CRASS IN SEWERS NUISANCE
Practice Will Be Stopped, Says the
City Engineer.
POLICE POWER FOR INSPECTORS
Plea Now la Mind Blae There Are
Wet Eaoaffh Ptroliae tm
' Deal with the
Probleat.
Persons cutting graas on their liwn
In4 throw Ins the cuttings In gutters are
maalng the engineer's department condd
rable trouble. In some caees an effort
has apparently been made to put the graaa
tnd trimmings from trees In the Bowers.
That some of these efforts haye been sue
reaaful Is ehown In a number of con
gested sewers ana considerable expenae
has been Incurred In clearing them of
obstruction. Speaking of the matter En
tlneer Roaewater' said:
"Some arrests will be made If we can
rind the guilty partlea. for It la Impossible
to keep eewera at work when they are
filled with green graas, which will neither
float down the (ewers nor let other mat
ter pasa. This grass should be treated as
garbage If H cannot be fed to animals and
the same Is true of trimmings from bushes
nd trees.
"Omaha has but one policeman on duty
to every Ove mllea of paved streets and
It Is practically Impossible for the police
force to protect the sewers from persons
who aeem to have no Mea of what they
are expected to carry. It may be neces
sary for the city to give policemen's powir
to Inspectors of the street department, so
that the ordinances can be enforced. Buoh
power exists In the charter and thta ry
be the only means by which we can keep
the sewers open during the grass cutting
season.
'Another thing which should receive the
attention of property owners Is the man
ner In which contractors place building
material Jn the street. In practically every
case sand, bricks and stone are placed
against the curb, thus filling the gutter.
If the material cannot be placed near tho
center of the street property owners should
Insist that It be placed ora platform run
ning from the curb line, so that the gut
ters would be free In case of storm."

Judge Sutton has rendered a decision In
Contest case over the county attorneyship
of Thurston countyr In which he upholds
the title of Hiram Chase to the office.. A
written decision has been sent to Thurston
county to be filed in the case.
The contest grew out of a close vote, by
which Chase on the face of the returns'
was elected by six majority. His com
petitor. Waldo E. Whltcomb, protested
against the vote of Omaha proclnct being
counted because the voting place was
Changed Illegally. As Chase received nine
teen majority In this precinct. Its rejec
tion would mean a majority for Whltcomb
of thirteen vptes.
Judge Sutton held that Whltcomb as
county attorney had consented to the
change in polling places and was therefore
evtorped from taking advantage of It In
tho contest.
Chase, the successful contestant, is an
Indian and for this reason and because of
the fact the successful contestant will

Away with Heart
Diseaae.
Thomas F. Barry, a member of the Jury
that was hearing the suit of Peter E.
Olson against the Omaha Electric Light
and Power company before Judge Estelle,
died very suddenly at 1 o'clock Frlduy
morning of heart failure. His death camo
almost without warning. The death of
the Juror did not delay the progress of
tho case, however, as It was agreed by
the attorneys to continue with eleven
men In the box.
About a month ago Mr. Barry com
plained of feeling 111, but he ap; a ently had
entirely recovered. Thursday night he at
tended an entertainment and on the way
home said he felt a pain In his side, but
the members of the family did not think
muvh of It. Shortly before I o'clock Mrs!
Barry was awakened and found her hus
band 111. He' appeared to grow better for
a short time and then suddenly expired.
He was one of the earliest settlers In
Onraha, coming here in 1855, when he was
four years old. For a long time he was
a locomotive engineer on the Union Pa
cific, but recently has been on an engine
In the stock yards at South Omaha. He
leaves a widow and five children. The
funeral service will be held Sunday aft
ernoon at 2:30 o'clock from his home at
2012 North Twenty-first street and Sacred
Heart church and Interment will be at

The mayor's dog muzzling ordinance Is
In force In places. Few dogs affect the I
muzzle, but a large number will be "at

until such time as styles In dog headgears'
shall change. j
Not all of the dogs like this practical
isolation from the scones of their former ;
activities. Numerous are 'the complaints
and violent is the objection made In some
Instances. On North Twenty-fifth street'
there Is a dog-known and admired by all
of the people who reside in that part of
the city. This dog's owner Is lawabldingj
and believes In an unmuzzled dog as
earnestly as he believes In an unmuszled
press. He decided to tie the dog in the
yard for the period covered by the
proclamation. A window shutter on the:
shady side of the house offered the re- I
quired hitching place end the owner started
to work In full confidence that "SherJ" was

UNIONS NOT FOR SCHMITZ
Organised Labor Did Not Support Him
I.ant Time, Sara Miss
Helen Iwrtt,
"San Francisco is pleased to see Mayor
Schmlts occupying his present position,"
said Mies Helen Swett, secretary of the
rehahltatlon committee of San Francisco.
Miss Bwett is returning from the Confer
ence of Charities and Corrections held at
Minneapolla and (topped In Omaha to ex
amine the workings of the association here
and the method of Juvenlle work.
"Contrary to some Ideas," (he continued.
"Mayor Schmltx was not elected the last
time by the labor unlona as he was twice
before, but hia election was secured by
short sighted 'commercial Interests' which
hoped to profit by his admlnlftralion,. No
one rejoices more than the memlwra of the
labor unions at the fight agalnct graft, and
It Is earnestly believed the prosecution will
reach the bribe-giver as well as the bribe
taker, for it was the bribe-giver who Is
responsible for the present condition after
all.
"San Francisco Is rapidly recovering from
the effects of the earthquake and the work
ing classes will be better off than before

is being conducted somewhd along the
linea of your Associated Charities, render
ing aid where possible to persons who do-

about 28.100 applications for relief and
have put a large part of thu applicants In
a position to bo self-supporting.
"The Chinese quarter of the town Is being
rapidly rebuilt, Just ns picturesque, but far
more sanitary, than tho old one. The day
I left it was reported 40,(j0 Chinese had
returned from Oakland and other towns
to which they fled at the time of the earth
quake. The new houses In Chinatown are
of brick and the danger from fire will be
much less than heretofore.
'The I.atln quarter la now. entirely re
built Being outside of the fire limits, the
houses are frame and It Is almost Impossi
ble to find evidences of the fire, which
destroyed the place. The Italluns were
comparatively rich and were first to re
cover from the disaster.
"A new house Is completed In San Fran
cisco every forty minutes. That ahows
how the town Is growing. The town still
needs carpi ntera nl trlcklayers. C-immon
labor la not In such demand, but there Is
work for all who are there."
