Beebs | THE BEE | CQUNCIL ' STIFLES INDUSTRY |Brick Yards Cannot Locate | Trackage if Ordinance Passes | CITIZENS AFRAID OF SMOKE on | Would Rather Pay Seversl Dollars | Per Thowsand (o Get Brick from Ka Than Have Kiln Nutsance Here. The brick making Industry in Omaha will {be limithd and no more brick vards will | be allowed within the eity limits provid- Ing the council concurs in the report of the committee of the whole and passes | an ordinance prohibiting extending this Industry. The committee yesterday after- noon recommended the ordinunce for pass- age, Councfiman Bridges voicing the only objection. J. Herman Krittenbrink, a South Omaha manufacturer of brick, applied for a permit to establish a yard at Thirty-sixth and | Wright streets, Omaha, but he was met with the objections of about X0 property owners, who sent a petition to the council Drotesting, against the proposed yard, which, they declared, would be a nulsance. This protest was recelved, but instead of refusing a permit to establish a brick- vard at Thirty-sixth and Wright streets or the immediate vicinity, the council de- cided to prohibit them anywhere in the city. There Is no ex-post facto provision in the ordin and those kilng now estabiished will be allowed to operate. Councilman Bridges exerted himself tre- mendously in behalf of the brick manufac- turer and made a strenuous speech in the council chamber, but all for naught. » ness Sense Aromsed. *“Hero we are trying to build up a greater Omaha, but whenever anyone comes along and attempts to spend his money in es- tablishing a new enterprise which would give employment to seores and scores of men, we shut the door of the city in his face and tell him (o clear out,” sald the councllman. “How in the name of Caesar are we going to build up a city with tac- ties of this sort? Brick is shipped to Omaha every day from Kansas and Mis sourl. If we had more kilns In this city %0 that the supply could meet the demand, we would not need to send our money out of the city and it would stay in Omaha and go into the pockets of Omaha work- men. " Citizens, some of whom lived & mile from the proposed brick vard, objected on ac- count of the smoke which would lssue from | the plant, but Mr. Bridges declared the #moke would not be half as d erous as the gas tank which the council refused to move. “And gas tanks blow up every little while and kill scores of people, but no one ever heard of a brick kin blowing up,” sald the councilman. $145,000 for Engine ouses. The commiitee of the whole also recom- mended for passage the ordinance submit- ting to & vote of the people the proposition of issuing bonds In the sum of $145,0°0 to buy stes and erect fire ecngine houses. This came up in the council last week, but | Councilman Zimman succeeded in getting it referred to the committce of the whole for further Investigation. This he did In the hope that the council would agree to & saving of $15,000 and erect house No. 2 on the land adjacent to the city jall and | owned by the city. Mr. Z'mman is out of | the city and Mr. Bridges attempted to | fight the battle alone yeste.day, but lost. The committee failed to coincide with the view of Mr. Bridges, backed by plans, that a fire eng'ne house could be erccted on the vacant city property,k adjacent to the jail and declded to buy a new site. Mr. Bridges then endoavored to have the bonds read: “For the purchase of sites and the erection and equipment of fire engine houses,” in- stead of just for sites and the houses. If the word “cquipment” was included any balance could be used in buying apparatus, otherwise it must go Into the sinking fund, where it cannot be used. But the councli squeiched him again. The third proposition of the councilman | was to issue two sets of bonds, one for purchase of sites and erection of houses and another for equipment, the two lssues to equal a total of $150,000, This, (00, met with defeat . The Iimit that can be voted is $150,000, the council will ask for but $145,000. The fire chief told the councilmen’ that the other $5,000 could be used to advantage and that it is needed, but the council refused to ask for the full amount, IOWA MAN NOT GUILTY ut Diseharged som, Before Whom He fs Ha as & Fugitive, [ R.
