! In a quiet way there has been consider
able discussion in regard TO the reticence
/ of Governor Aldrich to enter into any dis
cussion relative TO the general conditions
/ OF affairs in South Omaha during his late
| visit II is recalled that the governor mad
declared his intention OF looking into sew
eral matters, particularly the Fire and
/ Police board muddle. II is known that rer-
tain citizens of South Omaha paid a visit
lately to Lincoln for the purpose of laying
Complaints before the governor At the
/ time it was asserted that the governor
vas unwilling TO take sides with the men
who called upon him, but It was confidently
! asserted that he would, none the less, ex-
anime carefully into the matter

south Omaha school Affairs.
With the closing of the present school
term comes the induction of the new board
members into office and a consequent re-
! organization Speculation is rife as to the
alignment of the new organization. Both
new members are republicans and men of
| experience and education.
One OF the first problems to be faced by
the new board will be to determine when
tine teachers will receive their pay for the
last two weeks Of June. II is understood
that the teachers agreed to walt for this
money until July or even until September.
Another question facing the new board will
be to elect successor TO Perry Med.
Wheeler, the retiring principal OF the high
school. Mr.. Wheeler resigns to enter the
insurance business In Omaha. As to the
now principal the only expression of
opinion heard 20 far Is that he be a man
from home Mr.. Wheeler, the retiring prin-
cipal is a native son Of South Omaha, and
his administration Is said to have been
very successful.

Peter Uvick, charged with selling liquor

umony in the case the board has reserved
its decision until a later date. One OF
the members declared his intention Satur-
day morning Of inspecting the premises of
Wick Mrs. Exon, the Co plaintiff, as
serted that she could see patrons 20 into
Uvick's saloon by the rear entrance. This
Is declared to be impossible for the reason
that high board fence obstructs a view
OF the rear entrance. The case will prob
ably be determined some time during the
week.
