NEW COMMERCIAL CLUB HOMES Several Offers Are Made, bnt No I.o Aereplanrv. Several propositions' were put to . the Commercial club at the mewing of ' the executive committee Tuesday noon for new club rooms. The club has announced It wants new quarters and has a special com mittee appointed to find quartern. Directors of the City National bank have offered quarters In that building and several other sites are being considered By a unanimous vote the committee endorsed the plan of the trade extension committee for a spring trad excursion STATE STANDS BY OMAHA Press Opposes Railroads for Their Discriminating: Meat Bate. REALIZE IT HURTS ALL NEBRASKA Blow Apparently at Omaha Industry Falls Hardest on Farmers and Cattle Raisers Over the State. ') Omaha has begun two campaigns this spring which have struck a responsive chord all over the state. The first was the campaign for better seed corn selec tion and the figures sent out as the results of tests proved conclusively that some thing must be done and all the state soon fell In line with Omaha's plan. Now comes the rest of the state to back up Omaha on Us campaign against the railroads raising rates on dressed meats from South Omaha to Chicago. It did not take long to show the farmers and stock raisers that what was Omaha's Interest In these two Issues was In a larger sense their Interest, and now the state Is standing back of Omaha to try to force the railroads to refrain from dis criminating against Omaha and Ne braska. State papers all over Nebraska are not only printing long stories telling about the raise In rates, but the editors are ex pressing their sentiments In editorials. I Over 150 clippings came this week to the publicity department of the Commercial club, showing how the rest of the state was falling Into line nun Omaha. "Stand up for Omaha" was the caption of a strong editorial In the Fremont Herald. "Kearney Will Stand by Omaha," said the Kearney Hub In large type at the head of an article. Other papers with strong editorials are the Overton Herald, the York Times, the Nebraska City News, the Valentine Democrat, the Crawford Tribune and the Sturgess (S. p.) Standard. In the Albion News appeared this edi torial, which Is In line with many of the others: "The railroads don't seem to appreciate the decent treatment accorded them In Nebraska during the last two or three years. Their recent arbitrary Increase of Spring Medicine There U no other season when medi cine la so much needed as In the spring. The blood la Impure and Impoverished a condition Indicated by pimples, bolls and other eruptions . on the face and body, by deficient vitality, 1cm of ap petite, lack of strength. The beat spring medicine, acoorlng to the experience and testimony of thou sands annually, la Hood's Sarsaparilla It purifies and enriches the blood, cures eruption, builds up the system. Uet It today la usual .liquid, form or chocolated tablets known aa Sarsalaba. rates on dressed meats from Omaha to Chicago is a direct tax on every farmer and slock raiser. It Is a discriminating rate against Omaha and will compel ship ments of live stock on through to Chicago. In fact, that Is the reason of the increase, the long haul being thereby encouraged and made profitable. The South Omaha market Is valuable to every Nebraska farmer, and this attempt to Injure It will be resented by all Nebraska people." By discovering a Joker In Jie new rate, when the railroads forgot to publish the new tariff from Albright, the discrimina tion against the Omaha market Is put off for thirty days, by which time It Is hoped the railroads will see the error of their ways. ) Army of High School Boys to Take the Census Eighty-Five Youths Aid Commercial Club and Uncle Sam in This Work. Eighty-five high school boys, most of whom carry one or the other of the Omaha newspapers, will meet with E. F. Dennl son, Young Men's Christian association's boy's secretary. Wednesday afternoon at the Young Men's Christian association, for instructions in taking the census for Uio Commercial club. Friday afternoon thesa same boys will meet at the Young Men's Christian association rooms, after school, to hear talks from C. L. Saunders, director of the census for this district, and those in charge of the preliminary arrangements for the Commercial club. , April 7 and 8 Is the time set for the start on this preliminary census, when Omaha will be divided among the boys In the same districts as It is divided for the government census. These boys are to ak but one question at each house, "How many people sleep In this house?" Numerous experienced men will assist the boys In the downtown district and several young women, who have made application for positions will also be put to work. Mr. Saunders will In a few da)s receive from Washington 40.000 official blanks, which will be distributed from house to house by those who take the census for the Commercial club and will later be collected by the government enumerators. Beoae of the great Importance to every cltlsen of Omaha in having a correct cen sus this year the Commercial club Is asking the co-operation of all In getting at the exact figures aa nearly as possible. This plan has recently been adopted by the club, having been carried out In securing Indus trial figures on the year 1W9.

PROBLEM FOR THE COUNTY BOARD How to Complete the Building Within the Limit Set by the People Is the Terplex Ins; Qnrstlou. Members of the Board of County Com missioners are slowly bringing themselves to face a grave financial problem the building and equipping of the new court house within the sum of $1,000,000 for which bonds were authorized. The problem has become acute with the necessity of letting the contract for the plumbing and heating for the building. The outlays, or appropriations of money up to the present have been as follows: Caldwell & Drake $823 000 Grading 11. GO Architect's fee fO.noo Underpinning old building 16,000 Total 1300.000 The lowest bid for plumbing and heat Ing, that of Bernhardt Grunwald, comes to $71,000 without elevators, ventilating and vacuum systems. Commissioners differ as yet aa to what must be done with the Qunwald bid, Including everything but the boilers, and some figure that It can be done for a total of $87,000 and others for $91,000. At all events this raises the total to the neighborhood of $KW,000 within $10,000 of the whole bond Issue. This leaves no provision for steel cells for the new county Jail, which Is to occupy the top floor of the building, and these cells will cost anywhere from $00,000 to twice that sum. Besides this, there is the furnishing of offices throughout the building. Fred Brunlng, chairman of the board, has an Idea that $16.0X1 can be gained by charging the underpinning of the old build nig to the general fund, but said this Is to bj of doubtful legality. Other com missioners think a bond Issue for a con siderable further sum will be necessary, but are most unwilling to announce their belief. Definite action with respect to the plumbing and heating contract will proba bly be taken i'tlday afternoon at a meet ing of the committee of the whole.
