Further investigation of the Indian reser- vation land fraud cases has been post- poned until Tuesday and a host of wit- nesses has been summoned to appear at that time before the federal grand jury The investigations will go back about three vears and involve the validity of deeds given by Indians of the Omaha tribe to land speculators for valuable lands for wholly inadequate considerations. These deeds and contracts were procured from many of the Indians prior to the expira- tion of the twenty-flve years' trusteeship of the United States In July last to become effective when the Indians were grantea | thelr patents. These patents have been the most valuable lands of the Omaha In- dian reservation. The Indlans have just awakened to the fact that they were swindled and defrauded in giving these deeds, which they supposed were mere leases It is alleged that some former Indian agents are implicated in the frauds, which | could not have been perpetrated but with | their connivance and knowledge. Several expert special agents of the land depart- ment have been investigating the matter, | and two or three of them are here to pre- | sent the cases to the grand jury | The work of the grand jury Friday was devoted largely to minor postoffice cases and one or twe lquor cases ‘Otrlpuuu- Saves you 25 to 40 Per Cent on Anything on Fine Jewelry.

COUNCILMANIC LOVE FEAST President Burmester of the City Coun- cil Provides the Spread. HEART TO HEART TALKS MADE All Agree that City Charter Should Be Revised at Coming Seasion of the Legisintare Next Winter. President Burmester of the city councll gave a dinner to the mayor and councilmen Thursday evening at Walters' cafe. This was done In response to a resolution of the city council, passed in a spirit of josh some time ago. Mayor Dahiman vetoed the resolution, but President Burmester voted with the other members to pass the resolution over the veto; and last evening he made good in handsome fashion. Mayor Dahlman, as tho first speaker, called on by Toastmaster John J. Ryder, struck the keynote of the gathering when he said: “Omaha s now experiencing its era of nonpartisanship in city affairs.” He complimented the members of the council on the businesslike way in which they have been discharging their duties and paid high compliment to the host of the occasion for his fair and gentlemanly conduct In a aiffi- cult position. “While the council has handed me Sev- eral vetoes of vetoes,” said the mayor, “I feel its every action has been wlung the lines that seemed to the members best for the good of “the city. So far as I am | concerned, there is no sore spot; on the | | contrary, 1 fesl we can flatter ourselves that there is very little ground for com- plaint about the way the business of the | ety has been done. We are handicapped, of course, by the unwise, inelastic provi- sions of our city charter, but the citizens whose good opinion we want understand | that fact pretty thoroughly by this time. | It Is not flattery, but a statement of fact, to say to you that the present council is open to less criticism than any other coun- cil we have had in twenty years, the publie business is conscientlously attended to, and despite & kick now and again, the city is cleaner and more prosperous than at | any other time in its history." Al Councilmen Talk. Following the mayor's talk, the to master called on every member of the council In turn, Every one of them gave the other eleven heart-to-heart talk. They all told their real names, as the saying I8, admitting that at that time they had mi case that any of them could recall had there been & hint of anything but a strict consideration for the city's interests in the | actions taken. { Al the counclimen agreed that the ity | charter should be revised at the coming session Of (he legislature, carefully and with & view to the Increasing needs of a growing city. They also tossed a unani- mous bouquet to President Burmester for | his unwavering fairness and the exercise of | | patience and good common sense. It was also agreed that a similar function shall hereafter be a fixed event, to be given by | the presiding officer, whoever he may be Toastmaster Ryder reinarked, toward the | not yet at Each counciiman said he thought the toast- | er had achieved his desire, and they severally accepted the duty of providing a similar feast whenever called upon. Councliman Brucker was very modest in | his declaration, but he brought & big round | | of applause when he sald, “If it should be | me I will endeavorto outdo what Burme has done, and that's saying more, mayl than a quiet man should say."

Johnson Tells How Illinois Builds Roads Highway Engineer Here for Conven- tion Discusses Methods—Praise for Dougas County Roads. | “From what ] saw in The Bee while com- ing to Omaha on the trafn, I judge your clty engineer and Commercial club have taken the right method to get up a suc- cessful good roads meeting,’ sald A. N. Johnson, state engineer of Illinols, in charge of highways. He arrived in Omaha at 126 and was the guest of City En- gineer Cralg at the Commercial club. Discussing the system adopted In Illi- nots, and which will probably furnish the basis for & law to be offered in the next session of the Nebraska legislature, Mr Johnson sald: “We have a merely advisory organization in Illinols, the engineer being the ouly patd official on the highway commission. We haven't nearly enough men or equipment to meet the demands made on us for help in getting proposed improved roads started; vet fair progress s being made. In cer- tain parts of the state a very good start has been made, and sentiment in favor of better, or the best, roads is steadily grow- 1ng. “Qur commission has in charge several road bullding outfits, the property of the state, which we send out to different places calling for them as rapldly as pos- sible. We also have a traction hauling out- fit, but the present equipment must be very largely increased before we can meet the demand. There are no paved roads in Illi- nofs, such as I understand you have here in Douglas county to some extent.” While in the employ of the United States | government, Mr. Johnson bullt a sample |plece of good romd at Aubuin, Neb.

The O'Neill Insurance company of South Omaha is showing a disposition to back out of its agreement to insure the Omaha city hall and its furnishings. The city of- ficlals refuse to let go of the certified check for $200 that accompanied the O'Neill bid. If the company refuses to accept the contract as awarded to It by the councll, the city will declare the check forfeited. At the time bids were asked for insuring | the city hall there were about a dozen bid- ders. All of the Omaha insurance firms 12 Best Names stuck very close to an apparently agreed | ins: rate. The O'Nelll company sent in an offer to place the $0,000 risk for three vears at the lump sum of $1,20. Some hesitancy was shown by the councll committee to ac- cept the bid, the feeling being that some local firm should get the plum.
