6 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER . 13. 1903. ITY nAS ONE TREASURER Ja3g Btwi Takes This Position is the Cathen loit. .AWYERS tXCHANGE TART REMARKS Breen and Htrlmaa Try Patiently to Mikt Cather see He Can ot rnderatnnd the Law. "Whatever els t do I am going to hold that you have a city treasurer." This remark, Interjected by Judge Sean Into a running Are of argument over the Cathera ault, m about the only definite thing that came out of all the argument Tuesday; that in, over which the lawyers did not haggle. Mr. Cathers. In his argument, had empha sised his contention that the County Board f Equalization had no right, when In session last June, to equalise city and chool district tax en for lnmi as well (is for Judge Soars "I think myseir that Is a very serious proposition, Mr. Cutlicrs." Tea, your honor. It Is." "But, even If that be true," continued tli oUrt, "how does It dovetail In with your main contention here. Would you declare ' he whole charter unconstitutional and 'void because certain sections might be held so?" "Tea your honor, I'll say that. I think it should be, there Is so much in it that is vontradlctory." Cross Oae Brlde at Time. "Row under the shining heavens can you naks such a thing as this legal?" was a requent exclamation of the watchdog of i lie treasury. And his gorge roue to tha I Itch where words would not cotne fluently when City Attorney Breen and Assistant Herdman sat still and smiled and answered: "We'll tell you about that when we get in It." Mr. Cathers made some casual allusion to the pomposity of which the gentleman has large a supply" and went gleefully on kith the reading which was giving wearl- -.'SS to the soul of Judge Sears to such ex i jnt that he was compelled niai.y times . i self-defense to get Into the argument. Mr. Cathers talked Impromptu, read de- Islons, construed sections of the charter and analysed chapters of the statutes. Occasionally he uncovered the shining sun u train as the preposition of queries which d!d not fease Breen or Herdman. They simply could not agree with him. They i jld him he Just couldn't understand the I: iir. They attempted to crush him with i lie Information that the assessment of i ixes and the levying of a tax are two different things. But Mr. Cathers stuck to it thtt the city lawyers were obtuse and i wen they all broke away again with smiles i'f deprecation and rlty for each other. Frank Ransom, Cather's advising counsel, wns moved to an occasional put In, but Curl Herring, representing the school board end. sat back in his chair and, like Jim Ui ley's Mudsill folks. Just "chawed on." Rssurn Goes Into History. WhenJt came Mr. Ransom's turn to talk li Injocted some old but enlivening memo i Wn of the days when a republican leglsla mre was taking away from Governor IIol umb the right to name a fire and polico i .ard. He a!so insinuated with all the i: ntlencss possible under the circumstances i;:.it the brothers-in-law opposite were de i :vous of having the charter declared con 'ltutiont had all along cherished the i' it Ion that It was, perhaps whyt "Because the new charter grants large increases In salary to the city legal de partment (and I am not quarreling with thnt from the standpoint of a lawyer) and nlses the pay of councllmen from $000 to fl.rtOO a year. I am of opinion these ralsos pro-In contravention of the state constitu tion. In Increasing the salaries of officers tiring their term, of office, but I know we i 'list bow to-the decision of the supreme urt that the legal prohibition applies . ly to constitutional offices, even though i e language is 'public offices.' " ' uing to the gist of his argument, Mr. Cinsom said: Mr. Cathers and myself appear here not against the consolidation of the offices of illy and county treasurer, because person ally I have long favored such consollda i'im of city and county .government. 'We I'npcar-for persons who want it done eun- tltutlonslly. We appear for taxpayers, $4 a Month Dr. Ira a. ma a makes a nominal fee for the rrovrda of people who ore seeking his service.

Frank Morris, Argentine, Kas.. sys: "My ears have discharged offensive I us for years, which has eutrn my ear drum away. I have not been able to hear only very loud noises. Specialists all told me I could not be cured. 1 could net sleep t night for the noises In my head. After taking your treatment 1 am cured. I can hear perfectly. All discharge has Moprxsl. 1 am cured.

We are here for taxpayers who want the levying of taxes for school pur poses safeguarded so that they can be col lected. We demand that the question of school district taxes shall be taken care of rather than the Interests of paving con tractors. The city attorney's office can take care of them If It wants to." Question of Propriety. He argued at length that It was not proper for a city charter to attempt to place new duties upon a county officer. Her Judge Bears inquired about th en actments placing upon the governor the duty of appointing a fire and police board, and Mr. Ransom gave his opinion of the old fight, that It was a purely partisan move. He contended, too. that the police power of the state extends over every foot of Its territory. He could see no analogy between that and the proposition to make the county treasurer city treasurer ex offlolo. "While he Is the collecting officer for all the school districts and cities, towns and villages," said the lawyer, "all of these subdivisions have their own treasurers." Mr. Ransom also raised the point that. If the action of the County Board of Equal ization should stand for next year and the year following the Omaha school district would nut get the benefit of the taxes to be levied on the new buildings that are to be erected In Omaha at an early date. The case Is still unfinished and threat ens to consume all of another day, at least. DIAMONDS Frenxer. 16th end Dodgs. UP TO MILLER'S ASSOCIATES Plea Made by Commercial CI ah Ex ecutive Committee to Ret tier Grsid Vacated. Acting on a motion of F. E. Sanborn, the executive committee of the Omaha Com mercial club Tuesday resolved to ask the subscribers to the Cosmopolitan hotel proj ect to use their Influence with Rome Miller to give possession of the Her Grand hotel property to Peter E. Iler. A copy of the resolutions will be sent to each man inter ested In the Cosmopolitan company. The whole executive committee of twenty-five men was present and the action was unani mous. It was stated at tlio executive committee meeting that Mr. Miller had definitely com mitted himself to abide by the decision of hlsjissoclates. Information was brought to the commit tee that the National Orange expected to spend tlO.ono to secure the passage of a parcels post bill. The committee expressed Itself as opposed to parcels post legislation and Instructed Its commissioner to so In form Nebraska's senators and representa tives In congress. The transportation committee reported the Milwaukee had given assurance that rates put In from Omnha to Iowa and South Da kota would be satisfactory to Omaha. Dr. Bernard A. McDermott was elected a member of the club. So much time was taken up with hotel matters thnt the report of the stock show committee was deferred until noon Thurs day, W. J. C. Kenyon has secured volu minous and exact information on the various stock shows of the country and hns received letters from officers of breeding as sociations expressing, their desire to ex hibit at Omaha. One dealer promised to ahow two carloads of fine cattle. Mr. Ken yon figures it will cost about S,000 to run the stock show, and it Is expected this amount will be guaranteed by the business men of the city, though It Is thought re ceipts would, be large enough oo that thoy would be called on to pay very little of, the guarantee. Kin a" of All Congm Medicines. Mr. E. O. Case, a mall carrier of Canton Center, Conn., who has been In the U. 8. service for about sixteen years, says: "We have tried many cough medicines for croup, but Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Is king of all and one to be relied upon every time. We also find It the best remedy for coughs and colds, giving certain results and lavln no bad after effects. We are never without It In the house."

Among Them n Number of the Leading; Artist of the West. With a clear sky, but with too strong a wind from the north to make good scores possible, the annual winter shoot of the Omaha Oun club opened at Townsend's park, on the east side of the river, Tues day morning. The wind was Just cold enough to make the shooting hard, as It brought tears t the shooters' eyes and also caused targets to make bad Jumps on the rise. The attendance of outsiders was large, be yond expectation, over thirty-five coming from other points, but the Omuha con tingent was small. Oniaha shooters seem to have lost some of their interest in this sport since Iowa saw fit to rule out the shooting of live birds and the nlmrods don't seem to take so kindly to the Inanimate targets. Those In attendance from out of the city are: George Maxwell, Holsteln. Neb.; Pat Adams, Rockwell City, la.; Ole Olsen, Hol dredge. Neb.; C. A. Thorpe. Geneva; A. H. Hardy.

NEW TORK, Dec. 12Bnse ball club own. ers and managers from all sections of the country are In New York, some attending the annual meeting of the National league, which was begun today; others attending the Eastern league's anunl meeting, whlli the remiilnder hare guthered for the meet ing of the National Association or Minor les giies which begins tomorrow. Today's meeting of the National league was devoted largely to routine business, and it was stated there was no evidence of the reported opposition to the re-election of President and Secretary Harry Pulllam. James A. Hart, the retiring president of the Chicago club, formally withdrew from th league and presented his successor In the direction of the Chicago club, Charles W. Murphy. Mr. Hart was unanithously elected an honorary member. President Pulllam's report as to the financial condition of the league was said to show the largest balance In the history of the organization, the last season being one of the most prosperous- years base ball has known. The pennant for- 19n6 was formally awarded to the N'ow York club, which also won the world's series with the Philadel phia team, pennant .winners of the Amer ican league. . Those present st the meeting were A. H. Soden and W. H. Conant of Boston; C. H. Ebbltts and H. W. Medlus of Brooklyn; Charles W. Murphy of Chicago; August Herrmann of Cincinnati; John T. Brush and Fred M. Knowles of New York; W. J. Shettsllne and D. Leroy Reeves of Phila delphia; Barney Dreyfus and Will Locke of Plttuburg and Stanley Robison of 81. Louis. Representatives of the minor leagues ap peared before the ' National league and urged that the drafting rules be changed to permit of the taking of only one player Instead of two, and increasing the price to be paid by the drafting club from 1750 to 31. 0(111. Consideration of the matter was temporarily postponed. - At the meeting of the Eastern . league today a new constitution was adopted. It takes no radical changes from the old one. Th lengthening of the schedule is still under consideration. CALIF'OR MAINS BREAKING AWAY No lrfnarer Bound by Rule of Eastern Foot Boll Player. SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 11 Tha faculty athletic committee of the Stanford univer sity and the University of California met In this cltv yesterday and adopted a reso lution decrying the evils of the present sys tem of foot ball playing in America. It recommendod that the Rugby game be In troduced as a substitute. In the same resolution this committee recommended that the Intercollege foot ball contests should no longer be held un der the direction of the present rules com mittee, which sits In the east each year and revises the methods of playing the college game. This means an absolute break with this committee, which has gov erned the game for many years, and the naming of a western rules committee, which shall have full power to act. WITH THE BOWLERS. The Krug Parks pulled the Met Brothers team back a notch last night by winning two games of the- cartes. They ran away wlth the first, won the second by a fair margin, and lost the third away off after having a lend of sixty pin In the first two frames.

I., Dec. 12.-The little gunboat Wasp, formerly the yacht Co lumbia, came Into port thla afternoon un der one boiler and several sails, after a terrific battle with a North Atlantic hur ricane, during which It sprung aleak and waa kept afloat after its pumps choked through hand balling by Its entire crew. The little vessel was blown nearly to the Gulf Stream by Sunday's storm, nnd was nearly two ditys getting back to port. At one time the water which came In through a leak In the stern flooded its enplnc room nnd for ten hours on Sunday the Wasp was at the mercy of the waves. The cron of sixty men, a third of whom were naval apprentices and unused to such boisterous conditions, bailed for many hours with buckets and succeeded In freeing the en gine room. Hospital Steward White sus tained a broken rib, but refused o give up his place lu the balling line. The success of Chief Boatswain Hugh 8weeney, the commander of the Wasp, In bringing his vessel through the hurricane through such trying circumstances received the commendation of the officers at tha naval training station here, to which the Wasj) is attached. The Wasp left at I o'clock Saturday for the relief of the brlc Harry Smith, which was thought to be in a dangerous position at the entrance of Vine yard sound. Rescue of Mshtahlp Crew.
