HAND OF JUSTICE is HEAVY
Takes Little Girl from
Her Mamma.

II was a pitiful scene that was enacted
I'm the Juvenile court Monday morning
when Emmett Miller was brought up
charged with writing a threatening letter
'mmet Is boy OF 16 years, good-looking
IeJdy and not at all a bad boy, according to
the evidence. Circumstances have not
been kind to him. though. The juvenile
officers have been obliged to interfere with
his brothers and sisters before this and
one of them, Louise, has been placed in
the home OF Mrs. Dora Alters.
Emmett wrote the threatening letter to
Mrs Alters. He admitted that he wrote
it. The letter was shown in evidence. 1t
was not vicious letter. 1t was just a
plain statement of the facts as Emmett
saw them.
He told Mrs. Ahlers that his mother was
sick in bed and that all night she cried
for her child, who had been taken away
from her ''She refuses to do anything
but mourn for little Louise" said the let
ter pathetieally. Then, boylike. the letter
stated that the easiest way to avoid trou-
BILE would be TO return, his sister to her
ereaved mother In general tone 1t was
not considered bad letter. not any worse
than any brother would write II his sister
had been taken from him by others.
The law had taken the little girl from a
home which, 20 the law. looked bad, 1t
had placed her in good environment. But
Il is hard to view the ultimate good results
of the action from the home whence the
little one has been taken almost as effec-
tually as though the hand Of death had
reached in and carried the child away.
Emmet tearfuly listened to the words of
the Judge, There were other eyee among
the workers gathered around the table
that were wet. The little girl will remain
whore she is for the present and her
brother lpranisedsIiot to- make any more
threats. The juvenile workers viii try to
extend their good works to the boy.

MAYOR VETOES Gas TANKS
Dshlmap Refuses His o. K. to Ordinance
Of Councilman BruoksE
OPPOSES PLANTS IN RESIDENCE PLACES
says ne Decided the Matter I'm Favor
of Property Owners Of south
side, BeIieyiuR they
Are Right

Mayor Dahlman Monuay morning vetoed
the Brucker gas tank ordinance, which
was an ordinance to give the Omaha Gas
company the right TO add third gas tank
holder 20 it's present plant at Twentieth
and Center streets, The mayors action,
should It be sustained by the council Tues
day evening, will mark another exciting
climax in the gas tank fight
In explanation Of his veto the mayor
said:
Il have decided this matter in favor Of
the property owners on the south side, be-
cause believe they are in the right and
that their protests outweigh the demands
Of the gas company. With the consolida-
ton OF the two Omahas not far distant, I
believe It would be unwise to build up a
gas plant In a section which would be
about the center OF the consolidated ter
ritory.
81 believe It will be a matter Of only a
few years, anyway. before the gas com
pany will have to move away from the
present location and It might as well begin
TO move out now before the company is
more entrenched. This talk about; being
unable to find a suitable location for the
proposed third tank. except at Twentieth
and Center streets, is not sound. Did not
the company propose to locate the tank
up In the Sixth ward about year and a
half ago? They can't tell me that in city
with twenty-four square miles of area the
gas company is unable to get outside OF a
residence district.
Opposes In Residence Places.
81 am opposed to gas plants being In
residence sections. While 1 have been con-
WINGED by evidence brought to me that the
gas tanks are not dangerous from explo-
sions within, yet / know that the posi-
bilities of disaster should one Of them
spring Q large leak are not imaginary"
Frank T. Hamilton, president of the
Omaha Gas company. had conference
with the mayor Monday morning.
The mayor will send the vetoed ordinance
to the council Tuesday evening with com
munieation setting forth his reasons for moi
signing the ordinance In that communica.
ton the mayor will touch on the rights oil
citizens-the property owners-as against
those Of the gas company, and he will
urge the council to again consider ways
and means for securing 81 gas
1t will take one more vote in the council
to override the mayors veto than It re-
quired to pass the ordinance. Councilmer
Bridges, Zimman, Funkhouser, Elsassei
and Hansen were against the Brucker ordi
nance and If they are together Tuesday
evening the mayors veto will be sustained
In the event of the Brueker ordinance be
ing knocked out Tuesday evening Council
man Bridges will bring up his ordinance
which was introduced last Tuesday evening
and which was duplicate OF one recent!
defeated. This ordinance prohibits the ga
company from locating any more gas tank
except on a strip along the, river.

buyer of cattle and sheep. declared
