building In South Omaha. These buildings will all be handsome and commodious fireproof buildings and will mean the outlay of at least $150,000. The amount that will be ex pended, In case we are permitted to spend our money In your city, will be in the neighborhood of 81.500,000, which will mean that hundreds of laboring men, mechanics and contractors will find employment. Many of your Omaha contractors wfll se cure valuable contracts for the erecting of buildings, laying conduits, etc What It Means to Business. "If the citizens of Omaha want this mil lion and a half dollars spent In Omaha and South Omaha, If you want Omaha to talk with the 100,01.0 Independent telephone sub scribers in Omaha territory who are now OMAHA MEN AND THEIR HOBBIES connected with Lincoln, St. Joseph, Kansas City, Des Moines, Eloux City and South Omaha, but who cannot reach Omaha, see your councilman and Insist on the council submitting the proposition to the voters of Omaha to decide whether or not Omaha Is to have the benefit of telephone competition. "Omaha business men are sending out trade excursions in this same territory, where are located these 100,000 Independent telephone users, soliciting their business for the Omaha Jobbing houses, banks and merchants generally. Did you ever stop to think that these same men whom you are asking to patronize you own telephone sys tems, exchanges and toll lines, which repre sent millions of dollars of money. Invested and which are built to your city limits In South Omaha, and that they might prefer to talk over their own lines when sending In their orders to the Omaha Jobbers in preference to paying their money to tho Bell company while their own lines stttnd Idle? "The Omaha Jobbing houses and banks are receiving letters dally from all parts of the state soliciting the Influence of these Jobbers and bankers to demand the passage of the Independent telephone franchise, and there la no good reason why the indepen dent telephone franchise should not be granted. The only opposition to It is from the Bell company, who, of course, wants to prolong Its monopoly of the telephone business In Omaha. "Boost for Omaha! Boost along the Inde pendent telephone franchise and you will never have cause to regret It." RICH DRESSMAKING STOCK J.

BRANDEIS SONS. MAYOR GLAD EDQUIST IS OUT Frank K. Moorei Finds Consolation la Defeat of Man He Boosted Into OfBce. "There Is one thing In the result of the primary that gives me more satisfaction than anything else," said Mayor Moores. "It goes to show that the whirligig of time often brings retribution In Its wake. A number of years ago not long before a full county campaign the matter was mentioned In republican councils that It would be a good thing to have a man of Swedish na tionality on the ticket to strengthen Its ap peal to the general mass of voters. I went up to the city engineer's office where P. E. Edqulst was working at the time and brought him down to my office. I asked him if he would care to be county sur veyor. He replied that he would, but that he did not think he could he nominated or elected. I took him to see other repub lican leaders, after he had promised to work hard for himself and the ticket If nominated. The result was that he was nominated and elected, and this not only once, but twice. "During my last campaign. In the spring of 1908, Edqulst went throtigh the city en gineer's office and urged his old acquaint ances there to vote for Benson for mayor on the ground that I could not be elected and that this was the only way to keep out a democrat. Apparently the county surveyor forgot any debt of gratitude that he may have owed to me. "It Is now to be noted that he was de feated for renominatlon and Is down and out a dead duck politically."
