Rl The Sunday School Convention, One of the richest and most beneficial Sunday school conventions ever held in Pot- tawattamie county came to a close last even- ing after a two days' session.

Bailey, of Shenandoah, assist- ant editorof the lowa Sunday School Worker, Samuel Burns, of Omaha, and E. B. Steven- son, assistant superintendent of the American Sunday School Union for the northwestern district, were also prosent, adding largely to the success of the convention, Samuel Burns', of Omaha, address on “What I saw in_Europe” was bountiful of good things, and his anccdotes kept the audi- ence in a very good mood for over an hour. Mrs. M. M. Bailey, in her address on the “Essentials of good teaching,” was a mas- terly effort and full of practical hints to Sabbath school teachers, addressed by 'y, who held }lu,fludll'lu\' spell-bound for an hour and a half, Among the most interesting cussed were the following: he needs of our county and how to meet,” by Rev. Dr. Cooley and othel topics dis- “The use and abuse of lesson helps,” by 5. Alexander, of Gamer township. “The importance of teachers' meetings, and ho to eonduct them,” by Rev. D Phelps, and a very interesting paper by Mrs Dr. X\Iunu.nnwr\' on “Sabbath Desecration,” The following resolutions were also n\lopu:\l and ordered brinted in the city paper: Resolyed, That the thanks of thi nven- tion be heartily tendered to the ofticers of the Cougregational church, for the use of their house of worship during the sessions of this convention; to the various citizens of this , who huve opened their homes, in a gen- ls hospitality, to the delegates to this con- vention from other parts of the county; to Mrs. M, M. Bailey, of Shenaudoah, for her ¢ with us und for her wise words of counsel, of inspiration and of cheer; to Mr. E. B. Stevenson, of Chicago, for his excel lent suggestions to the couvention, and for his most energetic work, throughout the county, during the last few weeks: to Mr. Samuel Bugns, of Omaha, for the inspira- tion, instruction, as well as enjoyment, af- forded by his able presentation of the Sab- bath school work of Europe, as he saw it in a recent tour ; and to the préss of this city, for the interest taken by them in announcing this convention andin reporting its proceed- in fh olved, That we also hereby recognize, and with gratitude, the unwearying labor of the presiding oficer of the convention, Rev. D. M. Helmick, who in this position, has con- tributed so much to its success; Alsn of the secretary and treasurer, Dr, J. Montgom- ery, who, in the midst of his busy profes- sional life, has found time to serve the asso- ciation, so ably, in the duties of his double office; and of the committee on entertain- ment, who have been the means of opening the homes of Council Bluffs to the wmembers of the convention. Resolved, That we pronounce this conven- tion a success, in points of interest, instruction and umpulse for work, from which we look for many divinely-given results during the comin% yoar. tesolved, That we recognize, with hearty oommendmwn, the labor of our very devoted aud efficient county Sabbath school mission- ary, Mr. Joseph lls, who has, awong other rosnlts, reported to us the organizatiom, Iv,V himself, of twenty new schools, many them in very destitute local 4 nnuun,\. and in to which he has gathered 700 children § also that he has visited and otherwise aided 25 other schools, and distributed a large number of bibles and other religious books and papers, We are grateful to the Ameri can Sunday School Union for commissioning Mr. Wells to this work in our count, Resolved, That as a_convention we deplore the prevalence of Sabbath desecration, as it has been reported to us from various parts of the courty, Itisto be condemned, in all its forms; but our uttention has been particu- larly called to it in that of the Sunday game of base ball: We earnestly place ourselyes on record against this as sinful and harmful, and a practice from which all law-abiding and order-loving people ought to stand aloof, Resolved, T lm! we recognize the needs of our county for Sabbath hool work as very great; that we feel a deep interest, not only for the 4,000 children eathered into our eighty schools, but also for the 13,000 chil- dren in the county who are not in the Sab- bath schools, and for the ten millions of children in our land who are without Sab bath sn'imnl instruction. «d, That we are grateful to God for raging condition of the Sab- huh schools of the county, as reported, and we will go down from - J.

Work was commenced yesterday morning laying the brick on Willow avenue. During the day spectators were quite numerous and a variety of opinions were expressed as to the ultimate su ccess of the experiment. Iv was unanimously hoped that brick paving would prove a success here, but there were many doubting Thomases. Some feared the results of water and frost, others thought the brick! 0 soft to stand the pounding of sharpened calks, and still others thought the foundation improperly prnpuml for making the experiment a success, A few were found who believed the paving would prove asuccess, The foundation has been very efully’ prepared, consisting of a heavy of cinders thoroughly rolled and cov- 1 with several s of fine and coarse each down with a heavy cks are laid in two courses, and the top course on ed They are laid loosely and the space betwes them filled with fine gravel.

This case was brought to hold defendant for the puyment of a fine imposed upon George L. Smith while oceupying a building belonging to the defendant.

The reason given by the legal lights for this belief is that the ex- clusive franchise clause in the charter can- not be made to stick. Said one of the mem- bers of a well known firm: “Circumstance of course, have a great deal to do with such cases, but it is generally understood that all legislation is against exclusive tranchises, as they ¢ a tendency to monopoly, by pre- venting healthy competition. If a company was induced to locate a plant or engage in business of some kind that would not pay at the start, but would make up for it in after years, an exclusive franchise clause would probably hold, as that would be the sole ducement rs of good paying business from the start, it would be hard to ke the ex usive franchise hold wuter. he gas company here always paid a very fair dividend, and it is'entiticd to no especial protection at the hands of the courts, and would fi if its case was presemed. ifcan and_ought to grant another el immediately.” RS andlots for sale on ments by %11 Sheafe & Co., ¢ and Main ss., up-stairs.

The attention of Mr. Farmworth and other wzens on William avenus is called to the pile of torn up cedar or cypres bloeks at the crossing of Madison anl Pierce streets. These blocks have been laid a little over a year and show decay on every one, and at such a rate that the paving from which they were taken cannot last nore than two years longer, perhaps not that. These gentlemen will much regret_hereafter, if they succeed in having the change made from brick to wood, even if there is doubt of the dura- bility'of brick pavement. The experiment shouild bo made, that our paople may know which pavement is_the best. It isa great pity that Wickham Bros. did not pave Wil- low avenue carly in the sea that the test could have been made this 3 We v ture the prediction that after th ment is laid and tested by three months' traveland use, that there never will be an- other street in Council Biuffs paved with wood.

L A Free Ballot, and a Fair Count. The democratic primaries were held in the various wards last evening. In the second and fourth wards the fight was a warm one between the county clerk factions, and in the “blood fourth” especially, it was red hot. The box was filled to overflowing, as *‘stuf- fing” was the order of the evening, there being as many as fifteen ballots rolled up in wals when the votes were counted, The motto seemea to be “everything gos,” and it did go, in spite of vigorous ki:king. J. M. Shea coutrols the greater part of the delega- tions. They are ns follows: First Ward—Delegates, Jesse Walters, Rudio, John Dunn, R, m, R.

The new company has virtually been in possession of the line for some time, bat the formal transfer was not made until last night. Tue Bee stated several weeks ago that negotiations to this effect were in progress, but neitherof the interested parties saw fit to acknowledge it until now. The change, when fully completed, will be a vast improvement over the present system, and do away with the reckless mule driving seen upon our streets for months past, The electric motor company is fast getting its line in readiness for operation, and it will be but a very short time until borse cars are a thing of the past, and the electric current will furnish our means of rapid transit.
