CITY HALL SITE. SENTINENT. he Seal of Oonu-nnnuon Stamped | Upon the Jefferson Square Deal. UNBIASED OPINION OF CITIZENS. The Structure Located on Farnam Street By the Will of the Peo- ple and There It Ought to Remain. Public Opinfon Regarding the Oity Hall Site. In order to ascertain the opinion of property-holders and prominent citizens as to whether a change of the oity hall site is @esired by them, the Brr has quite thorough- ly canvassed the business spctions of the city; and to-day presents the first installment of popular sentiment : M. Elgutter—Am most emphaticsily posed to any other than the present site. James Stephenson—Of course I am opposed fo any removal. The proper place for the gity hall is opposite the county court house A. T\ Rector—There is no reason for any hange in the logation, It is the best place in he clé?’ and I will never vote to change it. Wilhelmy—I am i favor of a re- hlml from its present site. |Mr. Wilhelm y declined to state his reason’'s or at what llélnt e would like to see the building erect- ed. A Haney—Most certainly T am against any removal. I shall oppose it whenever I can. will I(I‘II%ATIIK‘ present location is the one we want. here is no reason for moving. The expense would be great and Iam em- phntlmlll{{uppolcd to the proposed change. owes—It would be nonsense to chnnfi the location. Put medown as pledged jnst any such proposition. Ribbel—Am emphatically opposed to m. ’clmnEa Edmund Peycke—Would not for an in- #tant serionsly consider a proposition to change the site. By all means put me down a8 thoroughly opposed to any such scheme. Juliue Meyer—You can say that 1 am thoroughly opposed to any removal. I wonld like 1'1'" see the work being pushed rapidly for- ward, ‘W. H. Hughes—There is no occasion for a yemoval. The people have voted to locate thecity hall on the present site and a largs sum has been expended on the foundation, J. T. Robinson—I can see no reason for making a change, The proper place for the city hall isat Eighteenth and Farnam, and I will oppose the selection of any other. Robert Easson—Inasmuch as a large sum ptmoney has already been expended and furthermore that the present site is the most desirable in the city, I am heartily opposed to uny change. H. H. Meday—You can put. me down as most emphatically opposed to any change of location, and Ishall not only vote against such a proposition but use all my influence in the same direction. Henry W. Yates—On general business principles I am opposed to any change of lo- cation. Iam not as well informed on the subject as I should be,and there may be strong arguments on the part of those favor- ing a removal. . W. Saxe—It would be very foolish to change the location of the city hall. Iam duc'n edl arninm‘, it. uelier—Of course I favor the pres- Ent locrmon and will use all my influence in its favor, L. D. Kennedy—This talk of changing the city hall location is too much like child’s play. I am opposed to any change. The presont site is the most desirable 1 the city. George H. Guy—Never would vote for a change of location. Welty—I am in favor of sitting down upon any councilman who attempts to defeat the chioice of the people as to the city hall location. It's the one we want and I think llle hl.\\l will be built there. . Williams—I can't understand why lmy cflort should be made to change the loca- tion. Let the work go on under the plans adopted. D! Sullivan—T favor the present plans and site. Work should be bogun at once. 1 R, E. Stein—There is no reason why the site should be changed. I favor the original lans. & C. B. Smith—In my opinion the city hall should be much larger than indicated in the Myers plans, but the proper location is at Eighteenth and Farnam. . Shiveriok—I am heartily opposed to any chnn;m in the original plans and specifica- tions or of any other change. Ed Maurer—I favor a removal, but not to Jofferson square. Should like to see the hall erected two blocks north of the preseut site 80 that it would be more central. . Nowman—On genoral business prin- viples wouid vote against any chango of loca- ion. L. Drake—I am heartily in favor of the resent site and think work should be pushed orward gs rapidly as possible. B. B. Woods—I am not as well posted on the situation as I might be, but as a large sum bas al been spent I should go ahead with the work. George W. Cook—The present site is' the nlmnl site for the city hall. It would be folly to make o chu‘fin Samuel Burns—I did not want the city hall at Bighteenth and Farnam streets in the first Elhwo But as the people chose that location say let it be there. A. D. Morse—There is no justice or right in the attempt ‘to chlnqfi the location of the city hall. Its present site is the proper one, and I shall do all in my wv.-r 10 defeat any propasition mkmglw ajchange. S. A. Orchard—I am decidedly in fayor of the city hall bewg builton the present site n;nl shall oppose any proposition to make a chany Milton Rogers—I want to see the city hall built at Eighteenth and Farnam strects, Undml- no circumstances would I favor a re- moval. Mr. Belden, of Thompson, Belden & I don't know why any change should be made. Jefferson square is the last place in the city where I would want to see it, Kuahn Brothers—We are emphatically op- posed to dny change in the location. The l).‘il.m" site iswhere the city hall should be uilt. L. O. Jones—It is essential to the conven- ince of the people of Omaha that the city hall should be built at Eighteenth and Farnam, and I am opposed to any change whatever in tho original plans. J.'T. Kinsler—Go on with the work at once 18 what I suy. Wedon't want any other lo- cation or plans. M. Hellman—1 would not vote for any change in the location of the city hall. The work should goon, and be commenced at once r D, H. Bowman—Let the work on the city ball be pushed at once, It's the best location in um [ nly Tamilton—T cannot say that T favor llu- pn-m'nl site. but I would prefer it to Jef- ferson squal My objection to Eighteenth and Farnam is that it would be hidden from view by the Beg building. John Field—It should remain where it is— this Jefferson square job should be discounte- nanced by every taxpayer in the city. R E I\llul—'llm only difficulty whh the lnuwnl Site is, it strikes me, an insufiiciency of room-~-otherwise the loeation is tip-top. Judge Berka—The people voted on the site, lndl think their voice should be the law in this matter. Again, it is central, ac- eortainly suits a majority of our his wrangle is certainly ill-timed and uncalled for, F. E. Munn—Am decidedly of the opinion that the city hall !fimuhl 80 right up where it is. Thesite could not well be improved upon. John §. Wood—Auother popular vote would settle the matter—that the building should be comploted whore it has been begun. Jefferson square wiil do well enough for market place. Building Inspector Whitlock—I don’t want to be interviewed, but will say that the build- iug should menly be erected within the city limits, Chief of Police Seavey—I think Omaha is destined to be a greav city, and the day is bound to come when a loud ery will be heard for resting places or parks. Haunscom park, outside of Jefferson square, is the pearest re- sort we have. Think the ‘m‘fl who have the interests of Omaha at heart ought to con- sider this question. Let the city hall remain ‘where it is—keep Jefferson square for a park for the children, beautify and adorn it, make e '.Nna of buu aud a joy forever. 'ne ball should be built upon its pnunz 1 site, without further delay or monke, 3 Gonorsl Goorge 8.

A. M. Aiken—Jefferson square should not be taken into consideration. 1t is not a lun- atic asylum or a sanitarium, we're after but a city d & city hall should be built as nearly in the center of the business portion of the town as possible. Let it go where it you put The is, 1. Brown—I think the present location the best and shall oppose its removal. D. Rudd—I think Jefferson square the best location, C. S. Higgins—1I want the city ball right where the fouridation is located, opposite the court house. I shall oppose any proposed change. S, opklns—l.emelun its present looa- tion by all mean W. ©. Bodman--1 think the present site tho pro) rpluoe W. J. Vanarman—Let it remain where it s, C. W. Canfield—1 think the present looca- rosent location and would like to see the nilding ompleted. Hoover & Watts—We want the building erected in it4 present site, This moving bus- iness 1ooks like & job. Kirchbraum & Sons—We believe the pre- sent_location the best—it is centrally lo- cated, is adjacent to the court house, and is the best adapted in every respect. A. H. Behrens—I think the best location in the city is tho present site and am strongly opposed to removal. W. Carpenter—The cuough for. me, and uilding completed. Ferrall & Welchi—Wo belicvo tho present Tocation to be the best for all pury It central, near the court house and on whore & solid foundation 18 assured. Fred W. Gray—I think the present loca- tion a good one and would be in favor of pushing the work as rapidly as possible. I Bi%b favor the secaring of additional. quarter of a block of ground _on Douglas_street for an addition ut some time in the future. Charles R. Lee—The present location in my opinion is the, best, as the city hall and court house will bo near each other as they should be. A change would be injurious. The amount of money invested would be lost and the taxpayers would suffer greatly. J. E. Wilber—I huve not given the matter the consideration it merits, but the present location is & good one and by the purchase of & quarter of a block more ground for use in the future it would be the most available site in_the o S. Arnstein—I think that the building shonld remain where it is. After expending as much money s has boen spent, it would be a piece of folly to abandon it. The prox- imity of the court house makes it more de- sirable, T want to sec the building completed. A. Dillon—I don’t care whero they put it. James Bonner—In consideration of the fact that the people voted 1o place it on the location mentioned, and that a large amount, of money has already been expended on the foundation, I am in favor of its remaining where it is, and will protest against any change: Board & Otis—The present locatlon is cen- tral, let it stay there. Gladstone Bros.—If we had our choice we would say let it remain where it is. C.J. Conan & Co.—Our taxes are heavy enough, Leave it where it is and do not im- poso additional burdens by abandoning the present site where so much money has al- ady been expended. William Fleming—I have mo particular choice as to location but before abandoning the present site I should want to be well sat- isfied that @& change was absolutely neces sary. H, J. Fuller—The city hall and court house should be as close together as practicable. Therofore let it remain_where it is. Little & Williams—The people want the city hall erected on the site selected, we are with the people. A new election wouid not. change matters. J. A. Fuller—I think it should remain where it is. The sito is a good one and is lo- cated next the county building, and a good reason for not making the change is that a large amount of money has been expénded which should remain where t is, 00, for con- venience sake, and in case of a new election I shall vote for it to remain where it is. G. A, Weldon—I am in favor of leaving it where it is. E. G. Ballou—If the prosent foundation is not safe_remove the building to Jefferson square. I it is all right let it remain where itis, and do not lose the amount already in- resent location is want to see the osted. . W. Lindse; oy I should prefer to havo the building erected on the present site. Itis the elghth of folly to drop the amoun invested select another. *"Kuhn Bros,~Would prefer to have it re- main where it is and not make a change after the large amount expended. A change would be nonsensical. Norris & Wilcox—Wo would prefer to have it remain where it is. N. B. Falconer—Let it remain where it is. County Superintendent of Poor Mahoney— The building should be erected on the site selected by the people, and there should be a stop put to this shenanigan. County Commissioner O'Keefe—The peo- ple voted to put the building on Farnam mm ‘and thelr wishes should be complisd with. Itisall wrong at this late da tompt to thwart the will of the voters, and saddle an additional expense on the tax- payers. TRecorder of Deeds Mogeath—I am strongly opposed to the building of the city hall on Jefferson square, or any other structure ou the grounds. . They should be beautified and fixed up for park purposes. The Farnam street site is & good enough one for the city hall, City Clerk Southard—I don't care a tinker's outfit where they put the city hall. How- ever, if another vote is to be taken on the se- lection of a site I will vote for Kountze's ad- dition, County Commissioner Mount—I am not in fayor of moving the site, and I think I voice the sentiment of the community at large in saying that the building should be put up at once. Delays are costly things. County Commissioner Anderson—I don't care where the hall is located. The people have voted for its site once, and that ought to settle it. Captain Ijams—I want to see the hall built where the people voted it to be. Thereshould be no more dilly-dallying about it either. LS.L.
