BETTER STREET CAR SERVICE
South Side improvement Club Agitates the
Question Once More.
PARTIAL PROMISE MADE BY COMPANY
Committee is Appointed TO Take
Measures to Head on opDosition
to the Payment of the Boule-
ward Tax.

About fifteen prominent citizens and prop
erty owners of the south side attended the
meeting of the South Side Improvement
club Friday evening at Tenth and Hickory
streets. John Power presided and was re-
elected president
Il. j. Cornish spoke in favor OF a reor-
ganization of the club for active work, as
there are a number of projects under con-
eideration for the betterment of the south
side. One of them is the extension Of the
South Thirteenth street car line from its
southern extremity to South Omaha. He
had been informed that about fifty south
side property owners have organized to re-
sist the collection of taxes levied fof the
boulevard. He hoped this was not true, as
it was to the advantage OF south side peo-
pie to pay for their improvements by the
local assessment system II they should
seek TO secure the levy of general taxes for
park and boulevard purposes they would
have to pay about one fourth of the pro-
portionately much heavier expense contem-
plated for the park systems in other parts
Of the city. Incidentally Mr.. Cornish re-
ported that the Park commission has pur-
chased material for caging all the birds in
Rivervew park.
John Power started the discussion OF street
railway extension by saying that he recently
had occasion to ride over the present South
Omaha line number of times, and declared
that it was shame the way the packing
house employees have to stand UP in order
to ride on the cars at all Another line to
South Omaha is an imperative necessity, and
IL the Omaha Street Railway company will
not build it, he thought the new Council
Bluffs Manawa line might be induced
to do so. The club ought to stir the mat
ter up and see that the laboring men of
South Omaha are given an opportunity to
get cheap homes in the southern part of this
city. Incidentally he called attention to the
fact that he recently tried to find home
that was nearer the court house, but there
was not a house to be had east of Four
teenth street from the railroad tracks to the
southern city limits. He thought there is
an opportunity in that section for men of
capital to make profitable investment in
tenement property.
Mr.. Stuht said he had consulted with the
street railway officials recently concerning
the proposed extension to South Omaha. He
was informed that they had looked over the
line and will take the matter up at the
annual meeting
committee comprising Messrs. Cornish,
Buck and Stuht was appointed to head off,
