August Miller, councilman from the
Fifth' ward, proposes a s ale for tre
spring electlaa with, the offices evenly
divided between the republicans and dem
ocrats. Miller himself to be mayor and
dictator. ,
Thla was given out lesterday. Councll-
man miner s pun Is to waif until after
the primaries la the spring and then have
'his candidates file. .When the electron" la
held his slate will bar no opposition and
consequent lr will be elected.
There are several obstacles, however,
which might prevent'tbb little piece of
strategy from being a success. The
amendment to the South Omaba charter
which extends the office of the rreacnt
administration another year might not
prove to be tnralld when aone over care
ifully by the lawyers. Then again, aspir
ants might file for office) at the spring
primaries and run In opposition to Miller's
slate, or the two parties might fall to
join forces. ' If any of these things sht-d
occur Miller s well laid plana would come
tumbling to the ground Ilk a house built
of cards.
When Miller's slate has filed after the
primaries It will be necessary to circulate
petitions among the voters of the city
land get a certain portion to sign before
the candidates will be eligible to run for
(election. (

For Instance, a two-ounce bottle,

That's paying too much for ordinary
syrup; you can make a half gallon of

The syrup, extra bottles, libels, corks,

year.
A little thought and wisdom will save
any family several dollars and give

The Omaiia Taxlcab company has ar

age for It at Twenty-first and Famam.
on the north side of Farnam, adjoining
the E. M. F. garage on the west. The
builcinx will-have a frontage of forty

whether St wi'l be one story and basement
or two stories without basement. It a-ill

No contract for Interior decoration of
the county building will be awarded M. L.
End res of Omaha and the William U.
Andrews Decorative company of Clinton,
la, oa their present proposala by the
Board of County Commissioners unless
It Is done against the advice of John
Latenser, architect of the building.
This much was made clear to the board
by Mr. Latenser Saturday afternoon after
the board had spent five hours hearing
the several bidders tor the Interior deco
ration contract tell w hat work they would
do If the contract was awarded them.
Mr. Latenser did not recommend ac
ceptance of the proposala of any of the
bidders, but his disapproval of the pres
ent Endres-Andrews proposals were made
definite and emphatic.
Mora thorough consideration of all the
bids and of the entire Interior decoration
situation was held to be advisable by the
board and the entire matter waa deferred
until next Friday morning at M o'clock.
The efforts to have the contract let aad
the matter entirely disposed of la quick
Urns resulted In failure.
Tee Stick tar Rejection.
Commissioners John C. Lynch and Peter
E. Elsasser adhered to their former con
tention that the board abould reject all
bids andv readvertise. Commissioners
Best, O'Connor and Harte opposed such
action, but asserted they had no desire
to have hasty disposltloa of the matter
made. '
The board met at 1:90 to hear the bid
ders and had Mr. Latenser present to
give advice. G. W. Later, a member of
the Orchard Wllbeira Carpet company
and manager of the company's deco
rating department, appeared to plead for
an opportunity to bid for the contract.
saying his company had not had time to
prepare sketches and gel la a bid when
the others came in.
Conrad Bchmltt of the Conrad Bchmltt
company of Milwaukee and Edward J.
Holslag of Holslag di Co. of Chicago ex
hibited sketches which afforded general
Ideas of the character of the work they
propose to do. Holslag showed photo
graphs of mural paintings done by him
In the Congreslonal library In Washing
ton, D. C. and In public buildings and
hotels in New York City, Kansas City
and other cities, lis produced documents
showing that he waa foreman of all the
mural decorating In the Congressional li
brary and himself made many of the
paintings. He said If given the work he
himself will make at least four of the
ten murals and will have the others mads
by Edward Simmons, John Alexander or
soma other mural painter of national
reputation. He will select his assistant,
hs ssld, from the list of twenty-five art
ists of national reputation who did the
work In the Congressional library. Bchmltt
proposed to hare his mural painting done
by F. W, Heine of Milwaukee, who. he
said, is a painter of national reputation.
He submitted a sketch of a proposed
mural by Heine to give an Idea of the
character of his work. Heine Is the man
who painted "The Crucifixion" of World'a
Columbian exposition fame, and who will
paint a huge panorama for the Panama
Pacific exposition In Man Francisco,
' her Kkasehva afeanltted.
Fuchs, Bon Blind, submitted sketches
to give an idea of the work they will do.
They said It will be dons by B. Theodora
Behr of Chicago, who did most of ths
mural decoration for the Brandeis
theater,
William O. Andrews of ths William
O. Andrews company of Clinton, which
will do ths murals for M. L. Endres If
the contract liawarded him, submitted
sketches and said his company will have
Simmons paint the four principal murals;
others to be done by competent men.
Sachs k. Lapldas of South Omaha, had
no sketches, but said they will produce
them later If the board will see them.
During the hearing Commissioner Best
asked each of the bidders It they had
had plenty of time In which to prepare
their sketches. The majority were agreed
that the time waa short and that better
sketches could have been prepared had
there been more time.
After all had been heard, Mr. latenser
was asked for his opinion regarding the
exhibitions snd the proposals. He said
it was largely a question of getting the
right man and he did not wish to ad
vise the board as to what action It should
take. His remarks In the main were of
a general character, pointing out the dif
ference between art and painting. It was
clear, however, that he was unfavorably
impressed with the End res-Andrews pro
posal snd thst In his opinion -the bids
of Holslag and Bchmltt were the most
worthy of further consideration.
Lynch and Elsasser declared for a re
jection of all bids and a readvertisemeat
on the theory that the county would profit
thereby. They believed there will be
more bidders and possibly better ones;
pcselbly present bidders wilt bid better,
and sll who wish to bid will have op
Commissioner Best said the courts have
ruled that the board does not hsve to be
bound by the bids at all; that It may
Ignore them and let the contract to
vhomsoever It pleases, regardless of
whether or not he has bid.
That being the case, Mr. Lynch wanted
to know upon what ground an objection
to rejecting the blda could be based, as.
If the bids counted for nothing, the re
jection would not change the situation.
Best still contended they should not bs
rejected Just yet. O'Connor ended the
meeting by moving that action be de
ferred until Friday to give the board time
to study over the situation. O'Connor
and Harte favored tha motion. Harte a
little reluctantly, because he ssld he saw
no reason ID waiting so long; Lyncn snd
Wssaser voted no. Best, chairman of the
meeting, voted with O'Connor and Harte.
