BIG PRICE FOR THE GEADEJQ
W. J. Oskes, Representatlv of Ket
tie Hirer Cooturi Call at
South Omaha Get Money
a Deposit.
That South Omaha still feels tha hand
of the Kettle River oomnanv was evi
denced by the reoent rlslt of W. t. Oakes,
an engineer of the General Contracting
company, who came to demand that tha
city put on deposit the 10 per cent re
serve tuna neia as security for the main
tainance of tha work don by tb com
pany.
It Is understood that tha reserve should
have ieeo placed on deposit aver a year
ago,' but owing to a depletion of the Im
provement fund of paving district 87,
there was need of 11 .SOO to cover the in
creased cost of tha navinc.
When tha emissary of tha General rvn.
trading company called, on the council
about two weeks nro he n aivan aa.
suranoes that the money would be placed
on deposit without delay. Immediately
after receiving the assurances nvM
took hla departure. It now remains for
tha city to gather the money either by a
new sale of vond or some other means
flame Old Storr.
Tha story of tha General Contracting
company in south Omaha ia In accord
with Its movements at other points.
The oomnany anneared on the IoasI
horizon about a year ago for tha purpose
of blddlnsr on tha Imnrovamant of that
portion of Hoctor boulevard running from
toe city limits in tha north to the west
line of - Twenty -first street.. .. ,
At the time the nroncrty In that section
was owned or controlled by Thomas
Hoctor. a real estate dealer of tha ltv
A petition to pave was presented la the
council ana tn material to be used was
designated as creosote block. The price
was In accord with the agreement el.
ready pubUahed-L60. The total coat of
the work was estimated ty the city en
gineer at 352,000.
The council at that time, it Is under
stood, opposed granting tha contract to
the General Contrasting company. Bids
were made on sarco and brick block at
II. W and $2 per yard, respectively. The
council was. however, comnellail fa iMrH
the contract to the General Contracting
company, -because at tne law that tnakea
a demand of the majority of the prop
erty owners mandatory In tha deslrnatlnn
of material. The majority in this case
was Thomas Hoctor, who apeclfied creo
sote block.
Weeds Estra Grading.
After letting the contract, however. It
developed that the subcontractor to
whom tba "grading was let found extra
grading to bo dona amountina to a nno
yards. Tha cost of Aha sradln work
60 cents par yard aa against SO cent or Si
cents, tba ordinary cost. It was further
found that tha extra coat of tha wark
was due to tha fact that there was not
sufficient dirt to naks tha respective fills
on the street. The dirt had to be pur
chased from abutting DroDerty owum
and the result amounted to aa Increase
in the total oast of the work of Sl.0SS.st
more than the Original estimate of the
city andnear. When tha 41raa at mnVIn
tha 10 per cent deposit came the city
found that Its original bond Issue of

residue owed ty tne ueneral Construction
company that Engineer Oakes recently
called. How the council will pravlda for
tba extra expenditure remain to be seen.

Graff Talks to the
Students of Night
School at Kellom
Nearly 400 students, teachers and
friends of the Kellom night school heard
Superintendent E. V. draff of the Omaha
publlo schools In a Thanksgiving ad
dress at the school last night. The ad
drees was preceded by mimical and
declamatory exercises by the students
and the meeting closed with the slnginf
lu unison of "America."
Superintendent Graff spoke of the ad
vantage offered by America to the poo-
plea of the foreign lands of the "old
country," specially dwelling upon th
personal freedom enjoyed by every Amer
ican oltlsen.
"While this Is a young nation, atlll far
from perfect." aaid he, "It ha to offer
certain advantages that nowhere else are
found. There may be flews In our politi
cal And Industrial systems, doubtless
there are; but nevertheless wo are
founded upon certain principles of Justice
and equity which guarantee larger op
portunities for growth and advancement
than older nations. We are free from
militarism; we are free from the oppres
sion of the caste system. In some of the
older nations a man who Is a grocer's
never can be anything but a groeer'e son,
but hare ho haa the opportunity if he
has tho will, to become anything he
chooses to become. For this we should
be thankful."
Mr. Oraff complimented tho school on
Its excellent program, praised th prin
cipal and teachers for their work with
and for the students, and urged even In
creased interest In the school. He was
given huge boquets of chrysanthemums
