REMAINDER TO BEAUTIFY SURROUNDINGS Nothing Will Be Done on Construc- tion Work This Fall, as Build- ings om Property Have Been Leased. Of the $70,000 which Andrew Carnegle has promised to donate to Council Blufts for a library bullding, the Board of Trustees of the publio library has decided to only use #0000 for the building proper, the re- maining $20,00 to be expended on improv- ng the grounds furnishing the bullding and paying the fees of the two firms of architocts, There 18 no expectation that work will begin on the new buflding this year, as the board at its last meeting authorized the president {o enter into a contract with the present tenants of the Pusey home, now_dccupying the lot, for three months, the p ty having passed into the pos- session of the city on September 16. Grant C. Miller, of the firm of Patton & Miller, the firm of architects designated in the contract to draw the plans and specifications, is expected here this week, and If on behalf of his firm he accepts the contract as amended at the meeting of the board Friday evening, he will stay here and prepare preliminary plans for the building until the board finally approves them. Woodward Brothers, of this city, the firm selected to act in conjunction with Patton & Miller, will have superin- tendence of the architectural construction, Woodward Brothers have signified their willingness to nccept the contract as amended, and it is belleved Patton & Mil- ler wi The two firms of architects will receive 6 per cent. of the cost of the building in payment of their services, of which Patton & Miller will get 3 per cent. and Woodward Brothers 2 por cent. It is not unlikely that the board will also secure the services of some competent local man to supervise the work of construction in the interest of the board. The two firms of architects under the terms of the contract will be required to furnish a bond n the sum of $5,000 for the falthful performance of their duties, THe board is scheduled to meet Monday night, October 5. .

DEMOCRATS EXPECT TO ELECT NO ONE Only Hope is That by Putting Up = St Fight They May Be Able Cut Down the Repub- lean Majority. to (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Sept. 21.—(Special)—The chajrman of the republican state commit- tee went to Davenport this evening and tomorrow he will meet with the republican leaders of the Second congressional dis- trict for a conference on the pelitical situ- ation. In the evening a similar conference will be held in Burlington for the repub- lican leaders of the Kirst congressional district. This will close the serles of con- ferences held I the republican state com- mittee preliminary to the siate campatgn. Chalrman Spence and Manager Dawson of the speakers' bureau, who have attended all the mectings held in the state, declare that the meetings this year have been much better than for many years, and, in fact, no such excellent meetings have ever been held: thatsthe interest §s good and the feeling among republicans s that they desire to enter at once upon an active campaign, and that they are better pre- pared than usual for an aggressive cam- palgn. Chairman Spence attributes this largely to the fact that the republicans are already looking forward to the presi- dential year and ate zealous for harmony and good work because of the approaching presidential campaign. An innovation this year has been that the candidates for the legislature and members of congress have been invited to the conference, and they have added interest to the meetings. The demand for speakers is said to be as great this year as two vears ago, and it Is ex- | pected that Governor Cummins will speak in every part of the state during the next thirty d He fs now ready to enter | upon his campaign, having had an auspl- | clous opening last night. He will speak next Tuesday evening in Boone and Wednesday afternoon in Fort Dodge, and other dates will be made for him. | The members of congress will also speak | generally this year, and also the senators. | In this district Congressman Hull s plan- ning for an active campalgn in every county, though there is only one county in which the democrats have a fighting chance. Democratic Expectations. | The expectation of the democrats thfs year ¢ that they will greatly reduce the republican majority on the state ticket, and thus get themselves in fighting sha for a vigorous campalgn next year. They do not expect to elect any of their state | ticket, but do believe they will be able to make some inroads in the legislature and have a better standing there. The fact that Govermor Cummins two years ago received over 83,000 majority was largely due to the fact that many demo- crats voted for him and the vote was un- [ system. They will urge that the present | method be discarded and that a commis- | sion be selected by each court, composed of reputable citizens, to make selection of the jurymen of all classes without regard to loeation or politics. They belleve that this would result In getting much better jurymen than under the present system, which Is a lottery.” The grand jury of the county has not as yet indicted any of the persons accused by a bar committee with tampering with the juries, but the investi- gation s going on.

(Special.)— A fierce prairle fire raged on the reserva- tion west of here all day yesterday and last night. A stretch of country from ten to fifteen miles square was burned and hun- dreds of tons of hay were consumed. The wind blew a gale from the southwest all day and at night it shifted to the north and blew almost a hurricane. The ranches on the reservation had hard work to save thelr homes. About 100 men from Boresteel went out in the evening to asslst, but labor was almost useless against the strong wind and the flames were only extinguished when the Ponca creek was reached. But for the shifting of the wind the fire would have run into the settlement. Big Sunday Crowd at Corn Palace, MITCHELL, 8.

Large Increase in Sheep Reoeipts Oompared with Last Year, MORE LARGE SHIPMENTS ARE IN SIGHT Last Winter a Disastrous One to the Range Flockmasters, but They Are Profiting by This Experience, The South Omaha sheep market 1s still attracting attention all over the west. So tar this year there is an increase In re- ceipts of 8,000 head of sheep as compared with the same date last year. Up to Satur- day night 1,040,682 head of sheep had been rded here. More big shipments are com- ing in today and preparations have been made for the handling of all that arrive J. A. Bgbert, a ranchman living near Salt Lake City, arrived last evening and said he would have a big shipment on the market today. He is bringing in sheep from in Idaho, where feed is considerably cheaper than In Utah, and for that reason a great many ranch- men run their flocks in the, valleys of Idaho instead of Utah and Nevada. Sheep deafrs in the west say that last winter was disastrous in many ways, but that this winter preparations will be made to care for the bands of sheep not ready for market and every effort will be made to cut down the loss to the lowest possible point. g South Omaha s now considered the larg- est sheep market west of the river and second only to Chicago. A great deal of the shipments formerly made to Chicago are coming to this market now, since the new barns and the covered runways have been bullt. Packers here say they can hardly secure enough sheep for the demand. The demand for feeders holds good and thou- sands of sheep have been sold to farmers in this neighborhood to be fed for a few months, when they will be marketed. Appoint Registrars Tonight. This evening the city council will appoint thirty-six members of the Board of Regls- tration. Bids for permanent sidewalks will be opened. The council wants all of the walks {n the new districts laid before cold weather sets in. Adkins and Welsh of the fiflance committee stated yesterday that they would have the city clerk instructed tonight to turn the $3,000 check of W. J. Hayes & Sons over to one of the banks here for collection. This check was given 1o the eity of South Omaha when the Hayes firm bought the overlap bonds. As the time for the acceptance of the bonds has elapsed the council proposes seeing if the check deposited as an evidence of good faith is worth the amount it calls for. The ordinance voting the bonds calls for an acceptance within twenty days, The bonds were voted on June 23, but the Hayes bank has not yet fprwarded the money. Adkins says the history of the bonds has been ap- proved and that if the Hayes people do not want the securities other eastern buyers will take them. Want More Room. The members of the First Presbyterian church are figuring on constructing addi- tional Bunday school room in the basement of the present church bullding at Twenty- fifth and J streets. The Sunday school of this church has grown so that now the meetings have to be held in the auditorium of the church. It is planned to raise suffi- clent money to elevate the church slightly and make a large, airy Sunday school 1oom in the basement. Money for this improve- ment fund is now being collected. Still Insist on Police Protection. e Last Side Improvement club, of which J. J. Breen is president, is still urg- ing its claims for & policeman on Twentieth street through Syndicate park. Mr. Breen asserted yesterday that he found enough councilmen to favor his proposition to carry it. He insists that this porsion of Twen- tieth street must be opened. The police committee of the council now has the mat- | ter under consideration, but nothing could be learned yesterday about when a report | would be made. Removing Carnival Booths, | Early yesterday morning workmen com- menced the removal of the fences about the carnival grounds. The canvas fences | were taken down in a hurry and then work } The streets, | which had been obstructed for & week, | were open to traffic by 9 o'clock. Linemen removed the leads to the electric lights in stalled for the occasion, and by night there was scarcely anything left of the carnival grounds except a few wooden booths. These will be demolished today. While no settle- ment has been made and will not be until { tonight it is expected that the earnival will clear close to,$3.000 for the building eom- mittee of the Workman temple.
