o -~ ,L_, THE BEE: MAYOR BRYAN'S PLAN BLOCKED City Commissioneds of Lincoln Re- fuse to Adopt Program in Detail. TWO0 NEW BANKS CHARTERED (From a Staft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, July 21.-—(Special.)—Com- missioners Dayton, Schroeder and Hens« ley have refused to vote for Mayor Bryan's program and & halt has been mado In the proceedings whereby he sought city betterment. By combining against Mayor Bryan and Commissioner Wright the three old mem- bers of the commission have been able to block the proposed plans of the mayor. Mr. Bryan made his campalsn on a platform for extension of parks. The majority of the commission was| willing that that part of the program should go through and gave the mayor supervision of parks, taking it from one of the other departments. (When the mayor desired to take over other work which would enable him to carry out his ideas and put upon the other commissioners work he did not want, and which they did not want, either, the hitch came. Countles Desire Space. Applications for apace in the hall de- voted to county exhibits are beginning to pour in on the secretary of the state fair and indications point to a heavy display along these lines. The better bables exhibit also promises to show up well and applications and entries for this department are coming in.
