Whereas, The Commercial club has ben Allod toatnthrr for the purpose of conslder ffng tha proposed Issue of I1.0hj.Oik) bond! I for the building of a court house, and Whereas. All the speakrrs at aald meet ing. Including all county commissioners, representative of the district bench, at torney and business men unite In dwlaxlng that there la gnat need of additional spare nd Improved facilities for the transaction of the county' business; therefore be It Resolved. That It Is the sense of the Com ' merclsl dub of Omaha that Douglas i county should provide such facilities a ra needed and that the county commis sioner be. requested to determine what 1 necessary and thereafter to submit to a special election the question of voting bond to build an adequate court house. This resolution was passed at a meeting of the genera! membership of the Com- I merclal club Friday evening. The discus alon on the question lasted more than an hour, Including addresses from the county commissioner and a spirited debate be tween member of the club. It was offered Introduced by Fred D. Wead, declaring It It was offered after County Commission ers Kennard and Solomon had spoken In favor ot submitting to the voter the ques tion of new court house bonds; Commis sioner Brunlng had vigorously opposed It and Commissioners Ure and Tralnor had declined to state definitely their position on the subject. ' J.iP.' Breen opposed the resolution, saying the county needed the building and expense should not stand In the way. It would 'mean, he said. Just the price of four beer 'annually to the man with a $1,000 home. I J. A. Sunderland took the same position. Ha waa In favor of asking the commis sioners to tell the people Just what the oounty needed and then allow the people 'to vote. B. B. Bruce was called upon. "We are contemplating these Improve ments at a time when every hour of labor and every ' bit of material Is a high a ) It will be In the next ten years and higher man iiwm m inosi vi ui num. ho - bense will be too high. I am not In favor of submitting the bond proposition, because bonds usually carry." . Can Afford to Drop It. "It occurs to me," said Luther Drake, "that if there is not such a universal de mand for a new court houae the county , commissioners can come before us united and advocate it, we can afford to drop the propositions. I consider it a moat Inoppor tune time to attempt to sell $1,000,000 of Douglas county bonds. The condition of the bond market Is not such as would war rant the attempt." " Z. T. Lindsay, chairman of the municipal affairs committee of the Commercial club, which committee ' reported 'the county needed a court house,' spoke In' defense of his report. .. J. C. Klnsler asked whether the present court house had been paid for and learned from 'J. P. Brern that S,000 of the court house bonds had been retired and $300,000 bonds were still Outstanding. Judge Kennedy believed the county needed a court house and the present one should not be changed or patched up. ' P. E. Sanborn, a member of the munici pal affairs committee, said such a build ing as has .beeri suggested by the county commissioners would mean an expenditure of S1.SOO.000. He thought the county needed a II,. 000,000 court house and suggested the business men of the city ought to take a vote on how large a building the county needed nd how much money , they , thought It eould afford to spend. -.- What Commission;' Ray. Prevlou to the debate between the Com mercial club members, each member of the county board had been called upon for his opinion. Mr. Solomon said if the population of the county Increased as rapidly In future as it had in the last few years, a levy of 114 mills would be required to care for the Interest on $1,000,000 bonds and retire them In thirty-four years at the outside, possibly In twenty-live or twenty-seven years. Mr. Ure admitted he didn't know as much about the matter as he could wish. He aald he figured an Item which Mr. Solomon forgot, that of the increased cost of main tenance, which Itself would require a levy of 4 of a mill. Mr: Kennard' spoke In detail of the need M'GOVERN THRASHES HOODLUM City Councilman I, Irks Insnlter of Women and Then Plates Illm t'uder Arrest.

When day dawned on Thlrty-nrst ave nue Friday two dogs lay stretched stiff and cold on that thoroughfare between Dodge and Davenport streets. One was a bulldog and the other, a cur. They were riddled with buckshot. ' "Who killed Cock Robin?" was a ques tion which did not interest the people of the neighborhood. They wanted to know who killed Tlge and Sport. For a year or more dogs have been leaving their car casses lying about that vicinity, while their spirits took flight to dog heaven. But the mystery wss solved later In the day. The man who did the deed is sup posed to be B. A. Pease, special watchman of the district west of Turner park and the Nemesis of bad dogs.
