system OF city government might be In
PRODUCED In Omaha as a shadow OF coming
events OF serious nature,
Mr.. Williamson has given some thought
TO the commission governments OF Calves

that such system Of government in
Omaha would be hailed with acclaim once
Il was established here. Hescontends that

that such machinery may be aimplihed
without endangerihg its emciency. The
