HE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS. Entertainment Which Tonight's Oonnoil Meeting Promises Those Who Attend. OFFICES AND CANDIDATES FOR THEM. Much Interest In the Choice of a Fife Chief and a Deputy City Clerk ~Other Matters of Inter The city council will meet this evening. Considerable interest has been excited among the citizens in regard to this meeting, from the fact that tonight is the time which is fixed by law for the election of street com- | missioner and chief of the fire department It is probable there will also bean attempt made to clect a deputy city clerk There is a great deal of uncertainty con- nected with the resnlts of the election, and no one would like t look through the dim- ness of the next twenty-four h what is going to be done than the candidates for the position of chief of the fire depart- ment. The contest has practically nar- rowed itself down to one be tween two men, Oliver Hague, and Frank Leviu, the present chief. Levin thinks his chances are as good as any one’s, but he does mot believe a majority of the councilmen are pledged to support any one in particular. It is stated that four of the al. dermen have agreed to vote for Levin, though none of them have given him any pledge that they would stand by hir to the’ bitter end. James Brad jan of the fire de- partment was in ¢ arly m the season when there was sor of raising the sal- ary to $100 per mogth, but when it was de- cided that there would be no chunge in the salary he came to the conclusion that he did not want to give uphis present §0 job for one where the responsibility and work are much greater and the pay only a trige over half as fuch more An attempt will probably be made to elect a deputy city clerk, but Mr. Stephenson states that he will o be the one to spriu © subject on the councii. He proposed tho ame of his son as his deputy at the last wular meeting of the i was not ratified. Since that time the matter has been allowea to rest. Mr. Stephenson states that he has examined the ordinances, and he is convinced thal they will allow him to select his deputy himself, aud that the council has no right to refuse to ratify his choice except for cause. He is under honds to the city to the amount of £15,000 for the corre discharge of his own duties and those of his deputy, and under the cireumstances he thinks he ought to have the right to say who that deputy shall be. On the other hand, it is stated that some of the members of the council have friends whom they want to appoint, and they stand ready to oppose any choice that the clerk may make, unless the candidate may be of their own choosing. Itis not likely there will be any election until the dead-lock is broken and the clerk -and the members of the council come to a satisfactory undepstanding. Alderman Wood has resurrected a scheme which comes to light about, once a year, and SOME BIG FARO. Called the Turn on a Safe Key Uehind Which was $32,000 “The business and sporting life of the ploneers on the golden shores and in the ‘glorious c¢limate of California’ wasa feverish one,” aays General William Humphreys, an old pioneer, in the St Louis Globe- Democrat. 0 the 40ers the oldest things of the effete east had possed away and all things had become | new, Tt wis not an unusual thing at | Billy Owens’ place to see n man walk in and lay down a cortificate of deposit for £10,000 on the ace,havinz first asked the banker to cover his bet.

The dealer’s side partner filled out a check, while the game went on.” “Billy Owens and Judge Jones were as close as the Siamese twins toeach other. The bond that bound them was a friend- ship that only ended with the life of Judge Jones, who died with his boots on in his own faro bank, killed by a cowboy who got the dvop on bim in a fight over « disputed bet. One night in May, when the game ‘run light,’ s gamblers say, and Judge Jones had played in a good streak of luck for a month, Billy Owens, flushed with ‘Old Otard,” came back to the faro lay-out from his sumptuous pal- ace of gin and sin. Walking up to his chum he said hesaid: ‘Judge Jones, this is a mighty mean game with these hundred-dollar pikers around the board.

An investigation was made. n the mean time a large crowd had gath- ered, in the hope of seeing a veal live suicide. Sure enough, the mun was there, lying stretched out at full length on the roof of the shed, and the crowd watched every movement of the officer with the most fever- ish intcrest as he scaled the side of the building. The look of feverish interst changed to_one of horror a moment later, when the officer struck the prostrate object a sounding blow on its feet, accompanied with a rather sulphurous exhortation to get up and out of that. Thelook of horror gave way in turn to oue of profound disgust, when the supposed suicide aroso with a sheepish face and looked sleepily around him at the crowd that had evidently gathered for his benefit. It was found that the young man who had caused all the excitement was Jasper Smiley, a stable hand. He had gone to the top of the shed to survey the beauties of the Sabbath morniug, and while thus engaged ho had fallen asleep, His coat was lined with red flannel, aud_ s the morning breezes toyed with it the flauncl was displayed on each side of his neck, resembling very closely u large, voluptuous torrent of red bicod. The crowd dispersed without delay, and five minutes later not one could be found who would ad- mit that be had ever been taken in by a sui- cide or anybody else. ——— The finest display of onyx fast black hosiery is to be found at the Boston store, Council Bluffs, this week.

An interesting series of articles has just boen concluded in the New York Sunon Lin- coln as a General. Under the initials of J. H. W., the identity of the anthor of the pa- pers is disguised. But asignificant thing in connection with this aiscussion isthe fact that the views therein expressed are prob- ably in accord with those of Baitor-in-Chief Dana, whom it will be remembered was as- sistant secretary of war during the civil war. These conclusions were drawn in the closing paper: 1t is not to be contended that Lincoln, whose duties asjiead of the govern - ment necessarially confined him to the con- trol of its military p olicy, and as commander- in-chief of the army and navy to the consid_ eration of questions of satrtegy, or the gen. eral direction of campaigns, had ever ac- quired a kuowledge of tactics. While it is indubitable that he sought to control the combination of masses and their dive ction upon the vital points of the confedera against its principal armies, and in this great branch of the military art developed a highor degree of skill than any of his generals, it was manifestly out of his proviuce to manceuvre the national forces in the presenco of the enemy, What would have been his success had he done this must always remain & matter of conjecture; but considering his moaesty, his perfect self-re- liance, his foresight, his wisdom, his wary and crafty nature and, above all, his unshak- able resolution, itis not to be supposed that he would have made a failure as a tacti He resembled Lee in many of his loftier attributes o character, and was his equal, 1f not his superior, iu such as are possessed in common by all leaders of men. With the same mili- tary education and experience there can be seurcely a doubt that he would have equalleq, if he had not surpasssed, the fore- most soldier of his time. Of course he knew but littie of logistics or the actails of organizing, supplying snd moving armies, but these are the purely technical branches of the busiuess that ml{ well instructed offi- cer can manage, and which were managed with extraordinary ability in our armies: thus they were clearly beyond his sphere of duty, and may be neglected in an estimate of his place in history @s a military man. The Work of Nicolay and Hay contaius many dis- patches, letters and docuwments, and man; teresting chapters, such as those relating to the “Trent affair’’ and to the rebel cruisers, andalso to the able administration of the navy by Mr. Welles and his subordinates, throwing light upon Lingolun’s extraordinary character as the head of the government in a igreat military crisis; but, to comment fully Uipon them would require volume, Noone can read them dispassionately without reach- ing the conclusion that Lincoln was not only a great stateswan, butin & larger sense @ great general, and & great administrator, the Freatest that this country ever produced, with the possivle exception of Washington alone. The policy and plansadvocated by him will bear the closest and moesy critical scrutiny. 1t has been shown that sueh of them as w fairly tried were successful, and it must al- ways remain & matter-of profound regret that upon at least two supreme occasions in the country’s history bis urgent commands were neglected or disobeyed. There is no in- mitted to have his way the enemy would have been vigorously attackea immediately after the battle of Antietam and the battle of Gettysburg, and that the chances were y in favor of conclusive victory in both cases. Finally, in the words of Ralph Waldo Em- erson, quoted by our authors, it is truly said “He grrew according to the need; his mind masteved the problem of ' the day, and as the problem grew so did bis comprehension of it. It can- not be said there is any exaggeration of his worth. If evera man was fairly tested he was.
