a number of different routes through the

4 FIERCE FIGHT SETTLED.

There has Just closed in Omaha a con-
test which for acrimony and the personal
i'll feeling which it e~ngendered bore close
comparison to a lively Kansas county seat
fight. The big bone of contention was
the location of a new city hall which is to
be built at a cost of not more than $780,
600. Foundations had already been laid
at the corner of Eighteenth and Farnam
streets. and under the impression that
hat was the actual site of the structure
several very big buildings were erected in
that neighborhood by foreign corporations.
Interested property owners and others,
however. soon began to boom another
site, Jefferson square. the only public
park near the business center of the city.
For weeks the Omaha papers have been
deluged with communications on the sub
iect. The World devoted two columns Of
its editorial space every day in which two
interested gentlepen kept up a lively
cross fire in favor of the respective sites.
The Bee Just bristles with arguments and
abuse in its Geree advocacy of the Farnam
street site, which is in the immediate
vicinity Of the new Bee office. The Herald
took no hand in the fray but treated both
sides impartially, while the Republican
leaned to the Jefferson square boomers.
There is no doubt that both as a matter
of law and Justice those who favored
Farnhain street we're in the right, and the
people of the city TO whom the matter
was submitted so d ecided by a vote of ten
to one. They also decreed that bonds OF
the city in the sum of $500, 900, to be-
come due in twenty years, and bear inter
est not to exceed 6 per cent per annum,
to be used for no other purpose than Tor
d~efrayinV the cost OF construction of the
proposed hall, shall be issued; that $75,-
900 in bonds be issued to pay for paving,
rcpaving and macadamizing the intersec-
tons of streets and alleys, to u not
more than twenty years; that 800, 900 in
bonds be issued for the construction and
maintenance of sewers, $50, 900 of which
is to be used on sewers in North and
$50, 600 on sewers in South Omaha; and
that 500, 900 in bonds for the renewal Of
outstanding bonds OF the city heretofore
issued for the purpose of paying for the
necessary right Of way and depot grounds
of the Union Pacific be issued.
A very big bone Of contention has been
removed from Omaha's social and politi-
cal lite.

TALLY FOR THE PRESS.
The Union Debating Club says the
Press Is Quite Influential.

In its collective, composite and individ-
ual self the Union Debating club is a
brick. Not a spurious gold brick, but n
perfectly cast, full measure brick of the
pur9st of earthly earth's virgin compo-
nents of a truly useful yet modest and
unpretentious brick. The writer has
never thoroughly understood this brick
proposition, but has noticed it in some
journals that were great on cult.
At its regular weekly session in Car
rolls court room last evening the club de-
cided by a large majority that the Press
was more influential than the pulpit.
The discussion was sanguine from start 10

cal and argumentative battle was simply
terrific. Some of the assertions iell
pretty wide of the mark, but no one was
offended. Some very witty things were
said, while some statements were really

but some pretty broad limitations were
made. The principals were: Affirmative

Star State but short while back:
The Gainesville railroad meeting did
not develop anything III the way of pro-
gress for the proposed Alexandria road,
as far as the public has been advised
The attendance of delegates was not as
large as was expected, and what they did
in meeting, with doors closed, appears to
have been kept secret. A gentle
man who was there, however, tells the
Ne,cs that the hitch in the proceeding is
caused by little rivalry between Gaines
vile and Tyler. The latter town propo,
ses to subscribe 100000 to the stock Of
the enterprise and have the construction
of the road begin there. To this Gaines.
Vile objects. She does not think Tyler
should own any more stock in the enter
prise than Gainesville, and further con
tends that Gainesville being a termina
point the work of construction should be-
gin there. This, said he, is the point tt
be settled before anything definite car
be done, and it may be settled through &
compromise by which each town viii
have its wish. The meeting adjourned
subject to the call of the chairman, Judge
j., NJ. Lindsay, of Gainesville, and thu
next meeting it is thought will be held a
Pilot Point or at some other place along
the line of the road not far distant.
