j Mayor Has Some New Name to Sub
YEAR i mit to the City Council for
Plumbing; Inspector.
Captain Chatles II. Downs. aed pioneer
and rival eonteftant with the late "Cnde
niily" Snnwdn for the honor of being the
first Oniahan, died at his home, 1312 South
Twenty-ninth strret. at 10:) Tuesday
night. He was a little less than a month
of BI years of a. The venerable pioneer
had . bran In falling health for the last
five years and his splrndid vitality alone
has buoyed him through many a critical
Illness. Death came from the general ail
ments of old afre. He had been confined to
his bed since last July.
Captain Downs hsd not been down town
for four yeara. when he attended the semi
centennial of the city administration, held
In 1907. At that time as the only surviving
member of the first city council he was
given a place of honor at the mayor's
right.
Cnptain Downs came to Omaha when
that now proud metropolis boasted of no
other Improvement than a well. His cot
tage at Lone Tree, the foot of Douglas
street, la said to have been the first dwell
ing In the city. Ha helped to build the
Omaha smelter and was the first president
of the company. It was his steadfast as
sertion that he waa the first white man to
have lived on the west banks of the Mis
souri river here, although the distinction
of being Omaha'a first settler has always
been accorded to "Chela Billy" Snowden.
Born In Connecticut.
Captain Downs mas born February 14,
181ft, In New Haven county, Connecticut.
He came west and located at Council Bluffs
In 154. In the western country he met the
young woman who was to become his wife.
Miss Cornelia C. Smith. They were mar
ried at the bride's home in Ludlow, Vt..
on the captain's birthday In 1859.
At the time of his arrival In Council
Bluffs tha townslte company had just
completed a little center wheel steamboat,
which they called the General Marlon and
which waa to be used aa a ferryboat Cap
tain Downs was asked to run It and for
eight years ha did a transfer business be
tween the two towns. Tha General Marion
was pushed up on the bank one spring
when the lea cams down and, slipping back
Into the river, sank. Tha company. In
which Captain Downa was financially In
terested, then bought tha Mary Chi at
St. Louis. In an attempt to bring it up
the river the second steamboat struck a
snag below Plattsmouth and also sank, so
that tha ferry business proved a losing
venture for Captain Downs.
Tha first survey of Omaha was begun
In tha summer of 1864, with A. D. Jones
In charge of the work. Captain Downs as
sisted. Early In tha '70a tha government
offered 60.000 acres of land to the company
that would build fifty miles of railroad
west of the Mtasourl river. Captain Downa
was a heavy loser in the company that
tried In 1S71 to meat tha government's of
fer In building tha Omaha A Southwestern
railroad and tha Omaha & Northwestern
raUroad. Tha grasshoppers were responsi
ble for the company's going to the wall.
In the failure Captain Downa lost 125,000, a
sum of money then considered large. He
waa also a big loser In aeveral western
mining projects.
Once Had Large Holdings.
Captain Downs severed hla connections
with the smelting company In 1875, having
been Ha preaident for the preceding five
years. At one time he owned alxty-tlva
corner lots In Omaha.
He la survived by Mrs. Downa and his
two daughters. Miss Anna Downs, wno
makea hat' home with her parents, and
Mrs. W. H. Chrtaman of Astec. N. M.
Arrangementa for the funeral have not
aa yet been aenniieiy aeuiea upon, al
though It Is likely that It will b held
Thursday afternoon from tha residence at
13:3 South Twenty-ninth atreet. Mrs.
Downs has requested that no flowers be
sent.
Before a successor to John C. Lynch,
whose resignation as city plumbing lo-
I srwtnr was accepted by the city council
Monday night. Is elected, there are liable
to be some hot times In the city council.
Mayor Dahlman sent In the name of
Jamra S. K raj Irk, a democrat, who lives
In the southern part of the city, but the
council refused to confirm the appointment
by a vote of eight to four. Democrats
Sheldon and Brucker voting with the re
publican members.
Mayor Dahlman does not believe It will
be possible to get Krajlck confirmed, so
he will likely abandon him and send In
another name next Tuesday night.
So far there are three applicants for
Lynch's vacated berth. Al Weltsel. Sain
Pollock and James Cameron. Weltzel, who
Is a member of the examining board, has
the support of the labor organizations,
while Cameron, who la a master plumber,
hss the backing of the Master Plumbers'
association. Pollack, who at present la the
assistant plumbing Inspector, has some
friends, but without the support of either
of the above named organizations, It Is
hardly probable that he can land the plum,
which paya 12.000 a year.
The fight will be between Weltzel and
Cameron. Weitsel will get the first chance
at the job, for Mayor Dahlman will send
his name before the council next Tuesday
night.
A combination it, the city council may be
effected, which will solve the situation.
About the first of March the office of
comptroller will be vacated, the present
Incumbent, C. O. Lobeck, having been
elected to congreas.
Though the mayor has nothing to do with
the appointment of Mr. Lobeck's successor,
the council members may get together and
frame a slate which will result In the
filling of both offices.

A general denial of the conditions under
which a railway mail clerk has to work
is described In a letter from a clerk to
n Omaha newspaper was made Wednes
day morning by Captain E. L. West, super
intendent of the Sixth division o tha rail
way mail aervice, who waa In Omaha on
business with the chief railway mail clerk
'n tha federal building.
"It la not true," said Mr. West, "that
a clerk Is diocharged from tha aervice be-

I'nlesa the city charter revision bill,
which empowers the city council to votu
$200,000 sewer bonds annually, passes, the
present appropriation of $100,000 will be
expended In the reconstruction of the Burt
atreet eewer and the construction of the
proposed branch of the south Omaha
se er.
A resolution for the construction of the
latter was presented to the city council
Tuteday night and referred to the commit
tee of the whole. To construct the south
west branch of the south Omaha sewtr
will cost In the neighborhood of $57,000, ac
cording to J. A. Bruce, acting city en
gineer. That the ordinance providing for
the construction of this sewer will pass
there Is little doubt. Work will be begun
as soon as conditions permit.
The new sewer will give that part of
south Omaha and Hanscom pat'k perfect
drainage. The proposed course Is. begin
ning at Twentieth street and Cnion Pacific
tracks, along the rlsht-of-way to Twenty
fourth street, where it crosses, thence to
Creighton avenue and then west to Twenty-
ninth street and to Hanscom park. The
sewer will end at Woolworth avenue and
Thirtieth atreet.
Work on tha construction of the Burt
street sewer from Twenty-sixth street to
Thirty-third and Cass will begin the latter
part of this month. This will cost $37,000,
which makes the expenditure total $4,000,
leaving but $C,000 of the appropriation for
other Improvements.
"We estimate that we need Sl.o00.0ii0 for
sewer work within the next five years,"
said Mr. Bruce. "It will take that much
money to get the sewer system in the
condition It should, be. If the charter revi
sion bill passes with the emergency clause
some of the money may be available this
year. But If not we will be able to begin
more extensive Improvements next year.
"The $100.(M) appropriation for Intersec
tion bonds Is ample at the present time,
but we certainly need more money for
sewer Improvements."

Forty per cent o the corn crop
goes to waste every year.
It can be savedi
One of the educational displays will be a lesson on the making the corn crop pay more" by
saving the waste. ;.
Prof. A. L. Haeeker, editor of the dairy department of the Twentieth Century rainier,
formerly at the head of the State College of Agriculture, will give illustrated lectures and conduct
an exhibit showing the advantages of eilo feeding.
Prof. Haeeker, recently said: "Hut GO per cent of the .total food value of the corn plant is ob
tained from the grain. The remaining 40 per cent is in the stalk and leaves, which are now al
lowed to go to waste and destruction as a total loss in the fields. IJy the use of the silo this very
valuable per cent can be turned into money. Further, the process is so inexpensive that a silo
equipment is paid for by its savings in one year.
"Another way to bIiow the economic value of the silo is by a comparison of its value as n
food with its cost of production. Ensilage is worth not less than $(5 a ton, probably much more. Jt
costs, with every possible item of expenditure included, $1.04 a ton."
"We feel safe in saying that this feature alone would be much more than worth the expense
and time you would put in making the trip to the Land Show, January 18 to 28, 1911. There aro;
many other features of fully as much importance. ,
