AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Four Hundred Celebrate City’'s Twen- ty-Third Anniversary, SPIRIT OF , CITIZENS LAUDED Republie Steal erats and Py Judges March on Demo- Through List of @ Clerks of Election. Four hundreda guests, a groaning tahle, musie, speaking, sedate amusement and | £ood cheer marked the celebration of South Opaha's twenty-third birthday last night Looked upon from every possible angle, the affalr was a great success and memor- able. The response of the citizens was h ty to the suggestion and with no ap: parent effort the.hall was filled comfort ably with those who found special pleasure in coming, Nothing was perfunctory nor lacking in appropriate spontaneity. The after-dinner program was lengthy, but well recelved, for the spoakers, though many, made brief and creditable addresses. The whole range of South Omaha history was touched by the various toplcs assigned by J. M. Tanner, toastmaster. Miss Georg- ( ina Davis gave a vocal selection for the opening, singing in a clear, pure soprano, | “Spring s Coming.” Miss Gladys Van | Sant accompanted her | Dr. R. L. Wheeler, a favorite after-dinner speaker in South Omaha spoke on the ap- proaching era, which should mark the clty's prime. The best point was his tribute to | F. J. Morlarty, deceased. Bruce McCulloch, | always a gifted son of humor, spoke on the | tople, “The Press.” David Anderson, one of the ploneers, read a brief eulogy on the ploneers, living and dead. He mentioned many of the old residents by name and | |his personal remembrances found a re- | sponsive chord. | Mrs. H. C. Richmond sang the folk song, “Where Is Now the Merry Party.” and fol- | lowed it by “Auld Lang Syne.” The aud- | fence took up the chorus. Miss Flossic Tanner accompanied her. | Tribute to Industry, | Charles F. Manderson, gave a briet his- | tory of the formation of the Union Stock | |yards and the begining of South Omaha. Miss Bertha Shelaney sang two selections | with the success that always follows her appearance. “The Bobolink” and “Funny, But True,” were the topics selected. | John O'Hern, superintendent of Ar-| /mour & Company’s packing plant, gave a | briet outline of the scope of the packing | industry and said the best idea came from the pay rolls for labor and supplies, which |amfounted to $7,00,000 in South Omaha an- nually. | Herbert James Tanner rendered two bari- | tone selections, “If 1 Were King of Every- | hing,” and “My Sweetheart.”” His volce though young showed range and quality. | Dr. W. J. McCrann spoke on the toplie ot the public schools, declgring that South Omaha had a record to be proud of and had shown results unsurpassed by any city of the same age. Judge A. L. Sutton spoke on “Fraternal- ism,” which he declared was a principle on a parity with religion. E. T. Farnsworth toasted “The Ladles,” and the evening closed fittingly with a £ong written for the occasion, “South Omaha, South Omaha,” sung to the famil- far alr, “Maryland.” The members of the Commercial club were elated with the fine response of the people and the people were more than pleased with the entertainment. Strategy of Republicans Wins: The inside of the clever move of the South Omaha republicans to get the demo- crats of the city council to meet Thursday morning to accomplish the delayed busi- ness which resulted from the fallure to | meet last Monday evening was not so in- | tricate an affalr of politics as may have | been thought. The democrats were willing | enough to meet, because they belleved that | no move of the republicans could be car- | | rled through touching the judges and clerks | lot election, on which point the couneil | | split ladt Monday. Therefore, when they were approached by a democratic friend and urged to meet to further the business | of making a temporary connection with the | Mud creek sewer at Monroe street, they all readily signed the call and met with the council. Once there, there was no thought of the trap on their part until the list of judges and clerks was read. The fact that the mayor had a right under the rules and ordinances to cast the deciding vote in case of a tle did not dawn upon them until they had voted on the proposi- tion and it was done. The council attended to the other items of business in regular form before the mat- ter of the judges and clerks of election came up. They passed a resolution per- mitting the Union Stock Yards company to make the temporary connectior with the | sewer. A number of bond ordinances were | passea for the last issue of paving bonde. These bonds will be advertised for sale at once. Bids for the Twenty-seventh street sani- tary sewer were recelved and G. E. Beck was awarded the contract. The reports of appointive officers were read and a num- ber of partial estimates for public work were allowed. A communication was re- celved from the park board requesting the | counell to pass an ordinance issuing $15,000 | bonds for park improvements. List of Lucky Onmes.
