LOBECK WAITS FOR OUR JIM Foregoes Planting of Gubernatorial Boomlet on Arbor Say. GIVES MAYOR AN' EVEN BREAK Besldea, II Wishes to. Comply with Proclamation of Governor Shel don to Desist from Labor on That Day. For a two-fold reason, C. O. Lobeck, ocmplroller of tha city of Omaha, did not plant his gubernatorial boomlet tree Ar bor day, but will wait until after Mayor Jim returns from his bear hunt Ona of the reasons why the comptroller decided not to set out his little boomlet at this time is because the governor of Nebraska recommended that all cltliens de sist so far as possible from labor on Arbor day. Mr. Lobeck says it would take work to get his boomlet started, and aa the ex ecutive recommends no work on this day, ha decided to abide by the mandate. The other reason Is that the comptroller promised the mayor a few days before ha started on his hunt after big game In the Rockiea that he would await his return before making an announcement and thereby giv Our Jim an "even shake. The mayor thanked the comptroller for hla consideration and is said to have offered the latter th chance to respond to tha toast, "Our Next Governor," when Dahl man haa his grand bear barbecue. Lobeck says he does not know whether ha will take this chance to announce his candi dacy for the office of governor it Nebraska, but hints that the mayor himself may an nounce the comptroller's candidacy, Jim Prefers Mayoralty. "Now, I don't say this, remember, but friends of Dahlman say he would rather be mayor another term than run for gov ernor," says Lobeck In support of his frail belief that Jim himself may launch the candidacy of his local political opponent for gubernatorial honors. "Before Mayor Dahlman left for Wyom ing I told him that I would not announce my candidacy for governor on Arbor day, but would wait until his return and than wa could break even. I don't think much of this railroad commissioner business, but will take a shy at the governorship. Yes, t know that Sheldon will be a hard man to beat and It might be easier to win out as railroad commissioner, but If I csn de feat Sheldon the glory Is all the greater, you know," says Lobeck. The comptroller planted two trees on Arbor day, a hard maple named "Governor Dahlman" and a soft maple named "Gov ernor Lobeck." Lobeck says ha Is going to see which grows the faster and read the signs thereby and tell his fortune In tha aeavea of his two maple treey Soft maple trees, grow much faster than hard maples, therefore the reason for the tag ging of the soft maple with tha name of "Governor Lobeck." Mayor Dahlman will ba away from Omaha for two or possibly three weeks. During his absence President Johnson of tha counsel Is acting mayor. The Jack sonlans call the acting mayor "Jack" John son and the Dahlmanttea call him "Jim" Johnson, but to all tha acting mayor pre sents a smiling countenance and answers sweetly. Lac Curtain Sale.

NEW INDUSTRY FOR OMAHA Nebraska-Iowa Stamp Vending: Com panr Organised, with Head quarter Here. Prominent Omaha business and profess ional men have completed tha organisation of the Nebraska-Iowa Stamp Vending com pany, a corporation which will have ita principal headquarters in this city, but its operations will extend throught eleven states and territories. Tha corporation Is organised under the laws of the state of Nebraska. " Its capital stock Is fixed at 1300,000 In shares of a par value of 110 each. Tha purpose of the company, as set forth in its charter, is to operate tha Brlnkerhoff postage stamp vender and money changer in th state and territories of Nebraska, Iowa, Colorado, South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana,' Idaho, Utah, Nevada, Arlxona and New Mexico. It Is a machine approximately the site of a large cash register, which automati cally vends t-cent postage stamps in quan tities of from one to torty-nine, at the op tion of the purchaser and It also gives change in return for any coin from a nickel to a dollar, providing the coin is a good one, tha machine rejecting foreign coins as well as slugs and counterfeits. Thus the intending purchaser of postage stamps drops in his coin and the machine delivers him the number of stamps he desires and then computes and delivers whatever change may be due him. For this service the machine always keeps 1-cent over and above the cost of tha stamps, on each transaction. It is the Intention of the company to retain control of these machines for all time, but to Install them in drug stores, hotels and depot free of charge. F. H. Brlnkerhoff, the Inventor of this machine, has returned from Washington, D. C, and exhibited the machine in the postoffice department building. This was private and for tha benefit of the post- office officials. The machine uses a spec ial nonprioratea postage atamp furnished by the government. This machine also change money so that a customer may purchase, on demand, ninety-nine cents for a dollar, forty-nina cents for a half dollar and so on down.

MORSMAN SAYS RIGHT IS O.K. Telephone Lawyer Says Council'! Ac tion Will Come to Naught. COMPANY HAS PERPETUAL TITLE Right to Streets, He Asserts, Cannot B Abrogated Now, na It Proceed v from Ordinance Antedat ing; Stat Law. That nothing can or will "come of the council resolution to investigate the fran chise held by the Nebraska Telephone com pany with the view of reclaiming the streets or of exacting a royalty from the company, is the opinion of W. W. Morsman, attorney for the company. Mr. Morsman says he has not examined tha franchise for fifteen years, but is positive no flaw can be found in the document and is also quits sure the franchise grants the Ne braska Telephone company rights to use the streets perpetually. "Tha Nebraska Telephone company Is acting under a plain and original ordinance passed seventeen years ago, some seven or eight yeara before the state law was enacted requiring a vote by th people of the grant ing of franchises," says Attorney Morsman. "The ordinance is similar to those passed in Fremont and other Nebraska cities which the courts have . held sound. Fremont, several yeara ago, started to cut down our poles, but 'we went lrM' court and won. This franchise or ordinance, in Omaha, is valid and I am sure we are not 'In tha sams boat' with the traction and elcctrla light companies, even If It is supposed that these companies are usurping the streets." What tn Ordinance Hold. The telephone franchise No. a07, was passed October 4, 1890, and gives th com pany the right to plaoe conduits in the streets, requiring the company not to tear up more than two blocks of the street at a time and providing It to put up a bond of $.0,000 for th faithful performance of its duties and to guarantee the city and private individuals against injury or loss. Councilman Funkhouser Is of the opinion that the Nebraska company has not given a bond to the city, and in declining to give his opinion as to the question of validity of the franchise or ordinance, says it will do no harm to investigate the telephone question while th council Is in the investi gation business. ' Councilman Bridges, who Introduced the resolution to investigate the Bell Telephone company, made the statement that tha company ought to be paying a large royalty to the city. Acting Mayor Johnson holds to this position and says the city ought to be receiving pay for the use of its streets. WOMAN STILL WANTS RIGHTS Hack in Court with rear that An other Blan Will Kill Her Hnaband. Mrs. Laura Goldberg appeared again in police court Wednesday, wearing the same red polkadotted walBt, with her arms full of babies and a small army trooping at her heels. She came to appear against Mose Fiddler, who, she alleged, had per mitted one of his children to push one. of her children. Mrs. Goldberg has kept the attaches of the police court In misery for a week by her persistence In trying to "get her rights." Her husband is a cobbler and she declares that Fiddler will kill him. When asked what reason Fiddler would have for anufflng out the light of life of her spouse she shrffgs her shoul ders (her arms being full of babies) and declares that such is at any rate the pur pose of Fiddler. Fiddler failed to appear tn court and hla bond was forfeited. Mrs. Goldberg, after protesting that shej'wsnts her rights" until polica court closed, was finally led away by b.r husband, still de claring that she "wants her rights."

CHOI'S GIYE GOOD PROMISE After Looking- Over the West Insur ance Official Dec 1 4 fondltlone Warrant Reduction May 1, as Money la Easier. As a result of the prosperity of the west, eastern insurance companies loaning money in Omaha and on' Nebraska farms, have decided that the Interest rate will ba re duced to the same percentage as before the panic. , One of the first to receive the notice was Thomas Brennan, financial agent of the National Life Insurance company of Ver mont, which company has some $lS,0on,0iX) loaned in Nebraska, and at one time owned over 100 pieces of Omaha real estate, anrnunced that It would be Impossible for Several of the large Insurance companies which resumed making loans February 1, them to make loans at the old rates, which were between 44 to 8 per cent. Tha finan cial agents were told that no eastern com pany could place money for less than 1 per cent mora than they had been receiv ing. This caused the rates to creep up to 6H to 6M and 7 per cent. Agriculture tha Key. But a few months' trial was all that was necessary to convince the eastern finan ciers that the west la just as sound as It ever was. They found tha master key to the whole situation to be agriculture. When they received the government report last week that the winter wheat harvest looked like 493,P00,0u0 bushels on an April I percentage of 91. S, compared with C9.S a year ago, they decided to "loosen." Agricultural returns worth 17.500,000,000 are the promise of the spring and may be the frutatlon of the autumn. Tha presidents cf the great life insurance companies holding immense reserves have been to the west or sent their representatives out to see for themselves. They could not even find a cloud scudding across the agricultural sky and returned to the east to put a new elec trification into dead business wires. Banks Full 'of Money. The new rates, or rather the rates which were received for money before November 1, 1907. will go into effect May 1. Applica tions for farm and city loans are pouring Into the offices of the financial agents In Omaha, but all new loans will be made from Vk to 1 per cent cheaper after May 1. One of the reasons given by Insurance companies for being willing to place money In the west af the old rata Is the fact that the money Is pouring Into the banks as It never poured before. Even those of New York are receiving larger deposits and a table furnished by one of the eastern com panies shows the three , accouats of tha New York clearing house banks in excel lent condition.
