the statement of John Sharp Williams
that the negro birth rate in this coun-

and that the birth rate of white peo-
pie in the Gulf States is one Of the
largest in the world. He suggested the

BURGLAR CAUGHT IN THE ACT
"HOuse Rat" Scared Away from Place
where King of Bad Men
is Sleeping.

The burglars who have been operating so
successfully of late evidently rested on their
laurels Tuesday night, as but one burglary
was reported to the police, although a thief
was frightened away from the home Of G.
J. Best, 1922 Howard street. where he was
attempting to break open the pantry win

Mrs. j. i. Davis, whose home adJoins that
OF Mr.. Best. was awakened about a. m.
and saw the burglar trying to open the
window in the Best home Mrs. Davis arose
and lighted the gas in her house, which
was sufficient to brighten away the thief.
There is considerable doubt whether the
burglar was frightened by Mrs. Davis OF
suddenly realized he was on a fruitless
mission in robbing the home OF a news
paper man. as MIR. Best is night editor of
The Bee and was at his desk at the time.
Unless this burglar reads The Bee he will
! never know what petted child OF fortune
he really is. 1t so transpired that Mr..
Best was entertaining a cousin from the
Black Hills who has been known for many
years as one OF the worst of the bad men"
Of that historic region and he fairly dotes
on these little cheap house rats" as he
terms burglars who try to pry open pantry
windows and things. The cousin was sorely
disappointed when awakened by the police

MAHoNEY SHIELDS VAN CLEVE
Says Head of manufacturers Associa-
tion Meant No Personal sIur
of w. J. Bryan.

IT am sure that Mr. Van Cleve had no
intention TO cast any slur on Mr.. Bryan
personally" said T. j. Mahoney, speaking
Of the address delivered Tuesday In Chi
cago by James w. Van Cleve, president
Of the National Association Of Manufac-
turers. In the course Of this address Mr.
Van Cieve had classed Bryan with Moran,
Schmitg and Ruef of San Francisco as
"disturbers" and had advised that care be
taken Test a more dangerous crop Of ma
lisnants be generated in 1905"
Mr. Van Cleve intended merely TO pro-
test against the violent socialistic tenden-
cies Of these men," said Mr.. Mahoney.
"All Of them are more or less socialistic
IN their views"
Mr. Mahoney said the most important
part Of Mr.. Van Cleve's address had been
omitted from the published accounts,
namely his advocacy OF industrial or trade
schools.
He declared tho establishment of these
cbools was the only remedy for the present
ituatlon," said Mr.. Mahoney. Almost
II OF the trade unions have attempted to
restrict the supply Of labor in their several
ines. Carpenters will not allow helper
on a job where less than ten carpenters
arc employed. At one time the plasterers
had shut their union to now members and
had moreover, prohibited the attempt Of
any one to learn the trade. In New York
the plumbers have a law that prohibits
any one from learning the trade and their
books are closed TO new members. In this
way they hope TO limit the supply Of Ia
bnrNFs to such an extent as to raise the
price very high It is n mistaken principle
but they believe It sound.
Gust sec how unjust this is. Suppose a
man has three sons. The first goes through
the public schools and then decides he
wants to be a doctor. He can enter any
one of many colleges, where he will be in
structed free of charge by a large staff
OF doctors and fitted to enter into their
profession and compete with them. The
same will be true of the second SON. who
may desire to become a lawyer. But the
| third son. who desires TO enter a trade,
| finds himself handicapped because the
union will not let him enter as an appren-
| tlce, nor is there school for him to at.
tend. What becomes OF the boy? He can
! do nothing but common labor.
! I'VE should have a system OF schools, so
| that boy could go through and learn to
be plasterer, carpenter. plumber. or any
| thing else. as we'll as doctor or lawyer"

present the financial conditions Of the
county and city as applied to his ONCE and
suggest Improvements for the convenience
of taxpayers and in the interests OF

Mr.. Fink believes the ONCE Of county and
city treasurer should be consolidated In
fact as well as in fancy and to the latter
end he will suggest Thursday afternoon
that one tax list be used instead Of two.
as at present.
my idea is to have system Of tax coll
lection that will enable any taxpayer in
Douglas county TO call at the treasurer's

sum, II he desires, all the taxes he owes
that year" Mr.. Fink said at present the
city, county and state taxes become due
OF Delinquent on certain dates, requiring
taxpayers to make frequent trips to the
treasursrs office and entaillng much more
elaborate system of bookkeeping than
would be the case with one tax list and
one date on which all taxes would become
due.
THE one tax list system would mean
that a better check could be kept on the
ONCE. At present the county part of the
treasurer's office is nominally supervised by
the county clerk, while the city portion is
checked by the city comptroller.

special taxes not paid in. II is known that
taxpayers have ten years in which to pay
these special improvements. Many have
brought these taxes into litigation on tech

from year to year. Tax buyers shy at this
class Of property. We should have a stat
ute Of Limitation I'm which property owners
can make protests against these special
taxes. l would say a year is long enough
We should have provisions that would en-
able the city to sell property for special
taxes the same as is now done for regular
taxes.
incidentally I shall suggest the plan of
general improvement now in vogue in some
cities, that of starting a system of paving
at the center Of the city and working out
to tho limits, the improvement to be paid
for by special taxation. But IL any citi-
zens In any district want improvements be-

PLEA TO THE INTERSTATE COMMISSION
Secretary Branch of wsstern Fruit
JObbers VIII Have Interesting
Report to Make at KAN

Formal request on the Interstate Com
merce commission TO prevent the express
companies buying and selling fruit and
vegetables and soliciting and receiving con-
signments OF fruit and vegetables, probably
yyill be made by the Western Fruit Jobbers'
association, which will hold it's annual
meeting In kansas city January ?, 3 and 4.
Secretary Il. b. Branch Of Omaha has
spent large part OF the fall collecting in
formation concerning the operations Of the
express companies in the fruit business and
has a voluminous and decidedly interesting
report to read at the meeting. The associa-
zion covers twenty states west of the Mis-
sissippi river.
The fruit jobbers hold that the express
companies were organized for transporta-
ton purposes and have no right to engage
In a mercantile business. That they are
daily receiving consignments and even buy
ing fruit outright, the association will at
tempt to show to the satisfaction OF the
commission.
Mr.. Branch has the statements OF fruit
growers and fruit growers associations in
many parts OF the country to the effect
that they have consigned to express COM
pany agents. who have sold the fruit and
returned the money for it. He also has
conclusive evidence in cases where express
cof1Tany agents have PAID cash Tor the
fruit on receiving It. one instance is that
of an Arkansas fruit growers association

OMAHA BILLS ARE POPULAR
Measures for Greater City and Terminal
Taxation Strong Out in State.
MIKE LEE GETS PROMS- OF SUPPORT
Finds Sentiment for Caucus of Re
pubIicans Before Session Com
venes to Map out Definite
Course OF Action.

81 have returned from a visit out in the
state with other members Of the incoming
legislature" said Representative Mike Leo
Il met many of my old colleagues ana
many of the now members
incidentally took occasion TO boom Inc
movement for Greater Omaha and termlhaI
taxation and was delighted to meet such
hearty responses. I find that people out IN
the state are getting their eyes open on
these two important matters. They are
awakening to the fact that Greater Omaha
means Greater Nebraska and that terminal
taxation means a fairer distribution OF the
public burdens. the payment Of taxes by
the heaviest property owners and the con-
version of thousands of dollars more into
the treasury, not only Of Omaha, but OF
Lincoln, of Fremont, of Grand Island OF
Kearney Of Columbus, of every town in the
state where railroads have terminals that
can be taxed for local purposes.
The railroads, If they beat this bill this
time will have to resort to something be-
sides their empty sophstry that terminal
tax will divert money from school districts
out IN the state; their former victims have
discovered the utter falsity Of this sort Of
talk.
Sentiment for Caucus.
81 found a strong sentiment for a CAUCUS
| of republican members before the legisia-
| ture convened. The idea Is to map out
/ course of action as a redemption of party
/ platform pledges; to have tho necessary
Views prepared in caucus by committee
of republicans and then have them sub
mitted to the caucus and by 1t adopted, and
/ in that way presented to the Legislature.
with such a draft Of bills the usual multi
tude of fake measures would be OBJ
structed. It is the lobbyists scheme to
flood the legislature with an overflow of
bills so as to confuse new members about
what measures to support. II we can pre-
vent this we shall have done a great deal. -
