that was accomplished under the most try !
ing circumstances for this section last fan,
Charles Cummings visited the offices Of
the Omaha s. Council Bluffs Street Rail
way and was assured by C. w. wattles
that as soon as an ordinance was intro
duced, OF 1t was evident an ordinance was
to be introduced, 20 repeal the present
contracts for the extention and to impose
an occupation tax. the work Of construc-
ton would cease and West L street would
be left to shift for itself. 1t will require
all the present week and perhaps more to
complete the line to the South Omaha Live
Stock exchange. When the results Of the
election are known and it is certain that
the democrats will break the present con-
tract the line may stop there.
The intense feeling Of las, fall should be
indication enough 10 the democrats that
the west side will have no patience with
the proposed program which will rob them
Of a car line. s L. Winters. democratic
city attorney is said 10 have given his
opinion that the contract under which the
extension is being pushed IS not valid and
can be easily put aside At ali events it
is a working agreement and is producing
results as the work on the extension by
the company shows The democratic posi-
tion is inconsistent also for all the demo
cratic members fought the occupation tax
in the council last fan and winter. How
they slipped through and bobbed up on the
other side Of the fence in the present cam
paign is one Of the transparent changes
which belong to simon pure democracy.
whose Assistant
The democrats yesterday INDUCED in
great complaint against the fact that
Mayor Koutsky's assistant was making a
copy of the poll books for the city central
committee on the ground that she is doing
work for the city and has no right to use
this time. It is forgotten that the city is
required TO furnish each campaign manager
with a certified copy Of the poll books and
that this is work for the city and must be
done by the city either by using its pre-
sent employees or hiring others. AS to that,
il is asked what is the difference whether
the city clerks assistant makes the copy
or the mayors assistant, both are doing It.
The city clerk Tuesday night at ?. m.
made a demand OF the mayors assistant
for the return Of the books TO the clerks
vault while at the same time the poll books
were left at the democratic headquarters
all night and some OF them were carried
away from that place TO the home Of
private individuals so that the democrats
could get their lists as promptly as possi-
| BILE No poll books have been allowed TO
reach the republican headquarters.
Democrats Refuse to Meet.
! The South Omaha democrats refused TO
! sign a call for a special meeting Of the
city council yesterday to award the pur-
chase OF fire hall site IN Albright The
| democrats plainly will not meet until after
the approaching election. II is said that
| the democrats are unfavorable to the To-
| cation Of a fire hall in the south side and
| will turn down the award after election
The democrats objected to the territory
J designated and to the sites offered on the
former advertisement and some OF them
I wanted to reject the bids and readvertise.

Gratis The special meeting was also i'm
portant that the ordinance which amends
the contract ordinance with the Omaha &
Council Bluffs street railway might be
advanced and passed 10 give the company
more time 10 complete the West street
extension. 1t is evident that the demo-

time and be consistent with the occupa-
tion tax feature Of the platform which
looks to the oyerthrowing OF this very
ordinance and contract
Little Foxes, Big Fire.
A glance at the democratic papers Of the
