There no conditions of the pion of the Northwest Douglas county delegation relative to the new charter, returned yesterday morning. They are all exceedingly well pleased with their trip not only on account of their courteous recept- fon by the legislalive representatives, but be- cause of the wunderstanding arrived at ze of the charter, Judge Savage stated to a reporter for the Bre that the Lincoln journey and consulta- iion with the Douglas county delegates were jatisfactory in every way. A joint meeting was held 'Tuesday night, at which were pres- mt the members of the legislature, the Omaba citizens referred to aud sev- aral gentlemen representing other inte psts affected by the charter. The railroad laxation section seemed to be the real ques- tion on which an important difference of opinion existed. When the Judge was called upon to interpret its real meaning he said he felt certain that fully one-half of the delega- ion did not understand its full meaning. When it was shown that no attempt was being made to tax the railroad right of way but only property belonging to the companies mjoining the right of way, or owned and used by them for other than railroad pur- S, ditticulty in the minds of the delo- med removed, ‘The sectlon of tho proy; charter relative to viaduct ap- ronches was left as it cawe originally from he committeo of fifteen, Therc was some little discussion on other matters, such as printing, the $200 tax uxn'm]slluu clause, etc., Lul the delegation had evid uml?' decided on all other points and agreed to the cha origially settled upon by the committee fifteen with only slight” changes, making clearer the meaning of the rairoad and via- duct sections, “Yes,” continued Judge Savage, “there was o general agreement for the passag the charter when the sections alluded to werd properly understood. ‘The gentlemen who accompanied me siened a resolution thank- ing the dele ion for their reception and ex- pressing tl isfaction that the charter would pass. There is no objectionable fe tures of importanee in it thai will fnter growth and prosperity of Omal OF course, it is idle to talk of charter or of a constitution that in every minute particular will suit everybody, On ¢, the charter as drafted by the com- mittee, with the slight changes alluded to, is a good one and should pass.” In fact, I am certain it will,” *How do you think the members from other parts of the state will act in, the mat- il “Well, as faras I can see, they are all in favor of giving Owmana such wmunicipal legislation ~ as 'its citizens desire when itiu no way interteres with their respective localities or interests. In fact, they think that the eharter should have been' disposed of before this; that oo much time has been aken up with it already, which in a manner has delayed legislation” atfectivg other por- tions of the iy “Will the er be taken up at once?” “Yes. The understandingarrived at Tues- day night was that the charter should pass the senate as originally,introduced, to-day, When t reaches the house the signt cnanges al- luded to will be made and there will remain only the work of the eomumittee of confer- ence, and 1 think the new charter will be a law very soon. In fact, it would be a great damage to Omaha did it not. The amend- ments, if introduced in the senate, wou eourse necessitate a reterence to' eon Y aud cause delay. Hence you see that the members are anxions to have the bill passed as soon as possible. The Douglas county delegation means to do what is right and proper tor Omaha, 1 tiink.” W. V. Morse spoke of the citizens' visit to oln in substance the same as Judge Say sald the charter was with a few slight chanses the same as it was when it it eame from the hands of the committed of fifteen, In his opinlon it would so pass unless something entirely ~unlooked for urises. “1 think it would be disastrous to Omaha’s intorests if it did not,"" b {--m the Douglds county del o what is right. They treated us in the BOs COULIER W HUARNSH and seemed only de- doubt but these gentlemen wish to do e thing they can for the interests of Omaha, cially in the passage of a charter that will be of benetit to the city. We had a meeting Tuesday night, pleasing in every re- spect, I think, "to all “concerned. There seemed to be a general feeling to arrive at a conclusion that would be of benelit to Omaha " *Do you thinlk the charter will pass?” *1 think it will and it certainly should.” “Will thero be any chauges of impor- tan 0, Not from the proposed charter as agreed upon by the original committee of fifteen, The scetlon referring to railroad [ emed to bo the one on which the of the le; iture were notexactly nds the c originall tion, with th ation, which is that railroads shall pay tax onall property owned by them whethe eix rightof way of not, which is not strictly ine of their legitimate business he Douglas county delegation seems to be working nard to get the charter passed, Mr, Yates?” **Yes, and I think one and all are doing the best they can to satisfy Omaha and their constituency, and of course the stateat large, for Omaha’s welfare is Nebraska’s welfare,” Action of the Knights of Labor, A regular meetingof the Knights of Labor was held in Clark’s hall Tuesday evening, and after the transaction of regular business the doors were thrown open to the publie for a general discussion ot the new charter, Every ly of the Knights of Labor in the eity represented, besidee many promin des union wen and honest workers in th cause of labor, making in all an audience of fully 500 c \ eral stirring speeclies were made, and the proposed eharter was in- lvllluun”?‘ and carefully discussed up to 11 o'clock, the hour of adjournmer The great majority of sentiment was in favor of the passage of the charter in its original shape, There was very little opposition’ manifested and that was seemingly more for the pur- pose of drawing out the best explanation of the different seetions than through any de- sire to defeat the passage of the charter, A resolution was unanimously passed to the offect that it was the desire of the Knights of Labor of Omal @ the Douglas county deiegation in islature use all honora- ble me: secure the passage of the new charter as introduced in the senate, and that said resolution be telegraphed to the Douglas county delegation to-day.
