It was found that there were two competing corn panlea The first was the bid of the Westers Contractor' Supply company. It offered to construct twenty-four cells with doors, win dow guards and stairs to match for prtcea which varied m eight different bids. The lowest offer was CIS; and the highest bid was K.9T4. The difference In the price Is due to the different kinds of steel used in the construe Uoo. The second bid was by the Champion Iron company of Canton. O. This company made three propositions, the prices varying from t&.0 to K.KS. The cKy clerk waa Instructed to tabulate the bids. A communication from the National Con struction company aaktcg that Its bond with the American Bonding company of Baltimore be released and that hi Its stead the bond of the Metropolitan Surety com pany of New Tork be substituted. The ob ject of the substitution was represented to be that the former company proposed to demand too large a premium for the bond. On a recommendation of the city attorney a resolution was passed permitting the sub stitution desired. The council then ad journed to meet at t p. m. At the evening session the council spent about three hours considering the proposi tion aa a committee of the whole. The j members were assisted In this work by na Lauwr, me arconect wno ptanneo the city hall. There is to the credit of the building fond for this purpose about ST.0CA. After the session ta ths office of Chief Brlgr the council went Into session and a resolution was passed recommending the acceptance of the proposition of the Champion Iron company of Canton. O.

There are enough annexa tionists In the city to surpass ths demon stration made by the antls of last Mon day eight with ease. W. W. Fisher has a formidable list of delegates who have personally signified then Intention aad willingness to go and boost the measure. The Interest in the discussion has act abated and every day arguments pro and coa are heard. It Is the universal admis sion that annexation la bound to come eventually. Many of those who bow op pose are agreeable to the proposition at the er J of three years. It fct curious to aota how they make use of an the argu ments for present annexation, saying that they would all be good at the end of the limited time. The annexationists usually get no satisfactory answer to the Ques tion If ultimate annexation la good why Is not ths Immediate pro position good. Tssaeee aaleesaaa Arrested. B.

OMAHA. Feb. 11. Tp the Editor of The Bee: Tour editorial under the caption "In Hard Llaea." In Tuesday evening- Bee, drew tbe writer's attentlm to a circular or leaflet that Is being circulated by parties who really must have very little to do or have some small and dirty purpose to serve. The facta In the arrangement for the McKlnley club dinner can be briefly stated. When the committee to arrange for the annual banquet was appointed there was np thought of Inviting tbe legislature or tbe state officers. The suggestion to do so was made by myself to the committer, and after discussion we agreed to see what could be done. On presenting the matter to the editor of Tbe Bee be ex pressed the opinion that It would be the graceful and the proper thing U do If we could raise the necessary funds, beyond what tbe sale of tickets woull bring. Mr. Rose water volunteered to help us. and through him nearly a score of promi nent Omaha republicans were approached. Tbey all endorsed tbe move and put their names down 'for amounts ranging trpra tit to tit. The McKlnley club made all tbe arrangements, paid out the money aad took tbe receipts for aame, train Included, which cost Just what It would have cort any other organisation or person IIJI. At tbe banquet Itself It waa explicitly announced that many f the pioneer re publicans professional and business men. had gives their aid In making the ban quet tbe success It was. Under these circumstances every fair minded person much conclude that . tbs authors of the circular alluded to have proven themselves to be knockers of the very smallest caliber. Their vicious mis representations ahould certainly react against them la any matters tbey may favor or oppose before the legislature. Tbe courtesy extended to the legislature and state officers was In the fullest good faith from inception to completion, with out any other motive under tbe sun ex cept that of timely hospitality and bnpaJ good nelgbborllness.

I pay my taxes, and I am very sure of this that no part of my taxes have yielded me a greater return than that portion which has tone toward the upbuilding and main tenance of the Institution In question.

I am well assured that Mr. Mc Kee, together with the rest ef tbe farmers In our state, has received his proportionate Interest tn the added value to his realty as the direct result of me Investigation a. experiments snd practical education which the young farmer has and Is now receiv ing at the hands of the staea. I have made a good many visits to the state farm and each time I have returned home with a deep feeling of satisfaction that Nebraska Is fostering and developing aa Institution that meana so much for Its material upbuilding.
