AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Another Industry is About to Be
Located in the City.
EMPLOYMENT FOR MANY PEOPLE
Ohio Concern that Manufactures Cans
and sanitary Ware Gets In Cor
respondence with Mayor
TrainOr.

The prospect Of new industry being To-
Gated in South Omaha and one that Will
give employment to many persons will be
gratifying news to the people OF the city
The announcement came through Mayor
Trainor with whom the Zeroze Manufac-
turing company Of Cleveland, O., has been
In communication. Officers Of the company
have written him that It is DESTROYS Of
securing a location for the erection of a
plant for the manufacture Of sanitary glass
lined milk cans, insulated milk and ice
cream cans, oyster cans and all descrip-
lions of this sort Of sanitary ware.
The company has informed the mayor
that It will require about three acres OF
land which must be situated inside the
city limits, and adjacent to railroad tracks
and paved street. The factory when COM
pleted will employ about $50 men and a
number OF girls.
The company has let It be understood
that II wants to take advantage OF the de-
velopment OF the west and that the growth
OF the milk business In this part Of the
country, is regarded by it as an inducement
to make this district center for the west
ern extension of its business.
Mayor Trainor will bring the matter be-
fore the next meeting of the Commercial
club. Meantime he has supplied the COM
pany with particulars as to sites and other
details, the seeking for which indicated that
there is a strong probability that South
Omaha may be selected as the location
for the ney industry.
The present state of the skilled labor
market in the city should act as a stimu-
lus to every effort being made to affect
this result. With the influx of laborers
from European countries that end Of the
field is more than stocked and II the plant
which the Cleveland company will install
will employ a higher type of worlSingmen
It will be a decided acquisition to South
Omaha.
City Engineers Reply.
City Engineer Roberts takes strong ex-
ception to the criticisms that have been
made by certain residents of the north
end of the city as to the character Of the
paving work done there during the last
year. He describes the protests made
against the special taxes las excuses on
the part of certain property owners TO
knock out the taxes and have the city pay
for the whole cost of the work"
Il will let the work be passed upon by
any engineer" he says in reply to the state
ments that the laying Of the pavement was
defective, both from a contractors and
| engineering point of view and he aludes
to the fact that about a month ago a
deputation from Red Oak, Ia, paid a visit
to South Omaha for the purpose of in
specting the paving and adds that so salts
fled was the mayor and the other members
Of the council who were with him-and
they examined these streets, he emphasizes
with what they had seen that they had
decided to follow the example of South
Omaha and returned home with the inten-
ton Of doing likewise.
! Il see,' continued Mr.. Roberts, that
j. w. Smith makes complaint about the
grade on Twenty-second street at his
place. 1 did not fix the grade; these
grades were fixed long before was ap-
pointed city engineer. 1t should, however
be recollected that the fixing OF the grades
Is matter that rests with the council
as city engineer make the Original
profiles. but in this case 1 neither made
the profiles nor fixed the grade. But
strongly dispute the assertion that Their,
Is the slant in the street Mr.. Smith says
there is and any one can see that"
City Engineer Roberts referred to tn,
difficulties the engineers department haC
to contend with when they came t
prepare for the paving of a street Pos
sibly we may find" he said, that som,
taxpayer to suit his own convenience hal
removed the stakes placed to regulate tn,
construction of his sidewalk and then W,
have to try as best we can to suit tn,
altered condition"
"A personal inspection" he added, 'by
any unprecedented person should convinc,
him there is nothing substantial behinC
these protests and there certainly are n,
serious cracks in the pavement Thes,
people themselves should be aware of tn,
fact that the inspectors who have beer
appointed for the several districts are resi-
dents Of those districts"
