_ ELEPHONE 96. THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1903, . CURRENT COUNCIL MAY LOSE SCHOOL FOR DEAF State Board of Oontrol Intimates it Will Favor Remova', IMPOSES ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE CONDITIONS More Land, Not Too ¥Flat and Not Too Hilly, Trackage, but Not Too Many Rafironds and Trolley Lines to the City. The chances for Council Eluffs retaining the Btate School for the Deaf are not of the Urightest. This was made manifest yes- terday by the statements of the members of the Btate Board of Centrol. While not openly advocating the removal of the in- stitution from Council Biuffs the Board of Control has surrounded the proposition to keep the school here with certain require- ments that may be almost impossible to meet. A number of prominent members of the Commercial club who interviewed the Board of Control yesterday on the subject were not at all impredsed with the manner in which they were received or with the as- surances they received. In fact, the deie- gation was Inclined to the opinion after the interview that the Board of Control would prefer, if anything, that the school be re- moved elsewhere, as urged by the politi- clans of Des Moines. Joh# Cownle, Judge Robinson and Judge Kinne, comprising the State Board of Con- trol, arrived in the city late Sunday even- ing, and were at once driven to the School for the Deaf, whére they spent the night and part of yesterday making thelr semi- anmual inspection. Beéfore leaving the oity they were met by a delegation of leading cltizens, all members of the Commercial club, and were asked their views concern- | ing the effort belng made at Des Molnes to remove the iustitution from here, What Board Wants, The delegation was headed by Mayor Morgan and H. W. Binder, secretary of | the executive committee of the Commercial club. Others In the delegation were H. G McGee, ¥. J. Day, Dr. H. B. Jennings, E. | W. Walters, . R. Davis, H. A. Quinn, | Alderman C. W, McDonald, C. M. Harl and | W. H. Kimball. President John Cownle of the board acted as spokesman for the other members. He sald that the school must have more room and a better location, and that the board was unalterably opposed to the further ex- | penditure of any money on the institution where it now Is. He sald that in order to retain the school here a site consisting of not less than 400, and if possible 600 acres, must be secured within the city lmits or on a trolley line; that it must not be hemmed in by rallroad tracks, but yet It | halt feet over the sidewalk. Nearly an BLUFFS. the board came as a surprise to the citi- zens forming the delegation. They garded the conditions imposed by the board as a plain intimation that the institution would be removed from Council Bluffs. Objections to Present Loeation. The present location, Judge Cownle de- clared, was most unsultable for many rea- sons. It was too isolated, and then again there was not sufficlent land. The property comprised but 150 acres, while Judge Cownle insisted that the institution ought to have at least 400 If not 600 acres. Re- garding the distance from the city Judge | Cownle sald that the school ought to be | within the city limits or at least on ja trolley ‘line, 8o that the teachers and pu- pils could visit the city when they wanted to without having to make the Jjourney over a muddy road. Judge Cownle ad- vanced a number of other objections to the present site and impressed the delegation strongly with the belfef that so far as he was concerned he would prefer to see the school removed elsewhere. Since the State Board of Control was or- ganized and placed in charge of the state institutions the merchants of Council Bluffs have derived but little if any benefit from the School for the Deaf being fn this vi- cinity, as practically' all of the supplies for the institute have been purchased else- where under contract, ‘Wanted. 1,000 turke; J.

DISCUSS THE SIGN ORDINANCE Counefl Committee Puts in Afternoon Without Renching Definite The committee of the whole of the city council met yesterday afternoon to con- sider the sign ordinance, and the session proved a somewhat stormy one. The debate over the ordinance was more or less acrimonious, several of the alder- men appearing to be under the impression that there was some motive back of its introduction. The committee adjourned without accomplishing anything beyond de- clding that no swinging signs would be permitted, and that no sign should be per- mitted to extend more than six and one- hou: of the session was consumed in dis- cussing whether it would not be just as safe to permit signs to extend seven feet as six and one-half feet over the walks. It was also decided that no sign should | exceed two feet in helght and one foot in thickness. Circular signs will be tolerated, but trangular devices will not. Interesting features of the session were the several bouts between Aldermen Mec- Donald and Casper, the latter accusing the representative of the silk stocking ward with having some ulterior motive in intro- must be near enough to the railroads to have a switch spur run to the institution, #0 that supplies for It might be unloaded right at the school; the land must not be hilly, meither must it be muddy, and the cost must not exceed the regular price of ordinary farm land. ‘Where 400 or 600 acrés of suitable land can be procured within the city limits or on a trolley line the delegation was unable to say, and the stringent requirements laid by 81,50 School Shoes That Will Wear All solid—the best oak soles and box calf uppers.

The meeting of the city council last night was short and uneventful and the sign ordinance which had provoked so much acrimonious discussion at the session of the committee of the whole In the afternoon was not even mentioned. The principal matter before the council was the repairing of West Broadway from Thirteenth street to the approach of the motor company’'s bridge. That Broadway, the principal thoroughfare between Council Bluffs and Omaha is in an almost Impass- able condition so far as vehicle traffic is concerned was admitted by all of the al- dermen but where the funds are to come from to place it in proper condition {s a question which none of them could answer. It was suggested that possibly the county authorities might lend their ald and con- sent to the portion of the county road ! tund derived from the levy within the city limits being expended on the thoroughfare. Aldermen McDonald and Lougee were ap- pointed a special committee to confer with the county supervisors at their meeting in December. The Speclalty Manufacturing company of North Main street, asked that it be ex- empted from city taxes for a period of five years as provided in the city ordl- nances and the request was referred to the Judiclary committee, The council adjourned to next Monday night. Nothing Done on Library. No business was transacted at the ad- journed ‘meeting of the Board of Trustecs of the public library last night for lack of a quorum. In addition to President Rohrer, Trustees Cleaver, Stewart and | Galvin were the only members present. An informal discussion on the plan of the proposed Carnegle llbrary building was held and a communication from Tru tee Bender, who was recently in Kansas City, describing the Carncgle library there, was read. From Kansas City Mr. Bender wrote he was going to Guthrle, Ok, where he intended td Inspect the Carnegie | library.

In almost every nstance a severe cold may be warded off by taking this remedy freely as soon as the first in- dication of the cold appears. There is no danger in giving it to children, for it con- tains no harmful substance. It is pleasant to take—both adults and chlidren like it. Buy it and you will get the best. It always cures. D, V.

(From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Ia., Nov. 16.—(Special.)— For the second time Drake university has had trouble over plaglarism in the contest for @ place in the state oratorical contest. John W. Booth, the young man who last week won the right to represent the col- lege at the contest, has been charged with plaglarism and admits the truth of the charge. He won the contest on a fine ora- tion on “The Sublimity of Great Convic- tions.” It was discovered almost immedi- ately afterwards by a fellow student that the oration followed closely the lines of an essay In a book entitied “Portraits and Principles,” and that there was unmistak- able evidence that the young man had secured his ideas from this essay, The college faculty caused investigation to be made and verified the story and the coliege orator admits having secured his ideas from the book. He will not be allowed to | enter the state contest. Last year the contest was won by an orator who was afterwards convicted of plagiarism and as a result Drake was not allowed to enter the state contest and the winner of the home contest soon after retired from the college with his course unfinished. Booth came from Colorado, where he entered the state high school contest, representing Col- orado Springs, and he states tl the ora- tion he used here was the same as the one he used In Colorado with some slight changes. New Thing in Labor Report. The blennial report of the state labor commissioner, just printed and ready for circulation, contains a feature that is en- tirely new In state labor reports. There are several hundred pages devoted to set- ting out in detall and completely the tr? agreements entered into between the va ous classes of laboring men in the state and thelr employers. There are over 100 of these and indicate that they have gen- erally been prepared with much care and fullness. The trade agreements were se- cured by the state labor commissioner as he went about the state securing informa- tion in regard to factories antl the enforce- ment of the laws. At the same time the report contains a larger amount of infor- mation in regard to the progress of manu- factures and the profits of industries than any previous report ever issued, and a large part is devoted to the encouragement - of new industries. o Talks on Commerce The subject selected by Governor Cun mins for his Boston address In December is “Our Forelgn Commerce,” and It ix ex pected that on this tople he will outline his views ad to the proper method of secur- ing a larger share of the commerce and trade of the world for the people of the United States. His address will be in Bos- ton' on December 10. State Capitol O \ The work of repairing and remodeling the state capitol is far from complete as yet, and today the state capitol was cold be- cause the steam heat had to be turned off in making connections for the new heating plant. The bollers were set to replace the old ones several ‘weeks ago, but on Batur- day the steam was cut off to make the connections. It was expected the work would all be done before today, but it could not be. The repair work which has been going on at the state house for many months will take until in Deces r to finish, and it is probable that not &ll the work will be out of the way before the legislature meets in Janulry.
