PIEBITERS WANT BIG MEAL
Patrons ef Pnhlle Pap Katarally Of
pone Redaction of City
Tax Levy.
The attempt to reduce the tax levy for
city purposes naturally meets with eiposl
tion of the pay roll officials at the city
hall, who are plugging to get the council
to stand by the action of the committee of
the whole In fixing the amount at the
maximum limit permitted by the charter
a figure more than tlOO.CjrO more than eVer
before.
They claim that Mayor Dahlman haa ap
proved the course of the committee, al
though he may, . upon proper showing be
willing to accept a reduction of eoOO.000
in the sinking fund. x
"Money should he kept ss much as pos
sible In the hands of the people," said the
mayor, "and for this rensonI see no im
mediate necessity for retiring bonds. The
city csn borrow money cheaper than the
average taxpayer can, and as long as this
is so it will pay the tsxpayer to use his
money for his private affairs and pay his
proportion of the Interest on city war
rants." A forecast of the probable line-up of the
city council has been made by parties In
terested, end the showing is Ilka this:
In an overflowing treasury Council
man Zlmman Is outspoken for the
reduction demanded by taxpayers;
Johnson, Funkhouser, Jackson, Flsnsser
and Brucker- are expected to Insist upon
the big levy as reported by the committee
of the whole. Councilman Bridges would
also be placed In this list were it not for
the fact that hia antipathy toward the city
engineer would Imfel hlra to vote to c-jt
out $10,000 of the amount In the hands of
that official. The attitude of Council .an
Sheldon, McGovern. Davis and Hanson la
not known. Hanson generally votes with
Brldgea. and McGovern usually follows the
lead of Bedford.
The levy la to be finally determined Fri
day according to the present plans,, but it
would not be surprising It the matter was
passed to a later date.
CITY ACTUALLY FINDS SEWER
Ensrlnrer's Forre Discovers One that
Had Been Lost from the
Records.
The city engineer' office ha found a
sewer. The sewer had not Wandered away
from where It was carefully placed, but
when the sewer plat wss made this par
ticular sewer was not noted and for sev
eral years people enjoyed exemption from
storm water, while sympathetic officials re
gretted their Inability to relieve the situa
tion. Incidentally the discovery of this sewer
will reduce the expense of tne construction
Of the California street sower, which was
to hsve started at Sixteenth and California
street and run by a numbers of corners to
Twenty-fifth and Dodge streets. It will
now run to a point fifty feet east of Twenty-fifth
street, on Chicago street, and will
there connect with the sewer which was
lost, but Is now found. ,
The records of the city engineer's ' office
show that the sewer was built from Twenty-fifth
snd Capitol avenues to a point
fifty feet east of Twenty-fifth street, on
Chicago street, where It was first proposed
to lay paving on Twenty-fifth street, so
that the pavement would not have to be
disturbed after It should be laid. The
work was done by the city directly with
out contract, and for this reason there
waa not as extensive record as though a
contract had been made, and this is said
to account for the fact of Its nonappear
ance on tne sewer mas.

CANVASS ON COURT HOUSE
Sounding of Public Opinion ii Syi
tems.tica.lly Undertaken.
COUNTY BOARD WANTS HELP
Jarnra Who) Have Experienced Con
finement la Old Qnnrters Are
Depended On far Expres
sion at sentiment.
The active ranvasa to secure an ex
pression of opinion of taxpayers regard
ing the proposal to erect a new court houas
has been started and from now on peti
tions will be circulated In the different
communities of the county to determine
Just what the majority of the taxpayers
want. While the members of the County
board have not decided Just what kind of a
proposition to ssk an . expression on the
question has practical! simmered down to
whether or not tl.OTO.OOO in bonds shall be
Issued to put up a suitable structure on
the present court house block.
Aa a starter in the campaign for a new
building a petition signed by 426 cltltcns of
the couniy who have served on Juries in
the last year or two la being exhibited as
an evidence of the opinion of men who
had the best opportunly to see Just what
the conditions sre at the court house.
These Juror didn't petition for a new
building, but aaked the county authorities
for better quarters for the Jurors while
they ore" serving the public at tt a day.
The petition asks specifically for a reading
room In which the Jurors csn wsit their
turn to be called Into the box. At ytresent
they have to loaf about the dark corridors
of the building, with no place to sit ex
cept upon the railing around the opening
In the third floor. They also want better
Jury rooms. The ones provided at present
sre smslt and Illy ventilated and are de
clared by Jurors who have had 'to use
them to be a disgrace to the county.
Jnrors Are Looked To.
Those who favor a new, modern structure
are depending on aome of the taxpayers
who have served on Juries to help them
out. It la said that most of the jurors
become enthusiastic and persistent boosters
for a new building as soon as they are
released from service.
The commissioners and judges have had
several conferences over the request of the
Jurors for better quarters, but they de
clare It Is Impossible to provide them In the
present building owing to a lack of room.
Some time ago Judge Troup struck a re
sponsive chord In the heart of most ex
juror by suggesting jury quarters similar
to those which are being placed in the new
criminal court building at Chicago. There
provision is being made for the housing
and boarding of juror In the building, one
whole floor being devoted to the purpose.
In addition to sleeping rooms, baths, a
gymnasium and reading rooms are fur
nished for Jurors who have to be confined
during the trial of case. Thla plan. It la
asserted, could be adapted on a smaller
scale to the needs of Douglas county at a
saving In the expense of maintaining Juries,
aa at present when Juries are confined It Is
necessary to rent hotel quarters for them
and board them at the hotel. Owing to the
fact they have to be confined In strictly
private quarters, the - cost Is considerably
of an advance oter regular ratea.
The petition of jurors which Commis
sioner Kennard will use In the campaign
contains the names of prominent cltlxena
from all part of the county and tt Is
hoped to make It an effective document In
the canvass for a new building.

SON TO SUCCEED"" FATHER
W. A. Paxton. Jr.. Probaltly Will Be
come President of the
Iron Works.
W.- A. Paxton, Jr., Is mentioned by the
directors of the Psxton Sc. Vterllng Iron
works to succeed his father In the presi
dency of thai concern and A. J. Vlertlng
says he prohably will be elected. There Is
no Imperative necessity of sn Immediate
selection, so the directors may not meet
for several months.
Mrs. Ben Gallagher Is authority for the
statement that In all probability the Pax
ton Gallagher company will not elect a
preaident until the annual meeting In Jan
uary. No addition to the Paxton & Vlerllng
Iron Works will be made thla year. So
says Manager A. J. Vlerllng.
A year ago Mr. Vlerllng and the late Mr.
Paxton planned to erect this summer ait
addition to the plant which would doublo
Its capacity. The business had grown un
til the concern had a market for mom
Iron than It could turn out. It Is owing to
the difficulty In getting labor, both com
mon snd skilled, says Mr. Vlerllng, that
the plan has been abandoned for the pre
ent. Labor Is so scarce that It Is Imposst
ble even to get men enough to run the
plant st lts fullest rapacity, though dally
advertising Is done. Granted that this con
dition will prevail but a few months, an
other difficulty would have to be met In
the fact that the output would be fur
1 ther decreased during the work of en
larglng the plant. Present eontracta for
iron have to be met, so there will be no
building for the present. This decision waa
reached before Mr. Paxton's death.

RAINS LEAVE HEAVY DEBRIS
Bis Precipitation Makes Plenty of
Work for Street fen.
The street commissioner Is removing tha
accumulation of debrla from Twentieth
street In the vicinity of Poppleton avenue,
where It wss placed by the recent heavy
rains. Although several days hsvs elapsed
since the rain, Wednesday was the first
day that work could be done, aa the mud
was too firm to be washed away and too
soft to be (hoveled. Since Wednesday
morning sixty wagon loads of dirt have
been removed and this did not seem to
hsve msde any Impression on the mass.
"If one would learn the power of water,"
said Street Commissioner Flynn, "he should
visit the place where we are now working.
In former storms the water was content
to wash Iron covers from manholes and
carry them away. This tlms It not only
did this, but carried away about eight feet
of the top of the sewers with the pave
ment on top of that, and piled the bricks
In the mud at the bottom of the Incline.
"For three blocks along Twentieth street
the mud was a foot deep over the street
and when a part of the bank at the gov

wall with tt. It added to the oonfualon."

TILLMAN AND tiOCH HERE
Irrepreulbl Snath Carolina and
John Brown Kansas Go
Hand In Hand.
Scnstor Ben R. Tillman of South Csrollna
and Governor E. W. Hoch of Kansas were
guests at the Paxton Wednesday night en
route homeward from Hastings, where both
delivered addresses before the Hasting
Chautauqua.
A reporter for The Bee went to the Pax
ton to Interview Senator Tillman on the
subject of Bryan or a southern man aa the
democratic presidential candidate, hut
"Marse" Tillman' had souuTit his downy
couch and refused to be disturbed.
A similar denial of an Interview was had
in the case of Governor Hoch, who had also
retired.
It Isn't often that two such distinguished
statesmen appear at the same hotel at the
same time; Tillman the unreconstructed
senator and former governor of Irrepres
sible South Carolina, and Hoch the gover
nor of. the stats that gave the Immortal
John Brown Imperishable renown.
It waa a meeting of the political anti
podes, but Omaha slept on In peaceful
Ignorance of the conjunction of these his
torical circumstances. But what Incipient
possibilities lay In this fact! Memory went
back to the Missouri Compromise, the Ne-braska-Kansaa
Act, Nullification, the
tragedy of Harper's Ferry, Secession and
Fort Sumter.
Tillman and South Carolina; Hoch and
Kansas; what wonderful history Is linked
with these names and states, and still no
two more peaceful slumherer ever dwelt
I under the same roof than did these two
men at the Paxton Wednesday night.
They are out lecturing; at so much per
and harvest time Is no time for sectional
strife.

PENSION CHECK IS FORGED
Job Is Done So Cleverly that Paper
Is Readily Cashed at
I the Bank.
The postofflee Inspectors are trying; tef
locate one R. W. Lamp, who Is wanted for
passing a forged check belonging to John
T: Hobson, an old soldier. The check was
paid by the Arlington State bank of Arling
ton, Neb., and amounted to 130. Hobson'
name had been signed to the check and waa
endorsed by R. W. Lamp, the party who la
supposed to have passed It at Arlington.
The peculiarity In the case lies In the lack
of Information as to how Lump becams
possessed of the check. It was in payment
of the quarterly pension of John T. Hobson
for. the month of April, 19tr7. Hobson's home
befng at Red Oak. Ia. It was dated April
. 'and was paid at Arlington, Neb.. April
12. t appears thst Lamp tried to get tha
check cashed at three different banks in
Fremont, but he was turned down, as the
Fremont bank did not like the look of
things. It wss finally paid by an Inex
perienced clerk of the Arlington bank, but
Ihe moment the cashier saw the check and
double endorsement he knew something was
wrong and started in to find Lamp, but
Lamp had gone out of town and the Arling
ton folks are still In the dark.
Hobson alleges that the check and voucher
never reached him and the postofflee peo
ple at Red Oak Insist that the check nor
voucher had never reached Red Oak.
The facts of therase were made known
to the government authorities and a new
voucher and check were Issued to Hobsnn.
In the meanwhile the Arlington bank wilt
be the only ones out In the transaction.
FORTUNE IN WELL OF WATER
Wealth ta 9a-eted by Ihe Anns
that Comes When Lid
Is OS.
If the householder at 330S Burt street does
not become one of the most popular per
sons In Omaha, next Sunday when "the li'd"
Is on, It will be because sn analysis by the
city chemist Is not made public at that time.
On the Burt street property there Is a well
and the owner is In some doubt as to the
quality of the water. Wednesday a woman
visited the office of the Board of Health
rnd brought an oonce of water which she
drslred to have analysed. She was told the
quantity waa not sufficient and she must
bring at least a gallon of water. Thuraday
morning the gallon of water arrived. It
was brought In a Jug and carefully placed
on a table. A few hours later a visitor
pulled the cork from the Jug and th,e aroma
then arising brought up memorle of John
Barleycorn and an expert made the asser
tion that at least half a pint of alcohol had
combined with the water to produce the
gallon of liquid presented for analysis.
As the person who brought the Jug aa
seitod 11 contained nothing but water taken
from the well on the Burt street land those
who have examined the vessel declare the
owner has a fortune.
