the Local Business Men 20
Action.

Put Omaha on the map I'm the way OF
river navigation" said Richard c. Patter-
son OF Kansas City at the Paxton.
Mr.. Patterson, who was a former Omaha
member OF the bar, is now proprietor OF
the Centropolis hotel at Kansas City and
camo here on some private business. Mr..
Patterson was not ayerse to doing a little
boosting for Kansas City, which, he
ssid, is going ahead with leaps and
bounds. Over 1000 new buildings are in
course Of erection there, he said, and prop
erty values, especially on the river front,
nave doubled in value, because of the
movement towards bringing about more
efficient navigation methods between Kan
sas City and New Orleans.
kansas city, said Mr.. Patterson, has
raised over 800, 900 for river navigation and
will ultimately make It a million dollars.
With this fund 1t will put boats on the
Mississippi between Kansas City and New
Orleans and bring about river navigation,
which is just now occupying considerable
attention throughout the middle west. And
It is the proper thing to do.
"omaha's progressive business men
should get together and raise a fund so
that a line Of steamers could be put on
between here and the gulf. Such a step
would do more for Omaha than anything.
as will be the result to Kansas City"

Capitalists Thought to Be Planning
Redemption of Million Acres
of Wyoming Land.

Contra Wyoming is looking for re-

and plans are already under way for sew

man, state representative OF Wyoming and
superintendent for Asmus Boysen in the
building Of the giant dam and power plant
at the entrance TO the Big Horn gorge.
10y Morton and other eastern CAPT
talists were at Lsnder last week and the
people in that section think these men
are about to begin the construction Of a
big irrigation scheme which will redeem
about 100000 acres OF waste land. They
have had control Of this land for some
years and the time is coming when they
must make good by building bitches or
moving, and as It is too valuable a prop
osition to throw aside, something will be
done.
The Burlington is now building through
the Big Horn gorge and has a large num-
Der OF outfits at work. Some Of this
work is Of the heaviest kin and will cost
a large amount OF money. There is one
camp in the gorge where the wallis rise

Governor Brooks says 1t was one of the
most delightful business and pleasure trips
he had ever made. All along the route a
bond Of friendship was cemented between
the north and south. There was little Of
politics during the trip, he said.
During the entire voyage down the river
the twenty-six governors held frequent con-
ferences, meeting every day at least once,
and discussing a great many matters which
will undoubtedly prove of great benefit and
value to them" said the governor. while
governors of states do not make the laws,
they play an important part in moulding
public opinion, and for this reason at least

Charge Filed by Car Motorman, Who
Objects to B. F. Stewards
Language.

Ever just miss a car when you were late
on your way home and then have the last
one, after a lonesome wait, later sweep
by as the Limited passes a tramp?
II so, then one can appreciate the feeling
which prompted 3. f. Stewart, deputy
sheriff, to rise in his wrath and fire a
stone into the yestibule of a North Twenty
fourth street car on Saturday night,
James Hutchinson, the motorman, did not
appreciate the extreme provocation. He
filed a complaint in police court Thursday,
charging Mr.. Stewart with dlsorderly con
duct. The car was late and loaded with
passengers, therefore making no stops in
the effort to make up lost time.
Mr.. Stewards vengeful effort caused
nothing more serious than a broker pane,
company was willing to drop the case,
but Hutchinson demands redress.

The Paul divorce case, which has
dragged its length over two weeks, ended
Thursday afternoon. when A. w. Jefferis
closed his final argument. Judge Troup

because he goes to Burt county for a
week Monday and etwee now and then

Has IL come to this, tina counsel wants
to try his case through the press?" asked
A. w. Jefferis in his closing argument.
Jefferis also declared that General Gown
"insulted the court through a certain
line of argument advanced.
Final argument OF the proceedings was
heated throughout, General Gown attack
ing Paul again and again and lamenting
that the English language did not con-
tain words Of denunciation strong enough
to express his opinion OF Pau Neverthe-
less the attorney did manage to find a
good many fairly strong words.
M final plea Of General GOWN for the
defense was for no verdict submitting
Mrs. Paul and the children to everlasting
disgrace and infamy." Counsel in his ar
gument for the defendant practically
abandoned the cross bill against Paul and
strove his hardest that no decree shall is
sue on the groun0 Of infidelity.

II they only knew how to boost. Let the

While the river Is being fixed to carry

Considerable stress was laid by Governor
Brooks upon the conservation of resources

THE entire Mississippi and Missouri val
ley districts afford unlimited opportunities
for conservation" said he. "and it is
TO be hoped the next congress will take
an active interest in the matter. Other
states are expanding millions of dollars

there seems no good reason why the west

the verge OF overlooking.
THE conservation movement is an all
