About noon yesterday there was a noisy disturbance near the Fourth ward polling place, one man being so drunk and disorderly as to require the attention of the police. Officers Cusick and Morse arrested him and started with him for the station. The crowd jeered and hooted, and many gathered about the officers as they started on their way with the prisoner, Mayor Vaughan came along, and, see- ing the condition of affairs,ordered the officers to let the man go, The officers protested, and seemed determined to take the man despite the mayor, but the latter insisted on letting the pris- oner go, and the Vaughan sympa- thizers endorsed the mayor's inter- ference by beats and threats. The officers,seeing that to persist in the ar- rest would be the occasion for a gen- eral riot, to which the mayor's action was inciting, reluctantly let go of their man. Much indignation was felt by many that the mayor, whose office makes great bodily injury, and one for man- slaughter. District Attorney Connor and John Y, Stono were for the prosecution and Mynster & Adau s, of this city, for the defi nse. —Rev. Mr, Hamlin gave a very prasti. cal und earnest talk an Bunday night con. cerning the responsibility of all citizens to favor law and order, and to stand in sup- port of morality in all municipal as well aa national affair . He drew some strong thoughts from the soene of the soldiers gambling at the foot of the cross for the garments of the crucified one, utterly in- different to thesurrounding oiroumstances, He handled gambling and other evils very plainly, frankly, aad st the same time without any ranting or exaggeration, A family by the name of Scott started | ® for Macedonia Bundsy, expecting to make that place their home, They were stopped when about two miles out, and detained because of & charge against Mr, Scott of having stolen 86 from Sam Richardson, Mz, Seott felt quite outraged, as he de- clared himself innocent, and unable to bear the expense of keeping | is family bere until he could get hearing.

Bhupe and A, Compton, council- men. him a peace officer inatead of a peace breaker, should thus interfere with the police in their attempts to pre- sorve order. It seems as if he was determined that nothing shall be done in favor of good, decent government. Yesterday opened clear and chilly. At an early hour the election boom began, there being a crowd about the pools even before the windows were opened. Music, loud talk, yells, button holing and campaign hur- rahs began early and continued spas- modicnfiy during the day. The saloons were very shy about opening, and eu(liy in the morning there was a very dry look tc all the orowd, but by noon there became evident that there were leaks somowhere, and that men were getting chances to booze. There was enough martial music in the air to make the raising of a regi- ment for war ‘rurpum. Vanghan had the Boys’-band out in° a wagon, and while the boys bad cause, ectill they played most excellently. It was the first time that the boys ever appeared in public, and it was 80 cold that with benumbed tingers and stiff valves, the boys played at a disadvantage, but all were surprised at the skillful manner in which they rendered the imposing se- lectiona. The democrats had Olker's band, which did its full share to making the air filled with music, The Bohemian band, of Omaha, in an elegant band wagon, furnished in- spiration to republican voters, They plnfied well, umerous wagons, loudly placarded, were about the streets. Those for Vaughan were most conspicuous, they having such mottovs as ‘‘Down were in & with Tax Misers,” ‘Equal Taxes for AIL"” One was particularly noticeable, it - bearing upon its side the permanent lettering, *‘Her- dio Line,” while a cotton cloth ban- ner bore the freshly-painted words, ‘‘Vaughan and Improyements,” To many it was very suggestive that if the Herdic was a sample of Vaughan’s improvements, there waa a misnomer somewhere in hus claims, Around the polls all day there surged crowds, full of noise, and yet there was little fighting, except with tongues, although the feeling was in- tense. ‘There were such crowds about the polls, and so much noise and confusion, that the voting was cot so expeditious as 1t would have been otherwise, and thepollaclosing at4 o’clock made short time 1n which to get the ballots in. When that hour arrived there was a slight rush at the Second and Fourth ward polling places and some who de- sired to vote were cut o, Haa the polls been kept open until 6 o'clock there would doubtless have been two or three hundred votes more polled in the city, As the polls closed there was a good natured hurrah went up and whole bundles of unused tickets were thrown aloft, the wind scattering ‘them in all directions, frightening Lorses and giv- ing the appearance ot a cyclone mixed with a snow storm. Tne vount showed that the following number of votes A NEW EPOCH. The Bee Announces Itself in lowa and Couneil Bluffs, It is perhaps egotistical for a news- paper to announce new departures. But Trn Ber feels an excusable pride in placing itself before the public of Council Bluffs and Towa generally as one of the newspapers which belong to that populous city and thriving state, This pride is born of the fact that Tne Bee has made the only successful at- tempt by a newspaper of Omaha to find either readers or patronage in Oouncil Bluffs and Towa. It is born of the fact that Tae Ber has had beeu polled in the several wards, making the largest vote ever cast in the oity: First ward, 481; Second ward, 696; Third ward, 403; Fourth ward, 720; total, 2,300, The large number ot soattered and aplit votes make the count slow and tedious, Hard on the Famlily, Yesterday morning, bright and early, a family from this city started for Macedsnia with what few traps they hid, expeocting’' to make their home ihere, ey were in poor oir- oumstances, and there were six little children to be'cared for, They had hired a teamster to take family and fi)dl‘ in a farmer’s wagon, and when ut two'miles out on the road, were overtaken bi Constable Rosecranz, who wanted the man Scott on a charge of stealirfg $6 from a man named Bam Richardson in this city, in whose house the Scott family stopped Satu- day &lflh" The whole outfit returned to olt{, Boott was taken to jail, and the family left in the wagon, the children shivering with cold, and the mother crying and not knowing what to do. Bcott denied the charge, and said Richardson had beeu out on a spreo the night before, and that if he lost any money he had lost it that " o family after shivering about for some time sought warmth at the s:‘l'we station, and after some time tt was allowed to go on giving a small security, He in turn swore out & warrant for Ri n for false imprisonment, and the two sides of the story will have an airing after eleotion, The condition of the fumily, without house or money,excited much sympathy among those who saw them hovering about station, and who listoned to their statement of their troubles. established condlusively that the waters of the Missouri divide only states, not nationalities, and that the twin cities of the Big Muddy should shake hands 1 cordial friendship instead of offish acquaintance. in the present number of Tur Bre a new epoch is opened. This paper has had the go.d fortune to thus far be graciously received by the Council Bluffs citizens who have soanned its columns, and it has also obtained a fair proportion of the advertising patronage from jthe most beautiful and enterprising city which the east side of the Missouri can boast of. This new epoch is none other than the establishment in Council Blufts of a distinet depariment of Tme Bee. Of this department Mr. C. E. Mayne, who is widely and favorably known to hoth Couancil Bluffs maha peo- le, assumes the management. Mr. ayno is & gentleman of high personal worth, enterprise, and reat capaoity, His re- sponsible position on Tue Ber in Omaha, where he has had for nearly six months the entire charge of the enormous morning daily and week), circulation of this paper, has suf- ficiently demonstrated this. In per- sonally assaming the supervision of the Council Bluffs and Towa circula- tion of Tue Bee he takes upon him- polf no, less a responsibility, and he briugs himself into closer contact with the opposing forces which Tae Ber has to meet in the great middle state. 1In other words Mr. Mayne is ‘‘carrying the war into Africa.” He . is putting himself into the position where he will meet the support of many friends and the antagonism of some enemies. Under the management of Mr. Ma; the Council Bluffs department of Tue Bee will be conducted judiciously, with enterprise and, as far as possible, with satisfaction to all readers. It is the desire of the present management of Tur Bk to give the public all the news, and without question the great- est facilities ever accorded to any pa- per in the west for obtaining the news are in their possession. Consequently 1t is & source of great congratulation to the mlnlgemnz of this paper that ;2. able a ::ineu hl:zn;;.g:sr. lll M‘: yne may be put ol of ‘the Council Biuffs ‘department. Under his supervision and, with Mr. Tilton as city editor, THE BEE assures its sister city readers that it will endeavor to follow the same rule adopted in the past,—*The news, all the news, and nothing but the news.” An Eerly Morning Blaze. About 7 o'clock yesterday morning fire was discovered at the round house of ‘the Chicago & Northweatern rail- way, located in 'the remote part of the northwest section of the city. The building was beyond the réach of the | ex fire department, and the only stop to the blaze was a stream put on the building by the railway employes. The round house was a rickety old affair, and it was burned to the ground, The loss is only nominal, and the building will probably now be replaced by one more suitable and lngat-ntisl. The cauge of the blaze is supposed to be a spark from a loco- motive, BLANCHARD BRIEFLY, Straddling the Divide of Iowa and Missouri and Prospering + Finely. Correspondence of Tus Bus.
