While waiting for enough members to set jthe ball rolling an informal talk was had, the chief theme of which was the manner in which the telograph interests of this city were neglected Several narrated personal experiences of delays and mistakes mado in the transmission of grams, causing in convenience and even loss of business. One gentleman produced a telegram received by him, which was twelve hours or so late in reaching him. 1In fact there seemed no end the complaints, and some went 8o far as to claim that in doing business at local points near here letter writing was speedier and surer than light- ning. The queation of securing a govern- ment building here for court and postoflice purposes was brought up again and the recent action of the council reported. Tt was suggested that some of the aldermen were hesi- tating about sending delegates to Washington to help secure the appro- priation because they doubted their legal right to do so. There were pre cedents to back up the sending of del- egates add there had never been any grumbling on the part of citizens, as the benefits sccured had far out- weighed the nccessary expense. The members of the board nod that o the securing of a government bui ing hoere was a matter public benefit, in which all had a share, all should take a like share in sceuring it. The city council has had 8o many injunctions, and had so much finan otal trouble, that at its meeting re- cently, when this matter was brought up, some aldermen mggestod that if they took such action as was desired by the petition of citizens, they might t into further trouble. In order to ce them up the board of trade at this meeting passed a resolution avow- ing their willingness to back up the council if they took this action, and to stand between the council and avy trouble. With this sssurance the council will doubtless feel warranted in going ahead just wo The matter of a bridge connecting this city and Omaha was called up, but nothing could bedone. The com- mittee appointed at tho last meeting reported that they had written to President Clark, of the Omaha board of trade, requesting a conference with the board or with some committee. A lotter had been reccived from him stating that the matter was one of im- portance to Omaha, and action would be taken at the mnext meeling of 1ts board of trade. Pending that action nothing could be done by the board here. The Jan for a wagon bridge in its pre iminaries at least seems to meet with the hearty approval of the business men of both sides of the riyer, and there is good reason for believing that that the project will actively pushed to a successful completion. After talking ovir these matters, adjournment was taken to meet atthe call of the president, it being under- stood that such call would be 1ssued 80 soon as the committee on the wagon bridge had unything new to report, as it is the desire to crowd the plan along as rapidly as poasible.
