COUNCIL OPENS PAVING BIDS Letting of Contract Deferred Until City Engineer Has Ta lated Them. Contrary to cystom the city councll fafled to adjourn last night on account of it being Labor day, but held a session at which little else but routine business was transacted, . Bids for the paving of Plerce street from Oak street to North avenue were received from James Wickham of this city, and Mc- Gorrisk & Co., of Des Moines. The street is to be paved with one course of brick on concrete base. The bids, which were re- terred: to the ojty -engineer for tabulation, ‘Wickham, Galesburg brick ;" Tes Molnes Boone brick, $1.87%. ures, 5 per cent to be added for certificat McGorrisk &, Co., Galesburg brick, $1.93; Springfleld brick, $1.93; Des Moines brick, $1.90, These figures are for cash with § per cent to be added for certificates. Alderman Casper, who is anxious that the street be paved as speedily as posaible, urged that the contract be awarded to ‘Wjickham, his belng the lowest bid, but the other aldermen preferred to first refer the bids to the city engineer. The pay roll for the streets and alleys department for August, amounting to $891.04, lacked the approving signature of Alderman Lougee and was lald over until the next meeting. Alderman Lougee ex- plained that he had declined to O. K. the pay roll for the reason that he had not been acting as chairman the greater part of the month. He offered to investigate it and reéport at the next meeting, Former Street Supervisor Taylor pre- sented a report showing that 825 poll taxes had been worked out during the months of April to August inclusive, The report ‘was -not deemed sufficiently explicit and was referred to a speclal committee con- sisting of Aldermen Huber and Tinley.

LABOR UNIONS ON PARADE One of Most Impressive Demonstrati Ever Held in the Oity, ELKS ADD SOME: UNIQUE FEATURES | Rev. John W ms Talks of the Re- of Labor to the Chureh and the Mission of Unions, The labor unions and their friends and the Elks owned Council Bluffs yesterday | and there was something doing all the | time. The Elks expect to own the city| for the remainder of the week and keep | things humming. The weather could not have been more propitious, and it seemocd as it everyone took advantage of the holi- day elther to enjoy the festivities at tho Driving park, where the labor unions had | their sports and exercises, or to take in the varlous attractions and incidentally part with some of their loose cash at the carnival, which opened promptly on ‘sched- ule time at 1 o'clock in the afternoon. The committee in charge of the Labor day arrangements met with several disap- pointments, and the number of union men | in the parade was not nearly as great had been anticipated, but this, however, did not prevent this feature from being a notable one. From a spectacular point of view the parade was one of the best seen in the city for a long time. The ab- cence of many of the unions in the parade was noteworthy from the fact that the general prosperity which Council Bluffs, in common with the rest of the country is enjoying, was responsible for this. Council Bluffs {s enjoying & bullding boom and many large buildings are in course of con- struction on which the work is being rushed. Contractors. are pushed for time, and carpenters, bricklayers, plasterers and other mechanics preferred to make hay while the sun shone yesterday and earn extra wages by keeping at work instead of joining the throng of holiday seekers. In consequence several hundred men be- longing to these unions did not take part in the parade, but when the day's work was over joined the crowd at the Driving park and enjoyed the festivities for the remainder of the day. It had also been expected that the Omaha unions would take part in the pa. rade here, but owing to a change of plans wcross the river they paraded there In- stead. Parade Starts Time. The parade started shortly before 11 o'clock, forming on Pearl street and marching to the intersection of n street, then north on Main to Broadway, then east to First street and counter- marched on Broadway to the Northwe ern depot, where the column disbanded and the several organizations marched back in separate bodies to thelr respective head- quarters. Heading the column was a detail of po- lice in command of Captain Maltby, the veteran officer, who has been a famillar figure at the head of many such parad ‘Then came Sergeant . Gardiner, pres- ident of the Trades and Labor assembly, grand marshal of the day, with his mounted aldes. Following the Musical Union band, the membe! of which were attired in natty White uniforms, came the members of the Council Bluffs lodge of Elks, 320 strong, wearing white caps with purple bands, carrying canes of purple and" whi and h member with a large rosette or bouquet of the same colors, those of the order. The antlered herd was greeted ‘with much ‘enthusiasm all along the line of march by the thousands that thtonged the sidewalks. Then came Mayor Morgan and the city officials and the speakers of the day In carriage: The unions fol- lowed In this order: Carpenters and Jolners, fifty in number.

Colored Brotherhood L!'nlon. twenty-five in number. Some Unique Fentures. Following the labor unjons came the auto- mobiles, making their first appearance in a public parade in this city. Then came the portion of the parade which appealed to the young. This was the long line of features from the Elks' carnival and street falr. Headlng this section came ths troupcs of performers In the Streets of Ind'a and Cairo in carriages and on camels. Behind them were floats bearing the prizes to be dis- tributed at the fair and thess alone con- stituted quite a show. The “Kentry Stor" wagon with several Eiks disguised :s reu- bens ereated lots of amusement aiong the line of march, as did several clowns on don- keys, which for the oceaslon had had thelr ears transformed into aatlers. Behind this section came the fire department with its apparatus gaily decked in the Elks colors, the rear of the column being brought up by floats bearing displays of business houses, The streets were crowded all along the line of march and all day the city was thronged with visitors from surrounding towns, who took advantage of the ono-fare for the round trip rate offered by the rall- roads for carnival week: The exercises at the Driving park began ot 2 o'clock and by this time fully 5,000 pao- ple were assembled there. When Mayor Morgan called upon Rev. Henry DeLong to deliver a prayer beforé the speaking evory seat in the large graund stand was oc- cupled. Mayor Morgan in intfoducing Rev. John Willlams of St. Baruabas' church, Omaha, called attention 'to the importance of the day. The subject taken by Rev. Mr. Wil- llams for his address was “Labor Condi- tions of Today.” In opening he sa!d 10 es- peclal credit was due him for being on the side of labor, as there were several reasons why he should. In the first place, he sald, he had been a mechanic himself n Lis earlier days. Another reason was because he was an American citizen and the perm- anence of this country's Institutions de- pended upcn the contemtment of labor and its proper reward, It has #ald that the church had no use for ring man, bus this, he said, If It .was true was the fault of the laboring man. If the churches do ot care for the laboring man it is because the laboring man does not care for the churches. The laboring man can revolutionize this. Let h'm become & member of the church, the question of the brotherhood of man. The unions should widen their horizon and pay more attention to the welfare of their fel- low workmen. become through age or other causés unable to work. Advaniages of Organisation, Hon. Emmet Tinley was the next speaker and took as his subject ““Advantages of Or- ganized Labor.” Labor unions, he said, were the outgrowth of necessity. Work ng men in this race of life had to face com- binations of capital and this brought about the necessity of labor unions. To be suc- cessful the union of labor must be as strong and loyal as the unfon of capital. If not it would not be effective.

They should to a great extent be for the benefit of the families, they should strive to teach their members to give their fam- ilies greater opportunities by education. The unions also teach that children should be in the nursery of the schoolroom and not in the sweatshops. The organization of labor mean: ppler homes, greater com- forts for the laboring man, greater intelli- gence among the working classes and con- sequently the development of stronger men and women, physically, mentally and mor- ally. The real leaders of labor today are not the loud tongued blatherskite or the doemagogue, but men with brains and in con- sequence labor through its leaders was able to take the rank which it is entitled to. Postmaster Hazelton spoke on ‘‘Labor Liegisiation.” The first requirement of liberty, he sdld, must be the resnect for {law and a willingness to be governed. Some people from thelr early surroundings and teachings were opposed to any form of government and formed a dangerous and |injunction.” undesirable element. They should be first taught that the government is in reality their friend. The first requ'site for a good government is that a man should be willing to be governed. No government by direct legislation can make any set of men rich or happy, the laws must be such as fall equally upon the big and the small, upon the rich and the poor, such to glve every man an equal chance for his liveli- hood. Legislation other than this would be cl 1 ation. The making of gen- eral laws is all that a government ought to do. Referring to the question of strikes he said that among union labor there should be no room for mob law or anarchy. Union men were more vitally interested than any other class in downing anarchy. The speaking was brought to a close by a who told of the labor conditions in Council Bluffs short talk by Rev. Henry DeLong, in the early fifties. Following the exercises the program of sports was carried out. The automobile race which had promised to be a feature of the had to be called off for lack of program, entries. Besides the sports there were various form of amusement for the crowd, including a platform for dancing, was well patron!.

Nearly 1,000 season tickets have been disposed of and nearly as many books of coupon tickets. ‘While there are some finishing touches yet to be put here and there in some of the booths, practically everything was ready for the opening yesterday affers noon. It Is generally conceded ,that the busipess people of Council Bluffs have done themselves and their city proud, and the decorations and general appearance of the booths with thelr elaborate displays excels anything ever offered to the pub. lc In this section of the country. The free attractions offered by the man- agement proved to be all that had been guaranteed for them and were thoroughly ! Wilson enjoyed by the crowd. The Ferris wheel proved a most popular source of amuse- ment and it was kept busy revolving un+ til the gates closed at midnight. The Streets of Indla offers a lengthy and varied entertalnment, including a npumber of turns never seen here before, and it was well patronized both afternoon and even- ing. In the evening the show was taxed to its capacity and standing room was even et a premium. The Streets of Cairo also proved a drawing feature and caught the crowd.

The day was fine and a great crowd turned out. The parade was longer and contained more men, representing & larger number of trade organizations than on any previous year. More than 3,000 per- sons were in line, the major portion of them walking and in uniform, but many in carriages, and with a large number of girls and women fn carriages. There were four bands in the parade. About fifty organiza- tions were represented. The only feature of the parade that was out of the ordinary was the references to the strike on the telephone system of the lowa company. There was & banner carried bearing this in- scription: ““To be or not to be. It's up to the lowa. Organized labor has come to stay.” A large transparency on a wagon lad & map of lowa, showing the location of Des Moines and Counc!l Bluffs, with lines drawn to St. Paul and the location of Red Oak, the home of Judge McPherson, with the statement ““The lowa's long distance This referred to the injunction of the strikers in Des Molines by Judge Sanborn, at St. Pavl. The parade was somewhat marred by an accident, an 8-year-old boy, David | Levich, being struck by a horse and run over, his leg. being broken. There was the usual line of sports and plenic for the day. The address before the laboring men was at the state fair grounds and was given by 8. J, Kent of Lincoln. Mr. Kent denounced goversment by in- junction and his remarks on the local con- ditlons were heartily cheered. He said the granting of injunctions by the judiclary was judicial tyranny, nothing more nor less. He argued that the members of labor or- gaulzations had the same right by pass the store of the man who was not thelr friend as had the 0dd Fellows or Masons or Wood- men to trade with their brothers. Refer- ring to the strike of the telephone girls he said that no threats, no intimidations had been used and that the chivalrous fight of , |the men for the rights of the girls was the more necessary since they were girls. emphasized the necessity for organization, the higher civilization created and the brosdening and _ennobling influence such organizations have upon their members.

At the same time it is known that a large number will be on hand who will in: baving the platform made without any reference to the ut.erance of the party. The democratic congressional convention is to be held in Des Molnes tomorrow, but the question of candidates for the con- gressional nomination and for the state ticket has not yet been considered. It is belleved the conventions will be but poorly attended. There is not a particle of foundation for the statements which have been sent out from Des Moines to the effect that the presidency of the lowa State college at Ames has been offered to Secretary of President Roosevelt's cabinet, Individual members of the board have thought of Secretary Wilson in connection Wwith this matter, but the board has taken no action and has not even considered the presidency question. The objection to ‘Wilson as to some of the others who have been mentioned as possible candidates, is that they are too old. The members of the board declare they want a man for president who is young and active and hes growing qualities. No meeting of the board was held'last week and none will be held for at least two weeks and it 1s uncertain whether the board at the next meeting will take up the matter of the presidency. There has been no agreement as yet to put off selection of the president until a certain time in the future, most of the members of the board preferring to take up the matter at once. The public schools in Des Moines and many other cities of Yowa open for the fall term tomorrow. For the first time a compulsory school attendance law is in force and it includes the selection of truant officors to see to it that the law is strictly enforced. In Des Moines the school board has already taken steps for the appoint- of all children of school age and these for comparison with the enrollment. The vaccination orders are to be strictly e forced in Des Moines and Iowa towns and citles, and it s hoped thus to keep the state free from an epedemic. An accident happened on the Northwest- ern railroad at Stanwood last Sunday night which resulted in one man being killed and two seriously injured. One stock train was allowed to follow another and when the first train stopped the other crashed into it and fourteen stockmen were in- jured.

Among the Safe From Summer Complaints All mammas, and papas too for that matter, dread the heat of summer with it's danger for the little folks, especially the babies. It is simply heart-breaking to read year after year about the great death rate among children caused by the summer's heat. Yet it is easy to protect the infants against all summer complaints, because we know that all these fearful perils have their beginning in stomach and bowel troubles, and we have a perfect family medicine that will keep the delicate machinery in a child’s body clean, regular and in healthy working order in the hottest weather — CASCARETS Candy Cathartic. The plump, bouncing, crowing baby shown here is a CASCARET baby. He feels that way winter and summer.

E. Straln of Whiting, Monona county, was probably fatally shot at Whiting today by Fred Carns, a thresh- ing laborer. The trouble arose in the afternoon, when Carns struck a fellow la- borer over the head with a pitchfork. J. Biehl, the foreman of the gang, then at- tacked Carns, administering a severe beat- ing. Later a warrant was sworn out for the arrest of Carns, and when Sherift Strain attempted to serve it, Carns shot him in the abdomen with a shotgun. It is thought he will dle. Carns escaped. A request was made this evening upon Sherift Jackson for bloodhounds to track Carns. A posse under J. T. Pritchard of Onawa has left that city to search for Carns. They have bloodhounds with them.

At 1:20 o'clock his lifeless body was run over by the Chicago & Northwestern Portland ex- press, going east, in Fairview addition to Nevada. The engineer states that he saw the boy sitting on the bridge while yet sdme distance away, but that he supposed the boy would get off the track before the train approached. The engine whistled, but the boy did not move and it was then too late to stop, the engineer stating that there appeared to be no life in the body when struck by the train. It was evident the boy had accidenally shot himself while sitting on the bridge and his body was left in an upright position. Great Western Buys Terminals.
