For some time the payment of taxes has been largely made by war- rants, Tlrose having taxes to pay would procure city warrants at a dis- count and pay their taxes with these, and as a result very little money comes in. At the last meeting of the council the following resolution was intzo- duced by Alderman Goulden and adopted: Resolsed by the city council of the city of Council Bluffs, that the coun- ty treasurer bo and is hereby instruct ed to receive city general fund war- rants only for city general tax, ten (10) mills, and that all ofher taxes levied for the year 1881, shall be col- lected in cash or warrants drawn on special funds, and that the auditor is hereby instructed to furnish the county treasurer with a certified copy of this resolution. This resolution will cause more cash and less w.rrants to flow into the strong box of the city, and it is thought will help out somewhat on the city’s finances. There was some doubt expressed as to the legality of the resolution, but the city attorney willing to take the scales off Mr. Oberlinger’s hands at $300, but says that he will give what they may Le deemed worth by an honest appraise ment, provided that whoever succeeds him shall take them off his hands at a price to be fixed for by appraisement when he retires from office. M-, Oberlinger, on the other hand, does not feel that it is just for him to lose the amount of the depreciation, as it runs back throngh several administra tions, Some of the aldermen think that the city should own the scales, and furnish the weighmaster with his instrum®nts, just as they furnish an engine for the firemen, or books and stationery for the auditor. Others think that the scales should be handed down by purchase, as in the past The question was temporarily disposed of at the last gouncil meetiog by de ciding that a committee shall appraise the scaler, that the new officer shall purchase them of Mr. Oberlinger at that price, and the difference between the appraisement and what Mr. Ober- linger paid for the scales shall be paid by the council to prevent any loss on the part of the latter, the appraisal to be first subject to the asproval of the council. The city market will not be formally superintended by Capt. Wil- liams until this matter of scales is finally fixed upon. What the Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul Is Doing in lowa. thought it would stand fire. There are a large number of little bills against the city, for which no warrants have been issued. These bills are more of them over $18, and most of them were for petty services, for which the pay is needed by those rendering them. Tde recent edict of the council forbade the auditor issu ing any warrants, but at the last meot- ing it was decided to let him issue warrants for these bills, which make a tatal of $405, said warrants to be issued as soon as the new warrant books are ready. The work on the new engine house has been stopped, because of lack of funds. The contract calls for cash, and there is a balance due which is needed to pay off the carpenters The new council has got to solve the problem as to how to get this matter fixed up. The engine house is very near completion, and itis quite essen- tial that it should be made ready for occupancy, and the mechanics paid up. Another move to help the finan- cial condition of affuirs is a resolution intrcduced by Alderman Siedentopf, and adopted by a unanimous vote, it being to the effect that the mayor and council be constituted a committee of the whole to labor with these prop- erty owners who have enjoined their taxes, and endeavor to get them to withdraw their suits. The ocity attorney is prepaiing a written opinion concerning the power of the council to issue warrants, and the extent of the constitutional limit of indebtedness. The committee appointed to the task of proparing a detailed state- ment of the financial condition of the city is atill at work, but some delay is caused by the time needed for the county and city treasurers to com- pare their books and settle their ac- counts. ‘The report will probably be completed this week, and will serve as a basis for the council to decide as to what policy to pursue concerning ac- counts now pending. A complete list of all unfinished contracts is also being prepared as an- other enlightener. ———— A BLOCKED GAME. The Peculiar Changes of Venue Meet ‘With a Check by Judge Aylesworth, A short time ago Tur Bee called attention to the peculiarities attond- ing changes of veuue, and cited as an instance the ~ares of the young men charged with raising a row at Ander- son's saloon, The young men were brought before Justice Abbott and sought a change of venue by filing an affidavit claiming that he, as well a8 Justice Baird, were prejudiced. The state, represinted by Attorney Lindt, subpawnwd J. J, Frainey as a witness, and, as has been custcmary, Justice Abbott, instead of sending the case to Frainey as the defendants de- sired and expected, he being the next nearest justice, sent it to Justice Burke. Yasterday afternoon the matter was brought before Judge Aylesworth, to whom has fallen Juostice Burke's dockets, Attorneys Burke and Lindt argued the matter at length,and Judge Aylesworth decided that the cares were not properly in his ' jurisdiction and sent the papers back to Justice Abbott, Judge Aylesworth held that the theory of the law of the state was that the state should be willing to try its cases before any of its tribunals having jurisdiction, and that the law did not provide for the state having any voice in the change of venues, If the defendant in this cnge had included in their affidavit that Trainey was a material witness the cases could not have been sent to him, but the fact that the state had subpwnwd Trainey, did not cut any figure, intimating that the cases should have been sent to him, It has been the practice here for the rosecution to subpmna justices as witnosses to keep them from trying the cases, and in most of these cases the J’umou subpaenaed never are oalled on to testify and if they should be would be found to know nothing about the case on trial. Judge Ayles- worth's decision not to hear the cases 18 an important one, as it is the first check which has been put to this mode of procedure here, e Walting for Welghts. Several puzzling questions have been raised concerning the city scales, The scales have been handed down from one weighmaster to another, oach purchasing them of his prede- cessor at §300, the council, except in the last case, guaranteeing against any loss, and thus foreing each sue- Cedar Rrapids’ Correspondent Chicago Tribune. The network of railroads in Towa is getting to be the most systemati- cally arcanged of any in the Union, The great east and west through lines that form the warp and are crossed by the woof of numerous north and south lines have a young though giant competitor in the new Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul through line. It has not yet reached the summit of its ambition, nor its western terminus, but the coming summer will see all things in reaainess for through busi- ness. In an interview with one of the officials recently, some valuable information resulted. Through trains are now running from this point to Cambridge, 165 miles west, and it is believed that passenger trains wall be running to Coon Rapids, 167 miles west, within the next thirty days The following is a list of stations on the new line, with their distance from Marion in even numbers: Louisa, three miles; Covington, nine; Atkins, fourteen; Newhall, twenty; Vanhorns, twenty-six; Keystone, thirty-two; Elborne, thirty-eight; Vining, forty-two; Gladstone, forty- nine; Tama City, fifty-three; Potter, tifty-nine; Dunbar, sixty-four; Fer- queon, sixty-nine; Haverhill, seven- ty-four; Melbourne, ° eighty-one; Rhodes (formerly an island” town named Edenville), eighty-six; Collins, ninety-three; Maxwell (formerly Towa Centre), ninety-eight; Cambridge, 106; Huxley, 110: Pascon (not yet located); Madrid (formerly Swede's point), 120; Colton, 128; Perry, 137; Vannest, 148; Bagley, 154; Baird, 161; Coon Rapids, 167; Dedham,176. Then comes a strip along which no stations have yet breen located, The next is Defiauce, 207; Marathon, 213; Panama, 218; Portsmouth, 224; Per- sia, 230; Yorkshire, 234; Nealo, 240; Underwood, 245; Weston, 250; Coun- cil Blutfs, 262, Thirty miles of the road in the vi- cinity of Neolo is all ready for busi- ness as soon as the line is completed to it from Coon Rapids, and it is be- lieved the line will be fully finished byJuly 6. The telegraph lines are up as {u‘ weat as Madrid, 120 miles. At Coon Rapids there have been found splendid gravel-beds, which will make the work of ballasting com- paratively easy. They have hada rock-crusher at work at Stone City for some time, which crushed 100 cars of rock per day, and much track has been ballasted with that. The track is in excellent condition, and the rails are the finest Bessemer. The 8 ations are provided with nicely built and commodious passenger de- Ewtll and freight houses, and the plat orms are 470 feet in length at each station, and substantially built. This indicates that the compauy are not calculuting on a few days’ or weeks' business only, but for some consid- erable time. Each station is also pro- vided with adwelling for the section toremsn, 8o that he may have a com- fortable home. The base of supplies will be removed at vnce from Marion to Perry. The work has progressed very finely, and the open wintor has been of great value to the company. They will probably build the Ot- tumwa extension this summer if proper arrangements at this point can be made, and the only difficulty seems to be with the people here, who can- not get down to right of way, etc. The line is very badly needed, indeed, and would be a magnificent thing for central Towa, The amount of business done by the company on the completed por- tion of the extension, both freight and passenger, is really surprising, and indicates quite clearly that, while the ronds are getting pretty thick in Towa, thore’s room for one more Postoffice Changes in Towa during the week ending Valley View, Harmon county, Chas.

Prospect of a Fight with the Northern Savages, Butte 'nter Mou tain, Several days ago, it will be remem bered, news was received that Sheriff Healy, in au attempt to capturs some Indian horse thieves, had himself been taken prisoner. The situation of affuirs has greatly alarmed the resi- dentas in the northern part of the ter- ritory. As Healy has some bitter enemies among the savages, it is feared he will be killed and that a bloody campaign against hismurderers will be the result, Active efforts are being made for the release of the im- prisoned officer. A dispatch from Fort Assinaboine, dated Thursday, the 9th inst,, contains the following infor. mation: - “A large force, consisting of six companies of the Eighteenth infantry vnd two companies of the Second cay- alry, with Captain Kline, of the Eighteenth, in command, is now moy- ing down Milk river with orders from General Ruger to assist Deputy United States Marshal Healy and to drive all foreign Indians and half breeds across the line, A vigorous policy has been determined upon. Only a few of us are left at the post; the majority are camping on the trail.” Col. illuua, the noted Indian fighter, has also gone to the front from Helena, leaving the capital on Thursday after- noon. His recent promotion makes him lieutenant colonel of theEighteenth infantry, and his intention is to join and take command of the troops already in pursuit of the Urees. If the Indians show fight or have killed Healy or his friends, hvely work may be expected, for Tlges means business and is abundantly able to inflict due punishment on the reds, who enter- tuin & wholesome fear of his military skill and bravery. Important news is expected in a few days. P AT IOWA ITEMS. LeMars will invest $6,000 in a new schoolhouse. Dubuque city paid last year for gas over $13,000, and for water nearly $10,000. Will H.
