LIGHT CONTRACT is
UP TO THE VOTERS
Preliminary Steps Have Been
Taken by the Signing Of
Referendum Petition.
CLERK TO CERTIFY NAMES

The city council was presented a
petition said to contain more than
5000 signatures. calling upon the
council to submit to a referendum
vote at special election the five-year
electric street lighting contract ap-
proved by the council October 3.
General Manager Howell of the
municipal water plant presented the
petition, with the following explana-
ton OF his recent activities in this
connection:
Two years ago the legislature passed, and
Governor Morehead vetoed. the Omaha cleo
trio light bill, which merely gave the peo-
pie Of the city Of Omaha the right to vote
upon establishing an el"ctric light plant in
connection with their water plant. The
Omaha Electric Light company, that was
almost wholly responsible for the campaign
against this bill, Is now fearful that the
governor to be elected next November will
not veto another Omaha lighting bill. should
It pass the legislature, and therefore the
company Is deeply interested In tying the
hands Of the city by q five-year lighting
contract at this time.
have been unable to believe that the
city council has appreciated the vital I'M
portanee Of leaving the citys hands free to
act at this time. when It passed the ordl-
nance granting the light company five
year contract. and therefore, together with
number of friends Of public ownership,
there has been secured a petition of more
than 5000 names asking that before this
ordinance goes into effect II shall be re-
ferred to a vote Of the people. and I now
formally file this petition with the city
council.
Should the coming Legislature. which will
meet within about sixty days. refuse to pass
another Omaha lighting bill, that will be
presented, there will be ample time then
for the city to make arrangements for ad-
ditional lights, which 1t must be apparent
cannot be Installed before next spring. even
though the contract In question should be
ratified.
The city clerk will certify to the
council as to the sufficiency of the
petition and then it will be up to the
council to give thirty days notice of
the calling OF the special election.

another season after the one soon to
open, il the European war continues
through the winter Of 19l7-l8, says
Giulio Gatti-Casazza, impresario of
the Metropolitan opera house. The
reason for this, he said, is that it is
now virtually impossible to engage
singers abroad because the men can
not obtain release from military duty

In the advancement Of agriculture
when the Farmers National congress
convened today for it's thirty-sixth

Prosperity, preparedness and con-

hour law, were among the subjects
discussed by H, z. Stockbridge Of
Atlanta, Ga. president. In part he
said: tit.s.. %.
:, The American farmer has never
seen so general or widespread 4
period of agricultural prosperity as
that Of the present year. Though the
farmer may fail to receive his fair
share of the consumers dollar, the
milk producers Of New York, the
wheat growers Of Minnesota, the hog
raisers Of the corn belt and the cotton
growers OF the south are too busy
counting profits to worry much over
the other fact"
He praised the administration for
its manner in handling the situation.
but took occasion to condemn the ia
cilities for mobilizing and equipping
an army which, he asserted, had
shown themselves to be weak. He de-
clared that the European war had
shown that successful warfare, often
sive or defensive, depends greatly on
gree of industrial preparedness.
Referring to the recent railroad
strike situation, Mr.. Stockbridge said
the farmers must be considered as
employers of labor and economically
the farmer is not laboring man.
