TRAVESTY NOT TO HONOR THEM THUS Councilman from Tenth la rable to Impreaa Ufa OoHttgin with Sarloaaneas of Hla Thomahta. Councilman Peter E. Elaaaser of the Tenth ward la bound to set hla nam en grossed on the scroll of fame. While on his dally pertgrl nation Monday and with an eye single to the realization of a city beautiful, Mr. Elsasser noticed that the wooden Indians guarding Omaha cigar tores had not been painted since the time of the big wind In 1899. This thought ran kled In his bosom until 10 reached the council chamber Monday afternoon, when 1.0 npoke right up In the meeting of the committee of the whole and told his alder manic confreres that one of the duties they owed their constltumts was to see that three wooden models of the noble abori gines received a coat of shining paint be fore It was time to clip the horses and take down the storm doors. To allow these wooden sentinels of a once mighty race to lapae Into a palntless Ignominy was a travesty on justice and a slum on the Indian, Mr. Jlsasr explained. "Yes," chimed In Councilman McOovern. and what would the Kansas City Commer cial club say of Omaha if the members of that body should ste our wooden Indians? Heaven forbid that we should let our wooden Indians go dmwn, 'unwept, un honored and unpalnted.' " Councilman Jackson suddenly awoke and asked what the motion was, thinking there was a roll call. "I think this la a matter for the Juvenile court." suggested Councilman Davis. Councilman EUasacr threatens to Intro uce a resolution requiring that all wooden Indiana be properly coated with paint.
