g i S —— 6 P —— COUNCIL BLUFFS. Records of Events in Iowa’s Bustling Metropolis. Proceedings of a Long Session of the Oity Council. Oharter Amendment Discussed in its Phases. ©Odds and Ends Gathered Here, There and Everywhere. COUNCIL. DETAILED REPORT OF ITS PROCEEDINGS. 1t was quite late on Friday evening when Captain Vaughan ordered the plank hauled in and our little vessel left her moorings. The following of the crew responded to the roll call at the start: Fonda, Clurchill, Spetman, Phillips and Dawsen. The pilot, Holmes, came on board at the first landing; also Keller and Cavin. Among the passengers were noticed C. R. Scott, Col. D B. Dailey, N. M. Pusey, A. C. Graham, John M. Pal- mer, and several others. When we remembered that our craft contained Vaughan, Scottand Dailey we had some forebodings that it meant any- thing but a prosperous voyage. We feared that all would not be well, but having noticed that no rats were leav- ing, we concluded to remain to the end and if sho was scuttled to go down with the noble three, The sky was clear; not a ripple was observed on the water, The minutos of the previous evening were approved with- out reading. Several bills Jwere sented, amounting to about $3,000. Petition of N. M, Pusey request- ing the council to reconsider and re- peal a resolution by them or- dering a sidewalk laid on the east side of Sixth street, between Willow and Fifth avenues. Mr. Pusey said that titioners who asked for the walk id not own the property abutting along that street. The city had no power to assess church property for sidewalk improvements. That en the east side of Sixth avenue there was no need of a sidewalk, as there was suffcient room on the other side for the people who attended that church. There was mnot travel enough for a sidewalk he said, and he made the council believe it. On motion of Mr, Phillips, the former sidewalk resolu- tion was_reconsidered, repealed and rescinded, after which Mr. Phillips moved that that part of which inclu- ded the church property be not recon- sidered, ed and rescinded. and only that which touched Mr, Pu- sey’s pocket undergo the change. “This was done. Petition of Jens An- derson to open & saloon at 212 Bread- way, granted. Petition of Ellen Wi{de, Mary Ward andothers that the street lnmr be instructed to ex- tend the street culvert through %on an 0~ tition of J.'P. Casady and’ others for where the horse gero ;‘:lo l;r:; z:adbh not within the limits of Council Bluffs, The matter was re- ferred to'the judiciary committee, to act with the supervisor and city at- torney. Several persons presented a rtifion to open Voorhees street m Union to Franklin ave. nue. Mr. Churchill moved that it be referred. Cavin moved that it be granted and con- vinced the o&lll;cd at it was needed wery much, etition was granted. A potifion of John Clansen, T. J. Smith, 0. C. Bump, Geo. F.Bump and forty others, asking that the street supervisor, in filling the low lands, be required to take the dirt used therefor from streets that néed to bave dirt removed so long as the same can be obtained from ithese streets without additional expense. Cavin and Dawson ;m this, but Churchill, Keller, 8 and Fonda were in favor, and after quite a spir- ited debate the prayer was granted. A petition of J. P. Cassady, N. P, Plodge snd uku:fi that the powder house owni bfl, Powder company, on Benton street, be removed before the city is- sub. jected to another terrible explosion. il'lm' brought their qiont, Dr. A L (fnlum to his feet, and for s moment all thoughts of Fair- mount Park vanished. ~As if touched by an electric spark his hair was on end. He advanced to the railing and wanted :l‘:r knhzw what it sllhmb:mt. The paw: use proposed Te- mov:d. was the safest one that the people of Council Bluffs slept aside of. No other powder house inside the city limits could stand so long without blowing the city to pieces. It stood in the center of a five-acre lot, while others were allowed to remain in the center of the traveled part of the high- way. The powder house will remain, to L heard from at some future time perhaps, - J. Mueller and several oth- ers presented 8 remonstrance against the erection of three frame buildings on Main street south of Mueller's music hall. Mr. Mueller said that A, H. Harris was about to erect three small frame buildings all under one roof and suppo; by one frame, All the tection from fire offered 'Was one ness of brick around the sills covered with sheet wire. M, Dawson and Pat Lacy stated they con- mdered a building constructed in that manner more cornbustible, in case .of fire than it would be without the brick and iron around it. Mr. Churchill moved that the city attorney draw an order immediately touching the nmtt:ir of building within the city as amend- atory to the ordinance .13.4, in force to prevent the erection within the fire lhng::of the city of any building whose walls shall not be constructed of brick and inortar, or some non-com- bustible material not less than nine inches thick, The ordinance was Lt prepared and presented, and on mo- tion of Mr. Churchill the rules were suspended and the same put upon its first reading and then upon its final passage. It passed unanimously. Chief Lacy reported that the Bluff City hose cart had been ruined at the fire caused by the explo- sion which took place in this city, and recommend that a new horse hose cart be purchased, and also that as the time was approaching when fires were more prevalent, that the Rescue steamer be put into service. Mr. Churchill moved that the tire commit- tee be instructed te inquire into the matter and fit the steamer for active servico, Mr. Dawson moved that the hand engine be sold and the proceeds be used in fitting up the steamer and purchasing a new horse hose cart, Carried, Mr. Lacy also reported that it was almost impossible to get men to haul a hand engine to a fire or to work one after it was there. At the last fire all the way he could getany pumping done was to \»mmine to pay the men. Mr. Churchill moved that a building on lower Fifth street be built, in which the engine, after being filled up shall be kept for use. Lawson reported that the men at work at the brick yard on Vorhees street, had been taking material out of the strect until it had become dangerous, and moved that the matter be inves- tigated and they be compelled to put the street in ns good condition as they found it. Mr. Cavin responded that the Milwaukee and St. Paul railroad company had nearly reached Vaughan avenue and wanted to construct a dyke with a canal running through it, along the avenue. The matter was referred to Cavin, Churchill, Daw- son, L. P. Judson, city engineer, and Holmes, city attorney, Mr. Graham l'oportmi that the $830 appropriated for improving Farmount park had been expended, and that three miles of driveway had been constructed. He stated that one-half the inhabitants of the city would reach the park more. conven- iently from the southwest side of the blufts, through what is known as the plum patch. He believed that the right of way from Graham avenue to the park from this point should be condemned immediately and that $300 should be appropriated to cut a road through the Elufl‘l somewhere on the west side. The council voted the amount required, to be governed by bills drawn. Mr. Dawson, from the committee to investigate the charges brought by Chief Lwoz against Mr. Voorhees, reported that Voorhees, when he went to Omaha, supposed he had an understanding with Frank Guanilla to take charge of the hose cart. Mr. Dawson moved that he be excused. A resolution to the effect that no member of the fire department be allowed to léave his post of duty withot the consent in writing of the fire committee or the chief of the de- partment, was passed. Mayor Vaughn preunud & communication addressed to himself from 8. R. Jones in regard to the general ticket agents’ excursion. In presenting this Mr. Vaughan said Council Bluffs should meet them at the depot with carriages and drive them over our city and point out the advanf we have here over any other city in the west. Hon. Horace Everett offers his team, but one team is not sufficient, "I’huzho'ounoil lhougl appropriate $200 for this purpose, O, l{ Bcott, to the contrary, notwith- city taxes. (The last two powers have become obsolete by reason of the city having availed itself of the provisions of act 17 G. A, ch. ——) He has power to remit fines and pardon of- enses committed against the ordi- nances and regulations of the city, section 6, ord. p. 42, The provisions of the present char- tor giving the mayor the casting vote in case of tie is, in our judgment, highly objectionable both in theory and practice. The theory of our na- tional, state, and generally of the municipal systems of government in this country is, that the executive and legislative branches shall be separate and independent. In fact it does not seem to be meet and proper that he who has a voice in the enactment of a law should be the party charged with its execution, The provision as to the pardoning of offences and remission of fines is objec- tionable, The pardoning power is one which is of doubtful import. Tt should be rarely exercised, and should be used with great judgment and dis- cretion, Tt is an engine of power, and is capable of being perverted to the most abject ends, We think it 18 a power which the good government of our city does not require to exist. Under the general laws the mayor is elected for two years. He has all the power now vested i the mayor of our city by sec. 11 of the charter, but not any of the other powers vested in the mayor under the present charter, ex- cept to preside over the meetings of the council and certify ordinances, ete. OF SUBORDINATE OFFICERS, Under the present charter the coun- cil appoints a street commissioner, clerk of the market, city supervisor, health officer and such other officers as it may deem advisable, Section 24 ord, p. 35. Incaseofa tie vote on any of those appointments, the inayor has the casting of his vote, Under the general law, the council appoints a city clerk, Uode, section 522, and the qualified clectors elect a civil engineer, a treasurer, an auditor, a solicitor, a police judge and a super- intendent of the market, if one is re- quired; their tenure of office is two years. Code, soc. 535. ‘T'he council may appoint, or provide that the electors shall elect, such other city officers who may be neces- sary for the good government of the city, and whose term of office shall be one year. Code, sec. 524 We unhesitatingly recommend to your tavorable consideration the pro- visions of the general law on the sub- ject of these subordinate officers. By making the most important of them clective they will feel and act as the servants of the people and not as the favored friends of a majority of a quo- rum of the council; they will be in- dependent of the council; equal with them so far as the the tenure of their office is concerned, and especially the auditor will act as a valuable and sal- utary check upon the expenditures of the people’s money. By estab- lishing a proper system of aud- iting all the accounts of the city (which will have to be done by the first council under the new organization if that is adopted, the people will be able to ascertain, what it 18 now an utter impossiblity for them to find out, what the indebt- edness of the city and how its money ‘has been expended. Under the gen- eral law those several officers includ- ingin the number the clerk of the council are checks upon each other, standing, Whether you appropriate this money or not, I, sl&i:::n:::dl in mtl:‘n, :flll):i::; railroad magnates and s e praises ot our cit{c to the best of my ability. Was moved that “the council ap- | ded in ‘(:n;' tered. 0 propriate 100 to be ex; tertaining these railroad offici was laid on the table after quite a spirited debate of the question of the por- 1 ality of the act, r. Pusey presented the estimate of the cost of constructing the leves, and also a profile of the route of the same as drawn b{ the U. P. engineer, and asked that the council appeint a committee from their own number to proceed to Chicago with the commit- tee appointed by the board of trade for the purpose of conferring with the officials of the Northwestern railroad company in regard to what assistance may be ex] from that Quarter, The following-committee was appoint- ed: Aldermen Churchill, Dawson, Phillips, Fonda and Cavin, with the 8 Dupont |' mayor as chairman. It was also voted that the city attorney proceed at once to procure the right of way, with the xlluunaa of the following committee: dermen heller, Spelman and Un- thank. By this time we had reached the wharf where the little craft was made fast until Friday evening, Octo- ber 7th. On the whole this was about the pleasantest trip that we. have CHARTER AMENDMENT. WHAT MR, PUSEY HAS TO BAY ABOUT THE MATTER, The able argument presented to the board of trade in favor of a new char- ter by Hon. N. M, Pusey must con- vinoe the voters of this city that there are advantages to be derived by the change. In'speaking of the power vested in the mayor, Mr, Pusey says: ‘It is proper that we should now state that in the investigation we have made as to the propriety of incorpo- rating under the ginon{ law, we haye examined the city charter and tho laws of this state applicable to cities under special charters as to the pres- ent powers of the officers of the city, ;nd no:o:ny oldmnn/.mc'fl which may aVe n passed granting further wers to them. We have “”llll lim- ited the investigation in our compari- son of the two systems of municipal government, begause the city charter and aforesaid laws are. fundamental, while the ordinances are fubject to repeal or alteration at any time and by any council, Under the presont charter the mayor is elected for one year, and it is his duty as prescribed by section 11 “‘to see that the laws and’ ordinances of the city are executed and their violations punished; to superintend and direct the official conduct of the subordinate ofticers; to sign and seal all commissions, licenses and permits ranted by the city council.” In ad- ition to these powers he is the pre- siding officer of the council, and shall give the casting vote when there is a Ho issues He shall . He attaches his warrant to tax lists requiring the city He ox- ecutes tax deeds for property sold for tie, section 13, ord. p, 32, proclamations for elections, sign ordinances. marshal to collect the taxes, and when a system of checks of this character prevails there is always r security to the citizen that the ances, and city affairs will be hon- estly, properly and promptly adminis- In conclusion, Mr. Pusey says; ‘‘After a careful and reflective cou- templation of these two systems we think our city has grown to such pro- portions and has such possibilities be- fore it in the future that the charter under which it was organized and now acts is not as well fitted to ensure the welfare of its inhabitants as is the general incorporation law of the state; and hence we unhesitatingly recom- mend to you, and to all good people having their own interests and those of the city at heart, to cast their votes for the change of corporate or- ganization.” ‘When we consider that the above is the result of weeks spent in investi- gating the matter, and is the opinion of notonly the writer but the board of trade, composed of some of our best business men, who certainly have the welfare of our city at heart, we can not but think that this city should at once incorporate itself under the general laws of the state, When our mayor found that he could not get any financial help from the city council, he determined to do the best ho could to give our city a standing at the grand railroad ofticials’ athering, which took place at the nion Pacific depot in this place. The party arrived at the depot at 1 gjclock. A sureptious repast was spread before them by Messrs, Markel & Swobe, who never leaving an, thing out of their *“‘me-me” during the progress of the dinner. Mayor Boyd, of Omaha, being present, was called upon and in uite a facetious manner responded as ollows: ~ *‘Omaha has had a mayor noted for his eloquence, but this year that city elected a man who was noted for the amount of flrst-class pork put upon the market and that characaeristic peculiar to him- solf and General Grant—silence. But, said the Omaha mayor, warming up, I have a representative prosent who promised me if I accepted the nomination fur mayor and was elected he would stand by on all occasions and do the talking. duced General Manderson, who spoke briefly. In the course of his remarks he said that the railroad no longer fol- ‘fowed the pioneer, but had itself be- come the pioneer. At the conclusion of Mr. Manderson's remarks Mr, Car- enter, of the Chicago, Milwaukee & lt. Paul, spoke appropriately in re- ply. £ Mrs. Smith, in behalf of the lady excursionists, read the following: The ladies accompanying the excursion meeting desire to express to the gen- tlemen, at whose invitation the excur- sion has been taken and whose watch- ful and constant attention have over- looked no details, and their assistants who have so_faithfully seconded their endeavors, their acknowledgment for their unallowed pleasure, Now came our turn, and C, S, Clur}‘ offered a pleasantly worded res- olution, A FAITHFUL EMPLOYE, On Saturday last the consolidation THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY OCTOBER 3, 1881, ; of the K, C, & St. Joe railroad with the C., B, & Q. was consummated in this city. They will hereafter be run under one management. By this change we understand that J. H. Marshall, agent for the Kansas City road, a gentleman who has become known to almost every school child in our city, will be laid upon the shelf for the present, but not long, as the combination cannot afford to be without the services of a man who has been tried in the balance and found not wanting. Mr. Marshall has servod the old Kansas City road faithfully for thirteen long years, having en- tered upon duty in November, 1808, when the road opened at this point. He has witnessed the Alpha and Ome- ga of its experience as an independent road. Mr. J. L. Taylor, the traveling auditor, says that he never audited an account finally that he re- gretted so Jmuch as Mr. Marshall’s, Since Mr, Marshall has been with the company he has never had a day’s re- spite from his labors, having never asked fora leave of absence. He thinks that the change will give him an opportunity that he has long (lunirw{ of taking arest. He will re- main in Council Bluffs awhile and then take a trip for general recreation. When he returns we hope he will still be retained in the employ ot the new combination at this point. THE DYNAMITE BUSINESS, The Rock Island officials declare that it is agaimst the express orders of their road to transport what is known es dynamite, which they believe was concealed in the car in the giant pow- der. They have even found this ex- Y]uuivs conceale1 in packagesof sugar, ’rof. Page says how, even if the car had been filled with powder, and so much force had not gone downward, both Councii Bluffs and Omaha would have been destroyed. According to his views powder is more dangerous than dynamite. COME BACK, Leonard Everett, son of Hon. Hor- ace Everett of this city, who has been S. P. MORSE & CO: 1319 Farnham Street.
