GIST OF COUNCIL MEET.
Former Councllmen John Franek and

demands upon Councllmen John Vana
and Tom Alton for their respective
places in the council. '
Omaha Robe and Tanning company
seeks switch track permit to connect
with Union Pacific tracks.
Councilman Rlha objects to the va
cating of the streets in the vicinity, of
the new horse -barn at the Union
stock yards.
John Hughes offers to submit to
arbitration his claim for $1,000 dam
ages alleged to have been sustained by
bis property on Thirty-sixth street as
the result of injury done his hedge
fence. P. C. Caldwell asks council to
put matter over for a week in order
that bis wife may make a claim also.
Caldwell says the grade before his
house' was changed seven times and
that he paid $94 for moving dirt paid
for by the city.
Councilman John Rlha asks that the
- National Construction company relay
' pavement on south side of Q street
Mrs. Dora Kasate gets $400 for dam
ages sustained by her property, from
grading done by city.
Crowded to the doors and overflowing
into the hall was the meeting of the city
council last night And some wore the
white rose of Lancaster and some the
red rose of Tork that is to say, the
warring clans of the "ins and "outs'
stared In sullen silence at one another
or exchanged barbed Jests on the question
as to who should hold the throne that is
to say, who is the rightful mayor of the
Magio City.
All day long the main, streets of the
city were filled with politicians and; men
whose offices have been In the hands of
others since the election. 'All kinds ' of
wild reports were spread about the po
litical complication that now agitates the
town. Sheriff McShane was said to be
on his way to pry the mayor, city clerk
and a few councllmen out of office. All
old employes were reported to be ready
to quit their work to go back to - the
political Jobs formerly held by them.
City Clerk Frank Good put by bis white
coat to call upon City Clerk Wheeler for
a restoration of his office, which he said
be wanted back. City Clerk Wheeler
said no, and the former clerk with char
acterlstic good nature went out to whisper
a funny story in the ear of a friend.
At night Councllmen John Franek and
George Hoffman appeared with written
demands for their respective places in
the city council. Clerk Wheeler amiably
read the notices to the individuals con
cerned. Mayor Hoctor waited expect
antly for a claim to be made on bis place,
but although former ' Mayor . Tratnor
mixed with the crowd near Twenty-fourth
and N streets immediately before the
meeting, his demand did not make its ap
pearance in the council room.
Unpleasantly mindful of the unsettled
condition of things, the council neverthe
less endeavored to ignore the presence of
its opponents and former associates, and
set itself to transact the regular order of
business. ' v-j
" " HnsrheV Claim Put Over.
P. C. Caldwell, Tjowever, interfered with
the program and in bis own peculiar way
upset the determination of the council to
settle the claim of John Hughes for dam
ages done by graders to his property in
Thirty-sixth street Judge Caldwell said
that his wife held a little property on the
same street as Hughes and that she also
would like to mat a claim for damage
done o a hedge. Hughes bad asked to be
reimbursed for damages caused by the
killing of a hedge fence on his property.
Caldwell alone and unilded walked into
the council and good natural y laughed
It into granting a stay of the Hughes
motion for one week.. The council agreed,
four to three.

TO PROVE DIABETES
CURABLE
On Monday, May 6th, 1912, the San
Francisco Examiner and Bulletin pub
lished an offer that is unique In history,
as follows:1
"To show that the preparation, con
taining opium which locks up secretions,
used so much in Diabetes (Codein) is
wrong and that Fulton's Diabetic Com
pound, which contains no opium or seda
tives but promotes secretions, is right,
we will say that if four physicians of
good standing in this city will send us a
Diabetic between fifty and seventy years
of age, strong enough to call at our of
fice, who shows high specific gravity
thirst and a large quantity of sugar,
with a letter signed by them showing
the above, we will retire the Codein'
and with this mild infuBion to help the
liver oxidize the sugars and starches
will attempt to return him in sixty days
with half of the sugar eliminated and
specific grav. y half way back to the
normal with thirst and symptoms
largely reduced and on the road to re
covery. If we fail we will publish the
fact: if we succeed the physicians to ac
knowledge it. We want a worthy, reli
able patient whom we can both trust
This offer is not in the nature of- a con
test, but to demonstrate that life can be
prolonged or recoveries had in many
cases of Diabetes that are now dying
under codein."

In their pockets. These are the two men
who, single handed and alone, last May
captured and delivered to the police Roy
Parson, a bandit who attempted to rob
their car at Forty-fourth street and
Boulevard.
The street railway company pays a
$500 reward each time that anyone cap
tures a man who attempts to hold up
and rob one of Its cars. At the time when
Parson held up the Boulerarl car, Emer
son and Adams grappled with him, took
away his gun and made him their pris
oner. Both Emerson and Adams are compara
tively new men with the company. They

did not get regular runs until a short
time prior to the capture of Parson.

FAREWELL TOCONSTITUTION
T. L. Jones Pictures the Millenium
of National Government.
SENATE AN UNNECESSARY BODY
Sociologist and Lecturer Tells the
Vnlveraity Club of Some Thing
the Cities Might Do.
Jenkln Lloyd Jones, sociologist and
lecturer, speaking at a banquet held In
his honor at the University club yester
day afternoon, outlined in brief what he
considered the ideal mlllenlum of national
government' He touched upon practically
every plank of the republican and demo
cratic platforms of the last twenty years
and went so tar as to recommend the
abolishment of the federal constitution.
In its stead, however, be would have one
that would contain the executive, legis
lative and Judiciary form, but which
would broaden the powers of congress.
"I believe that the United States senate
Is an unnecessary body. The house of
representatives, with a lesser number of
members, should have control of the
legislative branch of the government This
would Insure greater efficiency and ex
pediency in the passage of remedial and
necessary legislation."
Mr. Jones passed on to the provision of
city charters of different states for which,
he claimed, the cities of larger popula
tion should be Invested with state rights,
and be allowed to govern themselves by
their own legislatures, governors and
judiciaries.
Some national questions that Mr. Jones
adduced and for which be contended:
The adoption of a standard medium of
exchange to replace the precious metals,
doing away with the idea of "specie Is
wealth"- and not its exchange value.
Abolishment of the tariff and In Its
place free trade in all Imported commodi
ties. Suffrage for women.
Investure of courts with the power to
Interpret the laws and curtail their right
to legislate.
Covers were laid for fifty. E. U. Graff
was toastmaster. Because the time was
limited Hans P. Freece of New Tork,
who held a conference hour In the after
noon at the university, did not follow
Mr. Jones.
MORMON APOSTATE ATTACKS
CHURCH AT SUMMER SCHOOL
Hans P. Freece of New Tork, whose
father was one of the Mormon elders who
walked from Florence to Utah, whose
mother was a plural wife and he a lec
turer against the church of his youth,
gave a vivid recital of the way he claim
polygamlsta have worked their way Into
American politics, yesterday afternoon at
the University of Omaha at the Summer
school.
"Mormonlsm Is marching on," declared
Mr. Freece. "Politicians have to take
cognisance on account of the votes they
control and their hold on the business
world." He told of the power of Mormon
elders In keeping a plank against Mor
monlsm out of platforms of national con
ventions; of their power with the rail
roads because of their strategic geograph
ical position between east and west, . of
their keeping literature against polygamy
from being published. He declared that
the reason a constitutional amendment
making polygamy a crime could not be
passed was because there are so many
senators and representatives sent to
Washington, not to work actively tor
Mormonlsm but to prevent any measures
against It
Range Country Fine,
Says Mr. Rooney
Thousands of cattle are being shipped
from the dry section of some of the
southwestern states to the western and
northwestern .part of Nebraska, where
the range Is good, according to W. R.
Rooney of Chadron, who was at the
Henahaw yesterday afternoon. He says
the range was never better In the
world than this spring.
"We have more range than cattle," ad
ded Mr. Rooney, "and that 1 why we
are shipping in the cattle. The alfalfa
crop this summer gives great promise.
Ordinarily the rancher let the first crop
of the season go to seed and cut it for
the seed, after which they take the sub
sequent crops for hay. This summer,
however, the rains have been so abund
ant that the first crop grew so rank that
It was not thought beat to try to let It
go to seed. They have out thl for bay
and expect to harvest seed from th
second crop.'
