MAYOR MAY VETO TAX LEVY
Says if City Can Do with Leu He Will
Cut Badgtt.
WANTS TO BE SURE OF JUDGMENTS
If Aay Claims Are to Be Paid Oar
Jim Mar Blast toe Ordlaoaee
(join a- to the. Charter
Limit.
Mayor Dahtman say he may veto the
190 maximum ta levy for the city l,150,
000 fixed by the democratic council and
Insist that the proposition of Councilman
Zimman to lower It at leail $50,000 be
adopted.
This he ssys he will do If he ascertains
that the city can get along on the lower
levy next year. He says he wants to look
Into the matter thoroughly before making
his decision and to be sure he Is right be
fore taking any action. .
"For one thing. I want to find out If the
city Is liable to have any Judgments to pay
next year," said the mayor. "This Inst
year we had nearly $50,000 to pay on old Jud
ments and we would have been strictly "up
against It' were It not that we had a bal
ance In the sinking fund. If some more of
these Judgments are coming up against the
city, then I believe we ought to maintain
the higher levy and! pay them when they
are entered and not allow them to draw
Interest. Then, again, I want to be pretty
sure thlt the legislature will do something
next winter toward changing the charter.
If It were not that we had a balance this
last spring with which to take up out
standing bonds we oould not have raised
more money for publlo Improvements and
street paving would have been at a stand
still. "The first year I was mayor I cut $125,-
000 from the levy, $50,000 In the sinking
fund and $75,000 In the general fund, and
1 got nothing but kicks asM cusses from
the beginning of the year to the close. I
had a hard time making the cut. fought
with the council all day, but finally I won
out and taxes for the year were lowered.
Everybody Jumped onto me with both feet
for It, however, and continued to Jump until
the time for the next levy came, and then
they wanted me to veto the council's
action. I said, 'No. sir, I will approve the
levy if It is $7,000,000.'
"But I have got all over that now. If
I think a lower levy will be better. I will
veto the council's action of Tuesday even
ing." HEAT MAKESPE0PLE STUPID
Ho Inniial a Omaha that People
Make All Sorts of Breaks
Tryingr to Stand It.
Omaha Is so used to moderate, even
temperature that when a. little spell of hot
weather comes, like the present. It Is dlf.
flcult for people to adjust themselves to It
"Never before In three days have so
many people blundered In front of street
cars, carriages and automobiles at Six
teenth and Farnam streets," said the po
liceman on the beat. "The heat seems to
make people so stupid they can hardly
walk along the street without running off
the sidewalk or being run over. Even the
horses seem to be stupid and would try
to walk straight through a street car or
over a street sweeper."
Fanning herself as she was alighting
from the street car at Sixteenth and Far
nam a colored woman of large propor
tions in a new white dress, fell backwards
to the pavement, but was unhurt, at 10
o'clock Wednesday. The street had Just
been sprinkled. In the language of the
wrestler the woman was "down." Both
shoulders touched the asphalt mat.
Five minutes later and one block west
Dr. W. F. Mllroy pulled his horse up Just
In time to prevent running over a street
sweeper who was moving his cart along
lastly and had his hat pulled down over
his eyes. Hardly had people begun to
breathe freely after seeing the close es
cape of the street sweoper, until a motor
cycle with a tin box on the front, ollmbed
the curb In front of the New York Life
building and stopped by hitting the Iron
railing in front of Victor White's coal
office, unseating the rider but not Injuring
him. Then a baggageman started across
the street In front of a street car, turned
his horse too short and the animal fell to
the pavement, blocking traffic until the
harness could be taken off.
"This Is Just the kind or weather when
every conductor has to tell people to
watoh out for the cars approaching In
the oppoalta direction when passing behind
street cars," said a rosd agent of the
Omaha dt Council. Bluffs Street Railway
company. "At Sixteenth and teaven worth
and Sixteenth and Howard streets we have
had a hundred hair raising escapes within
a few hours."

The train, of which Ous Rogers was en

bridge over the Northwestern railroad at

but the engine moved far enough to hit
Miller and knocked him down. The pilot
pushed him a short distance and partly
rolled over his head. The lert side of his
scalp was torn off and the skull frac
tured. His sternum -was considerably
crushed. When taken from the engir.e he
waa thought to be dead and the coroner
was called to take charge. When the am
bulance arrived he was found to be alive,
so was taken to the hospital. He was
given immediate attention. It is yet too
early to predict a recovery or the re
verse.
The man was carrying a grip and ap
peared to be a laborer Just leaving town.
He had no money nor anything of great
value. A letter was found In
his pocket containing his name. He has a

Mr. Taft'a Letter of Aceeotaace,
OMAHA, July 29-To the Editor of The
Bee: Mr. Taffs letter of acceptance Is
something far higher and broader than
the ordinary formality which attends upon
nominations to the presidency. It Is a
great state paper, one of a very few which
public men In our country have ever pro
duced. It Is even more. It Is In the nature
of a Judicial Judgment upon public ques
tions which now deeply concern the nation.
I am not wholly content with Mr. Taft's
fervid endorsement of the Roosevelt "poli
cies," but this was all discounted In ad
vance as sure to come, and is wholly re
lieved by the strong tone of "reassur
ance" with which he declares, with singu
lar force and felicity, that in every way
and among all the people, railroad corpora
tions and all other corporations and every
American cltlxen, rich and poor, high and
low, white, black or copper-colored, the
men of labor and the men of capital, shall
have equal and exact Justice under the
law. For fine candor, open declarations
and strong, simple and clear statement.
Mr. Taft's discussion of the paramount
questions of the times goes far to give him
new titles to greatness as an American
statesman, which has been long recognised
by the people of the country.
I also see In the remarkable letter a
bold and brave proclamation to the entire
American people which summons them,
by both argument and appeal, to rise up
and defend orderly government against
dangerous tendencies. Let every citizen
read and study this great document, espe
cially on the labor question, and the In
dictments of ths democratic platform.
which are peculiarly powerful. In this and
other ways It seems to me that he re
inforces appeal by argument which la
simply Invincible. All through this re
markable production I find such a spirit
of righteousness and Justice as to suggest
that of the Immortal Cleveland himself.
QKORQ1S U MILLER.
A Letter from Garfield Connty.
BURWELL. Neb.. July 2. To the Ed
itor of The Bee: Why should any repub
lican vote for Bryan? Please show me.
Soms are saying, "Give us a change."
When we have unbounded prosperity what
change can we get only for the worso,
unless we can get still greater prosperity,
and In all candor, I would ask, can you.
In the light of past history, expect
greater prosperity from a democratic ad
ministration? No doubt some democrats
would demand a change if they were in
heaven, but why any republican should
now seek It Is a problem hard to solve.
At any rate, what has Bryan done to de
serve the votes or confidence of tho peo
ple? This Is a question that is con
stantly asked but never answered. Has It
come to this, that endlesr talk without
performance of any kind Is the only
qualification exacted from a presidential
nominee? Do we want a man at the head
of this great nation who has done noth
ing but prophesy and promise? None of
his direful foreboding of 18(6 ever came
true, but the opposite happened always.
Then why In the name of reason should
we listen to his further predictions or
promises?
He preaches against bosslsm whllo he
Is himself the most tyrannical dictator
that over directed politics In this free re
public. Hill and Sullivan and Ouf fey and
many other democrats can testify to this
fact. A democrat cannot have an hon
est opinion or differ from his on any Is
sue without danger of being read out of
the party. The "Solid South" still stands
for this kind of dictatorship, but Bailey
and Williams and Tillman and Daniel
and Watterson and hundreds of other
democratlo leaders In the south are sulk
ing in their saddles, and Inwardly hoping
to see him go to defeat again in Novem
ber. What have they in common with
him? He prefers the spectacular Dahl
man or the bolting populist. Tibbies, to
them. If he ever had any chance to get
next to the eastern democrats since 180
he lost It by that Mad4son Sauare Gar.
den speech on government ownership of
rauroaas. lie would like to play for the
negro vote, a thing unheard of befo-e In
democratic candidate, but he dare not
mention the Brownsville Incident lu the
platform, for It would break his neck in
the "Solid South."
In private life Mr. Bryan is a good man
but political history must and will record
him little short of a demagogue. Rig-ht at
the present time his managers In Nebraska
are trying to capture the populivt vote by
methods that are reprehensible under the
primary law. All these things must con-
tlnually rise up against him like Banquo's
ghost at Macbeth's banquet, while Judge
laic, tne man of action, the man who does
things and who has been tried and found
competent and faithful, goes serenely on
lumutng every hope of his party snd
nation. Hundreds of thousands of demo
crats voted for Roosevelt and his policies
in i!H. and why should they not vote
for Taft. who is pledged to carrv out
those policies If elected? Young voters,
especially, should reflect on these things
ana cast tneir voles wisely. Read history
and then choose. No one denies but what
the republican party has made mistakes,
for it is only human to err. but Its glorious
achievements have passed Into history and
wm niumine us pages for ages to come.
We have the greatest respect for demo
crats of honest intentions, but what excuse
csn we make for republicans who are un
grateful for the blessings they have en
Joyed under republican rule?

TWELVE-STORY BANK HOUSE
Building to Be Erected by Omaha and
St. Louis Capital.
SIXTEENTH AND HARNEY SITE
State Bank Will Be Contacted nnd the
Enterprise Will Involve an la
vestment of One Mil
lion Dollars.
Bt. Louis and Omaha capital will organise
a state bank to be located In Omaha, build
twelve-story building and do a general
banking business.
Options have been taken on two lots, but
the building probably will be located on
the southeast corner lots at Sixteenth and
Harney streets, as negotiations already
have been opened with George tc Co. This
corner was originally selected by the Union
Paclflo Railroad company for the new head
quarters building, but the railroad company
and owners failed to come to an agreement.
The organisation of the state bank and
erection of the building Involves Sl.OOO.OW.
From llBO.Oon to $3(0,000 will be Invested in
lots and It Is plsnned to capitalise the bank
at something near 1500,000.
Local men who will be directors are David
Cole, Howard H. Baldrlge, F. D. Wead,
George Kelly, Monroe C. Steele and Joseph
R. Lehmer. It Is the plan for Mr- Steele
to become manager of the bank. He is at
present vice president of the Hobbs &
Jones company, wholesale grocers, snd Is
relative of the St, Louis business men
who propose putting their money Into
Omaha.
It la understood the capitalists of St.
Louis who will Invest In the bank and build
ing In Omaha already own a big trust com
pany In St. Louis, and the state bank in
Omaha will do as near a trust company
business as the state laws will permit. It
will. It Is given out, conform In every way
to the law, doing a general trust company
business under the banking laws, a pro
vision Which has been responsible for driv
ing trust companies from Nebraska.
"The success of the Institution means a
number of Industries for Omaha which
would now like to have their bonds under
written by some responsible Nebraska in
stitution," says a man on the inside.

save tremendously In lives of usefulness
as against lives of loss and of misery.
We will provide for a parenthood edu

train Its Immediate posterity.
Child labor laws, administered In a com
mon sense way, will do and are doing
great good In this day, this hour: they
will also lock the door against grave dan
ger In the future. In the children to
day abused, tied to unwarranted toll, op
pressed and repressed, behold lomorms'i
Incompetents, derelicts, walking and dan
gerous liabilities of the community and the
nation. In the children that are schooled,
controlled, properly directed and encour
aged, behold the child triumphant the fu
ture strong support of a nation's need.
We cannot condemn children to bad
conditions; but neither must we permit
them to drift Into evil environments. We
may not exactly control heredity; but so
ciety, the state, can see to it that robust
promise Is not destroyed In unhealthy ' sur
roundings, or by overwork In tender years.
Still, some work or oocupstlon Is neces
sary for many vigorous boys. If we would
save them from abasement that grows out
of Ignorance. Under our law as It sands
at present, we can make no sort of con
cession, even In vscatlon time, to children
under a certain age, which may bo set
down as 16; and I feel very earnest In main
taining that this condition . means giving
many of them up to an idleness that win
encourage vagabondage.
Danger lies no less In a too strict and
unresponsive law than In a too lax law,
n my Judgment. We In Nehrsska are now
in a position to lead effectually a move
ment for the establishment of the happy
mean between these two extremes.
'? v'rtue of manual training. Its need,
Its holding power, and Its Influence, there
will be no dlffeience ol opinion, among
those competent to speak. It is the good
irt, that Is half the battle; it provides
the fit msn, who always makes the best
race; but it must be complete enough to
it, H of the realm of haphaiard
things. The summer vacation, now so often
wasted and dangerous to boyish morals in
greater or less degree, but always In some
degree might very wisely be sacrificed
in part at least either to manual training

where men would not be hired in any event.
Glorious expectations cannot be realized

Introduced as one of the nation s leading
orators. Governor Frank Hanly of Indiana
was no disappointment to the large as
semblage and with a brilliant flow of
English delivered in a clear pronunciation
and with a forceful style, Governor Hanly
paved the way for the future Inmatee of
Nebraska penal institutions earning their
own freedom through the workings of the
Indeterminate sentence law. He said:
Nine years ago when the Indeterminate
sentence law was passed In the Indiana
legislature, I, as a lawyer, was opposed
to Its passage, but after witnessing its
results since that time I am now one
of its most enthusiastic exponents. The
Indeterminate sentence law fixes a maxi
mum penalty for each of the many crimes
and takes the power of sentence away from
a Jury who now return only a finding of
the guilt or Innocence of a defendant. If
guilty, should the crime be burglary, the
defendant Is sentenced to from three to
twenty-one years Imprisonment. Ths State
Board of Parole Is composed of membeia
of the bord of trustees of the penal In
stitutions who are clothed with the power
to parole a prisoner, only after he has
served the minimum sentence. Under the
old law when a prisoner had served his
sentence or had boen paroled or pardoned,
he was given one suit of clothes. $J in
money, taken to the prison gates and
turned adrift In the world with no sym
pathisers and with the mark of Imprison
ment upon him, barred from employment.
In a short time he was returned to the
prison convicted of another crime against
toclety. Today the prisoner Is not sent
out until a place of employment is found
for him, from which he reports monthly
At regular intervals he Is visited by an
agent of the state, who hears his com
plaints and In every manner endeavors
to better his condition. His liberty is in
his own keeping.
Since tho establishment of the new law
$.000 men have been paroled, of which
number. 65 per cent have made good. Good
has been made out of bad, a self-supporter
out of a dependent and a law shldtng
rltisen of a law-breaking cltlcen. Under
the old law but 26 per cent of those
paroled made good. This question of
criminology brings an Issue In the form of
a challenge at the feet of Christian men
and women, an Issue that Is nation wide
and Involves the fate of our most sscred
Institutions, and the republic's manhood
snd womanhood.
UPLANDS OFFSET LOWLANDS
Crops on High Cironnd Helped sT Rain
More Than Low Oronnd Is
Injared.
"The crops of the uplands will far mors
than offset any loss by too much water In
the lowlands." said W. L. Park Wednesday
on his return from a trip across the state.
"Only about 16 per rent of the Nebraska
land Is low lying and I estimate that where
the heavy rains have injured the crois on
the lowlands 1 per cent, those sams climatic
conditions have bettered the crop on the
higher lying lands over 10 per cent. The
growing crops of Nebraska certainly look
fine."
Rainfall last week was general on the
Nebraska lines of the Burlington except on
the Schuyler line and the Ashland-Sioux
City line, and from York to Slromsburg.
Corn has consequently made splendid prog
ress snd the Indications are about the
same as , for the week before. The tem
perature was generally high and favorable
for corn.
In spite of the reports to the contrary the
general superintendent reports:
"I do not recall a seaaon before In which,
aa in this year, there Is tpo report of dam
age to small grain by rust, blight or peat.
No report has reached me this year in
dicating damage from any of thess
sources."
Spring whest will give an average yield
Oats are said .to be of excellent quality
and will average about thirty-five bushelf
to the acre. This should maks the crop of
great value, especially as there was n
damage from blight or rust. The potato
crop la good. All kinds of fruit Is yielding
better tuan anticipated and the prospeclf
are good for fruit which has not yet m
tured. Ths second crop of alfalfa waa t
cellent and the prairie hay Is ready to cut
and Is a fine crop.
My little boy, 4 years old had a severe

NEBRASKA WHEAT 13 GOOD
GsrtnatBt Inspectors In the Field
Report Hlsrher Grade Oralas
Than for Many Years.
Inspectors from the Department of Agri
culture are In Omaha almost every day
enroute to the wheat fields of Nebraska,
Kansas and South Dakota to get some
definite Idea of the way the wheat crop
will materialise and learn something as to
the quality of the present crop.
While not permitted to give out any
great amount of Information, the Inspec
tors have Informed Secretary E. J. Mc
Vann of the Omaha Grain exchange that
the wheat is of unusually high grade and
the yield will be heavy. The Inspectors are
authority for the statement that not for
years have Nebraska and Kansas produced
such a good wheat crop.
Receipts in Omaha, like those at other
primary markets are heavy and threaten to
force the price down several cents.
