On Saturday Mr. Sam Rodda, of the firm of Eiseman, Rodda & Co., celebrated his birthday, and the clerks expressed thelr good will by the presentation of a handsome tea-set, Charles Morrls making the necossary speech with good taste. Mr. Rodda was too greatly taken aback by the surprise to rally his oratory more than enough to say a hearty ‘“‘thank you.” This evening the Barbour dramatic . company open at the dime museum, and will probably romaln several weeks, as they have in other places succeeded in drawing delighted crowds for many suc- cesslve nights. To-night they present that populsr play, ‘‘Biack Diamonds,” oand from the press notices given them elsewhere the public may expect to have one of the best entertalnments ever given for such a nominal sum, Readers of the Bee will find {nforma- tlon of Interest to themselves in the advertizement of Eiseman, Rodda & Co, which appears in this {ssue. This firm has a well-earned reputation as well as a stock of Immense proportions, and per- sons wishing anything in thelr line would do well to give them a call and gee for themselves, Their maillog department is one of the best conducted departments in the establishment, as to system, and #ny oue at a distance wishing to deal with this house will find them prompt and attentive to all correspondence. e SRS Substantlal abstracts of titles and real estate loans, J, W, & E, L, Squlre, 1 0 Poarl street. ——— Real Estate Transfers, The following are the transfers of real estate as recorded In the office of the registrar, and reported to the Brp by A.

The Mayor and Aldermen 81l Fightiog Over Fractions, A Bid for the Workingmen, Ther olty council held a special meeting Saturday evening, on call of the mayor, for the avowed parpose of consldering the veto of the resolution under which the councll bad preceeded to the election of the city officers, When the councll had gatherod they learned to their sur. prise that the mayor was not ready to have them conslder the veto, but had prepured two others, and wanted more time to amend his veto of the elestion of officers The following were the vetoes which he thus sprang-on them instead of the veto filed some days ago: To the honorable common counell of Council Blaffs--Gentlemen:—I return to you herewith the resolutlon cffered by Alderman Siedentopf, with an amend- ment of Alderman Shugart, and passed by your honorablo body May 11th, 1885, sald resolution being hereto attached. I am opposed to sald resolutlon because It {s In violation of an ordinance that estab- lishes the office of street commissioner. This office must be repealed by an ordi- nance. The resolution also grants the right to aldermen of each ward to employ a man who shall have charge of the ‘‘ward work” at the cost of two dollars per day, or a total of elght dollars a day. Thus it will be seen that It will not be economy to dismiss the street commlissloner, whose pay is §3 a day, for sub-street commls- sioners at $8 a day. Ido therofore veto this resolution, and refer the same to this body, hoping that you will use more cau- tlon, and less haste in covering defects, and that you will not try again to vitlate an ordinance by a resolution. Respect- rally submilted, ete.” The other vote was against the ordi- nance recently passed requiring that dirt haulers should use tight wagon boxes, so that the dirt would not rattle off, and drop onto streets over which they passed. In vetolng this, the mayor says: *‘Sald ordinance was drawn and Introduced at the instancs and npon the order of Al- derman Shugart. I am opposed to this ordinance, because it will work a hard. ship on our dirt haulers, as it requires the wagon bodies to be perfectly tight. This would necessitate the purchase of new wagon bodles, require more time to unload the dirt, and force the teamster to haul a lighter losd, as his wagon body will be heavy, and also it designates within an fnch how fall the wagon shall be. For a vlolation of the ordinanee the teamster is guilty of a misdemeanor, and he may be fined $20 for each offense. The acts prohibited are not criminal in their nature, but by the terms of the ordinance 1t 1s made a misdemeanor, aund a lawfal but transient traveler might Innocently be made amenable to the same, and as an ordinance to be valid must be reasonable and conslstent with the laws and policy of the state, and must not be unequal, oppresslve, or vexatious; therefore, in my judgment, this ordinance Is illegal, against public policy, fn restraint of labor, and undemocratic, and canbenefit no one but those who deal In wagons, and there 1s an ordinance regulating the haullng of dirt, passed in Juue, 1884, thatin my judgment is snfficlently strong to protect the city’s Intereste, I do therefore re- turn the ordinance, etc.” There was considerable sparring over these vetoes. The motlon to carry the ance over the head of the mayor was carried by a vote of four to two, Ald. Mynster and Gelse alone supporting the mayor’s veto. There belng two-thirds of the council thus in favor of the vetoed resolution and ordinance, it was inslsted that the veto was vold, but the mayor olaimed that it required a two-thirds ma- jority —whatever] that is—and when an appeal was made from this declslon, he declared all appesls out of order., This high handed way of running the whole business was galling to the aldermen, but there was nothing to do but gubmit, and walt for some future action to bring the mayor to his genses. TThero was one equare slt down on the mayor, however. 1t was apparently his desfrs to make a little political capitsl for himself among the working man ard dirt haulers, and In doing so there was a chance to try to put Alderman Shugart in the posltion of belng responsible for the obnoxious ordmance, In his veto this crops out by an intlmation that Al- derman Shugart, being engaged in salllng farm wagons, had some geltish motive in getting this ordinance passed, and the veto puts the aldermen In the positlon of father of the ordinance, whereas, the appear that the ordinance agreed upon in the mittee of the whole, animously, and pawsed in a llke manner, all the members voting for It, and that Ald. Mynster was quite prominent in the preparation and psessge of the ordinance, At least, the couucll at this meeting passed s resolution declsring that Ald. Shugart was not the father of the dirt haulers’ ordinance, and even Ald. Geise voted for this resolution, Ald., Mynster being the only ene who opposed it. It seems therefsre, that If thls was a hard. ehip on the workingmen, that the whole council should bear the blame, instead of its being put on to one, The ¥EE man saw the mayor yesterday and asked him about the situstion. *‘Now, I notice,” sald the mayor, ‘‘that the Bee speaks of the veto power as be- ing some newly discovered toy, that I am just plsying with, The fact {s that I have had the veto power for more than a year, and before this [ have used it but once, and that was to keep the Union Paclfic from laylog sandstone Instead of granite for paving, and thus kept the clty from haviog inferlor paving. In re- gard to the city clerk, I have withdrawn my veto, slmply to amend it, for I want to state as an additlonsl reason for not wanting & change, that there a good many cases now pending In court, in which the clerk is an lmportant witness, and » change just now would be risky, sk he knows all about the records and the caros, 1 do not feel any ways hard t) any of the sldermen, but I want the clty's inferests protected,” * Why do you not leave this mstter of ‘s two-thirds msjorlty’ to srbitration, ad of urglng that it should be ad- judicated in court ¥’ I sm willlog to listen to any propo- sltion that the other slde would make, and yet this Is an lmportant matter, and the thing could not be seitled by an arbi- tration, It len't merely whether the present city clerk shall stay in office, but whether four wen shell have the power to 1un all the city sffalrs.” It was suggested to his honor that under hls own view three men, himself and two aldermen, could stop everything, and it seemed to be simply whether four men shonld have the ‘‘say,” or three men, and he went off thinking over the problem, B — “BATTLE OF THE KEGS.” Pointers in the Probibition Cases and Some Fresh Facts, What Judge Loothourow Says. In the courss of a personal letter from Judge Loofbourow to Mr., Jacob Sims, of this city, the following statement ia made in regard to the Carroll county cases: “Five applications for temporary in- junction were heard before me at Oarroll and tnjunctlons granted in four of them, and refused in one, on the ground solely that the facts shown in that case did not, in my judgement, justify the lssuing of the writ. No question was presented involving the constiutlonality of the law, but in two cases a plea was eet up that the bill containing the Injunction clauss had not passed the lower house of the legislature, and therefore was not a law, but this defense was not sustained. The newepapers have indulged in all sorts of roports, but the facts are as above stated,” This prop belng taken away, the saloon men found comfort and hope in a tele- gram from Muscatine, Towa, as follows: Judge French, of the cireult court, to- day rendered in writlng an Important declston bearing upon injunctlon proceed- ing under the state prohibitory law. French holds that the first injunction proceeding Instituted agalnst a saloon shall have priority over any other in- junction proceeding agalnst a saloon. 'his {s regarded as a great victory for the saloons, as sham Injunction proceedings have been Instituted by friends of the saloons agalnst nearly every saloon in Muscatine. The temperance alllance will appeal the cate to the supreme court, The Injanctlon cases started by the temperance alllanoe of this clty against six of the saloons, come up before Judge Oonnors at Glenwood, to-day. The de- fendants expect to galn a victory, on the same grounds as set forth In the above telegram, as they clalm that the Injunc- tlon cases brought before Judge Ajyles- worth, In the superior court here, were brought before the aix cases brought by the temperance alllance, and they will insist on these six cases belng dropped on the ground that these other cases have the priorty. It is understoed that the cases brought before Judge Aylesworth are brought in the Interests of the satoon men, in order to prevent other sults be- ing successfully carried on. This seems to be the policy of the attorneys for the ealoon men, and it seems to be the intention to keep these oases hang- Ing along 8o as to prevent other cases so longas possible. The decislon above glven s looked upon by them as strength~ ening their posltion, as ‘shown in this policy, and hence they start for Glen- wood to-dsy with high hopes of return- ing with victory perched upon their ban- ners. If they should chance to be disap- pointed in thls great will be the fall thereof, for they are quite confident, and feel that In thls sort of proceeding, by keeplng cases continually pending, they will be able to prevent the enforcement of the prohibltory la: —— Poor Old Lady! The Nonpareil devoted a lengthy and leading editorial Saturday moraing to trylng to advertlse the Bee. Small favors are thankfully recelved, and the Bee would not appear to be ungrateful to the Old Grandmother, but it cannot but remark that it has been &0 long slnce she wrote anything criginal for her acrap-book that she makes sad work of it. She naturally complalns that the scrap-book cannot get enough adver- tlaing to fill it, so that she has to devote seven columns to a free advertising of her own office. She blames the Bek for getting 8o much business while she is living on crusts, which are rather hard tor her failing teeth. The BEE Is sorry, but will have to continue to accommodate merchents, who want {to advertise, not for charlty's sake, but because it pays them, The Old Lady’gets a little mixed, but doubtless this is due to her dotage, for she says in one place that the Bee has so little circolation that everybody who pays for any space In it Is foollsh, and in a few llnes further on she claims that the Bee has so large a circalation that It draws all the trade from Council Blufts to Omsha. The BEE ls naturally proud of its haylog a larger circulation than cll the other papers of Omaha and this city combined, and as the Old Lady does not seem to be well posted as to what 1s a large circulation, she ought to look over the sworn statements of the Bee, which ls the only paper which dares to give its patrons the free chence to fn- spect the books for themeelves, and the only one which deres to publish its circu lation, under oath, L — OOMMEROIAL, COUNOIL BLUFFS MABKXT, Wheat—No, 1 milling, 70; Nc, 2, 0. 8, 60, COorn—New, 28c, Oats—For local purposes, 80c, g-y—&] 00 per ton; baled, 60, yo— (0o, Oorn Meal— 1,60 per 100 pounds, Wood—Good wupply; prioes st yards, €20 Coal—Dellvered, hard, 4,00 per ton Lard—Armour's, wholeaaling at 74 1 Flour—0ity Hour, 1.50@2.90, Brooms—1,76@8.00 per doz, LIVE STOOK, Oattle—Butcher cows 3.25@8.76, Butoher stoers, 8,76@4,00, Sheep—8,00@3,50, Hogs—3.60@3,75, PEODUCE AND Eggs—0)c.
