AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Boo iter Club Takes lune with the
Annexationists.
GOOD LAUDS MAGIC CITY
Cltr Clerk Says it s Beat City of
Its also la fatted State Cald
well riado Fly In Olat
aaeat. Taking Issue with the annexationists,
the Booster club went squarely on record
lsst night as being irrevocably opposed
to the consolidation of Omaha and South
Omaha.
A set of resolutions Impugning the mo
tives of the movers of the annexation
project and branding them as defeated
political aspirants, was read by John
Kennedy, secretary of the club.
Frank Oood, clerk of the city, then
took the floor and lauded South Omaha
as being the best city of Its slse In the
United States. Mr. Oood said his objec
tion to a merger of tha two cities was
bated on his views as a clttsen and a
taxpayer rather than an office holder.
He said ha defied sny of the opposition
to show ons item wherein South Omaha
would be benefited by the consolidation
of the two cities. He declared South
Omaha to be the cleanest city In Ne
braska, and offered to debate the point
at any time and. with anyone who dis
puted the statement. Mr. Oood concluded
his speech with a strong plea that the
Boosters take strong and concerted meas
ures to repress the propaganda of the
annexationists.
Judge P. C. Caldwell waa called to the
floor immediately at the conolusion of
Mr. Good's speech and Impressed upon
the club that Mr. Oood had shown only
one side of the picture. He told the
Boosters that annexation would depend
more or less upon the stand taken by
the laboring men and reminded the city
clerk that the semi-monthly psy day had
not yet gone Into effect. He said if the
officials expected to stamp out the dis
content so prevalent at present they must
see to It that the causes of discontent
are removed Answering the charge of
Caldwell that the delay was due to the
clerk's office, Good explained that any
time the council would pass the proper
ordinances he would gladly pay the money
even twice a week or once a day.
The chairman at this juncture poured
oil on the troubled waters and brought
up another subject. For the Wild West
show, to be held on the afternoon of
October 4, It was arranged that a grand
stand should be erected In order to pro
tect sightseers from any dancer. The
matter was put in ths hands of City Clerk
Good for arrangement. The club will
meet next Tuesday night to conclude ar
rangements for the show. Various com
mittees will visit the packers in order to
win their consent to a half holiday on the
afternoon of the show.
To Fight Annexation.
Several of the city officials; including
the mayor, city treasurer, deputy city
clerk, city attorney and a few others
met In the German nail yesterday after
noon.eover Fred Stroeh's . saloon on
Twenty-fourth street, for the purpose ot
organizing against annexation. The ses
sion was secret, but It was given out
that the city attorney had Indicated a
way In which the proposed merger might
be defeated through tha courts. None of
those at ths meeting would commit them
selves and the matter was taken under
advisement. .
f noalry Over Bonds.
City - Clerk Frank Good is very much
perturbed over the failure ot Spitxer aV
Co. to acknowledge ths receipt of certain
bond histories sent for- approval last
month. Mr. Good has written the com
pany asking for Information In regard to
their alienee. There sr sixteen bond his
torles In question, amounting to flS.OOO.
"We have been receiving inquiries from
some of ths cltlxens," said Mr. Good,
"and I want It understood that this office
Is in no way to blame for tha delay. The
histories were gotten out in record time
and tha delay Is at the office of the bond
company. I expect a reply to my query
as to the delsy any day."
