The triatof *Dink” Wilson for murder has been detailed in Tuk Ber within the last few days, and the fact that his brother is nov' to go on trial for the same charge is of even greater interest here, from the fact that Charles has som ething of a record in Council Bluff, Last winter, 1t will be remembered, that Ofticers Leuch and Al Wells, who has siuce left the force, discovered a coliple of men try- ing to effect an entrance to the Boston store by moaus of the back window. A hot tignt ensued, during which several shots were fired on both sides with inteut to kill,ubut after a hund-to-hand combat, in which ' both the oficers narrowly escaped death at the hau of the dosperadaes, the latter were overpowerod and taken o the civy jail. After a long confinement they succeeded in .n-l»q bail, but promptly jumped thewr bond upon being veleased. One of the men was Charles Wilson.

OPPONENTS OF REED UNDER THE BAN When “Knifing” Is Indolged In Again Members of the Organizations Trou- ble Will Follow—Nicholson May Be Restored. by The Pottawattamie Democratic associa tlon held a special meeting last ovening. Tt had been quietly rumored that something might be expected to drop when this meet- ing was held, and the people who in the last campaign onposed Brooks Reed in his candi- dacy for the county treasurership were ex- pected to be underncath when it dropped. Considerable interest was consequently felt in the meoting, and the interest was not confined to the members of the club. The hall was well filled with members The matter in hand was brought up by some of those present in the shupe of a reso- lution to expal from the club all the mem- bers who had taken any active part in the campaign against Reed. The question of ex- ! pulsion was the subject of a long discussion, the vpshot of which was that such a move would bs in violation of the provisions of the constitution of the club. It was not allowed to drop there, however, and the club will see to it that when the operation of “knifing” candidates is re- peated in the future no constitutional pro- vision shall stand in the way ot disposing of such unruly members. A committee was appointed to drafe an amendment to the con- ition which shall provide that any mem- bers who shall openly oppose any democratio candidates for oftice shall be liable to ex- pulsion.

The club then proceeded to tear open the old sore that has lingered about the oftice of the tire chief, holson, it will be remem- bered, suspended from office on the strength of two charges that were p ferved against him tho conspiring, together with certain other m bers of the fire department. for the pur of seeing that the fire business was lively, in order to gi ders a ch et @ job, and that he had been g gross misconduct while on duty. Omaha, getting drunk and raising Cain gen- eral These charges were drawn up against him in due form and the council was about to make a complote investigation, with a view to removing him from oftice in case the charges should prove to have been well founded. At Nicholson's request the investigation was postponed until after the grand jury had disposed of the case, in oyder that his chances with the council might not be prejudiced. Since the grand jury failed to indict him a move has been quictly on foot to have him restored to his office. A committee was ap- pointed last night to draft a petition which will be presented to the council asking that Nicholson be restored to the position of fire chief. Tt has been understood that there would be no further investigation of the case unless Nicholson or his friends insisted on his reinstatement. This request from the democratic associa- tion, however, will render it necessary for the investis on to be reopened. The peti- tion will doubtless be presented to the coun- s meeting next Monday night, and ction will be taken to set a time for tuking of U mony. The friends of Nicholson are banking on'the people of the having so far forgotten the reports which came to the city from the other side of the rviver with reference to Nicholson's actions.

Cobb & Son of Tipton sent an order to Alfred Shrimpton & Sous of New York for pius and knitting needles to the value of about §2.80. The pins and needles arriv in due time, but iustcad of being worth the bill was for $608.75. Cobb & Son refused to accept them and notified the Nuw York firm, insisting that there was a m take somewhere. Shrimpton & Sons inves gated the matter and brought suit to compel them to accept them and pay interest on the amount to date. The case has been con- tinued from time to time until this term. A petition is being circulated in this city askiug for a special election to vote upon the question of abandoning the special charter under which the city”is incorporated and reincorporation under the general laws of the state. When fifty taxpayers have signed this petition, a special election must be called to vote on the proposition. The move- ment has been brought about by.the recent action of the city council in passing an ordinance providing for the reassessment ot the city on a cash value basis in order that the debt could be incrcased and city im- provements carried on.
