While there Is nothing apparent to In
dicate that Omaha Is up In the air, It's
there Just tho snme. To the average cit
Izen the clevntlon of the city does not
appear to be great, but could It and tho
land upon which tho buildings arc con
structed bo moved down to tha Oulf of
Mexico, or even to New Orlesns, and be
placed there, It would be something of u
mountain. In fuel, oven the high school
hill would tower up Into tho air almost
l,2i) feet, or, to bo exact, 1,1(3.8 feet, and
that would bo sorno mountain, whllo the
water level In the Walnut Hill reservoir
would be 3VJ feet higher, or 1,472.8 feot.
All tho elevation In Omaha are figured
from whut Is officially known as "City
Datum," and to tho plsbelan this moans
no more than a word from a Greek lox-
Icon. To the engineer the phrase means
everything, for "City Datum" Is the
point ho seeks when he wants to ascer
tain tho height of any particular point.
Hence It is necessary for tho purposo of
this ortlcfo to go Into detail on the ex
pression. "City Datum" takes Into consideration
tho wuters of the Oulf of Mexico, but has
nothing to do with the Atlantic or the
I'uclflc oceans, or tholr water levels.
Many years ngo when surveys of the
Mississippi and tho Missouri rivers were
made at Omaha a benoh mark was placed
on ono of the piers of the Union Paclflo
bridge. This was marked xero and wos
there and then designated and recorded
In tho office of the city engineer ns
City Datum." This marking Is made ut

tho official mark and the mark from
which all measurements for elevations are

However, there are other markings of
elevation scattered about the city and
they have the approval of Uncle tam,
for they were made by his engineers. Tho
ono most frequently roferred to Is on
tho old potof(lce building at Fifteenth

located, but according to the best au
thorities It la some distance up the stream
from New Orlans.

the thirty-second convention, of the
Farmers National congress, which met
here today, discussed this morning a pro
posal tor the merger of all agricultural
associations under the name of the
United States Country Life association.
The advantages of a merger were urged
by Assistant Secretary Hays of the De
partment of Agriculture and he suggested
the American Grange, the Farmers' Na
tional congress, the Southern Cotton
Growers' aiioclntlon and the Farmers'
union for membership. What action would
be taken today was not Indicated by a
preliminary discussion last night.
More than 300 delegates to the congress
representing practically all of the south

middle west and west were registered
early this mornln?

time It is 1.2S4..3 feet above the measuring
point in the Mississippi rter.
Thero Is a point out north of Florence
that Is said' to bo tho highest spot In
Douglas county and for that matter the
highest In the eastern part of the state
While no correct measurements havo
ever been made, It Is estimated" to be
2,000 feet nbovo "City Datum" or about
2,963.8 feet abovo Now Orleans. If the
hill could be moved down to the gulf It
would bo a pretty rsspoctablo slxed moun
tain, but h-re it pao off 'or a sightly
spot and attracts no particular attention.
The accompanying cuts glvo some Idea
idea of the height of some of tho-
buildings In Omaha. For Instance,
tho top of tho caps on the Seven
teenth street side of the Hee building
Is marked 267.52. which means that the
point Is this number of feet above the
water mark on the pier of the Union
I'aclflc bridge. To theso figures add 903.8
feet and you will know exactly how far
abovo tho official marking point In tho
Mississippi river the particular caps are.
To ascertain the exact height of the city
hall, the City National bank, tho Union
Pacific headquarters, the Douglas county
court house or any of tho other build
ings referred to In tho sketch, adopt the
same method of figuring and follow tho
same plan and you will know Just ns
much about elevations ns the engineer
who has made this m life study. You may
not bo so well posted ns he on some
other technical things, . but you will be
able to tell to what extent Omaha is
up In tho air.

SENATE TO BE REORGANIZED
Washinpon Leaders Predict Work
ing Bodj of Fifty Democrat!.
SEVEN SEATS STILL DOUBTFUL
Test as to rolltlcnt Lineup of Pro
gressives Kxpected to Come
Boon After Convening;
of Congress.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-"The reor
ganization of the senate by the demo
crats on March 4 Is assured," said Sen
ator Hoko Smith of Georgia today, in
summing up the status of tha senate
after March 4 as a result of the recent
election.
. Senator Smith was among the first of
I thfl rtemorr.ltln aonfilnra tn Hlhrn n
Washington and ho spoke with assurance
ue largely to his familiarity with the
situation on account of his connection
With the senatorial branch of campaign
work. He spent a month In Chicago with
Senator Reed of Missouri, .in looking
fter tho If-glslaturca In various states,
"We" have thirty democrats who hold
over nnd five who already have been
elected, making thlrty-nve," said the
senator. "We havo democrats from
Georgia, Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Mon
tana, Oklahoma, North Carolina, South
Curollna and two from Colorado, who
havo 'been elected In the primaries. The
democrats undoubtedly havo carried t,he
legislatures of New Jersey and Dela
ware, which Insures democratic senators
from each of those states. Advices from
Nevada and Oregon clearly Indicate the
election of democratic candidates fur the
senate. This would give forty nine dem
ocrats or a positive majority of the
senate."
Fifty Deniocrnts In Senate.
Smith was inclined to make additional
claims on the states which are consid
ered doubtful. He said that according to
his advices the democrats will have a
majority of the legislature of Tennessee,
which would Insure a democratic sen
ator from that state. Ho also counted
on further democratic accessions from
Illinois and from some of tho other states
which are still open to doubt.
We can rely safely on fifty demo
crats In tho next senate," he declared.
Senator Smith's summary of democratic
control In the aenato is substantially In
accord with tho general view taken at
the senate wing of the capitol. In other
quarters an Impartial survey of the re
turns gives totals up to the present time
ub follows: Democratls, 43; republicans,
41; doubtful, Ti total -membership, 96.
Tho seven seats still classed as doubt
ful lire the two from Illinois and one
each from Michigan. Oregon, South Da
kota, Tonneesee and Wyoming.
Without any of these seven --doubtful
scats, the present assured democratic
strength of forty-eight is exactly half of
the total membership and Is sufficient
with the vote of Vlco Prosiaent Marshall
on a tlo to control tno senate.
Test for rrouresslves.
The test aa to the political affiliation
of the progressives In tho senate will
come soon after tho convening of con
gress on tho first Monday in December.
If I could havo my way," said Sena
tor Oliver of Pennsylvania, ono of tho
foremost of the standpat republicans to
day, "I would determine the question at
the earliest moment. With the vice prcsl- ',
dent no longer with us, It will become
Imperative to elect a president pro j
tempore of the senate as soon u. we con-,
