Reciprocity, snouia it become effective by Its passage In congress, would do tha United States worlds of good." According to the Chicago man. tha rail way rata decisions are not favoring the railroads any mora than they are the people. There la no reason why tha people should become alarmed as It doea not af fect them 'In tho least. "Tfcls feeling of unrest." said ho. "Is caused by one man telling another that ha has been made poor by tha high tariffs. This feeling gets among tha poopla and then Into the papers and spreads over tha country like aa epidemic "The reason tho tariffs are so high In this country la because the help la of a tar grade and labor coata mora than It doea m Europe. If tha price of labor In this country was as low as It Is to Europe, the railroad could afford a lighter tariff. The people of this country arc paid better for their work ard can' afford to pay a higher price for goods than In other countries. Thar Is no causa for uneaal nesa and unrest and tha country will still go on aa It has In tha past. Thla business of getting something for nothing should a certain schedule go through is all guff.

Chief Brlrr proposed solution to the police question received a eetbark Thurs day morntng when Mayor Tralnor refused to count nanre the scheme on the ground thst to p the police serving during the months of June snd July out of the po1,c appropriation of the next fieral year would be a transfer of funds not contemplated In the law and further because to apply the funds of the next year to the neds of the current term would create an overlap and cripple the service for the next year. The plan offered by Chief Brlnrs wss to have eighteen men volunteer their serv- Ires a pstrolmen during the months of June and July, with the understanding that they would be remunerated by the city from the police fund of the fiscal year beginning August 1. The plan waa drawn up originally with the concurrence of City Attorney II. C. Murphy, but the addition of a 'new clause to the original draft of the Brigrs' plsn csused the city attorney to retract his approbation. Mayor Has Plan of Own. As the matter now stands the mayor has a new plan of his own which pro poses to carry through a fire and police force each consisting of fifteen men with an application of 13,000 taken from the scavenger collections snd tsxes collected in excess of DO per cent. The mayor has consulted the office of the city treasurer and has received assurances that his plan can be financed by the scavenger collec tion and excess taxes. The assurances of the city treasurer, however, extend only so fsr as the provision of the actual money is concerned. When Informed of the plan proposed by the mayor. City Attorney Murphy bluntly said that not "a dollar from any other fund should be appropri ated to the use of the police board" in financing the police system during the months of June and July. The city attor ney ' did not mince word In his charac terlxatlon of the mayor's scheme. II said that he considered the proposition as an attempt to force the people Into counte nancing the debauching of the police ap propriations on the expectation of having a deficit supplied by the transfer of other funds to that of the fire and police fund. Mr. Murphy concluded his remark by say ing that the mayor could not legally carry his scheme Into effect Mayer Tralaor'a Explanation. The mayor. In explaining his plan, said that, he could carry them through the pres ent month without any more money. For th month of June he would need toco for the fire department and 11,200 for the po lice department. A similar amount would be needed by the police department for th month of August, making a total of $3,000 for th two months. According to documents In the treasurer's office It ap pears that the scavenger collections have in other years been applied to various uses and supporters of th mayor are anxious to know wherein lie tho validity of th city attorney's objections to the plan. The whole matter la a tangled skein In which th mayor, th city attorney, th treasurer's office and th city council are Involved, together with th chief of police. Th politicians are divided, tha polio want to get back to work and tha merchants are crying for some relief that will afford them police protection. Itallremd Present Bill. South Omaha had a teason In railroad financiering when th Union Pacific rail road sent la a bill for a temporary viaduct built over th new Mud creek sewer that crosses the company's right-of-way. Th bill Is for th sum of $2,484.11.. When It wss first presented to th city, the officials filed th bill and waited. Later a second account was presented and now the city la In a position where It will have to pay for Improvements made necessary by th railroad. As I understand it, sal1 ons man, th city has th right to build a ewer at any place It become necessary. It so happened that th sewer had To pass under the Union Pacific track aa-.'l I can not see why th city must pay for V-.e via duct built by th railroad. Th tnuAua tlK b threshed out between th city and the railroad. In th meantime th bill remains unpaid. U. C. Petersen Injared. H. C Peterson, residing at Thirty-third and T streets, whll engaged In the erec tion of th new sheep barn at th tnlon Stock yards Thursday forenoon, fell from th building, a M stance of twenty-four feet, and was seriously Injured.
