[ e —— d [ — 6 COUNCIL BLUFFS. Resord of a Day's Doings in Towa's Metropolis, Grade Decided Upon Bluffs Street. Closing Day of the Week's Races. Many Other Mattors of More or| Less Moment VOLUMINOUS EPORT OF COUNCIL'S LAST.

His tatives of our city. couneil epeech was brief, but there was more sound sense in one line of it than any thing we have heard since we have had the honor of attending those ses- The Colonel said: **You have listened patiently to my nd Wright, who i3 here, like myself, in the capac- ty of counsel for the parties inter- csted in the Bluft' street grade. You wre not, however, to consult the in- | sions. terests of his client, or mine. You owe your first duty to the general public, and in_establishing this grade you should weigh well their interests, wd not swerve trom a judgment formed if you believe the public in- terest demands such judgment Where a private demand conflicts with a pub- lic necessity, your duty is cn tho sile of the people; but where a public de- mand can be satisfied, it should be done with the least inconvenience to a private individual.” A few such cemarks cannot help being beneficial to any body of men called from the walks of . private business life into the council chamber of any city. The first business was calling the voll. Five aldermen responded mak- ing & quorum, g&evum\ bills were allowed and the debit side of the account exposed to view, showing total amount expended sinee April 1, 834,606, and a few cents, R. P, Wheeler, who took out a li- <ense to exhibit the American flag, inanovel way in our city, becanse the police would mot allow him to make & nuisance of it by showing the thing to little girls and boys on the streets, petitioned the council to re- fund the money back. The city got the money, however, and will keep it as Churchill moved to lay the petition on the table, Fonda wanted toknow what the Ame Mr. Vaughan said it was a kind of ‘‘Newcharterherdicconch™ game and was harmloss. It was a machine with a window in each end. Yoo looked in at the north end, and yo cvuld see J. M. Palmer and several | other well-known citizens, including | 7. W. Chapman and the mayor, going | to the transfer on the new street railway. By turning the thing around and looking from the same side but through the other end, you could see Chapman and Vaughan riding by the Ogden in a Herdic coach, each hold- ing in his hand an American flag, or | the red, white and blue. Mr. Fonda said that it should never be allowed on our streets, and seconded Mr, Churchill's motion to lay on the table. Next came a complaing from an- other gambler, who claimed that he |y paid Mayor Vaughan 810 for a permit to operate a game of fortune ona | vacant lot near Broadway, and had | been stopped by the police. ' He asked | the honorable council to refund the | money. The matter was laid on the | table. Petition of Henry Swickhard to open a saloon under Planter's hall was granted. Report of city officers showed 122 arrests made during the month of August. J. W. Morse, acting city marshal, re- vorted dog tax collected, $40; ex- pressage paid in going after the dogs, i0; balance on dogs in favor of city, 84,40, This bill was rveferred, Quite a discussion was entered into over a chloroform bill that Mayor Vaughan contracted to use on the man who had his hand cut off at the Northwestern depot 4 short time ago, Bome one claimc«l that the 85,000 ex- r«ndud for the driving park was arge enough to be expended without discussion, and that hereafter these bills should be more eritically scanned. To be sure it was only 78 cents, but he thought the matter should be referred to a committee, Horace Everett, !l\hluulf and Swmith were suggested The mayor thought .:uhuulglfifie referred tu’ Mr, ]!fi’lr- roughs, It was so referred. After a few other matters of minor import- ance were disposed, Dawson moved the report of the citizens’ com- mittee be laid on the table, Mr. Kel- ler seconded the motion, which was carried. Thus expired, on the even- ing of the 3rd of September, A, D. 1881, during the third weck of its ex- istence, the document that Hon. Hor ace Everett, H. H. Metcalf and Spen- cer Swmith gave birth to in behall of peacg on iflum street, as a citizous | committeo. This report was pub |lished recently in Tue Bee The ordinance known as the Killer ordinance and whic settles the Bluff street grade, so far as the city is con | cerned, reads ommon council of the city of Coun cil Blufts; That the grade of Pierce | as follows | and northwest side of Willow avenue 69 feet above the plane of reference, and at 100 feet north of Willow street, 72 fee’. above the plane of ref- | erence, and at 200 fect above plane | of reference, 78 feet, and 300 feet | west of Willow street, 86 fe the plane ot reference, feet north of Willow s above the plane of reference, and at 630 feet north of Willow streot, feet above the plane of reference the junction of Pierce and Bluff | fect “above the plane of reference, and at the junction of Pierce strect and Glen avenue, 70 feet above the | plane of reference | 8re 2 tablished shall on the south side of Blufl street be two feet on the opposite side of said street | Sec. 8. That all ordinances or parts of ordinances in confliet with this or | dinance : ded. Mr. Churchill moved that the rules suspended and the ordinance pass- 1 to a second readinz, Mr Dawson | seconded the motion, Geo. F. Wright counsel for Phillips and Wallace ask ed the council to lay the matter over until the next meeting, There was no lar necessity of rushing thisun- important matter to a final passage. The new ordinance had already lifted his client’s grade up two feet. That was very well and he thanked them for that small concession. He thought perhaps his clicnts would be satisfied with the Keller ordinance, but they would like a chance to look it over, He was glad to have his friend present. They deprecated a la at the end of which some one would have a heavy bill to pay. ‘“Now,” he continued, “‘if the council will give a little time the parties can get together and arrange matters and save litigation.” Col. Sapp said the city council had vot»d toend this matter at that meeting, The ordinance had passed to a second reading and under the rules it was too late to lay it on the table. He then gave the council the advice mentioned above and retired. Uncle John Phil- lips was in the room, as was soon ap- parent. He stepped to the rail and taking from his pocket a piece of paper addressed the council in behalf of the citizens’ report, le said he could not for the life of him undor- stand why the council was treating him as they wore; why they desired to drive him into court to seek re- dress, a8 thoy certainly would if they passed that ordinance. Horace Ev- erate, H. H. Metcalf and Spencer Smith, three as honest, upright citi- ng as Council Bluffs contains, had reported that Bluffs street would t above and at 430 et, 9 feet never mako a business street. They had offered a fair and just compromise of the matter. continued, ‘“‘why do “Why,” he you jn this? Do you know, gentle- men, that John W, Phillip pays more personal tax, aside from the firm, than every member of this council com- bined/ I have here in my hand a copy of the record. I pay a personal tax of §626,58, while you gentlemen altogether pay only $496.22; and gen- tlemen, are you going to destroy my property in my old age, just to please this man Keller? to enable him to get furniture out of the ba:k door of that hen-coop he i building on Broadway? You never will do it gentlemen—never —never—mnever!” But they did. The Keller ordinance passed almost unani- mously, after which the following res- olution was passed: Resolved. That the city grant the use, for the torm of fifteen years, to J. M. Phillips, of the triangular tract of ground eight feot wide at the uorth end and running to present street line at south end of Mr. Phillips’ property on the east side of Bluff street in said city. f\u ¢ fhis Mr. Holines appe the scens and Mr, “Wright and J, Phillips frotired. Ho fwas not look ing as well as usual, having met with an accident at the park. Ho gave his opinion in regard to the granting to a new com- pany the right to oceupy our streets for streot car purposes. He wmid it cannot be granted by this city, The ordinance granting a new charter to M. Palmer and others would have no more weight than so much blank paper This city has no right what- ever to grant such privilege to a cor poration ofany singleindividual, “My advice to you gentlemen,” said the ity attorney, *'is to tear up the peti- tion of the: ck on ourstreets they have ght to do so, and would be held responsible for any damage to abut- owners, But it you grant this sht, having no authority under the law, this would be responsible for all damagos, Fonda said, “That sottles it. Wo are bound by the opinion of our logal advisers,” This made the mayor smile. A member moved that it be torn up; another that it be laid on the table, Mr, Fonda remarked that the committee of the council had met the committee of the railway and the; had agreed on passing the old ordi- nance as an amendment. The coun- cil committee did not like the section requiring a vote of the counci! before complaint for non-fulfillnent of the amended ordinance. He believed that both committees were satisfied with the Holmes ordinance as amended, and moved thatit be adopted, Ald man Phillips requested that the instru- ment be handed to him. He said it was the first time he had heard of it. Mr. Fonda said it had been before the council for two months, Mr, Phillips still insisted it was the first informa- tion he had in regard to it, and moved as it was an ordinance of unusual weight at be laid over untal the next mecting, s was carried, and the { council adjourned to meet to-night. BURKE AND PINNEO. FINE EXHIBITION oF HORBEMANSHIP, The last day of the races was a grand success, like each and every day.

Thepurseoffered for thisrace was 8500, 8260 to the first, $130 to sec— ond, $70 to third, 850 to fourth, The afternoon opeaed up with a dif- ferent aspect. The teams filed through the main_entramce so closely packed that men had to be stationed there to break the jam., The spacious amphi- theatre was filled to overflowing. It would be safe to say that 10,000 peo- ple, divided equally between Omaha and the Bluffs and other surrounding towns, were in attendance. After waiting some time the monotony was relieved by the appearance of Mrs, Burke, accompanied by Lady Suffolk and her attendant. ~ They passed down the track and every eye in that vast multitude was fastened upon the woman who had had pluck enough to challenge the young lady who had just defeated the wild racer of the prohibitory state, and who had won the golden belt of her own Colorado. Mrs, Burke was soon mounted for the one mile dash and when she rode up the track and passed the amphitheatre cheer after cheer rent the air, Here the scene changed Miss Lizzie Pineo came upon the track and the plaudits were now given to her. Promptly at three o'clock the riders informed that they must take wositions with Mrs, Burke on the outside for the first race on the card; purse $75— 850 to first and § to second. Mrs. Burke was dressed ina riding habit of dark-blue, with cap to match; Miss Lizzie Pinnco in a habit of the same color with a gen- tleman’s cap. A heavy white belt encircled her waist. At the word go Miss Pinneo took the lead and kept it to the end of the race, winning very easily in 2:02]. Miss Minnie Pinneo at this juncture appeared on the track accompanied by her mother, and wearing upon herarm a beautiful floral wreath, composed of gerani studded with verbenas of ev and color, for the neck of ,“Sorrel Dan,” and a bouquet of flowers of a pyramid shape, tor her sister, who, temporarily at least, had Murs. Burke of some of her conceit. | The next race was the much talked of one between Miss Minnie Pinneo and Mrs. Burke, ten miles, for a purse of ,000. Miss Pineo entered Stock- | ing for the first and sixth miles: Bis-| marck for the second and Sorrel Dan for the third and Smiler for the fourth and ninth, Jim Scott for the fifth and tenth, Murs. Burke, Petrcede, for first aud | sixth, Cousin Kate for second and seventh Boston, third and cighth, Nell, fourth and ninth, At this juncture a squall struck up, and it seemed for a while as if the day’s sport was to come to an unple ant consummation.

The pesitions were held and about the | same distance maintained between the ladies until Mrs. Burke came down the nome-stretch of her eighth mile Miss Pinneo was at the three-quarter pole of her soventh, making at this time a mile and one-quarter between them. On her ninth mile Mrs. Burke crowded up to Pinneo a little on her eighth, and went under the wire on her tenth when Miss Pinneo was at the three-quarter pole of her eighth, winning the race in 23 minutes and 40 seconds The following table will show the time made by each rider: 1ot MES.

Mrs, Burke does not sit upon a horse as a jockey, but as a lady. She is a splendid fig- ure in the saddle, and her manner is such that she at once gots the crowd in lier favor, How they arranged the proceeds of Suturday’s exhibition we are not_advised; but should say that it should go into the exchequer of the association. The management of- fored no prize for a race between Mrs, Burke and Miss Minnie Pinneo.
