to be planted If the weather conditions in
the near future are more favorable. The
acreage in that section is likely to be ma

Chances for n New High school Build
ing Grow More Remote.
Judging from the action of the Board Of
Education at the adjourned special meeting
last night, it now begins to look as IL Coun-
Gil Bluffs will never have a new High school
building. Despite that fact that the board
had won the first round in the litigation
over the High school site and had been up
held In its action, Member Stewart moved
that the matter OF issuing bonds be post
poned for the purpose OF giving am oppor-
tunity to investigate as to whether or not
the injunctions now in force against the
board are to be dissolved and the board re-
leased from further annoyance by litigation.
The motion was carried. President Sims
being the only ONE to vote against 1t. Mem
Der Swaine was not present.
In offering the motion, Stewart said he
did not feel like issuing the bonds and then
having the money lie idle in the bank for
maybe two years while the litigation was
pending and the district paying interest on
the bonds. He also said that one reason
why he was opposed to issuing the bonds
at present was because he had been reliably
informed by a county officer that the same
party who was now trying to purchase the
bonds had guaranteed the bond company
that had furnished the bond for the plaintiffs
in the injunction suit brought against the
board by Slack Peterson.
President Sims, when seen after the meet
ing of the board, was much chagrined over
the adoption of Stewart motion. He said
the board seemed to him to be practically
playing into the hands Of their opponents
of the new High school and it was in his
opinion a sad commentary on the business
capabifty Of the seven members of the
hoard tn ait three or four persons could by
barassing litigation override its action. The
necessity for a new High school, he said,
was most urgent and the people realized
this. He believed the board should go ahead
and issue the bonds so as to be prepared
to commence the construction OF the building
as soon as the litigation was disposed OF. He
had no doubt that the courts would uphold
the action of the board, but If the matter
was delayed much longer the bonds could not
be issued and then all chance Of building a
new High school would be lost.

Injunction Against Union Phcfhc.
Acting under the directions OF the city
council City Solicitor Wadsworth Will nile
in the district court this morning a petit
tion asking for an injunction against the
Union Pacific Railway company to restrain
IT from obstructing, in any manner, the Tree
passage OF water through and along lndiah
creek at the junction of Fifth ana union
avenues.
This action has been decided upon by the
city owing to the opposition OF the Union
Pacific to the plan proposed by City Engineer
Etnyre for the settlement Of the controversy
over the Fifth avenue bridge. The Union
Pacific, since ordered by the city to raise
its bridge over the creek at this point, mas
commenced to lay an additional track along
Union avenue with a view, as the city OH
Gals suspect. of complicating matters. The
Injunction will be asked on the grounds that
the railway company has failed to comply
with the terms of the ordinance granting
1t a right Of way and franchise over and
along Union avenue and has therefore for
feited it's franchise. 1t is claimed by the
city That the Union Pacific has failed to
keep its contract as to passenger trains
from the junction of Union avenue and
Broadway to its depot in Omaha. The pa
pers will be filed this morning and Judge
smith asked to grant a temporary writ of
injunction.

The Yankton, Norfolk & Southern railway
is to be extended at once from ,Yankton, s.
D., to Norfolk, Neb., thus opening UP a new
line of road in this territory and giving
Omaha connection with the Great Northern.
This will probably benefit Omaha, but it is
a body blow to Sioux City. The road will
be finished by winter, as work is to be COM
menced at once.
]. S. Meckling Of Chicago, who built the
Dakota Southern road, now the line of the
Milwaukee from Sioux City to Yankton,

the Yankton & Norfolk railway now grad
ing. These men announce that the Yankton,
Norfolk & Southern has been financed and
that the road will be constructed without de-
lay from Yankton to Norfolk. Mr.. Meckling
said the construction company is backed by
strong Chicago capitalists and that there
is no question that the long contemplated
scheme will be carried out to the letter.
Already forty-1ve miles of the road from
Yankton on is graded and for this distance
all OF the bridge work has been done also.
All that remains to be done in this stretch
Is to lay the iron. The rest of the line re-
to be graded and bridged.
Tomorrow Messrs. Graham and Meckling,
accompanied by A. Fl. Orvis of the Chicago
law firm of French & Orvis will go to
Norfolk and from there they drive over the
line and right of way on a tour of inspec-
ton. Mr.. Meckling said that although the
season is rather late preliminary negotia-
tons have been perfected so that work on
construction will be completed before win
ter. He said further that the company will
be Independent of any other railway COM
pany and be operated and managed by its
own officers.
