Mr. Sheward is an editorof some prom- inence on the coast, where he owns and edits a weekly paper. In the early days of Coun- cil Bluffs he was also an editor, and being a man of a good deal of nerve and numerous opinions tie frequently enjoyed breezy times, He estimates that he stillhas a dozen ropes which were procured to hang him and su small armory of pistols and guns were with the intention of sending their contents into lis body at the most convenient place. He clited the Bugle, a'weekly paper pub. lished here during the war. 1t was owned by Colonel W. Babbit, who was a Seymour democrat. Sheward was no content with as mild appellation of his political views and anuounced himself a rank copperhead.” The frank announce- ment and the fearless opinions expressed in ev issue of the Bugle made it very inter- esting for the editor during the war times, On one occasion, when he was living in one of the little glens, which ne thinks is now Glen avenue, tie was visited late at night by a band of masked men. In the dim light they appeared to thenumbera hundred or more and Sheward noticed that each of them carried a rope. They ordered him to come out and be hung by the neck until he was dead, or as a compromise_to pull on his clothes and leave the town within fifteen minutes, Sheward says he recollects that it was not agoodnight for being hung and was a still worse one to be driven out of town, and he concluded that lie would not. consent’ to either proposition, He announced it over the muzzle of an old re- volver that had not been fived for years, and the crowd thonght that he might hurt somebody and they left. Sheward says he found ropes enough lying around on the ground the next morning to supply his wife with clothes lines for a year. The fact concerning the, city which Mr, Sheward is particulurly proud of is his con- nection with the movement that was started in 1865 to remove the capital of the United States to the Mississippl valley. He claims the honor of beiug the fiist person to suggest the scheme, and liko everything else he at- tempted ho'tried to make'a success of it. Ho secured the nomination of Colonel Babbit for the legislatureand worked successfully for lis election, As soon as Babbitt got into his seat he introduced a bill that Sheward had prepared recommending the calling of state couventions to urge the removal of the na- tional capital to Council Bluffs on account of the central location and the security that could be insured from foreign attacks. The bill passed both houses, and hid a great deal of effect. Several states called conventions in accordance with the recommendations and memorialized congress on the subject, and Council Bluffs was known all over the land. The city commenced to boom from that time and has kept it up to such an exteat that Mr, Sheward scarcely recognizes an old land- mark. Mr. Sheward accompanied by his son, and the two ure thinking of relocaling here. —_— at straight 5 per cent per L. 8.

Kierstead, who has just re- turned from a ten days’ trip to Indianapolis, Columbus and Cleveland, in conversation with u reporter for Tie BEE concerning his trip, said that none of the cities named had such clean, wide, well paved streets s Omaha. While Indianapolis aud Columbus are not so large, Cleveland is much larger than Omaha, and he theught the three were good cities to draw comparisons with. ““The first impression of Indianapolis to a stranger,” said Mr. Kierstead, “is being landed in & magnificent union depot, but a ride of & few hours through the town con- vinces him that there is alack of pushso noticable in Omaha and Denvei. The two or three principle strcets aw paved with asphalt, the balance with wood. which has a worn and dirty appearance. The street cars are run mostly by electricity, but horses are still used on a few of the side streets. The city is nearly level and aside from the capi- tol, court house and depot, there is nothing of interest to see, ““From Indianapolis a ride of seven hours through a rich level farming country brings one to Columbus, probably the best paved city in the country except Omaha. They have entirely discarded wood pave- mentand use nothiig but granite, brick and usphalt.
