{ THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: NEWS OF [ ————— MONDAY, JANUARY 27, 1902 INTEREST FROM IOWA. COUNCIL BLUFFS. 10 SETTLE BRIDGE QbESTlON ibnd! Will Take Final Action at Meeting This Afterneen. BELEF THAT COST CAN BE REDUCED Property Owner Suggest Plan of Opening Street by Which De- mand for Bridge Wil Be Obviated, The city council will meet this afternoon n adjourned session to take final actlon in the matter of the Mynster and North Main streets bridge. Since the submission of the blds which were referred to the city engl- peer for tabulation several of the aldermen Bave been figuring on the less costly plan of opening Mynster street by opening the thoroughfare through the purchase of the property on the north side of Indlan creek. It s conceded that the purchase of this property by the city would be the least ex- pensive. While the agents for the property have saked $3,500 for the ground necessary to open the street, it s belidved that if the city would seriously consider this proposi- tlon the property could be purchased at a much lower figure. At the lowest bld for a steel cylinder ®ridge the city would have to expend close mpon $4,000, while the ground necessary to open the street without such a structure would, it is belleved, not exceed $2,500, pro- ~1ding the oity was to make a definije bid for it. The opening of the street as suggested by the owners of the property at the north- west corner of Main and Myneter streets would obviate the necessity for constructing & bridge and afford all the facility for ordi- pary trafic at a much lower cost.

The total number of persons in the in- etitution on January 1, 1902, was 213, of whom 185 were children and twenty-eight were helpers and aged. During the last six months of 1901 thirty-seven children were received into the home and homes were found for thirty-four children. During the year there were nine deaths in the home. The financial report of the institution for 1901 shows that the total recelpts were $24,060.58, and that the expenditures were $4,600.29 in excess of the recelpts. The January receipts, however, were sufficient 1o clear off the deficlency and place a bal- ance to the credit of the improvement and contingent fund.

ONLY A FEW BILLS ARE GENERAL Measures Affecting the Judiciary May Up First=Library Adopts & Plan—Traatees and Regents to Be Selected. Come Bonrd (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Jan. 26.—(Special.)—The first two weeks of the session of the twenty- ninth general assembly of lowa brought forth nothing either sensational or espe- clally interesting. Nothing has happened that would indicate that the session is to be unusual in any respect or that legisla- tion 18 to be considered that is radical or revolutionary. The attitude of the legislative leaders fs plainly that of waiting for something to turn up. Each one is waiting for the others to make the first move. If there is to be legislation that will provoke con- troversies, the unquestioned party leaders are slow to bring it to the front. The general legislation indicated in bills before the legislature now is confined to matters of detail. A good primary election law has been presented in both houses, which contemplates legalizing primary elections and taking out of the hands of | the party leaders the right to fix the method of making nominations for office. There does not appear to be much demand for the law, ‘but there is no visible opposition. A blll to do away with the ballot circle for straight party voting is only one of several that will be considered in relation to ballot reforms. The land title registration bill aims at adoption of the Torrens system in Towa in modifled form. A bill written to reduce the number of divorces granted to residents of other states in lowa may recelve some consideration. The bill to place telephone systems on the same basis as gas works, electric rallways, etc., in the matter of municipal ownership and control 1s pretty sure to pass. The compulsory education law, which s being favored by the labor unions, wHl meet with some opposition and it is doubtful it it can get through. All the appropriation bills that have been introduced thus far are for state institutions and are such as have been foreshadowed, Judiciary B It is wxpected that this week considera- tion will be glven to several matters af- feoting the judiciary of the state. A bill has been introduced which looks to pen- sloning the district judges after eeveral years of service and when they are old. The more important bills, however, that are to come before the legislature relate to a method of relleving the supreme court of some of its burdems. Two years ago the Temple bill for an appellate court was passed by the house almost unanimously, but it was late in the session and the sen- ate did not reach the bill. Mr. Temple will introduce the same measure again. It provides for an appellate court of three members, to have jurisdiction over certain cases appealed from the district courts. It is belleved the appellate court would take a large portion of the minor cases ap- pealed and leave the supreme court free to give more time to the work. Mr. Temple s he hae investigated the commissioner system adopted in Nebraska and prefers the appellate court idea for Iowa. The Towa judges, six {n number, are compelled to examine more than 100 cases each in every year and to write decisions thereon. It results In one-man opinions and there- | fore the decislons of the lowa supreme | court do not stand high with lawyers. Other bills affecting the judiciary will be to ralse the salaries and to rearrange the districts. | Trustees and Regents. The joint republican caucus to select | trustees of the Agricultural college and State Normal school and regents of the | State university is called for next Tuesday | evening. It has been the custom to permit the district members to select the trus- tees and regents from their respective dis- tricts and then to have a jolnt caucus to ratify the selections. All of the district caucuses have been held except in tho | kota—bestdes those Congressman Hull indicating that if the re- publicans of the district will renominate him for congress he will secure an appro- priation for a new poetoffice building In Des Moines and that a new bullding will be erected here at a cost of over $1,000,000. The business of auditing the accounts In connection with the rural mail delivery in Towa is being concentrated here and many other matters which make it necessary that there should be a new federal bufld- ing. The cornerstone of the present build- ing was laid in 1868 and it was remodeled about fifteen years ago. Congressman Hull is engaged in working for a new building and reports that the supervising architect of the Treasury department is in favor of such a building. This is regarded as highly encouraging.

CALL ON PRESIDENT (Continued from First Page.) they should be sold to some corporation which would keep them solely for trans- port service, which few concerms would care to do. Representative Kahn of California is one of the most pronounced members from the Pacific coast in his outspoken opposition to the idea of selling the transports. “So long as we have soldiers In the Philippines,” sald Mr. Kaha today, “we shall have bodies of sick troops to bring back to this country. In private steamers it would be almost im- possible to secure for these sick men the caro which they must have in the long voyage across the Pacific. Then, too, it fs known that steamship owners invariably pack their steamers to the limfu of thelr capacity and we should find on occaston that 400 men are crowded into space scarcely large enough to properly care for half that number. This government would do better, it seems to me, tc retain the vessels now owned If they have to be lald out of commission for long periods when not needed. It is certainly anything but an economical policy to sell vessels for much less than they cost when we may find our- selves compelled to secure others at short notice. It must not be forgotten that it would take a long time to fit up new ves- sels for transport service. Congress Must Act First. ““The question of disposing of the vessels of the transport service has been broached but congress must act before anything can be dome, and from what T can learn the military committes {8 not disposed to look tavorably upon the profect.’” Mr. Kahn's views aro generally indorsed by the Pacific coast members, who, for some reason, take more interest in this subject than those from any other section of the country, There is a report here that Mr. Hill, pres- ident of the Great Northern rallroad, is anxlous to buy all of the transports now in use between the Pacific coast and the Phillppines, the object being to run a line in connection with the railroad. Mr. Hill's plang, It he really has any, are unknown here, and officlals of the War department declare that no movement in this direction has vet been made. “I think that our policy of Indian educa- tlon Is radically- wrong,” sald Senator Kit- tredge of South Dakota today. “We have school established, such as those at Hamp- ton and Carlisle, and we have others in the states—thero are four in South Da- on the reservations. These institutions are maintained for the purpose of teaching the red men to be- come artisans and farmers, and after they are taught they are turned back upon the reservations, where in many instances they have become blanket Indlans again and soon lapse into a semi-savage state. My idea 18,” continued the senator, “that thes Indians who have been taught a trade should be sent east to work among white people, where they would learn the ways of civilization and acquire habits of in dustry, , without which the red man can now the eatisfaction of having secured ita passage In the senate, but he Is afraid that the house will not look favorably upon the measure. King, from all the evidence, sustained a litelong injury, which will forever prohibit him from active labor, and as the shoot- ing was done by an agent of the govern- ment, the bill seeks to make the govern- ment relponulhlfl for the injury inflicted.

NOT DISPOSED TO TAKE ISSUE President Healtates to Interfere with Conclustons of the Attorney General. excellent WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.—Senators Turner and Foster and Representatives Jones and Cushman of Washington have urged the president to have an appeal taken in the case of the United States against the North- ern Pacific Railway company, which was recently decided agalnst the United States by Judge Hanford. The case Involves the title to lands in Clark county, Washington, which have been taken up by homesteaders. The attorney general recommended that no appeal be taken on the ground that the law was against the United States and that the case had practically been decided in the Spaulding case. The time for ap- peal expires in about seven days. The president sald he was rot disposed to take issue with the conclusions of the attorney general.

MISSOURI VALLEY, Ia., Jan. 26.—(Spe- clal.)—Judge Wheeler, who {s presiding at this session of the Harrison county d triet court, has appolnted the following committee to investigate the course of the Harrison county Board of Supervisors: W. H. Fensler of Missourl Valley, Almor Stern of Logan and Brooks Reed of Councll Blufts, The investigation will extend over the actions of the board during the past three years. An expert Is now at work making an Investigation of all the other county ofces. 1t 18 belleved that the whole matter arose from the plans of an element who wish to get rid of the present board and then r district the county to their lking. The entire county is intensely interested iu the outcomsa of the afaln Tenth district, where there s a fight on hand over regent of the university. Har- vey Ingham of Algona, who has long been a valued member of the board of regents, Is opposed by Joseph Allen of Pocahontas, who {s a young graduate of the university and .a popular business man. The fight is in reality a continuation of an old fac- tional feud in that corner of the state and the forces are so nearly evenly di- vided that no caucus has yet been pos- aible. One of the members from that dis- trict has been 11, but will be here tomor- row and it is expected that a caucus will be held, but it may not decide the mat- ter, and the joint caucus of all members will be compelled to settle it, The board of trustees of the state 1i- brary have decided upon leaving to Gov- ernor Cummins and Secretary of State Martin, as a committee of the board, the direction of legislative matters of interest to the board. It {s desired that there shall be a consolidation of the work of the traveling library and the state library commission. The former provides for por- tions of the state llbrary which shall go about the state for the benefit of small towns and rural students and has proved very popular. The work of the State Li- brary commission has been largely in the matter of encouraging libraries in different parta of the state. They have been man- aged under separate heads.

Senator Kittredge is about as famillar with Indians as any man in congress. He has been closely alljed with them for some years past and was recently adopted into the band of Swift Bird of the Cheyenne agency.

The measure, while admittedly just, h been frowned upon by members of the committee on military affalrs as setting a bad precedent. Notwithstanding the just- ness of the bill, legislators are very chary of throwing down the bars to the country, which they claim they would do if bills of a character such as this Is are passed. The story surrounding the measure I8 interesting to a degree. While looking after a herd of 2,000 sheep, near Baggs, Wyo., Richard King was shot by a soldier of Troop F, Ninth cavalry, while the com- pany was enroute from Rawlins, Wyo., to Fort Duchesne, Utah, in 1894, King was sitting In the shadow of a rock, herding his sheep, when he was suddenly struck by a bullet. Upon raising himself he was able to see two men with horses, who seemed to be going away from him. He motloned to the men, who reluctantly returned, one of them proving to be a colored trooper, and when asked why he shot King the trooper said that “‘he thought he was an antelope.” Both men left the severely wounded man, one ostensibly to find the surgeon, the other to find King's wife, who was in camp about three-fourths of a mile away. After waiting some time, and bleeding profusely, King managed to crawl to his camp. He was tenderly cared for by his wife and late in the day the hospital steward of the troop came to King's camp, baving been ordered to do so when notice of the shoot- Ing was given to the command by the sece ond soldier. Recovery Almost Marvelous. His report to the military authorities set forth the serious nature of the wound, and physiclans agree that King's recovery was almost marvelous. King suffered for ten months, incurring over $600 expenditure for medical service while his only property, the herd of sheep, were widely scattered and never recovered. The bill, which carries with it an appro- priation of $3,000, has been urgently pushed by Senator Clark of Wyoming, sud he Las | can tour next April . l ability of both the president and the vice president.

CONFER WITH THE PRESIDENT Long and Hanna Interview Chiet Ex. ecutive on Appeal of Ad- miral Schiey. WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.—Secretary Long was in conference with the president for over an hour tonight, presumably in re- gard to the appeal of Rear Admiral Schley from the findings of the court of inquiry which was referred by the executive to the Navy department for “comment.” The sec- retary was accompanied by Judge Advocate General Lemly and Sollcitor Hanna, who conducted the case before the court. The meeting with the president followed a gath- ering of the three gentlemen at Secretary Long's apartments and when they departed for the White House they had with them bundles of papers which had the appear- ance of legal documents.
