Pacific § ST pany for 1 ast Omaha Com- st Contrae A suit has been begun in the federal court which involyes matters of more than ordi- nary to the city of Omaha. The Union Pacific railroad is the plaintiff and sues the Omabta comnany to compel them to fulfill fhe terms of tered into by the two 1880, ° It is claithed that according to the con tract the East Omaha company bound itself to deed the railroad a strip of land 100 feet wide and extending the enti th of their river frontage. In consideration of this the Union Pacific was to construct tracks to connect with the tracks of the Iast Omaha company according to the di- retions of the latter. The petition also alleges that the East Omaha company agreed to grant the Union Pacific railroad the exclusive right to locate, build and oporate tracks across all east and streets except Locust street and that Jast Omana has recently brolen the contract by its arrangement with the Fast Omaha Bridge company. The pet tiouers ask that the defendants be compelle to fultill the act and that it | enjoined from granting any righits m the Premises Lo auy other corporation Judge John M. Thurston. general solicitor of the Union Pacific. in speaking of the matter said: The contract between the Union Pac and the East Omaha company was substantially this: The ( Pacific was to build a main tracik into Omaha and such sietracks as should be desired for industrial ts there estab- lished. AS a consideration for this the Land company agreed to give us a deed of the right of way which we should quire and not to grant any other company companics any privilezes upon their wround. . But remember this did not prevent other companies from coming in by coa demnation ceedings. This exclusive' clause, as it may be called, was one o1 the chief inducements to the contract and it is this which d company has violated by transferring rizhts to the bri tge and terminal company At the same time we made a contract with the Burlington, giving it the joint use of any tracks we should build to and in Omaha, Sowe two years ago Omaha Land company asked us to construet idetrack to anasphalt plunt which John nt proposed to build. We did not lay the k because the plant was never built and because also the Union Pacitic felt that it ougiit not todo ony more work until the promised deeds for right-of-way were yiven We had already coustructed two miles of main hne and numerous sidetracks, and felt that it was the dutyof the land company. to do something in return. 1 am informed that this is the breach which we are alleged to have committed and upon which the land company buses its hopes of winning _in the present contest. As to this alleged breach, I have only to say that the company which T represent feels no utcome, believing that the courts will not look upon it as a breach ry much if the land company ever deemed it a breach on our part, in fact 1 be. lieve it fully untended to carry out the terms of the contract until the bridge and terminal company was.organized. We have always stood ready, and now stand ready tocarry out the further terms of the contract upon recerving a deed as promised. The policy of the land company for the past two years has been to istinate and to profess during this time » willingness to giveus a deed, but it has failed until now to do so. ‘The Union Pacitic_ company expended nearly F100.000 in “This it has done willingly and in good faith with the expectation that the East Omuha company would act in the same way. The Union Pacific has a right to expect that the terms of its contract be carried out and shall insist upon it. This bill in equity was filed simply o prevent the East Omaha compan from disposing of the privileges granted te the Union 1} ific company I'here was some question as to whether the contract could be recorded, so us to give invocent third partics notice of our rights, and this suit was begun principally for’ this pur- pose. S0 soon as it was begun the world had notice of our rights and if any one then bought of the land company they would buy subject to those rights Whether the Burlington road will be on our side in this controversy, I cannot say. All know is this, that many of the prominent of: als of the Burlngton own k in th ast Omaha company, and Mr. Greene, th attorner, acts for both. Further, the Bridge and Terminal company was organized within the East Omaha company and is practically the same institutic Yes, we believe we have the right in the matter and shall not give an inch.” interest Ioust ontract en- companics June 1, the companv previous cont clansc 58 1S 1o the has already East Omaha - High Water ln North Dakota, St. Pavt, Minu., April 16,—A Fargo, N.

He considered it a pleasure for the reason that he had been at | it 50 long. and out of the twelve hundred and some odd churches that he had dedicated in the United States, only about a dozen of them were clear of debt at the time of dedi- cation. ‘lhe Wesley church had cost the congregation but about £1,500. owing to the fact that the building had been donited by the Hanscom park congregation. But the cost of moving and of repairing and painting had run the congregation behind about 00 ind the people were therefore asked to con- tributa this amount.
