Aa the minute details of this kind are
not yet all worked out, there Is a possl

be made, although the Hlkhorn people
liavo regarded It as a settled fact that
the highway was to pass through their

from Omaha to Elkhorn and then to Wa

to fcave the road come through their town
nnd then pass on to Waterloo. This dif

In deciding upon the final route the con

As to Crooked Lawyers Two More Letters
FROM TIIH COMMITTEE:
OMAHA, Oct 31. Victor IloBewater, Editor of The Bee: On receipt
of your letter of October 1G, In reply to the committee's of October 13, tin;
Conimltteo of Inquiry of tho Omaha Bar association requested Mr. Francis
A. Drogan to nppear before it and enlighten the committee with regard to
your reference to him.
Mr. lirognn prompt- compiled and Htatc( that lie, with Mr. William
Ilalrd anil Mr. E. 1. Hmlth, wcro appointed n special committee by the
Judges of the district court some time In 1012 to Investigate certain com
plaints made against certain members of the local profession practicing !n
Omaha, and that this Mcclnl committee carefully Investigated nil complaint
received and reported to the Judges of tho district court recommending pro
ceedings against one lawyer, and that such matter is still in tho hands of tho
Judges of the district court, the special committee having no power to do
more man to make and fllo Its report. t
This Committee of Inquiry, on tho other hand, Is one nppolntcl by tho '
Omaha liar nsoclatlon and makes ltn report to such with regard t the
subject tnnttcr of the report mado by tho special committee to tho Judges
of tho district court.
The Committee of Inquiry, however, Is desirous of knowing any facts,
which apparently are In your possession, with reference to Illegal unprofes-j
slonal conduct on tho part of certain members of the legal profession
from tho veiled references which you havo mado In editorials appearing in
Tho Beo from time to time since tho editorial entitled "What Omaha Needs.'
The Committee of Inquiry again urgently requests that you promptly
place before It such facts as you havo and such complaints with regard to
any member of tho bar, and tho samo will receive Immediate nttentlon by
the committee. If you desire to appear beforo tho committee, it will sit at
a tlmo and place suiting your convenience; or, If you prefer that a tlmo
should be fixed, Monday, November 3, at 1:30 p. ni., In named, and the placu

Since my last communication Mr. Balrd, who served as chairman of tho
pedal committee appointed by tho district Judges, has told me that tho
tlmo limit of his conimltteo expired nearly a year ago, and did not cover any
ot tho crooked work dono Blnco thon.
Since your letter further says that your association nnd conimltteo has
no power except ns a self-constituted body, nothing remains for mo under
tho circumstances but to repeat that "I have nothing to coininunlt'nto to
your conimltteo In secret different from what I have to communlcato to tho
public at largo through the columns of Tho Itc, in which thin subject will

One of the chief feature entertilnments
for the thousands of visitors to the oon
ventlon of the Nebraska State Teachers'
association, In session hore Novembtr 5
to 7, Inclusive, will, It Is expected, lie sup.
piled by the annual exhibit ot the Omaha
Art Olid at the public library. Tho fa
vprable criticism that haa already been
accorded the work of Omaha artists this
jrear seems to warrant th confidence of
the committee as to the Impression thnt
will be made upon aesthetic, "school

Four hundred visitors filed through the
exhibit rooms at tho library Saturday, tha
opening night of the art shpw, and more
than 30 persons took advantage ot their
leisure Sunday afternoon to visit the art
exhibit. Tho greatest throngs, however,
are expcted during this week. The tx

evening this week, Including Sunday,
Many artlaU who never beforo have

jilayed. Several ot the- paintings have
been pure lias ed by visitors. Among thaw
are water colors by Miss Augusta Knight,
art Instructor at tha 'University of Omaha,
and Mlsa Lilian Ituderdorf, South Omaha.
Both wero sold to M. A. Hall. The por
trait of T. H. Tibbies, by J. Laurie Wal
lace, alio ha been sold.
It any nota of .disappointment has ben
voiced by visitors to the exhibit ot the
Omaha Art Olid, It haa been not con
cerning the character of the work shown,
but deploring a scarcity of tho black and
white drawings. Assurance has been
given that more of this popular variety
will be exhibited next year.

Electioneering at
Teachers' Meeting
Local suffragists threw an electioneer
ing stuad Into the lobby of the Itome
hotel yesterday, when Omaha teachers
began to register for the meeting of .the
state association.
Suffrage societies, It Is understood, are
combining to boost Miss Kate MoIIugh
of the Omaha High school for president.
The teachers vote as they register, nom
inating the candidates from whom offi
cers aro later chosen.
Although the registrars looked with dis
favor on the "vote pullers" at the Home,
they were without power to keep them
"100 feet from the polls." The suffragists
charged Into the registering teacher with
enthusiasm.
Some of the teachers said they were
sure the vote on the candidate for presi
dent waa being divided. A large, number
favor Chancellor Samuel Avery of thu
University of Nebraska for the head of
the association.

Angry When Notified
He Won Land Chance
George Murdock, a clerk at Union Pa

dividuals whoso name wun mentioned In
the land drawing at North Pintle and
he Is mad about It.
The first Intimation that Murdock re
ceived thai, bin name was among thoiA
of the lucky ones came Sunday morning
at 3 o'clock. At that hour he was en
Joying a peaceful slumber. Tho door
bell rang a number of times and at last
awakened Murdock. Hurrying down, ho
found a messenger boy with a telegram
that announced that his number In the
land drawing was l,k. As there are
lest than 700 tracts ot land for distri
bution, Murdook Is of the .opinion that
lis Is the victim of a Joke and that Uncle
Sarti Is the Joker. He Is not losing any
sleep over the prospect of having to
give up his Job to go out and hold down
a claim.
