Ta-i i laiyortaaU COUNCIL STIFLES INDUSTRY Brick Tardi Cannot Locate on Trackage if Ordinance Passes. CITIZENS . AFRAID OF SMOKE Wool Rather Pay several Dollars Per Thonaao to Uet Brlrk tram Kaasaa Tana Have Klla are Here. The brick making Industry in Omaha will be limited and no more brick yards will be allowed within the city limits provid ing the council concurs In the report of the committee of the whole and passes an ordinance prohibiting extending this Industry. The committee yesterday after noon recommended the ordinance for pass age. Councilman Bridge voicing the only objection. , J. Herman Krittcnbrlnk, a South Omaha manufacturer of brick, applied for a iwrmlt to establish a yard at Thirty-sixth and Wright streets. Omaha, but he was met with the objection of about 2X property owner, who sent a petition to the council protesting, against the proposed yard, which, they declared, would be a nuisance. This protest was received, but Instead of refusing a permit to establish a brlck ysrd st Thirty-sixth and Wright street or the Immediate vicinity, the council de cided to prohibit them anywhere In the city. There I no ex-post facto provision in the ordinance, and those kilns now established will be allowed to operate. Councilman Bridges exerted himself tre mendously In behalf of the brick manufac turer and made a strenuous speech In the council chamber, but all for naught. Baalaeaa sne Aroaaed. "Her we are trying to build up a greater Omaha, but whenever anyone come along and attempt to spend his money In es tablishing a new enterprise which would give employment to core and scores of men, we shut ttie door of the city In his face and tell him to clear out," said the councilman. "How In the name of Caeaar are we going to build up a city with tac-. tics of this sort? Brick Is shipped to Omaha every day from Kansas and Mis souri. If we had more kilns in this city so that the supply could meet the demand, we would not need to send our money out of the city and it would stay in Omaha and go Into the pockets of Omaha work men." Citizens, some of whom lived a mile from the proposed brick yard, objected on ac count of the smoke which would Issue from the plant, but Mr. Bridges declared the smoke would not be half as dangerous as the gas tank which the council refused to move. "And gaa tanks blow up every little while and kill scores of people, but no one ever heard of a. brick klin blowing up," said the councilman. 9145,000 for Engine Houses. The committee of the whole also recom mended for passage the ordinance submit ting to a vote of the people tha proposition of Issuing bonds In the sum of $146,0 0 to buy tc and erect fire engine houses. This cams up in the council last week, but Councilman Zimman succeeded In getting It referred to, the committee of the whole for further Investigation. Thi he did In the hope that the council would agree to a saving of $15,000 and erect house No. 2 on ths Isnd adjacent to the city Jail and owned by the city. Mr. Zmmjn Is out of the city and Mr. Bridges attempted to fight the battle alone yeste.day, but lost. The committee failed to coincide with the view of Mr. Bridges, backed by plans, that a fire eng'ne house could be erected on the vacant city property, adjacent to the Jail and decided to buy a new site. Mr. Bridges then endeavored to have the bonds read: "For the purchase of sites and the erection and equipment of fire engine houses," In stead of Just for Bites and the houses. If the word "equipment" was Included any balance could be used in buying apparatus, otherwise it must go Into the sinking fund, where It cannot be used. But the council squelched htm again. The third proposition of the councilman was to Ivsue two set of bonds, one tr purchase of sites and erection of house and another for equipment, the two li-sues to equal a total of $150,000. This, too, met with defeat. The limit that can ba voted Is $150,000, but the council will ask for but $140,000. The fir chief told Ihe councllnien' that ths other $5,0(0 could be used to advantage and that It I needed, but the council refused to ask for the full amount.
