The Ereotion of the Union Dapot is Assured. THE POLITICAL POT SIMMERS. The Veteran Fighters' Amateur Theatricals—The Couns cil's Special Sessic eral and Personal re All Obstacles Are Overcom®, Next Tuesday the union depot guestion is to be determined. At the time of the meet- ing of the union depot committee with tho representatives of the various roads in Omaha six weeks ago, at which the Burling- ton, Union Pacific, Wabash and Northwest- ern roads were represented, these companies all expressed themselves as favoring the schemo, but it was mpossible to take any definite action until the Milwaukee and Rock Island roads were also willing to take part. This they are now ready to do, and the his< tory of the procerdings that have led to this change is best told by Hon. W. H. M. Pusey, who has played an important part in the ne gotiations of the past fow weeks. Smd that gentloman : “Eyorything has been done since the meeting_ six weeks ago. The Milwaukee and Rock Island ere unwilling to enter into any agroement with the Union Pacificand the other roads as they were inclined to feel somewhat so ver the Union Pacific and Northwestern combiue, and were disposed to hold out against any- thing that would tend to benefit the other roads. The other companies had all made arrangements for getting into Omaha, and they were shut out in tho cold. They wero naturally very anxious to get across tho river, and that was the main object they had in view, The Union Pacific would lev them over their bridge, but the terms were an. thing but_satisfactor, Finally they said, ‘we'll build a bridge,” and a bill was intro- duced 1n congress. 1t passed the senate, but it was sidetracked in tho house, It was referred to a committee, and there it was held by Couucil Bluffs folks. Unless this city was willing, the bill would never have gone through. Wo saw Mr. Cable, president of tho Rock Island road, and we finally maae a contract to_the effect that 1f the opposition was rewoved aud the bill was passed the Rock 1sland would enter into the unior. depot plan and become the aggressive party to secure its erection. I went on to Washington and the bill was passed. That gives the Rock Islana & way to get over the river. However, 1 don't think that will build the bridge. If the Pacific 18 allowed to discontinue its dummy trains the Union Pacific bridge is all that is necessary to accommodate all the rouds. ‘There is no necessity for another bridge, but, now ti the charter is secured the Rock ls- land can use it a8 a club to get the use of the present bridge on favorable terms. This, I am positive will be done, und then that part of tne question will be settled. “*This city virtually secures for the Rock Island a right of way over the river, and they are now bound to come in aud belp us build the union depot. All of the roads will be represented at the meeting to bo held in Omwaha next Tuesday, and I am confldent that steps will be taken to begin work at once. Itisn't going to require the roads to put up any money to erect the structure. It will be bonded snd the roads will ne- gotiate the bonds, The Union Depot com- pany here will either turn over the site at cost or will take stock to that amount in the new company. Of coursc the depot ism't built yet, and we mustn’t ceow uatil we are out of the woods, butitis certan that the plan is in a more promising condition today than it haus ever been before, and 1 believe that the erection of the structure is at last assured. We are ina position to demand its erec- tion. The town that has done so much for tho roads has a perfect right to ask this in return, and it is to the interest of the roads to grant it. The imwmense business here cannot be satisfactorjly bandled in any other manner. Council Bluffs has become such aa 1mportant railroaa center that it is imperative for the roads to meet in a union depot.”” “‘Won't the other roads fecel that they ought to be granted a remission of tax»s or something of tho kind, inasmuch as the city has made such a concession in favor of the Union Pamfici” *No sir, 1 don’t think so.’ “How about another tax similar to that voted for the motor compuny 1’ “Tnere won't be anything of the kind. The roads will probably want the city’s co- operation in securing the condemnation of property 8o that they cau all get into the new depot, but I don't think any more will be asked in the way of-subscriptions. The committee bas worked hard and nas secured the site and that is all that should be asked, 1am firmly convinced that all the prelim- naries have now been settled, and that the meeting next Thursday will discuss niethoils and plans of getting to work immediately. ————— ‘Wall paper at popular prices at the Boston Store, Council Bluffs. e Study economy and save money by buying your wall paper ut the Boston Store, Coun- cil Bluffs. et e All new styles wall paper at the Boston Store, Council Bluffs.

Council Bluffs Fiel Co. ey The Political Outlook, “‘What is the meaning of Wadsworth’s de- clination ' was the question that was proba- bly asked oftener than any other attne Jlaces of public resort yesterday, It was caused by the appearance in the morning papers of a card trom S. B. Wadsworth, thaoking his friends for the interest they had shown in him, but refusing to any longer entertain any thoughts of being a candidate for the mayoralty. Inasmuch as he has all along expressed a desite to be thedemo- cratic nominee and his candidacy has met with general approval, his sudden action in the opposite direction naturally excites com- t, and the whys and wherefores that might bave led to i @_the all absorbing subjects of discussion, It ia the prevailing belief that pressure of some kind was brought to Imlr. but just the nature of it 18 thus far 8 mystery. “Why, i political move, of course,” declared an anti-James democrat, *but I can't see tha necessity for it. Wadswortn would undoubtedly have been the demo- cratic nominee, In thaicase, the republi- cans are_ reported to have said that they would endorse the nomination, I am in- clined to think that thut very statement was what caused the trouble. The ieaders of the old time ring were rather suspicious that something was in the wind, and were afraid to put up a man who would receive the re- ublican endorsement, ‘Chey thought there was some little scheme on foot, and as they could not find vut what it was, their only show seemed to be to kill off Wadsworth, This was done, as nearly us I can find out, through his partners. ‘T'hey wero to repre~ sent that his candidacy would injure the business, and they kicked 8o vigorously that he had to withdraw. He represents the Lombard Investment company, and it 1s very vosaiblo that they aleo pulled’ the string ut neadquarters.” Another theory is that Mr, Wadsworth has been induced to pull away from the demo:ratic convention, and will come before the citizens' convention to head their ticket, There is no doubt but that he could be elected as suck, but the idea that such is his intention is not generally accented. The demceratic primaries will be held tois evening, and there will be a lively time in the Second ward. Dr. F. P, Bellinger is a candidate for another term as alderman, but the Globe and Alderman Lacy aro after hun with & sharpencd stick. It 1s stated that he has been unduly obstreperous whon the leaders of the ring b tried to thrash him iuto line, and has been. altogether oo inde- pendent in his* actious to bo ullowed unotuor term if the ring can possibly kufimm out. It is said he opposes giving the Globe the city printiug, and that is of course sufficient 1o make the u- ornn drop im like potato. ‘J him ~ because I.am the lulwm.x:w'm.n be mun makes m:ubonu bitter Al swond ward, Iluonn hinted Position will go 80 far as to work op- L) quxfz way for the republican nomince rather than allow Beliinger to go in again.
