Th sessioft of the Houth Omaha city
council will be Important tonight In that
the passage ,of the ordinance raining the
rate of Interest on Ihe bonds tor paving
la to be passed. 'it has, beon a number
of years since municipal 'botula of the city
could not be sold at par ' when they bore
even less than 6 iir cent. The city charter
' limits the rate of Interest to 6 per cent. It
Is hoped that the present Issue of bonds
may be floated without reaching that
limit.
It is evident that the people of South
Omaha are In a mood to pave the ctty
streets far more extensively than ever
before. Within two years all the principal
residence street will be payed. The opin
ion commonly expressed is that South
Omaha is destined to be annexed within a
Short time and the residents are hastening
to get their paving done before such a
time. The political leaders have Inculcated
the belief that It would be harder to se
cure paving after, the cltftts are annexed
notwithstanding the fact that the Omaha
council Is bound to act whenever the resi
dents of any street present their petition
for paving.
The paving this year- would easily have
exceeded $500,000 had the bonds been readily
told. When it was learned that there was
to be. delay, numerous petitions tot. paving
were dropped by the residents interested,
awaiting a more favorable opportunity. ,
Water Works Project.
Theodore Jacobaon of Boston, represent'
Ing Boston capitalists, .was in South Omaha
Saturday and ihuy be In the city several
days, seeking to interest the South Omaha
people, and especially the corporations, in
a waterworks project for South Omaha.
He proposes to establish a standplpe res
ervoir at orty-aecond and W streets, or
in that vicinity, and pump water from the
I'latte river, a distance of about fifteen
miles. Whether the project is attempted
or not will depend on whether the corpora
tions will agree to contract for water.
'mere is aiso some suggestion of a re
newal of the power site proposition, which
was tirreshed over so vigorously two years
ago.

The city attorney has expressed disap
proval of the proposition to exhibit plo

South Omaha. He has examined the city
ordinances and maintain that the ordi

say pictures which might in the JutVgmeni
of the constituted authority prove detri

of the community. On these grounds the
attorney claims he has the rlgnt to stop

ROAST FOR GREAT WESTERN
Assistant City Attorney Dunn Flays
Reorganized Road.
ORATORY OVER LATE VIADUCT
llerdman, for Hallroad, Pleads lor
Delay, Bat City Council De
rides to Pass the Pend-
Ibk Ordinance.
After a speech by Assistant City At
torney I. J. Dunn, In which he denounced
the Chicago, Great Western railroad for
having been "Morgajihelnied, frensled,
flnunced, and looted," for backing up the
Omaha Grain Terminals company in an
alleged attempt to hold off the city from
forcing It to build a viaduct on Bancroft
and Twenty-sixth streets, the city council
Monday afternoon, sitting as a committee
of the whole, decided to pass the ordinance
which William Herdman, attorney for the
company, was trying to postpone.
The ordinance in question is an order con
demning the rights of the Omaha Grain
Terminals company to a strip of land in
Arbor place which was once intended for
a street and was purchased by the city at
a cost of $1,600 for that purpose. Subse
quently it was given over to the Terminals
company for trackage an dlt is this right
that must be condemned.
According to Mr. Dunn's speech the rail
road started to build this same viaduct
about seven years ago and lias delayed and
dallied about it since in an effort to avoid
it altogether. The ctty has to fight a suit
of $18,000 for damages which the Union
Faclflo claims it suffered In building a
subway under It tracks at this point rend
ered useless afterwards by the-tracks of
the Terminals company.
' Ordinance on Its War.
The ordinance condemning this right In
preparation for the construction or the
viaduct was Introduced at the council meet
ing last Tuesday night. It was made neces
sary by the decision of the federal court
which denied the city the right to taae me
property without condemnation.
"The attorneys for the railroad can rest
assured they will get no money from this
action," declared Mr. Dunn. "In this mat
ter we can keep them in the state oourls
and there we can meet them. It requires a
great deal of Sail for the railroads to
promise anything when they have broken so
many promises.
Mr. Herdman, attorney for the Terml
nr.ls company, had asked for a week's time
for the company to prepare a plan or an
alternative for the viaduct, but by the
recommendation of the ordinance for pas
sage his request was overruled.
The committee of the whole also received
the resignation of C A. Hiss, assistant
boiler inspector, and authorised the ex
penditure of $9,000 for the- repairing of the
city hall elevator system and the addition
of a new electric pump for emergencies.
The levy proposed at the last council meet
ing of $1,000,000 for the general fund and
$200,000 for the sinking fund will be ap
proved. METCALFE IS WITH BRYAN
(Continued from First Page.)
support of the people I was trying to se
cure. It laid great emphasis on my will
ing ness to omit a county option plank from
the state platform, but It touched lightly
the suggestion that the governor be pledged
to approve a county option bill; and no
where has the World-Herald raised its
voice for the Columbus plan.
That plan was In. the nature of a com
promise botween honest-minded men with
out Involving sacrifice of principle on the
part of either side. '
Leaders Held Aloof.
While every leaitr to whom I spoke was
anxious that Mr. Bryan should endorse the
plan proposed at Columbus, not one of them
was willing to say that he would lve that
plan his support. They were all very anx
ious for Mr. Bryan to make, concessions,
but none of them were willing to yield one
inch themselves. '
When Mr. "Bry?n returned from Scot
land recently I again urged him to consider
the proposed method. He asked me If this
plan was acceptable to other leaders. I was
compelled to confess that so far as my
harmony efforts were concerned I did not
know one among the conspicuous leaders
upon whom I could dperid for support. I
went to the trouble making a brief In
support of my position and sent It to sev
eral democratlo leaders whom I thought
might be open to conviction. I told them
frankly that I wanted their endorsement,
so that I might present It to Mr. Bryan. I
did not receive a favorable reply. Bom
wanted complete silence in the platform,
others wanter a declaration against so-
called sumptuary laws, while others wanted
a olear-cut declaration - against county, op
tion.
'I was elected as a delegate to tha county
convention and was Instructed to vote and
work for a county option plank. A demo
cratlo willingness to abide by the Instruc
tions pf the men woh elected me as a dele
gate and not, as you say, 'personal con
cession to Mr. Bryan,' was the first motive
that prompted me to vote and speak In
the Lancaster oenveatton In favor ot Mr,
Bryan'a plan. But there was another
motive. I am In favor of oounly option
and I hope to see a legislature elected
which will write It upon the statute books.
In the Lancaster convention I saw the men
who weer la favor of county option lining
up under Bryan; I saw the men who were
opposed to county option lining up against
him. Where was my place, Mr. Editor? Was
It with tha men who were fighting the re-form
I believed In or with the men who
believed as I did upon county option, even
though 1 had not wholly agreed with their
plan of handling It so far as the demoorailo
state platform was concerned?
"1 think 1 owe no epoiua'es to anyone
tor the part I took in that convention.
"If 1 had my way today, Mr. Kditor,
would in framing the democratic slate plat
form follow tiie plan outlined in my Co
lumbus adresa. But Mr. Bryan baa elected
to make his fight for county option along
In other lines and 1 am with him in tha
fight, first because 1 am for county op
tlon and also because I am fur Bryan
"You have no more right to charge me
with- sacrificing my convictions when
take my stand with those who, upon th
question Itself, believe as I do than your
critics have to charge the World-Herald
with representing the liquor interests be
cause Its views upon county option, as upo
the 8 o'clock closing law, harmonise with
th Views of the representatives of these
interests.
"Whatever I have done, publicly or prt
vately, has been with the hope that har
mony might be preserved among democrat
who honestly differ upon this question,
Whatever my views as to method may hav
been, or may be, I am with Bryau In this
fight, not merely as a personal conces
sion, but rather because tna euds be saeka
scored with my own well considered con
victions. KICHAKlJ L. MiSTCALF."

ROADS KICK ON ASSESSMENTS
State Executive Council Listens to
Their Protests.
SAY NET EARNINGS CUT DOWN
Declare Real Estate Generally la
Taxed a Much Higher Valaa
tlon In Proportion to Rail
road Property.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DE3 MOINES. Ia., July lL- Special Tele
gram.) The state executive council today
heard the representatives ef the railroads
with regard to matters of assessment nnd
taxation. Tha representatives of about half
the railroads appeared, all of them pleading
for lower assessments. They were especially
Insistent that because real estate has be
come so much more valuable than indicated
by tha assessment the railroad assessment
should be reduced. They also showed that
net earning had been reduced the lat year
on the various roads In Iowa, but insisted
this was only a temporary matter and due
largely to the Increased .ost of Improve
ments. Franchise Mtlsratloa.
The Des Moines clt ycouncll today di
rected the olty solicitor to proceed at once
to bring to a conclusion the litigation with
the city street car line with regard to
franchise matters and compell the company,
if possible, to reopen the franchise question.
The council went on record as denouncing
the company fo rlts neglect and permit
ting the street car system to' deteriorate
until It la a disgrace to the city.
FAIR CROPS IN SOUTH DAKOTA
Hay Will Be Short, Oata and Barley
Only About One-Half the
Averse Yield.
ABERDEEN, 8. D., July 11. (Special)
Reports from men who made a carefud
study of crop conditions lit this section ot
South Dakota Indicate that the hay crop
will be very short, although In this respect
South Dakota Is better off than either
North Dakota or Minnesota. The price
of hay has gone up $3 a ton in the last
fortnight, from $10 to $13.
Oats and barley are now being cut, and
are running about half an average yield.
Fear was expressed earlier that the straw
would be so short a header would have
to be used In harvesting those crops, but
In nearly every field It has been found
perfectly feasible to use a binder, the
straw being nearly up to the normal
height. A half crop of wheat Is looked
for, with macaroni, or durum wheat a
little below a half crop because the heads
are not filling out so well as the common
variety. Corn continues to look well, al
though more copious showers are needed
soon for this crop.

Ten continues to be the number of small
patients who are being wooed back to
health at the Babies Open Air Camp, but
not the same ten babies. Sunday one of
the little people reached the goal of good
health and was dismissed; and Immediately
the place was taken by one who needed,
very much, the camp's healing ministra
tion. These babies vary In age from 2 years to
7 weeks; that is, the oldest at the camp
Is 1 'years old and the youngest 7 weeks.
The average age is or 7 months, the age
when babies are most liable to find summer
productive of physical Ills.
The nurses' tent and the receiving tent,
where the babies are taken upon their ar
rival to make sure that no contagion
reaches the other patients, are nearlng com
pletion. With their completion more chairs
will be needed. A kitchen table Is an ar
ticle whose donation would be much appre
ciated. Miss Edith Tobltt, city librarian, has re
turned from Mackinac Island, where she

Mrs. Dora B. Monteflore, who Is now
visiting the United States, tells a remark
able fact about Helslngfors, the capital of
Finland. The city contains many book
stores, where translation of all the world's
best literature are found; but not a single
Jewelry store where diamonds can be
bought. Probably this cannot be said of
the capital of any other civilised land. It
Is striking testimony to the plain living
and high thinking that prevail In Finland.
