Pay-as-You-Enter Cars in Omaha New System May Be Adopted by the Local Street Railway Company, “Pay-as-you-enter cars,” may be adopted In Omaha by the Omaha & Council Bluffs Btreet Rallwily company. While the company has not decided defi- nitely to adopt these cars, the directors are making preparations so they may be used If @ change is desired. “Every city which has tried these cars is now Increasing the number in use,” said W. A. Smith, general manager . of the Omaha & Council Bluffs Street Rallway company. ‘‘They seem to be the coming car. Kansas City, Des Molnes, Chicago and many other cities have adopted them and they are said to give better satisfac- ton all around.” The twenty-five new cars which have been ordered by the company, some to be bought and some to be bullt in Omaha, will be S0 constructed that they may be used as pay-as-you-enter by & slight change. JUDGES THINK NONPARTISAN LAW WILL CAUSE SCRAMBLE Fear New Judiclary Statate Wil In- vite “Too Many Candidates Into Field. cars Judges of the district court of Douglas county are inclined to think that the new law providing for & “non-partisan” judic- iary will provoke a big scramble for nomi- nation. No filing fee is now required, a petition signed by 1,0 persons being the requisite. Signatures are, however, ecasy 10 get to a petition of this sort and there are many members of the bar who would like the place or the salary or both. No oné can run for the nomination as a re- publican or democrat under the new law, though in the upshot the political com- plexion of candidates will be apt to count something. | bast 16,000 teet street Fifth street City Engineer Reynolds Designs One to Cost $53,000. SCHEME SUBMITTED TO COUNCIL Deslgned to Care for All Waste artace the W Di- Water of Aren in AN rectiol In response to a resolution passed by the mayor and council some time ago, F. H. Reynolds, city engineer of Floience, Mone day night submitted to the council a com- prehensive sewer plan for the entire city. The cost of the complete smewer fs estle mated at $3,000 and ia gubdivided into see~ tiors. The north main sewer Ia from Fiftk and Jackson streets, cast, south, east, south and through the Omaha Water company’s property, to a point on the Mis- wourt 000 feet south of the water three-course brick feet in diameter; river, company's sewer, six and estimated cost The south sewer, intake; a one-hal $20,500, beanch of the north main from Pacific street south on Fifth 1,000 feet to Calhoun strest, a two- | course brick sewer, five feet in diameter, 87,400 street trom Calhoun street south on Fifth 1060 feet to Willet street, a two- course brick sewer, four feet in diame- ter, $6,410; from Willet street south on 1400 feet to Monroe street, a ourse brick sewer, three feet in dia- meter, $,7%; from Monroe street south on Fifth street 1400 feet to Washington stroest, a two-course brick sewor, two feet in dla- . $4.45%; making the total cost of the south branch of north main sewer $44,900. The north branch of the north maln sewer Is from Fifth street west on Pacifio to Main street 30 feet, on Main street north to Davenport street feet, a two- course brick sewer, four feet in diameter, $6,410; from Davenport stret north on Main street 360 fect to Ferry street, a two-oourse brick sewer, three feet in diameter, $1,320; making cost of the north branch $7,780. This sewer is designed to care for all sewage and surface water; south branch, from Washington street north to Pacifie street, and Minneapolls & Omaha rallway west Prospect strest; north branch, all the territory within the ecity limits north of Pacific street. The council took advantage of the new law enacted by the recent legislature al- lowing small cities to pave streets by as- sessing back the cost and ordered petitions circulated to pave Maln street from the Cemetery road north to the Calhoun road. Some time ago it passed an ordinance to pave seven blocks of this street, and the action Monday stmply confirms that and extends the paving twelve blocks. tw me from to Rain and Snow Assure Crops Plenty of Moisture for Nebraska and Other States of the West. Nebraska and other western states have been well wet by snows and rain. The moisture is sald to be sufficient to assure good grain cropz and put plenty of water In the irrigation ditches, which will further aseure another year's crop for the semi- ‘arid section. The rain which began falifng in the vieln- ity of Omaha Monday night was sccom- panied by roaring thunder claps that shook windows, but no lightning. The rain was general from about Columbus east. Snow from one to three inches deep is on the ground from Columbus to Grand Island. Half an inch of rain fell in Kansas Mon- day. More is on the way for Omaha and Nebraska. LATE NIGHT HOURS DO NOT PAY At Least. That Declde is What Whe Thewm. It doesn’t pay for men to stay out late at night or go home In the morning after the cars have stopped running. At le F. 1. Epler, a street car Inspector and detective, and A. T. McRea, who lives at 427 Harney street and is a watchmaker, discovered that to be a fact after spending five hours In jail and then being severely questioned in police court. Jidge Crawford discharged both men, but not without warning them that it is not wise to be found loitering around the streets between 3 and 4 o'clock in the morn- ing and unable to satisfy a policeman as to their good character and intentions. Officer Flemming arrested them near the Kountze Memorial church, Twenty-sixth and Farnam streets, early Tuesday morn- ing, and said they dodged behind the bulld- ing when they saw him.

The corporation which will property residences | handle the | is known as the Gate City Land and Investment company. The price paid for the property is given at $40,00. The deal was made after a number of promi- praisement of the property what it would probably bring into resident lots. The plans of Mr. Matters' Gato Land and Investment company are not definttely known, as Mr. Matthers is out of the olty. but in the transaction he made it known that he would bulld a number of homes, some of them quite costly. The Holdrege residence and the sur- rounding grounds is one of fhe beauty and estimated it divided City spots in Omaha. Tt overlooks Hanscom park, which is directly east of the prop- erty. Besides the home a lodge is main- talned with extensive lawns and grounds. Mr. Matters has acquired considerable | property in Omaha within the last year or two, buying the Judge D. M. Vinsonhaler residence for a home on Thirty-ninth be- tween Farnam and Dodge streets, and also buying the Strickler row on Thirty-eighth street Organized Farmers Next in Unions This {s the Prediction of F. J. Baker, Head of the Leather Workers. The “organized farmers” Is the next thing in the line of unions F. J. Baker of Kansas City, general president of the Brotherhood of Leather Workers, says. He is in Omaha to look after the affairs of his union, which he says are prosperous. Mr. Baker thinks unions are on safer ground today than ever. “The Injunctions which have been Issued from time to time against officlals and unions have served a different purpose than was expected,” says Mr. Baker. “Take, for Instance, the Gompers-Mitchell- Morrison case. This has done to awaken the workingmen to the fact that if they wish to protect themselves against un- Just actions they must organize, and that they realize this is evident by the increase In membership in every Internatlonal union, “The most important factor In the labor movement of the future will be the organ- ized farmers. They realize where they have been taken advantage of in the past and see the remedy in organization. With the farmers organized and demanding the union label on all the goods they buy, and organized labor demanding ‘the farmer's label on all produce they buy, there Is no doubt that unfair employers wili find their &oods in small demand.” Girl Asks for Detention Home Walks in Rain from Southern Part of South Omaha to Juve- nile Court. more “May T speak to you, please, judge?"

The girl had walked in through the rain all the way from the further border of South Omaha Tuesday morning. In trouble at home, resolute to live there no longer, she had come to the juvenile court room by the only means she had Judge Estelle made out the order desired, loaned her his umbrella and giying her car fare sent the child on her way to the De- tention Home, of which she is the first vol- untary entrant on record.

Apparently all the taximeter companies in the United States have applied to the Commercial club of Omaha for Information about the city and each wishes (o be the line to come to Omaha at once. As a result Commissioner J. M. Guild has issued a general Invitation in the hope of getting the cab lines to cut rates, which is only possible with plenty of competition. One “taxi” line says its rates are 5 cents for the first mile and 10 cents for each suc- ceeding quarter of a mile If this rate is maintained it is doubtful whether the taxicabs will put the owi cars out of business In Omaha, according to the commissioner. The taxicab companies offer to sell rides on most any kind of a basis, however, and this may help.
