Tha Chicago Great Weatarn will, after
January 17, haul grain from Council BUTa
to Omaha and South Omaha for H. 'Thl
la tha rata which the Union Pad fie charged
for sometim anty It decided to rale tha
rata to 1 rent a- hundred, which la IS or
moie a car. When tba Union Partflo an
nounced tha rate would ba Inrreaaed a
torrn of protect waa raised and tha Omaha
Grain eschang filed charge with tba
Interatata Commerce commission. Tha
Great Western then ' stepped into the
breaeh and aaM It would haul, fraa of
eharg. grain from Covnc.ll Bluff -to ela
vatora on the Great Weatern traeka In
Omaha.
Thla again raised a . protest from other
elevator men not on tha Una of tha Great
Weatern, notably tomt of tha South Omaha
elevators. Tha Great Weatern haa tnet
tha altuatlon by airraetnr to haul stl grata
for 12 from Council . Bluffa to Omaha and
Booth Omaha. The Great Weatern haa a
contract with tha Union Plflc by which
It haa tha right to haul car to tha South
Omaha terminal.
Uoaoral pealal Is Made,
The Union Pacific haa filed Ita anawar
to tha Omaha Grain exchange with tha'
Interatata Commerce - eommlealorh A gen
eral denial la made that the Union Pacific
wlahea .to dlecrlminate against Omaha.
Tha Union Pacific will attempt to ahow
that tha business la anrenjunecativ' under
the old scale and that It la the bualness of
tha Iowa- line to bring tha grain to
Omaha and not force tha Union Pacific to
take It at Council Bluff where the ter
mlnaia are already congeated. All these
llnea have an annual contract with the
Union Pacific for the use of It bridge and
tracka. All tha cars which would come Jn
that way are foreign oars on' which a
charge of 60 cents per day la made for the
time tbey ara In tha puasasalon of tha
Union Pacific and as It generally take
four daya to bring car aoroa tha river,
unload It and eend It back it would take
all tha profit.
The action against the Union Pacific may
ba dropped aa font mm the Great Western
hna volunteered to take up tha aama ser
vice at the old price which the Union Pa
cific charged,'"
"Not so much Importance la attached to
the action of tha Union Pacific,' ald Sec
retary McVann of tha Grain exchange,
"since ltlB learned that tha Great Weatern
will not only awltch free all grain from
Council Bluffs to elevators on'lta own ter
m'nals In Omaha, but wilt ' also switch
grain to any other elevator at the rata of
S a car."

uaurped the function of. a mayor, namely,
to direct th chief . of police relative to

tion present why they did not proceed
against the mayor for alleged violation of
the Siocumb law.
Chief of Police Donahue said he would
obey order received from the mayor. Fur

the way of evading th law, the Civic
Federation will take aom action. I, ex

Representative Mike Lee, with others of
the Douglaa county delegation,-ia up from
Lincoln to spend Sunday at home. Friday
Mr. Lee Introduced a merger bill contem
plating the consolidation ot Omaha and
South Omaha and providing for th filing
of a petition of 10 per cent of the voter
and a subsequent general election In both
cities on the merger proposition. In a few
days Mr. Lee will offer another bill which
haa been prepared by John Paul Breen, and
which contemplates consolidation by plain
legislative enactment. The plan Is to have
th two bills tsken up for consideration by
the Douglas county delegation, the commit
tee on towns and cities and give a hearing
to those who want to be heard on either
bill.
"The matter will be treated In the fairest
manner possible," Mr. Lee said. "There
will be no attempt to rush anything
through and the delegation and committee
will give all an opportunity to present their
aides on the proposition. Then It will be
decided which bill will be . taken up for
further consideration."
The bill Introduced Friday waa th same
aa the one offered two year ago and which
drew a protest In boots from South Omsha.
Mr.' Lee thinks sentiment In th legisla
ture favors the passage of a merger bill,
giving the people a chance to rote.
Clarke Is Hopeful.
Representative H. T. Clarke, Jr., Is hope
ful for the passage of his bill providing
for the assessment and taxation of rail
road terminals for municipal purposes the
same aa other property Is taxed.
"Nearly every one of thos who thor
oughly understand the proposition Is fa
voring it and many are fighting for it."
Mr. Clarke said. "It la something of a
task to overcome a prevailing opinion that
th proposed plan of taxation for municipal
purposes will reduce the revenue received
by the' state and distributed for state,
county, township and school district pur
poses. The way, however, really looks en
couraging, and I hav every assurance
that the bill will pass."
