AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Another Place Where City Has Lost Money
Will Be Mended.
FEES IN ADVANCE ON MINOR APPEALS
CuIprits Fined I'm Police Court Must
settle for Costs Before They
Can Go to District Court
for Review.

An investigation Of the records Of the
police court show that during the last
three years about 500 cases have been APP
pealed from the police court to the dis
trict court. With few exceptions these
have never been followed up and the cases
merely burden the docket and the files of
the clerk of the court. In ordinary in
stances the fees in an appealed case amount
to about $40. Until a day or two ago no
advance fees were exacted from defendants
when directing that an appeal be taken.
In many OF the cases now on file and APP
pealed to the district court both the de-
PENDANT and the complaining witnesses have
left the city and it is possible that the city
may be held responsible by the county for
the fees which should have been paid at
the time the transcripts were filed.
In the past when an appeal was taken
the defendant merely signed a bond and
the police Judge furnished a transcript.
No fee has been exacted here for the maxi
ing out of a transcript and by this method
OF doing business the city has lost large
OF money. All fees of this kind should
be paid into the city treasury. Attorneys
assert that the defendant is supposed to
pay all fees of an appeal in advance, In
GLIDING the transcript, the clerk and the
sheriff's fees. When these fees are paid the
clerk of the court notifies the police judge
and the papers in the case are sent to the
courthouse for use when the case is called.
Hereafter all those who desire to APP
peal criminal cases from the police court
to the district court will be compelled to
pay for the transcript in advance and the
other fees before the document can be

Amusenaents
At Krug Park.


The rsgtime concert by Huster's band
at Krug park last night proved one Of the
best drawing cards this resort has pre-
scented. With a dozen extra cars in service
on the Benson and Walnut Hill lines, people
stood on the running boards during the

hours. Judging from the enthusiastic man
ner in which the program was received,

be OVERRIDING it for the people. The band
played the various numbers with such
spirit that at times nearly the whole au-
dience was beating time while a large num-
Der Of cake walkers were developed. Hus-
ter very graciously responded to encores
with four extras. The trapeze perform
ance by Emile Girdelier, the Passion Play
and other features of the regular program
were given as usual. On Sunday next the

from his trip he said that the road lie in
very bad condition and almost impossible
for teams with loads. Something will
have TO be done said Mayor Koutsky,
Ito open this road to the river. so that
garbage may be dumped into the river.
/ shall call the attention OF the council
to the matter at the earliest possible mo-
ment, and will request that immediate
steps be taken to arrange for a road so
that the hauling OF garbage may not be in
interfered with. Warm weather Is coming
on and It will be necessary to have gar
bage removed daily, so that a suitable road
is an absolute necessity"
While no estimates have been made by
the engineer, 1t is thought that the ex-
penditure of about 5000 will put the road
in a passsble condition.

John Dixon Fined.
In police court yesterday John Dixon,
Twenty third and Harrison streets, was
fined SIS for violating the health laws.
Dixon had been placed in quarantine on
account OF having contracted smallpox. He
broke the rules by leaving the house where
he was confined and mingling with people
on the streets and In resorts. As a result
he was arrested. After hearing the testi-
mony OF the health officials and Dixon
making no denial, the fine mentioned was
imposed. The police and health officials
propose to see to it that Dixon Is not per-
miteed to get out again until he is re-
leased from quarantine.

Oscar Harding of Albright is not dead,
as reported, but is alive and walking around
and really in better health than he has
been for some time. Two or three weeks
ago the report reached the city off,
cials that Harding had been injured by a
handcar and that he was seriously Ill. As
his wife is blind, the city charity depart
ment supplied the family with food for a
couple Of weeks. A couple of days ago
word was sent TO the city hall that Hard
ing was dead. Later on a man. who claimed
to be a ~neighbor, called at the city hall
with a petition asking for subscriptions to
assist in burying Harding. This petition
was circulated all over the business por-
ton Of the city and as Harding has lived
here a long time 1t is supposed that quite
q sum of money was collected. No one
seems to know who the man was who cir
culated the petition and It is thought that
he has eloped with his collection. When
Mayor Koutsky heard of the affair he
turned the matter over to the police for in
vestigation and the first thing learned yes
terday was that Harding is now able to get
out Of the house and is getting along nicely.
A description of the man who circulated the
petition has been given the police.

Following are the results of the election held last Tuesday in this county, with the precincts of Cibola, Harrisburg and Ehren- burg yet to hear from. They will not, however, make any change in the general result except pos sibly in favor of the republicans
 Wilson's majority, 89.
 Ives majority, 146.

 The vote for supervisors was: Kinds, 30S; Marvin, 412; Smith, 325; Clark, 286.
 The socialist vote in the cOun- ty was very small, and it's con is, therefore, hardly necessary, as it cannot affect the final result.

WE HAVE BEEN WHIPPED.

The election is over for anOth- CT two years and the day passed off quietly. Each party made 8 good fight and the democrats took the republicans into camp in wholesome and good -natured manner. They have won, but their majorities have been re duced, which the republicans are pleased to record. The defeated candidates have taken their med icine without squirming and with no regrets for anything that might have been done previous to the fall of ballots. The peO- pie have spoken and their word is law, and the political enemies of yesterday are the business and social friends of today. Such is the simplicity as we'll as the grandeur of American citizen ship. Now for business and the advancement of the interests of the county.

The best characterization ever made of the democratic party is that by which it is usually de picted in the press, as a jackass, but the next best may be attrib- uted to a Minneapolis paper which refers to the democratic party as, "The political grave robber' and illustrates It's mean ing by a cartoon showing the jackass paving up dead issues from the political grave yard.

THE DIVORCE RECORD.

There are 80, ,000 more divorced women in the United States than divorced men. Is this an indi- cation of mans attractiveness or his frailty?-LoS Angeles Her ald.
 It is neither an indication of mans attractiveness nor his frailty. Whether fattering to women's vanity or not, they are in majority of cases what men make them. Women live for love, and through this best at tribute of their nature they are often debased for the gratiica- tion of mans utter SelfshneSs. When society demands the same standard of morality for men as is now exacted from women the ''frailty' of the stronger sex will be most conspicuous.

The board of supervisors of Yuma contracted with Phoenix parties for the printing of the ballots of the county and other election supplies instead of hay ing the work done at home in or der to save a few dollars, with the result that the paper fur nished was cheap and fimsy. The ballots were so thin that even when they were folded as the law requires the cross oppo- site the names of the candidates voted for could be seen through the folds. Neither were the names of the candidates printed on the tally lists as they should have been. Altogether it was a cheap john job, refecting neither credit upon the parties who fur nished it nor upon the supervis- orS who contracted for it.

Let us be thankful that the election is over. The papers of the territory can now devote their energies until two years shall have rolled away to the de- velopment of the territory's re- sources. It must be a rehef to most of them, badly afflicted with partisan blindness as they are, to be freed from what they deemed was a necessity to up hold their party at any cost; and to save the country from in numerable disasters, the result too ofen being the infiction of personal wounds which time can never heal. The fierce political contest Arizona has just expert enced naturally suggests the thought that if the blindly par tisan papers were as jealous in presenting the natural advan- tages and resources of the sec tions in which they are pub lished as they are in furthering the political interests of some office seekers, Arizona would soon double in population and wealth. Strange as it may ap- pear to the uninitiated, newspa- per men are even human, and too often so frail that they can see but dimly into the future. It is likewise true that those who climb to power upon the frailties of newspaper men too often for get the steps which led them to the plnacle of political fortune. This is also human, yet hardly ever believed or understood, and then not long remembered. It Is perhaps best so. Who knows?

THE NEW SHELTER.

A shelter for Yuma is no longer doubt. A company has
 been organized mainly with Los Angeles parties with a capital of S1O0,O0O, and the corporate title is the Arizona Smelling and Re duction Company. MT. Frank $. Rust, the secretary, spent last Friday and Saturday in Yuma, and informed the Sentinel that a site little west of the Quarter masters reservation had been selected, and that the work of construction would be begun i'm mediately. While here he closed a contract for the transportation of ores up and down the river, and said that the company was negotiating for other means of transportation so as to iusure steady supply of ores by the time the shelter was ready for operation. Before his departure for Los Angeles last Sunday morning he appointed J. E. Ludy as local agent for Yuma.
 The company will first erect one 50-ton gold and copper fur mace and one 4O- ton lead furnace, and additions to the smelter plant will be made as demands require.
 The company desires to hear from mine owners within reach of the shelter in order to ascer- tain the character and quantity of ores which can be shipped to them, and miners should at once place themselves in communica- tion with the secretary, MT. Rust.
 It is almost impossible to form an estimate of the benefits that will accrue to- Yuma by the erec- tiOn of this shelter. Never be- | fore in the history of Arizona has the mining interests been | greater and the number of capi- talists in search of good proper ties larger, and this section of the territory will get it's share of the capital seeking investment if | the people bestir themselves.
 With the completion of the new shelter now assured an i'm petus will be given to the development of the mineral | wealth in this vicinity that | will surpass even the hopes of the most enthusiastic. There is no doubt that large amount of ore can be secured in districts contiguous to the Colorado river and which for years has been shipped to San Francisco. A | large percentage of the ore avail able for the shelter is of lead | base, and it is said that more than enough carbonates can be secured for the necessary fux. The shelter proposition will be much aided by the low cost of water transportation.
 In view of the bright prospects for Yuma it cannot be too strong ly urged upon mine owners the of putting themselves in communication with the new company, so that it may be known approximately what amount of ores and their charac-

Last Sundays Los Angeles Times contained an article on General Diaz, president of the republic of Mexico, by the editor, General Harrison Gray Otis, who recently paid a visit to that country. He quotes freely from the historical record of the rise to power of President Diaz, with pleasing comments upon his mil
 itary career, but he fails to grasp the deeper philosophy of the man and his political character. The article is similar to scores of others written by tourists to Mex ico-light and frothy, pleasing to read but leaving no impression upon the mind. General Otis does not possess the creative fac ulty, neither is he a critic, not having that analytical mind which unerringly distinguishes the difference between cause and effect. His reportorial ability is good and his newspaper judg- ment far above the average, but in literature, in criticism and in the artistic use of the English language he displays weakness in marked contrast with his abil- ity as a newspaper manager.
