Mr. Holmes, city attorney, said that so far as the city was concerned Judge Loafborou's decision was final unless they saw fit to take an appeal. Mr. Phillips wished to know what, in the opinion of the city attorney, would be result the of anappeal. Mr. Holmes said that they had drawn the first blood and he saw no way if the city continued the contract to escape legal death. Mr. Bloomer said he had drawn up a resolution that he thought should pass. "his caused a breeze that soon grew into a temptest. Hon. J. M. Phil- lips, who as all know, is very hard of Jhearing not wishing his friend Bloom- er to say much unless he heard it came forward and leaned over the rail beside Mr. Bloomer. At this Mr. Bloomer turned on Mr. Phillips and remarked to him that he meed not trouble himself to sharpen his saw that this was none of his soup bone. This touched ‘“Uncle John” and ho appealed to the city council to beallowed the privilege of ontering the council chamber in a city where he had made his home for more than mincteen years without being insulted by a man who always has gone off half cocked. If Mr. Bloomer had auything to settle with him he was ready to ste outside and settle it. The wind from both quarters soon subsided, and bus- iness went on, the council voting to refer the question of levying a library tax to a committee to report next Fri- day night. Several bills were taken up and allowed; amongst them was the bill of the Chicago lumber com- pany, which had been referred, amounting to $766.94; also the bill of Bebbington, amounting to $275.52. A petition of J. W. Peregoy and oth- ers to allow Pat Lacy to keep a saloon at the park during the coming races was read. A petition of G. L. Jacobs and fifty others inviting the mayor and council when they had time to take a snitt of Indian creek, and then adopt some measure to purify it, claiming that it had become the cesspool for all the filth of every name and nature and the last resting place of all animals that die in our city, This was re- ferred to the health committee with ‘nstruction to do anything in their er to sweeten Indian creek for Tacobs. A report was received Field, chief of police, re- 5 Tim Toner's case.

Further- re, he had allowed one of the girls to put his policeman’s cap on and taken her's on his beat with him, He had beside been seen on the streets intoxicated Mr. Dawson moved that the report be received and that Tim Toner discharged from the police force, Mr. Vaughan thought it should be referred to a committee, but the coun- il wasn't looking through those kind of eye-lights, and Mr, Dawson’s mo- tion prevailed. Mr, Churchill, to whom was referred the petition of James Brewster and others, asking council to submit the question 1o voters whether or not the | asse should be abandoned, reported that after investigating the facts and the law that it becawe the duty of the city council to take some action en the g:‘mm. He offored a resolution an election be held and this ques- “submitted at a time to be determined upon by the wmayor, who shall have m'fll:ll:t judges and super- election generally, gl resolution was adopted. H. Metcalf presented the follow- : *“Your committee to whom was the matter of change of on Bluffs and Pierce streets, » Willow avenue to Glen avenue would respectfully report that, after an examination of said streets, we would recommend that the present nnihmlvcc. or red line City Engineer Judson's profile, be followed from avenue to station 4 of said profile Hor ocntre grade, and that the upper P | didn’t have a friend on earth, ] and lower sides of said streets be made, respectively, one foot higher than said centre grade from station 4 to station 2.

To avoid any future disputes the committeo would advise that the parties whose grades are changed should be requested to file their written consent thereto, but that the refusal to give such consent should not prevent the establishment of the grade. 1In view of the future growth and improvement of the city the committee would say that the practice of making deep cuts through the bluffs for the opening of strects cannot be too severely condemned, that while a few lots may be bene- fited the great bulk of adjacent prop- erty would be severely damaged if not entirely destroyed, while the beauty of the bluffs, the most picturesque part of the city would be very much lessened. In the particular ¢ of Bluff and Pierco strect there is no public necessity for the deep cut pro- posed as it can never be used for busi- ness purposes. The only partic torested those who own the adjac property and who would be dam by the change. The committee th fore think that the grade should be established 80 as to serve those whose property alone is affected and the committee has acted upon the prin- ciple as near as possible. Horace Everctt, Spencer Smith, H, H. Met- calf. Tne Ber believes the above propo- sition so far as it relaces to the es- tablishment of grade ought to be sat- isfactory to all concerned, but it would advice council to consider that part relating to the building of a stone wall by the city along the route. Mr, Phillips sui({hu believed that the report should be adopted. All citizens living there ought to be satisfied, He lashed Al- derman Kellen retty so- verely until Keller looked as if he At the conclusion of Mr. Phillips address Mr. Dawson moved that the report be referred to a committee of the whole house, to be acted upon at their next regular meeting. At this juncture Mr. Dawson again arose and moved that Chief Field bes exonerated from all blame and the mayor censured for ublicly muking the charge against r. Fiold that ne did at one of the council meetings. Nate Phillips moved that the resolution be laid on the table. Mr. Dawson moved it be adopted. Mr, Keller seconded the motion. Mayor Vaughan sprang to his foet and made a most eloquent appeal to the council. We can not give his exact words but we will give them in substance: “My grave and rovorend seniors, partners of my toil, my fortuno and my fame: Hear me for my cause and bo silont that you may hear, Believe mo for mine honor and have respect to mine honor that you may helieve. Censute me in your wisdom and awake your senses that Kou may the better "judge. If there 0 any in this council, any dear friend of Chief Fields, to him I say that Vaughan's love to Field was no less than his, If then, that friend demand why Vaughan rose agamst Field. This is my answer: **Not that Iloved Field less, but that I loved Council Bluffs more. As Field loyed has | the Bluffs T weep for him, as he was fortunate in keeping peace out at Yonkerman's Garden on the 17th day of August, T rojoice at it, As hehas been a valiant™ and eflicient offi- cer T honor him. DBut as he was ambitious I did undertake his down- fall. T must say it is time the city council and the mayor ceased this fight. Field has no ‘better friend in this city than myself, In calling the attention of the city council to his conduct on that memorablo August day T believed I was doing my duty us mayor of this city.” Keller began to show signs~ of shrinking, Dawegon got behind a palm-leaf fan, Nate Phillips waxed bold. The mayor continued, “Who is there in the council who does not love the Bluffs? Speak! For him have 1 offertded who unonslt this intelligent mbly who would not stand up for John W, Chapman and our new line of Herdic coaches?’ Speak! For hh';nl h.‘n'vaT{‘ pflvnde%-l pause for a reply. is speech was ably deliv- ered’,' and had the desired ufl'aet’: Mr, Dawson sat motionless,Mr. Churchill said nota word, Mr. Phillips reached for the ice pitcher and d Keller a drink. Alderman Keller then arose and with head dipped at an angle of about 23 degrees began. That I did take some in this resolution ex- onorating Mr, Field is true, ‘I'hat I did intend the sting for the flesh of our honored mayor is true. I offer him I::I' excuse. It has been given out and oft repeated that our honorcd mayor on the rialto and in several places in our city has openly accused this council of being Noodles.

Murphy, escorting Hon. James Wilson, Hon, W. H. M, Pusey, Hon. D. €. Bloomer, Judge Loofborou and Col. Dailey. The following gentlemen we wards invited by Spencer ko seats upon the platform: Hon. P. Cussady, Herman Brown, C. . Driscoll, Charles Straub, Ch: Grawl. The band pla; an opening piece, after which the president of the school board, L. F. Murphy, mn a very pleasant and unassuming way deliv- ered the welcoming address “briefly. At the conclusion of Mr. Murphy's remarks Rev. I. T, Webb invoked iz, Mr, E, E. Ayles- worth was then introduced and spoke briefly, giving tho audicnce some iden of the inception and consummation of the grand ‘work. Mr. Aylesworth was frequently applauded and con- cluded 1n paying a beautiful tri- ute to Hon. D. C. Bloomer, after whom the school building had been named. It was then an- nounced that Mr. and Mrs. I. M. Treynor would favor the audience with vocal music. They sang a selec- tion appropriate to the occasion, Af- ter the duett Mr, D. C. Bloomer, the gentleman whose untiring zeal in be- half of the building of schools in this city has been ever recognized, was in- troduced. Mr. Bloomer was heartily applauded. He thanked the audience for the honor bestowed upon him and briefly reviewed the school work that had been donein this city, in conclu- sion Mr, Bloomer *‘There have been criticisms of lato upon our whole publie school system, and 1 one of the leading periodicals common schools have been declared a failure. Such a declaration is simply absurd and preposterous. They aro not failures, but a great success. They are educating a nation of frecmen for the lngher duties of American citizen- ship. — Thay may be improved, and should be, and will be, Kach year they will extend wider their beneficial influence and grow better and better. They are tho colleges of the people, open alike to all; and that they may ever prosper throughout the extent ot our broad land is certainly the prayer of ever true lover of his country and of humanity.” Prof. Farnham, uu[\urintemlent of our schools, was then troduced, and spoke brietly of our schools and teach- ers, As wo gathered all the different. materials and had them fashioned into this building by skilled workmen, so we must om- ploy skilled teachers to fashion the minds of our children, The work accomplished in building this edifice was grand, but there was still a more important work to be dono by the teachers of our city. For what they had done in the past he commended them to the favorable consideration of the citizens of Council Blufls, At the close of Mr. Farnham’s addross, the Misses Hewitt and Messrs, Pen- nell and Westervel rendered a charm- ing quartette. Hon. W. H, M. Puscy was then introduced. Mr, Puscy seemed in good humor, and deliv a very eloquent address, Hon. James F. Wilson was the next speaker, Mr. Wilson is a medium sized man, with short gray hair that stands up from his forehead as An- drew Jackson’s is represented Ho thinks a great deal of lnin country and her schools, and doesn’t, we think, forget Wilson, There was not a par- ticle of politics mixed with the ad- dress, but from the beginning to the close it was filled with rich, pointed thoughts, a little abstruse at first, yot it was excellent. He gave a full his- tory of our state school system, and anidea of what the tax-payers have to carry when we consider the edu- cation of our children is costing near- ly four millions per annum. We never mot Mr. Wilson, but really be- lieve he would make ‘a very good Uuited States Senator, Mr. Colbins,of the Methodist church, Y d rl'ummnuul the benediction, and the large audience dispersed, having en- joyed an evening long to be remewm- bered, THE HORSEWOMEN, Both the lady contestants for the *‘big’ prize to be given to the winner next Saturday have arrived in the [ derly was releasod. were was entirely cured by the use of Hop threats of lynching yester Bitters, Ttallayed all that burning | Snodderly will have a preliminary ex- | thirst; took away the appetite for amination next Thursday at 2 o’clock. | liquor; made his nerves st he has remained a sober and man for more than two yes THAT GERMAN LETTER, Mr. Faul, coroner of Pottawatta | | " jasire to’ roturn 'to Mis oups; T mie county attacks the reporter of |} o0's himbor of others that } T Bre quite sovorely, Wodo nobj o/ oired ot drinking by it."—From intend to discuss the matter with Mr. | 5 Ri oficial, OhivagojIili= Faul. 1t was very unfortunate that anything about the suicide should have ever got lost and when it is said that the letter that had ro name to it was the enly thing by which identi- ication could be shed we sim- y that the mans slippers, hat, 3 vateh chain, rticles were tound au TER: N epl revolyer, all these on his person, and N faul has them or Mr. Morgan buried them.
