Fw4 fr Prlsemera Hot Settle.
At the session of the committee of the
whole, preceding the regular meeting, which
did not occur lntil IS o'clock, a long dis
cussion was Indulged In concerning the
proposal to cut the sheriff's pay for fold
ing prisoners. Messrs. Keonard and I. re
asked for delay until Wednesday, in trder
that the rules being prepared by the dis
trict Judge could be before them. Com
missioner Tralnor voted with these two
for the time asked, explaining thit he
did so as a matter of courtesy sad lot
because he would not vote for the cut.
Commissioners Swlomon and Brunlng
stuck out tor immediate action, tfUug
the whole matter had been threshed over
until all hands understood It thoroughly.
They also Insisted that the only thing
to be passed on by the board was the
Vale of pay for meals, as the resolution
stood.
When the reports were calied for In
open board there were majority and
minority reports. The former, signed by
Kenhard, Ure and Tialnor, favored s
laying over until Wednesday. The mi
nority report asked for Immediate pas
sage of the Brunlng resolution as amended.
Mr. Solomon moved the adoption of the
minority report and Chairman Brunlng,
taking a short out, seconded from the
chair rather than take the time to call
some other member to the chair ro he
could take the floor.
Messrs. Kennard and Ure explained that
their motion for delay was to allow the
Judges to send In their report. Mr. Tralnor
said he would vote for postponement of
action until Wednesday on the dU-tlnct
understanding that he would not then
vote for any further delay. 80 the mutter
was laid over.
In this connection a communication was
read from Judge Day saying be had called
a meeting of the Judges for Mo uiay
morning to act on the proposed rules.
AbIlakca the Clear Staad.
On motion of Commissioner Solomon the
county clerk was directed to notify the
proprietor of the cigar stand In the corridor
on the second floor to remove his property
from the court house by February i. Mr.
Solomon specified that the owner pays no
rent, uses county light and heat and per
mitted dice shaking.
"One day." said Mr. Solomon. "I saw (our
or five men shaking dice at this stand, and
In one of the court rooms close by a man
was on trial for gambling "
Ofnotal bond of William W. Bingham,
who was a contestant for th office of olerk
of court, was ordered returned to him, Mr.
Broadwell's right to the office having been
affirmed by the supreme court.
After allowing routine bills and claims
and deferring action on contracts for sup
plies and printing until next week the board
adjourned to meet Wednesday at 10 o'clock.

"The various agencies of the Union Pa
cific are busied In Installing new settlers
; In the South rtatte valley," said Charles
: Miller, a land agent who has Just returned
I from North Platte. "The flourishing con
dition of these settlements bears most flat-
. terlng testimony to the rich prospects of
the country. The price now of lands under
the ditches Is about $40 an acre, but this
well be $76 or $100 in a short time. The soil
Is responsive to irrigation and the storage

dance In the dry seasons. The lands of tho
1 valley yield wonderfully.
I "The fame of the Colorado potato Is al
ready abroad, and W. J. Pennell, living east
of Sterling produced 400 and 600 bushels to
the acre. Although this Is not a corn coun
try, still some farmers raised as high si
fifty bushels to the acre. The South Platte
country offers unsurpassed opportunities to
the homeseekers, as there la plenty of land
yet to be had.
"The railroad activity In the west, espe
cially along the North Platte river and In
eastern Wyoming, together with the open.
Ing of the Shoshone reservation, will at
tract more homeseekers to western Ne
braska and to eastern Colorado and Wyo

Oaaaba Maa Whose Wife la Ordered
Deported Mirk Cat t'p
by tho Faet.
Joseph Salutsky, a Journeyman baker of
Omaha, Is the husband of the Mrs. Salutxky
whose deportation by the United States
Immigration bureau Is told of In another
column. He makes $18 a week and has
steady employment. He 'asserts he stood
ready and willing to pay any expense that
might have been necessary to have his
wife's affliction properly treated. What
makes blm feel particularly disappointed
is the fact that he was married only a
short time when he. came to the United
States to make a home for his wife before
bringing her over.
Mr. Salutxky has been la Omaha some
thing, leas than a year, but It was mora
through thoughtlessness than for any other
reason that he failed to declare bis Inten
tion before he did. It never occurred to
him that his wife might contract any dis
ease that would prevent her landing, and
he Is deeply regretful and chafTlned to

so strict as to shut his wife out under tba
circumstances.

Hestoratloa ( Hates Seta Coadltloaa
Back tho Old Mark
Loaallr.
"The restoration of grain rates to the
old basis brings the Omaha market back
to normal conditions," said Secretary Mer
chant of the Grain exchange. "While the
low .rates east were In effect grain men
hurried to ship out as much grain as they
could find market tor. Now that the old
rata s In force, shipments, will be lighter
for some time. The old rate Is satisfactory
to Omaha, as It puts this city on the same
basis,' relatively, with Kansas City and
other markets."
While the low rates were In effect from
100 to SU cars of corn were dally shipped
out of Omaha. Now the number runs from
sixty to eighty. This Is partly due to the
fact that so much was shipped out in De
cember, and partly due to light country
movement, for which bad roads are re
sponsible.
