The ladies of the First Christian church of Omaha will give a supper and social at their church Friday evening for the benefit of the Loie Royce fund. Every one who can should attend. This is the first church in Omaha to take active steps toward aiding this worthy cause and the ladies of the First Christian church are entitled to great credit for their kindness and generosity. A Generous Man. s ago Hon. John A. McShane con- tri Bar fund, Upon learn- ing of Miss Royce's misfortune Mr. McShane promptly added $100 for that young lady, making his contribution $350. The people ‘who have known Hon. John A. MeShane for many years are not surprised at any gener- ous act of his. In every movement Nebras- ka's congressman has been prompt to respond to the call for aid for the needy. Those who know him need not be told that his generous contrfbutions to the teach- ers' fund is but characteristio of him. At all times a prudent, careful business man, John A. McShane has never failed to contribute to meritoripus movements of .public and pri- vate interests, and those contributions have at all times been noticeable by their liberal amount. That he is a generous man is evidenced by all his acts, and for his prompt tion in the matter of Nebraska’s unfortun- ate teachers, he is entitled to the increased respect and admiration of the people of Ne- braska. The generosity of Mr. McShane should serve as a hint to the many wealthy men of Omaha that, they should follow the excellent example of their public servant. iberality. Resolutions.

The Commissioners Say He Has Not Conformed With Them. The board of county commissioners met in regular session yesterday afternoon, Chair- man O'Keffo presiding. E. A, Dukes' per- sonality tax was placed at 3,250 and put on the county tax roll in that amount; the bond of D. Fitzpatrick for the protection of county warrant for $150.51, thathad been lost, was accepted. The following claims were ordered paid: Louis Grebe, jailer, $07.42; Dr. C. P, Harrington, $35; George . Koon, $12.50; George B. Siryler, $30; Louis Grebe, 84; B. Taylor, $7.50, The salary of the deputy county clerk was ordered paid from the general fund for the months of February and March, and P. R. Sullivan was appointed constable for the Eighth ward. The following was adopted. Mr. Chairman: Your committese on finance, to whom was referred the report of ex-County Clerk C. P. Needham for the year ending January 4, 1889, beg leave to roport that said report is not in accordance with the requirements of the statute, and that said Needham has been requested to furnish an itemized statement of all fees collected and all disbursements made in said ofice during the year aforesaid. ‘Work was ordered to be done on the coun- ter in the office of the city treasurer at an expense not to exceed §45. A communication from M. E.

Com- missioners of Douglas county—Gentlemen: Under date of December 14th we received a letter from tho county treasurer saying that the taxes on Bonfleld were delinquent for the year 1879. During 1883 this property was purchased from John Frank by McCague & Bowman, and at that time all the taxes which weére known to exist were paid, and it was supposed by your petitioners that there were no taxes due aganst this property. Inasmuch as the treasurer faled to report this tax when we appeared to pay all taxes, and ns the books of the treas- urer's oftice will show that the matter was never carried forward until the present ad- ministration we ask that this tax be cancelled from the records. Respectfully, Joux L. 'Mdhnux, Davip H. BowMAN. Protests against exorbitant taxation and assessments from John A. Melquist and D. w_.L tlanu were referred to the judiciary com- mittee, The finance committee was directed to as- sess the s. ¢ n. e. 7-15 and 13, last of Saun- c}:'l;s & Himebaugh's Highland Park ad- dition. 'The bonds of Thomas J. Hickey, road su- pervisor, and Lewis C.

Resolved, That the county clerk be empow- ered to employ the necessary help to make up the assessment books and salaries not ex- ceeding $i3 per month, night work and over time at 85 cents per hour to be paid out of the gencral fund. e THE FREIGHT RATE WAR. The Union Pacific Not Yet in the Affray—S8oon to Join. The telegraphic report to the effect that the Union Pacific had been drawn into the great freight rate war is denied by the of- ficers of the company. Mr. Kimball, gen- eral trafic manager of the company, was seen yesterdsy and che stated that by this morning the company would prob- ably declare their position, but that as yet m cuts in rates had been made. In his opinion the company would be forced to lower their rates, inasmuch as the Bur- lington and Northwbstern had parallel lines with the Union Pacific, and if the latter stood firm to keep up the rates, the two com- peting lines would do all the business. ‘The origin of the great war, as explained by Mr. Kimball, was that the Chicago, Bur- lington & Quincy was supposed to own or control the Chicago, Burlington & Northern, and gave @ lower rate to St. Paul and Minneapolis than that given by either the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul or the Chicago & Northwestern, These two latter roads then notified- the Chicago, Burlington & (fuim-,v peoplo that if they did not make & nigher rate thag they would join forces in a Dbitter attack, and would continue the war- fare until the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy would come to time. . It isnot positively known thatthe Chicago, Burlington uincy own or _ even control the Chicago, Burlington & North- orn, as tho road is office by a distinet and separate management. Mr. Kimball thinks that if the freight rates are lowered to points in Nebraska it will hurt the jobbing trade of Omaha from the fact that both the Northwestern and Chicago, Burlington & Quincy can ship direct from Chicago to local points much cheaper than. the two rates which must be charged by the ‘Omaha jobbers—that is, the rate from Chi- cago to Omaha, and thence from Omaha.

Why the Plumbers Object to Paying $10 For a License, The council was Tucsday night petitioned by the Master Plumbers’ association to reduce the license fee they are compelled to pay from $10 to 2 per year. For a cluss of peo- ple who are popularly supposed to be wealthy o few months after opening business, and who are alleged to die many times million- aires, this objection to the payment of the license sum first mentioned warranted atten- tion. A Bee reporter asked a leading plumb- ing fim this morning why it desired the change, and was told that the license wus excessive. “Why should plumbing firms pay for u liconso any more than grocers, and then, why should they pay $10! Two dollars ought to be sucient. "All that ought to be required 1s to pay the cost of the printing of the license, and §2 ought to pay for such a bit_of paper. We've got to give bonds in 2,500 in both branches of our business. That council ought to get a going-over anyway.

SRR ;3 T A SRS G R GREELY CENTER'S GRIEVANCE, She Thinks Herself Entitled to the County Seat. CAPITAL CITY REPUBLICANS, They Meet and Elect Officers—Monthly Reyports of the Penitentiary and tneane Asylum—Sunpreme Court. Dectsions, [FROM THE BEE'f LINCOLN BUREAU.] On the 17th of January the county of Greeley voted upon the question of the relocation of the county seat. J.R. Hana, M. G. Gearon and J. R. Swain, residents of the town of Greeley Cen- ter, which was declared by the board of canvassers defeated in its struggle for the county seat, have filed their peti- tion in the supreme court asking that mandamus proceedings issue to compel the board of canvassers to recount the returns of the election, and declare the proposition voted upon carried in favor of Greeley Center. The complaint re- cites that the board of canvassers, com- posed of John Kavanaugh, county clerk, and P. H. Berry and A. L. Covey,in their work canvassing the returns throw cut the 121 votes cast in Spring Creek precinct. That 117 of these votes were cast in favor of Greeley Cen- tre, and in throwing them out Greeley Center was deprived of the three-fifths vote requisite to relocate a county seat. The vote of the county, with this precinet cast out, was 1,054, of which Greeley Center received 593 votes. The 117 votes cast in favor of Greeley Center, the petitioners say, would have given the required vote to locate the county seat there. ORGANIZATION COMPLETED. The Capital City Republican ctub met at the district court room Tuesday for the election of permanent officers as required by the constitution and by-laws as adopted. The fellowing well-known republicans were elected: President, Judge C. M. Parker; recording secre- tary, B. F. Johnson; corresponding sec- retary, W, C. Lane; treasurer, M. I. Aitken; executive committee—Elmer Stc?henson, F. W. Collins, Frank M. Hall, John B. Wright, O. E. Goodell, J. E. Philpot. CONVICTS AND INSANE. The monthly reports from the super- intendent of the Lincoln asylum and from the warden of the penitentiary were received and filed with the secre- tary of stato yesterday. In the peniten* tiary January 1 there were 335 convicts; four were received in January, the time of twelve expired and one escaped, leav- ing the total number February 1, 826. In the hospital for the insane there were 409 pauients January 1, fourteen were admitted during the month and nine were discharged, leaving a total February 1in the institution of 413. AN APPEAL TAKEN. A case began in the supreme court yesterday in which Benjamin D. De- orman appeals from the decision against him in the district court of Holt county. The case is a criminal one in which DeYorman was fined $100 for as- sault, and 8138, the cost of prosecution. The copy of the indictment filed with the papers recites that in the month of Sepsember DeYorman assaulted one Jay Redfield with a hdf knife, inflicting in- juries upon him gnd from which the conviction in the lower court followed. A BUSINESS VISIT. Governor Thayer departed yesterday for Springfield, ., and will .be ab- sent from this state eight or ten days. The governor goes to look after arms that the state is procuring for the Ne- braska national guards, and the nature of the busigess requires his personal attendance ai the United States arsenal at that point. The supreme court yesterday handed down the following decisions, the ma- jority of the cases being appeals from the Third district and cases arising in Douglas county: Pheenix Tnsurance company vs Omaha. Error from Dnuglxs county. Affirmed. Opinion by Cobb, J.

The words “personal property,” taxable according to the laws of this state, as the same occur in section 25 of chapter 13 of the compiled statutes of 1885, entitled *‘cities of the first class.” Held, to be used in the sense of ‘‘taxables” or “‘subjects” of taxa- tion, and to embrace all subjects of taxation under the laws of the state other than real estate, which is therein specially named. Omaha Hotel Co. vs. Walters. Error from Douglas County. Afirmed. Opinion by Maxwell, J. 1. Evidence exammned and held to sustain the verdict. 2.

This rail was so arranged as to be taken out when baggage was to be rmsed or lowered by the elevator. The fastenings at one end of the rail had be- come loose and unmsafe, of which the pro- prietor had notice. One W., & patron of the hotel, on leaying the same, in conversation with a friend leaned against the rail in ques- tion, which gave way and precipitated him partly in the area-way below causing him to strike on the edge of the sidewalk, from which he sustained severe injuries. Held, ‘That it was the duty of the hotel company to keep the rail in question in a safe condition, and that it was liable for the injuries sus- tained by W. Black vs Stein: Hanksvs Stein. Hayes county. Affirmed, Cobb, J. Under section 31 of chapter 78 of the stat- utes, providing for the establisnment of roads, held, that & party having due notice under said statute of the establishment of a public road over his premises, and having neglected within the time provided to remove his fences, the euforcement of penalty aud costs for such neglect is not an abridgement of his rights under sections 3 and 15 of article 1 of thecon- stitution of this state, and he is not thereby deprived of his propgrty without due process Error from Opinion . by . of law. Segear vs Segear. Tirror fromn Holt county. Affirmed. Opinion by Cobb, J. 1.

Wlicre on the trial of a person accused of orime, he introduced withesses to prove his #ood character, the stato may introduce wit- nesses in rebuttal, although their namnes are not endorsed on the information. In such case the question of character is colluteral to the main issue and, being raised by the de- fondant, the state may call witnosses in re- buttal. Schaller vs The City of Omaha.

It has been well said by a distin- guished writer that ‘“‘the ~Michigan Central is the only ‘Niagara Falls Route’ in the country.” 1t is the only railroad that runs direct- ly by the falls and stops its trains at o point from which all parts of the falls and the rapids are in full view. From this point, called Falls View, the scene from the 'Michigan Central train, whether in its summeor setting of emer- ald or its winter setting of crystal, is one of unexampled grandeur and sub- limity. Asit is on the direct route to New York, Boston, ana New Eng- land, no east-bound traveler should fail to lul(e advantago of it. el An Ord Delegation, The little city of Ord is well represented in Omaba. A committee of citizens of the place are in Omaha for the avowed pur- pose of securing electric lights for their town- It is safe to suy, however, that Ord has other irons in the fire equally as important as the effort to secure electric lighting. ~The party is composed of J. H. Ager, J. L. McDonough, editor of the Ord Democrat, ¥. L. Harris, president of the Ord Nationa! bank, and A. ‘).
