Still the people evidently propose to put off all possible additional expenditures of public funds and to keep taxes down as low as possible until gome general wave of pros- perity shall sweep over the entive land.

Voters did not stop (o think that they would have to provide money to pay interest on outstand- ing notes, whether they wanted to or not, but in their thoughtlessness they voted that proposition down with the others, runnig the risk of imfuring the credit of the city by failing to provide means for meeting their honest_debts. Another proposition which arouses no little Qiscussion, now that the smoke of the battle 18 clearing away, is the sixth one. What docs the question mean? What means the answer? Opinions differ, and they seem to Bwing about the word “carry.” What does it mean for the Board of Bducation to “carry” insurance? Does it mean it is to be its own insurance company, public, or doe chool bulid backed by the it mean that it is to itinue to patronize the insurance companie Soine 1n: that it is not a property owner who rries {nsurance,” but the company which arries” it for him. Others claim the op- posite. Then if one decides on the construc- tion to be given the language of the proposi- tion, does it follow that the voters under- Btood it that way? However subtle the debate waged there seems little doubt but that the ma- Jority of voters intended to further convey their feeling of opposition to all expendi- tures by directing the board to pay out no more money to insurance companies. This is in line, with the majority opposition to other expenditures, Wheth they have righttully expressed their feeling by voting “no’” to this proposition, or whether they should have voted “yes” in order to do away with the Insurance policies, may have to be determined in court.

The chief of police and Officer Martin placed Hans Neble under arrest yesterday afternoon on the charge of reckless driving. Neble had injected a good deal of enthuslasm into the horse he was driving. Chief Scanlan ad- vised the young man to drive straight for Omaha, Neble didn't take the suggestion as Kindly as it was meant and the chief at- tempted to end the argument by placing the man under arrest. In a moment he was sur- rounded by a crowd of the Danish man's friends. A big crowd was atfracted by the scuflle that ensued, and Officer Martin came to the aid of the c¢hief while another officer turned in a call for the patrol wagon. When the trouble was over D. Brown and M. Kel- berg, printers employed on the Dannebrog, published in this eclty, were given seats in the wagon with Mr. Neble and taken to the station to answer a charge of resisting an officer. Neble was charged with fast driving. Some of the Danish citizens were a wood deal excited and were anxious to pre- for charges against the officers for what they claimed was the unwarranted arrest of their fricnds. Several of them hunted up the chief and made their charges, under the fmpression that it was only two patrolmen that made the arrest, and Chief Scanlan had the novel experience of listening to a com- plaint made against himself. eble was re cased shortly after, Jens Jenson of th local Danish paper going on his bond, The case will be heard in the police court at 10 o'clock this morning. Subpoenas have been issued for a number of prominent citi- gens who witnessed the arrest, among them Finley Burke, J. J. Stewart, B. W. Hart and Wohn Beno. Not Afrald of Tariff.

The past week the transfers were seventy-four in number, and amounted to $179,878. The fellow who is to be tried on the charge of burglarizing the Keeline home is “Doug” McGuire, and not “Doug’ Burns. The right- ful owner of the latter name has been some- what annoyed by the appropriation of his name, as he is winning an honest livelihood at the transfer and is above all suspicion, even of any dishonorable conduct. Robert Limerick, who has been wanted for some time, and who was captured Mon- was brought before Judge McGee y ay morning charged with being oné of who assaulted Mrs. Field. He ad- mitted that he made the assault, but denied that he intended robbery. He was held to await the action of the grand jury, bail being fixed at $300.

M Reed thought every county had a vital, an abiding inte t in this measure, and to leave th seetion In the bill would open wide the flood gates in those ctions of the state where the law is now enforced. THEIR 1DOL TOO STRONG. Byers of Shelby said that the trouble was that the prohibitionists were unwilling to give up th idol that they had wor- shipped these many years. He aid that doggeries and holes in_the walls prevailed in cities of than 5,000 inhabitants all over the state, and if this proposed amend- ment prevailed they would get no relief. Ho challenged any one to stand up on the floor and say that the prohibitory law was nol a failure. Even the gentleman from Hardin admitted this fact. He thought the main reason why the law was not enforeed was because the penalties had been made so vera as to shock the moral sensibilitics of the people. Mr. Bell of Washington vehemently denied that the platform committed the party to any such a measure. In making further opposition to the amend- ment, Mr. Sawyer of Woodbury said that in Sioux county there were now thirty saloons an no towns of any considerable size, and this county would get no relief. Mr. Harriman of Franklin admitted that the prohibitionists were not willing to give up their idol, and claimed the party did not demand this sacrifice. Mr. Klemme said that there were fifty saloons in his county (Winneshick) and the bill as it was sought to be amended would grant no relief. Mr. Morris of Clarke, in closing the argu- ment, said either this amendment must be defeated or the prohibitory law must go down at the hands of the legislature. After further debate the roll was called amid breathless excitement on what all conceded determined the fate of the measure. The result was a tie and Mr. Sessions, who had declined to vote at all, was induced to vote yea in order to make a reconsideration, and he was followed by Morrison and Walters, Mr. Doane came in and voted yea, the final result being announced, yeas 39, nays 33 The battle will be renewed tomorrow on the motion to reconsider.

The senate passed a resolution condemning Cleveland’s Hawaiian policy and resumed consideration of the local option bill. Sen tor Ellis addressed the senate at great length, reviewing the history of prohibition and declaring it to be a failure. He urged the republicans who favored the maintains ing of the present law where it is now en- forced to assist in the pending bill and a sured them that this was the only way pro- nibition could be saved in a single count It was to him the stmple question whether the republicans would be faithful to the party pledge and keep faith with the people, thereby saving all of prohibition that is worth saving or invite utter defeat at the hands of the democ ey two years hgnee and lose everything. Senator Finn replied, taking the ground that the passage of o local option bill would be a virtual acknowl edgment that the republican party had been wrong all these years and the democrats right.
