Numerous bilis were contracted, and after it was all over the money o liquidate them was put into the hands of a young man connected with the association, who had had quite an important part in the preliminary arrange- ments, He reported 1o the secretary that he had paid all the bills, but there were two of them for which he nad neglected to take reccipts. One of these was for i ing in one of the city papers, and the other was for 8.50 for the use of the band wag which carried the musicians to the park. The secretary took the young man's word for it, and did not know that these oills had not been paid until one day he received bill for #4.50 from the newspaper and §2 from the owner of the band wagon. The young man was immediately sent for and when the pump was applied, he admitted that he had not paid the bills, but neglected to give any very satisfacto planation for his failure to doso. The jiersons who held the bills were thereupon referred to the young man, who told them that he had had the moncy to pay them but had turned it over to the s Caused Much Trouble. Another interview between Wright and his licutenant was in order instanter, aud it is related that upon being confronted with the results of his. irregularity he wept bitterly and promised to restore the amount he had embezzied. Before the intereiew closed however, he became angry and vowed he would make trouble for Wright, telling him, among other thiugs, that he would put the papers of the city on his t1s stated, he has been yiug out his threat and fo- ill feeliug among the members of the ciation toward Wright, and he is d to havo boen the one who instigated the attack on Wrignt in the This is the statement of the case as it comes from Wright's friend and if it is true 1t is evident that Wright has the young man in question in u posit where he could make things decidedly interesting for him if he chose to do 80. Secretary Wright was asked about the matter yvesterda, nd while he did not deny the statements given above he said he would rather nothiug should be said about the difficulty for the young man’s sake. “There are some of the friends of the association,” said he, “who would think me justified in putting myself right before the public, but T am afraid there arc others who would not, and for the best interests of all concerned 1 think the less said about the matter the better.” Whatever may be the feelings held toward Mr. Wright by the members of the associa- tion, the fact remains that there are 288 members envolled now, as compared with 211 ono year ago. Tho debt of the association at the opening of the present year was $000, as compared with #00 at the opening of 1803, and it is said that the associution 15 nearer out of debt now than it has been before for several years.

There was only one development in the fight for the posumastership yester- day, but that one was a large, well built ono and a great deal of interest was manifested in it on the streot corriers and in the public loaf- ing places. To tho people who are not ul- lowed to see tho inside of the telegrams that are ticking back and forth alonz the wires and aro compelled to use their own horse sense in figur up tho meaning of certain outside indications, it looks very much as though neither Rick’ man for Wadsworth would be the next post- master, but Thomas Bowman would carcy off the plum hefore their eyes, It w ated vesterday afternoon on the best of democratic autharity that the pres- ident has offerea the position to Bowm and the only question to be decidéd was whether or | not he would a As stated' in Tue Bre yeste > president was unwilling tsworth because he | had neither the cc fonal delegation nor the central committee buck of him, On the other hand, he w unwilling to appoint Rickman, ir spite of his per- sonal preference, on nccount of the voluminous protest that was filed by Wa vth's friends. Finaliy, seeing no other yout of the dificulty, he suzgested that Bowman take the appomtment himself, and significd his willngness to send his name to the senate forthwith if he wonld but say the worda People who know Tom Bowman know that | when he has promised a friend anything he is the last man 1 the world to go back on his word, and it will occasion no wonder the that he did not at once accept the place. He has been | working for Rickman from the start, and did not like to pull off in his own favor at this stage of the game. Even if this con sideration were nog sufiicfent there would be another which would doubtless have its | weight in determining Bowman's action. 1f | Rielkmau is not appointed Bowman will in all probability have to take back his nterest in~ the local democratic vaper, which ho parted with togetner with his_promise to work for Rickman. It is well known to the people of Council Bluffs that he does not want the paver back, 50 that he might naturally be expeeted to pause for some time before giving up the fight for Rickman A number of telegrams were sent out last evemmng by friends of Bowman, urging him to accept the appointment, but 80 far as could be learned, he has not yet committed himself as to what he will do. s friends seem to be du viged in their opinion of the outcome, vut such opinious are merely conjectures and must be taken for all they are worth and no more.

While the city is being flooded with inferior productions it has remained for this paper to give to the public a series Of World’s Fair Views In every way worthy of the name. Nothing calculated to con- tribute to the complete artistic and educational value of the work has been omitted. Discarding many offers, which others have since thought good, this paper secured the views From U. S. Govt. Photos To obtain which the large sum of §30,000 was appropriated and which involved infinite care and labor for many months on the part of the official photographer and his corps of assistants. As a natural result these views Are the Most Accurate And in every way reflect the substance and spirit of the great event. Particular effort was also made to verify the descriptive portions of the work, which thus, as a whole, becomes in every e The Most Authentic Popular record and remembrance of the Exposition which has been produced or which will hereafter be presented. A discrim- inating public, quick to appreciate and recognize superlative merit, has placed the seal of approval upon the Art Portfolios, and, having compared them with all others, has unhesitatingly pronounced them The Best. To participate in this unrivaled distribution it is only necessary to bring or send 6 coupons of different dates, with 10 cents, to address below, and you can secure any Portfolio during the week of its issue. - e ————— ART PORTFOLIO DEPT.
