A. C. Kugel, commissioner of street
cleaning and maintenance, Is aroused
over criticism of the streets wlilch are
alleged 'to be dirty and are kept unclean
Mr. Kugel has written several cities, and
has '.secured data to prove -that the
Omaha charter does not "give the street
cleaning department sufficient money to
Keen' the streets clear of rubbish. Here
arc the statistics he has compiled:

PCASHARETS WORK" WHILE YOTI SLEEP."
The city commission has instructed tin
city abstracter to secure signatures to
paving petitions for paving Hurt street
from Twenty-fourth to Twenty-eighth
streets, following n sharp disagreement
between paving contractors and chargei
of fraud, including forged acknowledge
ments of signatures, which occurred be
fore the commission today.
Several property owners were, piesent
and admitted signing two or three peti
tions, for brick and asphalt. An attorny
roprcfentcd the asphalt contractors, John
J. Mahoney and father Kelly spoke for
the brick contractors.
Prank A. Furay, who wants the street
paved with asphalt, told the city commit
slon that commissioners were "using
every technicality to prevent the ayplmlt
signers from naming the material."
Commissioner Hyder moved that all
petitions, which were Insufficient, be
thrown out and another petition, to lie
used for advisory purposes merely, as the
commission must select the material, no
secured by u disinterested person.
"Thrown all tlm petitions out," said Mr.
Ityder. "It Is evident there Is some
crooked work here. The work of these
paving promoters Is demoralizing. I am
In favor of doing away with the pro
moter." Commissioner McGovern favored select
ing a material at once. He' agreed that
the work of the paving promoter was de
moralizing and said: "Hereafter none of
these promoters will sacure. Information
from my office. They must keep out,"

The row In question occurred over the
signature of Wallace Benjamin, which
had been, signed to two petitions, and
acknowledgement of one signature made
by a notary In Council Bluffs. This peti
tion was sec ii red by an employ of the
health department, who had been laid off
for a month.
It appeared that acknowledgment of
this signat' re -was ret submitted by the
leal iltkUartrasnt when tha rxttitin
given for examination as to Its suf
ficiency, but somebody had gained access
to It In the city clerk's office and In
serted the acknowledgment,
Commissioner Hummel said he had
grown weary of listening to the com-
flalnts of these paving promoters and
avored some mode of pioceduro that
would eliminate them. "If we listen to
their quarrels wo will be heie six days
In the week and twelve hours a day," he
Instructions to the city abstracter
that ho shall report In two weeks,
will simply present the petitions to
residents and will In no vase discuss
merits of the paving material.
A petition was secured last night
the asphalt promoters, following iet
ponement of action by the commissioners
yesterday. This petition was re-ad, but the
councllmen took no official notlco ot It.
