Just at the present time there is consid- erable discussion of the merits and demerits of the mulct law, and although there are but very few peoplo who claim that it 1s as perfect a piece of legislation as might be de- vised, still it must be confessed that it Is en- forced more stringently than any liquor law that the Pottawattamle county officials have Bad to deal with for a good many years. Lost January the county supervisors made up their minds to make a thorough test of it, and they passed a resolution Instructing the county attorney and treasurer to collect all llquor taxes strictly in advance, and where such payment was refused to close the sa- loon. In February a still stronger resolution of the same sort was passed, and in March & circular letter was mailed to every saloon keeper in the county telling him what was expected of him, The new rule went into ef- fect April 1, and ever since that time the budge-joint keepers have shown a willing- ness to obey the law, with a few excep- tions, and whacked up on the first of a quarter with a regularity which was only equalled by tho vigilance showed by the treasurer and attorney in seeing that they did so. Only four suits have been brought by the county attorney to enforce the pey ment of the tax in the entire county since November 1. Two saloons in Council Bluffs Rave been closed up on account of their be- ing too close to some church building. The result of the prosecution has been to close up every saloon on the country roads in the entlre county with but two oxceptions #0 far as Is known, those being the Pony Creek saloon, five miles southeast of the city, and Krettich's place, just outside the city limits on the Crescent City road. The saloon at Crescent City has also had to succumb to the Jaw and is now no more, owing (o the insuf- ficlent thirst of the Inhabitants. Quite a number of the saloons fn the city, especially those in the suburbs, have also been obliged . to close up, not being able to sell enough lquor to make the business profitable after &1ving the county $50 and the city $27.10 each month, The saloons have contributed in the nelgh- borhood of $38,000 to the public revenue since January 1. By compeiling the saloons to pay taxes In advance the county has been relieved of a_ great deal of embarrassment. A large @umber of the places in which liquors were #0ld would not bring the amount of a single month's tax if sold by process of law. The evident intention of their proprietors at the start was to run their shops until the county officials levied upon them and then let the county have the premises, in which event the county would bo largely in the hole. A stop was very soon put to this scheme by the de- termined action of the authorities. Burned Their Money.

Albert Deetken and William Roper, two Doys who found and appropriated $100 of Ed N. Brown's money in the vestry of the Chri tlan tabernacle, were discharged by Justice Vien yesterday on a technicality, The attor- mey for the defense, shoved a sheep-bound book at the court, the 44th Iowa, page which said that a person could not be co victed of larceny if he merely found an arti- ol of value, although he made not the slight- st attempt to find the owner. The boys had glven up the money as soon as they heard that the owrer had been located, and had only spent 80 cents of the amount, and the court accordingly held that they came under the deciston quoted.

BUNCOED BY CHAIRMAN BENJAMIN, That s What the 0'Iirlen Demoernts Clalm Was Do The nt Avoen, There are an ill-humored lot of O'Brien in Council Bluffs other parts ttawattamie county just now as the of the county convention at Avoca Wednesday. Every one knows the untiring efforts that were made by them to lay the wires just right, and the narrow escape John P. Stuhr had from being defeated in his race for the shrieva Five minutes after the result of the balloting was announced by Fremont Benjamin, the chairman, they found that never until O'Brien moved that Stuhr's nomination be made unanimous was he really nominated, and that {s the reason why the old &hivers go and down their backs when the contest s mentioned. Everybody knew that it took 111 ballots for a nomination. After the ballots had all been cast, the secreta John J. Frainey, who, like Benjamin, was a Stuhr man, footed up the totals and announced them to the president, Benjamin, who told the convention, In the stereotyped language, that “Mr. Stuhr, having recelved the necessary number of votes, was declared nominated.” O'Brien, in the meantime, had been keeping tally on his own vote, and seelng that he had only re- celved 108, three less than the required num- ber, immediately moved that the nomination be ‘made unanfimous. It was done with a whoop, and it was not for several seconds that the true condition of things was noticed by O'Brien and his followers. “Then we figured that if ‘we ralsed a fuss and tried to have another ballot taken we couldn’t explain it to the Stuhr men satis- factorily, and they would go up to the polls and defeat me on election day.” That Is the way in which O'Brien explains it néw. His foliowers claim that it was a clear case of bunco steering on the part of either Frainey or Benjamin, or both, but for the sake of harmony, and in view of the good chances for republican success anyway they are trying to swallow their medicine With as few grimaces as possible. It is re- ported that negotiations are pending whereby O'Brien is to be given a place as deputy, in case of Stuhr's elcction, to close the breach. The nomination of Dr. Hempsted for sena- tor Is another thing which is not at all agree- able to the friends of 8. G. Underwood. Dr. Hempsted has a good many friends through- out the county, and it was considered a very nice thing to give him a complimentary vote, not for a moment thinking that he would actually be nominated. Quite a number of Underwood’s friends agreed to vote for Hemp sted on the first ballot, just for friendship' sake. Then one of his friends was to get up and withdraw Hempsted’s name, Under- wood was to be nominated and with a big show of enthusiasm. But, as luck would have it, the man who was to do the withdrawing arose just at the same instant as T. E. Cas- ady of this city, and_ Casady being nearest to Chairman Benjamin, who had not been sufficiently posted as to the program that was to be followed, was recog- nized. Ho moved to make the nomination unanimous, and before the Underwood men could recover from their surprise the motion had "been seconded and. carried. Thus it ap- pears that at least two of the democrats owe their place on the ticket to pure accidents, and there is no end of dlssatisfaction with the result of the convention, HE FAIR, Van Brunt & Waite's Fine Display at Nebraska's Great Exposition The thousands and tens of thousands of people who visited the great Nebraska state falr will carry away with them much valua- ble information and an enlarged idea of the greatness of the great Missouri valley. But above all must they have been impressed with the splendid showing made by Council Bluffs exhibitors. The fine bulidings and the magnificent displays made a large part of the great show. In the carriage line the big firm of Van Brunt & Waite easily took precedence of all rivals. They occupy & bullding of their own 100x40 fect, located on one of the most favorable sites on the grounds., Thelr exhibit covers all the floor space except a small portion reserved for private ofices. They are the general agents for the Columbla Carrlage company of Hamilton, O., and their exhibit shows one each of every style of carriage made by that big factory. Thirty-three styles of carriages, phaetons and surreys are shown and no potentate ever rode in a more ideally perfect vehiclg than many of these. At the head of thecentral aisle stands an example of the emerald grade buggy with green in- laid side panels and shell style back and cushions. Next to it is one of the most showy and attractive vehicles ever built. It It a shell phaeton in aluminum bronze and gold, Near by Is another that represents the best grade of the Columbia buggies, one con- tinuous surface from the bottom of the body to the top of the seat. Another feature that attracts great interest is the Jewel storm apron, just patented and entirely new. It in- closes the buggy entirely, excluding rain and cold, and has proved a great attraction to the crowds. It Is adjustable to fit any size buggy. Every vehirle in the exhibit is a rep- resentative of a class, and each represents the best and latest in its line. One splendid look- ing vehicle represents the Brewster end com- bination spring, which does away with the side bar. It is one of the neatest looking ve- hicles on the floor. In each there is a new Idea combining beauty and comfort. One buggy trimmed in green plush is greatly ad- mired by the thousands. In the shell pat- terns of phaetons and surreys there are some exquisitely handsome turnouts, cut-under and straight sills, elaborately carved and queenly In their beauty. Two stylish traps are shown, superbly elegant. Another representative ve- hicle is the new Miami grade buggy, which Is of perhaps greater interest to the dealers than any other in the exhibit because it has more selling features to be shown buyers than any other. The body Is pointed, green and black panels, edged with fine gold strip- ing, The back stays and top are stitched with yellow sllk; welts and top lined with buft leather and cushions trimmed in the same way. Altogether it is entirely new and decidedly the best seller ever put on the market for the money. Another is the new Columbla, with new style of stays, back and cushions, fancy headlinings and back stays and body carpeted Inside. In the display is the famous Hickory wagon shown by the Kentucky Wagon company at the World's fair. The great reputation of the Hickory wagon makes this an object of deep interest The line comprises three styles of this ve- hicle. In the minor lines come all grades of spring wagons and carts, and a full line of cutters of the handsomest patterns, WILL MAKE BICYCLES, The company makes an announcement that will be of deep interest to wheelmen, They have on exhibition the first wheel made by the Hamilton Cycle company, It is one of the finest wheels ever put on the market, mpany will turn them out for next season’s trade by the hundred thousand. It is the boast of the company that they will make the highest grade wheel in the world, of new styles and designs, large tubing, bar- rel hubs, double fork crown, in short a wheel combining all the best points of the best wheels in the world The-entire exhibit is not only a credit to the big Council Bluffs firm, but it is one of the most attractive features of Nebraska's greatest exposition. CARRIA The new Bluffs City laundry, 34 North Main, claims less wear and finer work on shirts, collars and cuffs than any laundry in the state. Phone 314, Medics Meet to Talk.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.—The State de- partment has received through the British embassy and referred to the Department ot Justice & copy of & letter from the governor of the Bahama islands in which It is stated that on August 30 a quantity of arms, ammunition, etc., was discovered on an uninhabited ‘island known as Grassy Key, oft the southern shore of Andros island in the Bahama group. cles ha dently been quite | These articles had evidently a [ fune: Trimore: recently placed there, and the leaves with which they were covered were quite fresh and they were packed in cases marked with the names, initials and letters, which are given, It is presumed, the leiter says, that the shippers of these munitions of war, ap- parently residents of the state of Florida, in- tended to convey them to the Cuban insur- gents The attention of the State department is unofficlally called to the matter, in case the department is willing to [nquire and inform the British authorities by whom and _by what vessels these munitions of war were shipped from Florida and illegally landed in the Bahamas.

W. Re ds Refunes Offers from Pops and Dems, BOONE, Ia., Sept. 19.—(Special Telegram.) —Last week the democrats of the Boone- Story senatorial district met in convention here and passed the nomination of a candi- date, appointing a committee to place a nzme on the ticket if it saw proper. The plan was to get Hon. L. W. Reynolds, who was a defeated candidate before the republi- can convention, to run as an independent candidate and then let this committee en- dorse him. They thought by taking advan- tage of a little feeling which has existed in the republican party here they could elect him. But Reynolds is too good a republican to get into that kind of a snap. The Daily News here this evening contains an authori- tative statement from him that while he is obliged for the kindly interest they take in him, he is a republican and don’t want any democratic or populistic endorsement, He says that he was a candidate before the re- publican convention and that he is for the nominee of that convention. The democrats cannot use him to create discord in his own party. Foul Play Suspected. CRESTON, Ia, Sept. 19.—(Special Tele- gram.)—Dave Connors, a prominent bachelor farmer, residing near Lenox, was found dead this morning in a corn fleld, Connors suddenly dis- appeared a week ago, and not returning a searching party has been looking for him. There are some evidences that lead many to believe that Connors was murdered, as he has a wound on his head, as if made by a gun shot. The coroner's jury is making a searching examination. Knocked Out in the First Round. JEFFERSON, Ia., Sept. 19.—(Special.)— State's Attorney Remley has decided against 0. W. Lowery, who sought to have his name placed at the head of the republican ticket in this county, setting aside the regular nom- inee, because of priority in flling nomination papers. He says there would be just as much sense in trying to have General Drake's name supplanted by his own on the state ticket on the same grounds, ODD FELLOWS AM D THEIR LAWS, Most Important One s In Regard to ublic Installations.
