"Transfer?"
Omaha etreet oar conductors are repeat
ing that Query In their sleep, auch wu the
mental .effect, of the 'first 4sy 'of tha new
transfer system. When jthe wife" of a Sher
man avenue conductor asked her husband
Thursday morning what ha would have for
breeskfast he replied. Transfers''."
The new system of transfers Introduced
Wednesday by tha Omaha aY Council Bluffs
Struct Hallway company la a topic of gen
eral Interest, particularly In view of the
misleading- framed signs posted In the cars
Wednesday morning.
General Manager Bin 1th of the street rail
way company .explained .that, the signs
were made out In a hurry and were not In
accordance with the Instructions given he
conductors. The first clause of the signals
a request that passengers ask for transfers
at timer fares are paid, whereas the city
ordinance specifically provides that con
ductors enell ask and ascertain when fares
-say . collected whether or not passengers
want a transfer. f . ' .
1 Ceedeeter'e Mleeoaeeattoa. -
It was a peculiar coincidence that on
'Wednesday afternoon Assistant City Attor
ney Dunn, who drew up the I fer ordi
nance, waa refused a transfer -y i conduc
tor who had failed to offer Mr. Dunn a
transfer when collecting the fare and who
referred .the Attorney;, to. the sign, aa ..eu
thorlty forrefueing the '.transfer. .'. .
"It was that conductor's Idee, that' T
should have, asked him for a transfor. t
tha time my fare waa paid or forfeit my
rights to a transfer that trip, awl ha even
directed me to the sign In the car," said
Vr. rm'nn . "T believe that conductor was
ns of the exceptions' to the rule, and no
Doubt things will Become adjusted In time.
But I think It-well that passengers know
their rights ' 1ft the premises. Another
thing, the second clause of tha eigne In
nufntlon Snya that transfers "will only bo
Insued on receipt of cash fare, while there
are five points of transfer In the city where
the street car company must give second
transfers."

One of the disagreeable features about
the' new system is that people living along

order to gat to the Uanacom, park district
without paying a double far. ', ,

,
Major T. 8. Clarkson. formerly posunaa-
ter of Omaha? arrived In the city Thurs
day morning on his tour of the states In
the Interest of the Alaaka-Tukon-Paoino
exposition, which will be held at Seattle
from June 1 to October 1, !. Nebraska,
being Major Clarkson'a old' home, be
naturally turned here first. He says he la
much encouraged over the prospects ef ee
cuiing a representative exhibit from hie
home etate. Msjor Clarkson Is the special
commissioner for the exposition and' has
been delegated te tha arduous task of
visiting all the states of the union, in ad
dition to many foreign countries, and se
curing exhibits for. the exposition.
The major haa had years of experience
at exposition work, having been connected
In some capacity with every exposition
since the Transmlssissippl, which was heU
In thla city In 1898. At the Portland ex
position lsst year Mr. Clarkson was one
of the Important factors In the success of
the enterprise, being the director of ex
hibits. Besa. far alaaka.
Mr. Clarkson said, while the primary ob
ject of the exposition, te be held In Seattle
In 1909 waa the exploitation of the resources
ef the atate of .Washington and Seattle la
particular, one of the main featurea would
be a complete and comprehensive exhibit
of the commercial resources .of Alaaka.
. "The popular conception of Alaska Is
that It la a country of 'get rich quick'
gold mines and glaclera, a land of barren
wastes of territory with nothing but gold
dust to relieve tba monotony," observed
Major Clarkson. "I do not wish to deny
tba Imputation that the gold minea are the
principal feature of Alaaka, as over 1160,
000, 000 worth of gold has been taken from
tha country since the first discovery, and
mora than W.OOO.OOO worth during the
present year, but It Is only a -question of
a few years until the copper exports would
equal those of gold, as some of tha richest
copper mines In the world have been dis
covered In different parts of Alaska, even
with the limited exploration which the
country her had. Four railroads are now
building to the. location of the more Im
portant copper ' fields, which are but 170
miles .i

the cultivation of oats, rye and hay Is be
lng extended more and more each year,
as the climatic conditions for this Indus
try are Ideal." . !
Will Go t tha Orleat. .
It Is Mr. Clarkson's Intention to visit all
the oriental countries and he hopes to ob
tain an exhibit from each country, as It is
Intended the exposition will tend to estab
lish closer commercial relations between
the United 8tates and tbe orient-
It tsthe general thought of the. repre
sentative and progressive business men of
the Pad no roast that the San Francisco
disaster, deplorable as It, wae la. all. Its
features;' must inevitably redound te the
benefit ef some of the other large cities on
the coast and, It la believed .that Seattle
ia.tae ana, as. the. ouamess men of Seattle
are wide. awake to-their opportunity 'and
realise that, the exposition In 190 will-be
of material assistance. Theee- men have:
subscribed 1500,000 cash for the purpose f
exploiting the exposition and are' ready 'to
subscribe a like amount In the future. They
do not ask the money or aaslstanee of out
sldera, excepting their moral support, and
(he entire expenses of the exposition will
be borne by the cltlxens of Seattle, with
the single exception ef the government
which will be requested to erect a perma
nent. bulldlig on the exposition grounds
and also provide for the usual federal ex
hlbit. But further than this no aaslstanee
Is asked other than that the several states
and foreign countries" visited by Major
Clarkson will show their co-operation in
the ahape of exhibits of tha resources
thereof.
The exposition wilt be held on the
grounds of the University of Washington
and It is intended to use the proposed gov
ernment building as a museum after the
close of the exposition.

The proposal to offer a reward of 11,000
for the apprehension of Jury bribers will be
dlsenseed at a ' special meeting of the
Omaha Bar association to be held Friday
at t p. m. at the Commercial club rooms.
The meeting haa been called y H. II. Bal-

The offering of a reward to prevent or
punish jury tampering Jiae met with the
approval of a large -number 'of attorneys
and t Is said enough have offered to give
nnanclal support to the plan to Insure lis
suocess. A number of attorneys will pledge
themselves to pay the reward in case It
becomes necessary. -'.
While no very definite proof of Jury tam
pering haa been offered, -some of the at
torneys point to the, fact that Juries In
damage cases against targe corporations
are repeatedly hung by one Juror, necessi
tating trlsl after trial. Indefinite charges

Suits against former County Judges O.
W. Shields, Irving F. Baxter end Duncan
M. Vlnsonhaler for , ovef tll.OOO collected
for performing marriage ceremonies and
not turned in to the county treasury will
be started in district court Friday fore
noon by County Attorney Blsbaugh. The
suits will be eight In humber. one for each
term served by the defendants. -
The amounts claimed by the county from
the former officials are aa follows? O. W.
Shields, fl.ftW; Irving F. Baxter, 14,070. and
Duncan M. Vlnsonhaler, $1,467, making a
total of tU,S2s. These amounts are secured
by charging up agalnat each of the former
Judges a t3 fee for each marriage ceremony
performed. . Owing to the fact the bonds
men for each term of office are different. It
will be nectssary to file a sepsrate suit
for each term. '
It Is tha contention of the county authori
ties thst the marriage ceremonies are per
formed by virtue of tha. Juatlce of the
peace powers conferred on the county
judges by law. A U fee Is regularly pro
vided for In the aeotion giving justices of
tha peace the right to perform marrlago
ceremonies. Another section of the law
makes It obligatory upon the county Judge
to turn In to the county all fees collected
by him for performing official acta. .
Shotwell's View of Case.
Deputy County' Attorney Shotwell, who
has had tha case In charge, contends that
If the marriage fee is authorised by law It
belongs to the county and If It Is not a
legal fee tbe county Judges have been
guilty of malfeasance In office In taking ;
It. He bases thla conclusion on a section
of the constitution Which prohibits
flclals taking fees not authorised by la
The county Judges Involved will Mk-lu
cases and they will be carried to the .
preme court. The -question aa to the Oi ,
position of these fees has been discussed
t different times, but it has never been
settled. County Attorney Slabaugh'a suit
will be a precedent for other counties.
The suits are brought under orders Is-
sued by the county commissioners last
summer.- Other suits aaainst countv 'Of
ficials ' to recover fees earned by the of
ficials, but never collected, will. be brought
by the county attorney as soon aa the
county auditor s offtoe has finished check
ing up the records to determine tha
amounts due from tbe different officials.
