There Are a Few Alleys Which sadly Need Attention From the Doar: Health— Mr. amd Mrs. . Arthur's Silver Wedding. In spite of the strong attempts that are mado by the Manawa management to keep cverstbing objectionable out of sight of tneir patrons, ovce 1n awhilo soms overloaded in- dividual comes to tue front and raises enough of a disturbinco to remind people of what mightbe, Yesterday there was a case of this Kind ou the motor that reached the city about 4 0'clock, A gangof toughs boarded Lhe traia und tried 1o ride to the city for vothing. When the conductor came around for the faro they refused to pay, aud when he wanted to putthem off they refused again, s that the gung and tho conductor were at loggerbeads aimost throughout tho trip, Of- ficer Ballou of Manawa happened to be on who train, and he attempted to arvest the gang, but he could only get his hands on one wemoer, The rest ail decamped. William Murray was the name given avthe Council Blutfs Jail by the one unfortunate, and b wus tooked with disturbiug the peace. Clean Up the Alleys, “Why don't you piteh into somebody or something on accouat of the filthy condition the city is in?” said a real*®state man yes- terday. *Some of the places in the city that b used for depositing garbage are uothiug more nor less than breeding places for dis- euse, and 1f the Aslatic cholera comes this way'1C won’t huve muen trouble in getting footbold here, unless something is douo in tho meantime towards putting thiugs in proper shape.” ‘Thie real estate man was ot ertirely right and yet ther is a good deal of ground for his remarks, nerally speakiug, there 1s not a city of the sizo in tho west where more ut- tion is puid to eanitary conditions than in Council BLuffs, und the result of this cure is shown by tuo fact tnat it has the lowest death rate of any city in the state. Lho streets are mostly in goed condition, but sowe of the slleys would knock out a glue factory in ouo round.

Prof. Beiden's Balloon Ascension and Para- chute Drop attenaed by an Aceident. Several thousund peoplo v oout to Twonty-fourth and Ames avenue yesterday afternoon to see Prof. Beldew’s balloon as- cension and paruchute drop. They saw him drop, but the parachute didn’t have a chunce to ket In its work, and the professor’s buoysnt spirits were sadly purturbed when he came suddealy back to earth with a mournful plunk. He didu’t do it, however, with malice aforsthought, so the crowd’s disappointment cannot be prop- crly charged to his account. The professor’s intentions were all right, but his pluns miscarried because of an un- forescen accident, but for which he would undoubtedly bave carried out the pro- gram prepared by the strect railway com- pany in order to encourage Lr Tiwo motor poles had been erccted on a va- cant lot, and from a cross rope stretched be- tween them was suspended ‘the huge canvas bag during the process of inflution. Kach polo was held in position by guy ropes and 1o that fact is due the troubls that followed. When the restrainiug ropes that held the swaying balloon were cast loose ihe inflated monster 1:aped into the wir, And the professor weut with it, seated on a trapeze and smiling as com- placently as & girl in_the azins of her best malo fricnd. But smiles at best are but veg- otables, born to decay, and this one was even storter lived than the average, for before it had expanded to its fullest dismeter it lost its grip on the professor's face and pussed into history. But like republican success, there was a reason for it. An untoward lurch bad swung the trapeze toone sule beforc Lhe tops of the poles were clearad, and the ad- venturous acronsut caught uoder one of the guy ropes. Unfortunately, the balloon bad not been posted @3 to tha course itshould pursue in cases of this kind, und did noL stop for the professor to disengage bimseif, but with a ip and A tear, kicked ioose from wl restraint and solled sedatoly off into space. On the other hand, the professor, whose soariug ambition had all been squeezed out of bim under tho guy rope, sudly droppea from his perch and tumbled to terra firma 1n 8 shroud of dirty cauvas tied up with balf-inch rope. Down came pole, trapeze and parachute close bebind him. ‘I'he great crowd which had uttered @ sort of co-operative groan when the accident occurred snd had rushed forward to offer symopathetio assistance to the supposed badly lojured aeronaut, changud its wind when it saw the object of ts solicitude disengage bimsell from the wreek apparently uninjured, aud av once begun to kick in unmeasured terms and de- nounce bim as an aerial fakir aud bippo- dromer. ‘T'ue baloon, meanwhile, was indulgiog in & serios of gyrations and paroxysms, each of which threéw out puffs of smoky bot air, and aftor traveling & fow hundred yards to the vorthwest it totally collapsed and fell to tne ground 10ert and lifeless.

The camp was excited, thore is no doubt about it. Iiverybody was on the street, and everybody had an opinion to ex- pross. but notwithstanding all these ab- normal conditions the acting marshal of the camp was given the alternative of leaving the town within twelve hours by the stage or be sent across the range by the rope route. Could anything be more satisfactory or fuir to all parties? Such an incident of logical application of native jurisprudence at a trying mo- ment is without par ince Black- stone wrote and the Code Napoleon went into effect. [t is hardly necessary to state that the town wus ~dumfounded, bamboozled, peralyzed and senseless when both prop- ions were refused. The marshal i still in town, and the people are trying 1o recover from the shoclk. Two miners were desirous of setiling the timeworn grudge with nature’s weapons and were repairing to a sui Dble spot when the marshal stepped up and arrested one of them. He objected to the degredation tothe camp that would ensue from such a scene. The cast might hear of an encounterin a Colorado mining camp without six- shooters, and withdraw investments, The marshal was somewhat rough with his prisoner and struck him with a revolver in the face. Friends of the man interfered and threatened to take the prisoner uway. The marshal drew his gun. The people fell back and no one uttempted 10 nrgue with the acting representative of law, if not of order. A block further on, und the marshal, for some reason, found 1t necessary 1o assert his right to the prizoner’s jiwbone again. Things began to ook serious and the crowd, which was quickiy increasing, began to hoot and hiss und yell at tho marshal, who mude a forced march to the juil, a little log cabin. On his return uptown the marshal was followed by the throng, which was still increusing. He stopped opposite the Continental hotel and addressed his enemies. He chailenged anyone to come for- ward and light himu la Queensberry or a la Millbank, and if the would-be fighter had not a revoiver for the latter style he would giadly furnish one. This was pretty strong to a crowd of 1,000 people, but there were no takers, 'I'ne marshal scomed to own the town. He marched up and down the streets and inta all the “tough joints” in town, looking for a serap. He had his gun handy, while at a respectable distance the crowd jeered and hissed. There was nothing else talked of about town all night, and the more the affair was tulked of the move did the crowd excited. Something had to be done. A gathering wus held ut the Flagstaff at 10:20 p. m. Several mining men of importance were in ateendance. The action of the marshal was dealt with in scathing terms, **Let’s lynch him! foot from a distance. Yes, lynch him; hang him!” came from a hund ed throats. *Don’t do anything that would reflect on the town,” siid Cuaptain Farrvish, “Send a deputation to ‘give him notice to leave the town or be hanged.” This wiser counsel partially prevailed, but somenow a committee could not be got together to approach the marshal, In the meantime the more excited and determined appearing were getting reudy for supreme action. “*Bridle Hill™ had been giving exhibitions by lassoing an urchin paid to be lassoed. near at hund, und his rope was secured. The lassoer only too glad wo give it up, ulthough his belt was stuck iull of pis- tols. *‘Hero's the rope! Here's the rope! Let’s hang him to the Hagpole!” criod the leaders of the detachment. A roar went up that could be heard on Mount Pisguh. and it began to look dark for the marshul. The moro peace- ubly inclined hoped that he could not be found. e *Who's the blankety blanked blank, blank —— that’s speaking of lynching?’ demanded the marshal, us he walled up to the center, the crowd cleni ing u wide passagewny. He had a sixshooter in each hand, “Now, come aud hang me, you | roaved the oficer, us he brandished the revolvers, The crowd consulted a very short time, and it was annovnced thatalynch- ing bee would not be beneficial to the town, and further, that it was not hos- pitable to insist upon an immadiate de- parture from any one in a new town, s Nugget!

William M. Springer of Iilinois is thus tha offcial head of the forces gathored to attack the prot ive systew s it exists in the United States. He assumes to havo something more than “a slivht knowleage of the science of po- litical economy’® and he hus ventured to out- line the plau of atiack in a carefully prepared speech delivered recently at Detroit. In this speech, however, he not ouly displars au utter non-comprehension of economic method but also descends to the lowe depths of demagogy. ‘The whole of his so- callod argument turns upon the ery that tho policy of protection is responsible for all the evils, disastors and calamities that have befallen this country for the past thirty years. ‘The plausivility of a fow of his poluts demands for them a movo careful con- sideration, Tho first accusation that Mr. Springer orings against tho protective tarift is that it has occasioned all the business failuves and consequent losses to creditors fo recent times, He atatos his proposition as follows: urning to the buraau of statistics of the Treasury aepartment, I find that during tho past twenty-five yoars, while protection has prevailed in all “{ts vigor just as its friends would have it, n vast army of inaividuals, firms aud corporations, in tho United States, unting in numver to nearly 200,000, have umbed to the pressure of hard times and gone in bankruptcy. Their aggregate liabilities have exceedod §3,530,000,000, Just low much was realized In assets 18 not given in the statistios, but we ail know that as a rule but little {s realized by croditors of bankrapt cstates. Nor 1s it known how many persons there wero iu the loag lists of creditors of these bankrupts—nhow many there were who were losers of theso $3,5)0,- 000,00." To bozin with, 1t18 nota fact that the creditors of bankrupt estates realize no*hing at sl in cases of business failures. Statistics show that asa rulo the assots averagein the neighborhood of 40 per cent of tho liabilities, so that not much over one- half of these #3,500,000,000 could possibly bo charged to tho evil effect; of the taviff. But can the smallest fota of this loss bo charged to the tarif{ A mere glance at the tables of baukrup'oy as compiled by R. G.

Thne crisis of 1857 under the free trade regime was the occasion of 4, failures, involving liabilities tothe amount of §201,750,00, The crisis of 1873 during the proveciion period was marked by 5,183 failures with liabilities to the extent of §228,400,900. In otler words the failures of the grest free trado panie, though less in number, involved a groater Liability to creaitors by £63,850,100 than the panic of 1575, nolwithstanding tbe fact that the tariff had been lowered 10 per cent in 1872, the preceding year. The number of business failures in 1857 was, as stated, 4, It decroased slowly until the outbreak of the war, when it jumped to 6,003. A further decrease ensuad for o few yeass, followed by steady in- creases. he number first reached the 10,000 mark in 1878; it then fluctuated for five yeurs and again toucked 10,000 in 1884, since which time it has, with the exception ot the vears 1856 and 1887, remaited above that figure. It has not ouly increascd, but has ulso decreased under the protective tariff, It has not only decreased, but has increased during tue freo traae period from 1836 to 1861, “Theincreaso in the number of fuilures with- in tho past twenty-five yoars 1s no proof of a shrinkage in wealth or decline of pros- perity. It1s perfectly natural that the num- ber of failures should keep paca with the expansion of cornmerco and population, The volume of business in 1892 is more than three times greater than it was in the decade ending with 1860. Looked at geographically within tho Unitea States, the statistics prove ir- refutably that protection has not been thie cause of business failures, The greatnum- ber of bankrupteies occur, not in the dis- tricts where tho tariff has operatod most, but rather in those localities which ave desti- wto of maoufacturing Interests. For the vear 1801 the number of business failures, compured to the number of parties in busi- ness, was in tho southern states, 1 to 59; 1n the Pacific states and territories, 1 to 46 These states are chiefly minicg and agri- cultural. At the same time, the sim- ilar tgures for the eastern states wero 1 to 91; for the middlo states, 110 109; for the western states, 1 to 120—all increasing in prosperity under tho tariff Logislation, 1t protection causes busiuess failures, froe trade ought to secure immunity from such disasters, But thisisnat 0.

Dunn & Co's statement for Juno 89, 1803, roports the failures for the first six months of the present yoar at 5.508 as ageanst 0,074 during the same poriod in 1801, The total liabilities of all failures which ocourred in tho first six months of 1802 wero $92,000,00, whila for the same poriod in 1801 they waro §02,000,000. Tho first six montha of tho year after the Mc- Kinley bill went into effect saw & docreaso of 571 fn the number of failures and 32,000, 000 in the amount of liabilities from tho six months Just provious to the onforcement of thatlaw. Iftherais any inference to bo drawn from theso figures as to tho relation betweon the tariff and bankruptes, it is that tho McKivley bill has so steadied mar- kots ns to strongthon business and re- duce tho numbor of failures. Nono wre s0 blind as those who will not see. ‘Lhe chairman of the ways and means committeo could have secured those figures if be had boen at all disposed to make a fair showing. Manv people, ignorant of the real sources of baukruptoy, are ant to ascriba it to the first plausiblo theory advanced. It was to theso that Mr. Sprincer addressed his sophistry at Detroit. Ho sought to instill in the minds of his auditors tho 1dea tuat the causes of business bankruntey were differcnt In protective countries from those operating in froo trade countrio Now all who haveany conception of the immuta- bility of economic laws under similar condi- tions must seeat once tho fallacy of this assertion, he causes leading to bank- ruptcy are not only traceable, but have already been traced. Bradstreets aivide thoso causes 1nto two main classes—those that are due to the faults of those failing and those that are not due to the ults of thoso failing. Under the fivst are ranked in- competence, iucluding lackof capital, neglect of business and fraudulent disposition of proverty: under tho second nead come dis- aster, fuilures of others and special or un- due. coimpetition.
