COMMISSION PLAN KNOCKED
(Continued from First Page )
keep In their houaea, and that therefore
thrre ia more drinking.
Of the Georgia prohibition law and ita
working., Mayor Joyner said:
"In the first place, the prohibition law in
Oeorgla ia peculiarly worded. It doe. not
j) rev en t the sale of malt or alcoholic
drinks, but la so worded as to prohibit the
aale of Intoxicating liquor.. Our atate
court of appeals haa, therefore, held that
beverages of all kinds can be sold except
those which, If taken to excess, will pro
duce Intoxication. Immediately following
the handing down of this decision a large
number of saloons In Atlanta, were opened
for the sale of what we call 'near beer,'
which is held by the prohibitionists to be
nothing but beer and which la held by the
saloonlsts to be what Its name Indicates,
for the reason that It does not contain a
sufficient percentile of alcohol to be
classed as beer. Th city has undertaken
arbitrarily to regulate these 'near beer'
saloons and so far haa succeeded In doing
so for the reason that the saloonlsts have
not resisted the law despite the far', that
numerous attorneys have held nat the
city baa no right to refuse a license to
anyone to conduct a business and can only
take action after the plane has been
proven to be a nuisance.
Near Bm Dealers..'
"The near beer' dealers, however, have
consente'd to regulations, and nearly all of
tfc restrictions that were formerly thrown
around the liquor traffic In Atlanta now !
apply to 'near beer' saloons. The only
good effect of the "near beer' saloon so far
as I have been able to notice Is that they
have a tendency to prevent blind t'scrs
from operating In Atlanta.
"It Is estimated by those who say they
know, after an examination of the records
of the Postofflce department and tho
Southern Express company, that $3.(00 per
day la being sent away from Atlanta for
whisky. Naturally this drain apon At-
lunta Is hurting the merchants, but the
prohibitionists are very well satisfied and
conteni that the law pleases them with
the exception of the sale of 'near beer,'
which they are now attempting to have
discontinued. Whether they will succeed Is
a matter for conjecture, but certainly tho
tty government of Atlanta will enforce
whatever laws are passed by the legisla
ture for the government of the-cities ot
Oeorgla. It appears, however, that the leg
islature Is willing to have 'near beer" sold
In G orgla, as Is Indicated by the fact that
very recently the general assembly placid
a tux of $JMI per annum on 'near beer1 Bi
loons."
Questionable In Toronto.
"It Is a question whether or not public
opinion would sustain any more rigid leg
islation at the present time, but public
opinion strongly endorses the exiting law
which has done much good in restrain
ing the traffic," said Joseph Oliver, mayor
of Tronto, Canada, on the subject of the
liquor problem, and mere especially the
liquor laws In force In his country. "The
number of licenses to be Issued Is limited
to a certain maximum fixed by the legis
lature and then the people in the cllic
can cut this down to a stUl smaller num
ber. The limited number, therefore, muliei
a Ucensa a valuable franchise. The law
provides that a license shall be forfeited
If the holder Is convicted of three viola
tions of the liquor' law within two years.
This puta the men very strictly on their
good behavior, and the law Is well observed."
Addresses on the subject ot "The Liquor
Problem In the Citiea" were also delivered
by Mayor Silas Cook of Kaat St. Louis,
III.; Mayor H. C. Bchaffer of Rock Island
and Mayor II. A. Schunk of Dubuque.
Regulation of Traffic.
"There is no need to call the attention
of this body to the misery and crime re
sulting from the liquor traffic," sulci
Mayor Graham of Wichita. "You know
that well. The proposition, then. Is regu
lation or prohibition. My reply is regula
tion until prohibition. Whatever may be
the method of handling the liquor busi
ness, law enforcement Is fundamental and
must prevail. Prohibition In our cities has
been a theory; It Is now coming to the
experimental stage."
Calling attention to the argument so often
used that closing saloons hurt; a town or
city, the mayor of Wichita then went on
to quote some figures to disprove this,
figures showing the wonderful growth of
Kansas City, Kan., during the last eighteen
months with no saloons. He said:
"Building permits issued during the
eighteen months ending September SO, 1908,
amounted to $2,000,000, as against $1, 100.00
for the previous eighteen months with open
saloons.
Real estate valuation In April, 1906, was
estimated by the assessors to be $23,673,870.
In April, 1908, it was assessed at $J9,696,S5.
"Instead of the tax rate being higher
we now have a 12-mill rate, as against
about 17 mills actual valuation In the lust
few years. This, however. Is largely due
to the workings of a new tax law which
took effect this year requiring the assess
ment to be based on actual valuation.
"Business rooms vacated by the closing
of saloons were Immediately occupied by
some legitimate business at as high or
higher rental.
"More public work Is under construction
than ever before In the history of the city;
sewer and drainage system costing $500,000
are now building; $;o0,000 has been spent
for paving and contracts let for streets
that amount to $2u0.00 more; $160,000 has
been expended for bridges and public build
ings. Our Increase In population over last
year has been 10 per cent, and desirable
store rooms or residences are In great
demand. Bank deposits also show a big In
crease." Commission la Knocked.
Municipal government by commission
was torn to pieces by the delegates In a
protracted discussion Friday morning, de

Des Molnea, and C. H. Huston, holding a
like position in Cedar Rapids. Mr. Huston
delivered an address In favor of the sub
ject Thursday, but discussion was post
poned until the following day. This dis
cussion was entered Into by delegates from
the four corners of the continent.
"Municipal government by commission
la unAmerlcan," declared Hugo Grosser of
Chicago, the first speaker. "It puts Into
the hands of four or five men 'the entire
legislative, executive and Judicial power,
and for my part. I would rather have a
few Bath House Johns and Hlnky Dinks,
for they represent the people, and despite
them, no one can point to any scandal In
the Chicago city council within the last
fifteen years."
" David E. Hlneman of Detroit told the
delegates that he considered the commis
sion plan too much of an experiment aa

lis adopted It It would wait and aee how

"We have no Bath House Johns or Hiuky

corrupt politicians. If you throw the sun
light of publicity on them they will not
long remain corrupt. We have a sort of
compromise In Detroit, four or five com
missions handling the police, fire, water
and a few other things, and we have had
no trouble In fifty years, but we also h;ive
our city council and Board of Kducatlou."
favors Free Kleld.
"In my country anybody can run for any
thing without aeklng the permission rf any
one," said Joseph Oliver, muyor of Toronto
Canada. "I fall to se what difference it
makes whether you have commission gov
ernment or the oid trlud and true rlan,
but in Canada we put the responsibility on
the heads of the departments, not cn tho
mayois."
Comptroller Hockens of Torca'o also
talked on the subject and said that full
publicity was given all acts of the city
council b fore final action was taken and
that no one had cause for grievance.
City Engineer Roscwater entered the d s
cubs! in and addressed the delegates at
some length.
"The great failure of municipal govern
ment la that every few years the men who
have experience and know how to manage
the affairs of their departments are turned
out to make room for political proteges,"
said Mr. Rosewater. "The fire and police
departments are not changed with every
political administration, why then rhouid
the heads of the public works departments
and the clerks conversant with their work
be change l? The commUrlon plan will fail
unless It starts out with civil service."
Resolutions Adopted.
A resolution was adopted by the conven
tion thanking for courtesies extended the
mayor, city council and other Omaha of
ficials, the order of Ak-Sar-Ben and the
Flks, General Morton, the Union Pacific,
the packing industries and the telegraph,
companies. The resolution also acknowl
edges the space devoted to publication of
the activities of the convention by the pa
pers of the city.
Another resolution urges that depart

Inspecting and engineering, hereafter meet

It was also voted to go on record as

BOl'QIETS FOR COJIVENTIOX CITY
Delegates Praise Omaha's Entertain
ment of the League.
"It has been a great convention," said
President J. Barry Mahool," and Omaha
has proven a royla host. You can go as
far aa you like In quoting me In praise of
the quality and quantity of the attentions
paid us. I have never attended a letter
meeting of the league. The delegates form
the most representative body ever at hand,
all parts of the country being delegated,
and the spirit has been excellent. Interest
In the papers has been continuous, al
though some of tha addresses were ex
ceedingly technical. We are all glad wo
came."
"Oh! Omaha lias done fair to middling
well," declared Mayor Rlddlck of Norfolk,
with a twinkle In his eye. "Speaking se
riously," he continued, "we have been sur
prised at the amount of care and thought
fulness exercised In making us comforta
ble and providing for our entertainment.
Members of the reception committee huvo
been at hand wherever we turned and not
tha slightest detail was overlooked by
them. We thought wa did pretty well In
Norfolk last year, but Omaha haa gone us
several better."
"If we ever get the convention at Wil
mington," asserted W. P. White, president
of tho city council of that city, "we shall
show Omaha delegates by deeds what we
think of the treatment we have received
here. In the meantime, If any residents
of this city come to us for other conven
tions, we shall take care of them as
courteously and as lavishly as we have
been treated here."
"The convention has been a good thing
for us," said Vice President Silas Cook
of East St. Louis, "and a good thing for
Omaha, too. I mean that these representa
tive men from all over the continent will
go home with a keen sense not only of the
courtesies shown them, but with a vivid
realisation of the commercial Importance
of this -city. Eastern men In particular
have been Impressed. I know It, because
they have told me so. We westerners did
not need to be convinced, but some of the
men from the other side of the Alleghenles
needed to be shown. They have been."
W. M. O'Bryan, mayor of Owenshoro,
Ky., was the only delegate from that state.
Mayor O'Bryan Is froifl the same city in
which Ury Woodson, democratic national
committeeman for Kentucky, lives, but the
mayor says that if Mr. Woodson haa much
Influence in the nation at large, he has
but little In his home city.
Mayor O'Bryan Is a republican and eleven
of the twelve councllmen and one of the
legislators from the city district belong to
the grand old party.
"Tell the people of Omaha that" the en
tire delegation from the state of Kentucky,
that good old southern state of hospitality,
was never more warmly received than In
this city, which Is supposed to be in tho
wild and wooly west," said Mayor O'lsryan.
"Though the weather has been a little
cooler than where I come from and though
mint Jullps are not as plentiful ss down
there, I have had the time of my life and
appreciate the welcome tendered."
"Omaha is very near being the banner
western community for taking care of Its
guests," declared Dr. Frederick J. Cleve
land of New York, one of the leading men
at tho convention. "It has been a most
successful meeting from every standpoint."
Members of the Columbus, O., delega
tion Joined the chorus of praise over the
treatment of the delegates. "PraiBe of the
hospitality of the city one ia visiting in,
is often a perfunctory matter," said At
torney B. M. Baldrlge of the Ohio town,
"but In this case every one means It, and I
am sure we feel the same way. Never be
fore have we visited a city at convention
time where the preparations for treating
guests had been so thoroughly planned,
and carried out In so genuine a desire to
entertain."

WHEN THE KIDNEYS GIVE OUT
Do you ever feel that you simply
can't feo any further that you must
have rest for that lame and aching
back relief from that constant dead,
tired feeling freedom from those
stabbing, darting pains?
This is the condition that so often
conies at middle age, bringing with it
an extreme nervousness and Irritabil
ity that makes others think you
"cranky" and "hard to get along with."
Likely your kldneyg are worn and
tired and need help. In any machine
there Is one part that works the hard
est and gives out first. The kidneys
work night and -day, removing from
the blood the uric acid and other waste J
created by overuse of strength and en
ergy. Naturally a life of unusual ac
tivity doubles the duties of the kidneys,
and in time the strain tells.
With healthy kidneys, one has a.
good chance to live long, but weak kid
neys afflict old age with great discom
forts. The back becomes bent and
lame, rheumatism is chronic, eyesight
fails, and too freguent or involuntary
passages of the urine cause embarrass
ment by day and loss of sleep at night.
Doan's Kidney Pills bring new
strength to old backs, and quick relief
to weakened kidneys. They banish
backache and rheumatic pain, and reg

Wm. H. Sage, living at 4211 Bur

fully demonstrated to me some years
ago. I bad been suffering from kid

bad severe pains in my back and across
the region of my kidneys, and, when I
caught cold or overexerted myself, my
suffering was always Increased. My
work at that time required me to be In
