-Beatrice is After
'an:Mi PExtenswn
"Beatrice and Virginia are going to
frvi'k fcrthe extension 'of the Missouri
Pacific road for all their worth," inti
mated J. C. Everett of Virginia, who is
stopping at the Merchants. , "Consider
ahle talk has been going' the rounds for
several; weeks and the Commercial club
of Beatrice is figuring out the best in
ducements, it can give. Outside of the
excursion of business men to Kansas
City la an effort of having the road ex
tended dollars' and cents will be forth
coming to bring the road to Beatrice.
'!"As far as Beatrice needing the ex
tension is concerned, there Is no other
town in the state that Is so much in need
of a road: It Is but ten miles and Vir
ginia rfs-'a mere hamlet. The road, I
waer, is. a loser, but it would make good
profits if It comes on to Beatrice. It Is
also up to. the towns to offer a proper
Inducement in the way of concessions, I
suppose." :
FINE REMITTANCE STAETS 20W
Board of Edneation Jaaists that
Five Hare Been Suspended and
it ' Haa Been Deprived of
Fonda Belonging to It.
What looks Ilka the beginning of a big
fight between tfie city council. and the
Board of Kdueation was the adoption Of
a resolution by the commissioners, sub
mitted by Dan Butler, instructing the
city comptroller to examine 'the records
of the board relative to the moneys ex
pended In the . erection of schools during
the last three years, v ' V '
The action, of the council is simply a
"come-back" on the Board of Education,
which on Monday- night passed resolu
tions asking that the action of the mayor
In remitting certain tinea of persons
convicted In police court be Investigated,
The .board held that the action of the
mayor was uncalled, for and. that, many .
of the persons whose fines were remitted
were .well able to pay the fines, and that
If' the tines had not been remitted the
money would' have gone into the. school
board1 fund,
Dan Butler made no explanation of his
resolution when it was .submitted, but it
evidently had been previously discussed
by the members of the council, as it was
passed unanimously without any question.
Following la the resolution:.
Resolved, That the city comptroller be
directed to examine into the records of
the Board of education for the purpose
of furnishing this council with the names
of - all ; contracts with said board
for .the erection of school buildings, or
for warming, ventilating, furnishing or
repairing same; also to furnish list of
school buildings erected during the last
three years, the amount of each con
tract and the name of each contractor,
and to make -this report not later than
August 1.
The Smoke Nuisance. '
In addition ttf the ab'ove resolution, the
council adopted another relative to the
great amount of smoke being emitted
from chimneys of factories, office build
ings and plants. The resolution, which
.was, submitted by Dan Butler, holds that
Omaha cannot bo a city beautiful as long
as the smoke nuisance is allowed. .. The
building .Inspector was Instructed to visit
the Various factories and buildings In
Omaha and get the names of persons
who own them and demand their appear
ance before the city council, to explain
why great volumes of , 'smoke is per
mitted to Issue from smoke stac'x on
their buildings.
If satisfactory answers are not forth
coming the old smoke ordinance will be
repealed and a new , one drawn up and
passed which will be far more stringent
than, ts predecessor,- Mr. Butler says he
has received ' complaints from a "large
number of persons In 1 ho business, dis
trict who, claim they; cannot open their
office windows on account of the exces
sive amount of. smoke.,.;':.
The council agreed to place' an arc lamp
in .RIvervlew ;park and one; at Thirty
seventh and Howard streets,. A special
meeting of the council will be ,hofd Tues
day night, when the property owners on
Twenty-fourth street, between Fort street
and Florence boulevard, will he ; heard
relative to the kind of .paving they wish
placed -in .front of heir property. Th
members of thd council took a" recess

Kansas in Need of
. Many .Harvest Hands
The wheat .harvest is on. . In Kansas and
reports' coming to the' Rock Island, Mis
souri Pacific and Burlington roads from
the great grain belt of that state are to
the effect that while the crop is hot a
bumper, it is far ahead of last year and
somewhat better than an average.
With the beginning of the wheat, har
vest, the cry for men has been wafted
up from Kansas. Local officials of the
Rock Island have advices ,. from " their
Kansas officials that in the country
tributary to the company lines 5,000 men
are needed, beginning next - week. AH
local labor agencies have been ' notified
of the demand for help and there is a
scurrying about to find men for the har
vest fields. The Kansas wages range
from 13.50 to $3.50 per day and board.
