Savage was the first speaker. He spoke of South Omaha as “‘a piace which does more business than any other city of its in the United States, ~ That is to our credit. It is also & fact that we have a large; indebtedness than any other city of our size in the United States.” That is not to our redit. We also have many improvements, ut not to an extent that is co.nmensurate fwith our indebtedness.’ Colonel Savage went on to show the falsity tements contained in the so-called paper, which is publist defeat ion. «'In the first place it states that o we have so much grading, 80 many viaducts, M50 much paving and so miich sewérage, allof Which is paid for. But to you, gentle- nen, that not a dollar of it is paid. 'We have itall to pay for yet.

Morcove he assurance from the Omaha city council that if we are annexed it, will pave at least e, give us a better police serviceand two fire companies.” y J. W. Edgerton was the next peaker. In regard to South Omaha’s finan- al condition he said: *“There is a limit in the commercial world beyoud which a city cannot bond herself and float her bond “That limit is 10 per cent and South Omuha has already exceeded this by §80,000,” Mr. Edgerton also stated that if annexa- tion carried the Armour-Cudaby company in- tended to double the capacity of its plant, and Swift & Co. would also make large additions. he lnst speaker was Chairman Beggy, who facerated David Anderson in a way' that hurdly pleased the anti-onnexationists. Mr. Auderson thought he knew something about he town of Lake and the effect of anuexation there. Chairman Beggy -was right at home avhen Lake was being discussed, and the way e knocked David out was a caution, The o/ mecting cheered him to- the echo, and when his speech was epneluded the successful an- mexation meeting adjourned for another yound tonight, Givorge W. Makepeace rode a white horse down to Albright at the head of the ‘‘anti rocession Monday night. The Fovesters band vas behind him and about two hundred vo vs were in line, 5. Van Dusen and I ascall were tho speakers. Mr. Van Dusen’s specch was heartily applanded. — Hascall's talk was mainly devoted to a tirade of abuse ieaped on the editors of Ormaha papers and on everybody in- general who was in favor of annexation, The City Council Meeting. | Tho annexation meetings drew their hare of South Omaha's attention ut much interest was attached to the result of the regular monthly council meeting. The ‘pands played and the drums beat but a good portion of the out-at-night crowd hung around the corner of Twenty-sixth and N streets to hear before they tucked themselv v ed whether the salooukeepers had secured \eir licenses or not. All the councilmen were present and they vere gazed upon by a well filled lobby. Rou ine business was of little interest. Every- body was awaiting the license committee re port and the action taken upon it When the minutes had been read and ap- roved imcllman Johnston stated that as Lie principal object of the meeting was to pass upon the applications for liquor licenses and us the passage of an ordinance was ne essavy. before any license could be granted, he moved that the rules be suspended and the brder of business governing the introduction of ovdinunces be taken up. The motion prevailed and an ordinance was yead the first and second tim ulating the yunning of saloons in the city of South Omaha. Couneilman Towle moved that $1,000 be in- serted as the annual license to be paid. The . motion was lost, only Towle and Johnston + yoting in favor of the cha he ordinance was then referred to the or- +finance committec Aftor disposing of a lot of routine busines: “Councilman O'Rourke moved to take the Joon ordinance from the hauds of the comumit- tee and that the.council go into committee of he whole to consider it.

Two-thirds of the council failing o vote for suspension of the rules the ordi- pance went over until tonight when the coun il will meet again. A forerunner of what will oceur before any Yicense will be granted was the protest against issuing a license to Augusta Hanuse, present- ®d by Chavles A, Payunk. It recites a whole salo violation of the Slocumb law e long-standing claim of Donovan & Co. for #1,011.65 for extras for sewer bullding was allowed, Towle alone voting “no.”’ City A torney Furnsworth protested against allow- fug the claim, declaring it clearly illegal, but it went through just the same, Of Intevest to Saloonmen. Many of the saloonkeepers of South Omaha mre undecided what course to pursue in the ewergency in which they are placed. Monday lght tho councit started an ordinance on its “way to a final passage which provides for L% Bunday closing and o $500 lcense. Mayor Sloane's vote in favor of the Sunday closing section of the ordinance practically commits him to an enforcement of the law. In this position of affairs” the SAIOOHWED WI0 &6 offin South Omaha as they would bein Omaha with the exception of $500 license in stoad of §1,000, ‘The result of Thursday’s election in case it goes for anuexation, will make no change whatever in their condition if they can only seo it right and nov stand in their own light The clamations of both, Mayor Cushing and Mayor Sloane must issue before annexa- tion can become a fact. This cannot be done for somo time after the annexation election In the meantime all the saloonmen will legally have compliod with the law and certainly have secured _their licenses Wt _the rate of §00 a year. “Will the saloons be allowed to run on the 500 license if annexation ocours?” is th question agitating the saloon men. To find out how Omaha will treat the saloon men if annoxation carrics, Mayor Cushing was seen yesterday by Tie South Omaha representative. After stating the condition of affair Cushing was asked: “When anne declared will the South Omaha s ses be raised to §1,0001" fore the oficial proclamations are isssed the South Omaha saloon men are {ssued liconses for the year by the South Omaha cit at the ‘rate of #500, Omaha must these licenses as binding and no steps will bo taken or can be taken to raise them to #1,000 during the year for which they are issued, That is my understanding of the situation and I do not think there will be any i tion to be unfair in the matter.” I will see what City Attorney Poppleton thinks about it,” said the mayor and the city vi hed by telephone. v Cushing :-q»luim-J the situation r the telephone and the city attorney’s fon was in conformity with the position taken by the mayor, thata £500 license will hold good for a year so far as South Omaha's saloons are concerned, provided they aro i sued before the process of annexation is ac- tually completed. sterday Tre Ber representative talked n ative saloon man about the on and told him of the mayor’s inter- “If that is the case T am going to work amexation and will advise all my fellow for salogonkeopers to do the same,” he said. “Sunday closing we must abide by, so have we got to lose! - If we work for annexa- the rate of §00 will be on a good_footi saloon men, When On commences on January 1 next we can take out new licenses at the vate of $1,000 and be allowed a rebate to the amount of $125, the aha's saloon sum we will have to our ecredit May 1 next, the expiration of South Omaha's saloon year.

After more informal _discussion of the sub- ject, Dr. Gapen produced the dvaft of 'an ordinance to regulate the pro- duction and sale of milk.

George Brown, the purse snatcher, has scored another point. He finished a ten days' sentence;, for wrenching a hand satchel from a young lady on Eighteenth street, and utilized the first few hours of his freedom in seeking victims carrying purses and unprotected. He found one on the corner of Nineteenth and Chicago in the persou of Mrs. J. A. Kernan who lives at 1913 California, and captured her purse containing some small ehange. Mrs. Kernan dropped an_armful of bundies and raised an outery which called the attention of Frank Dillon, the driver of a butcher wagon, who was passing at the time, Dillon threw the lines to & companion and started in pursuit.
