Our little ship of state up nt the
city building , Saturday evening ,
started out with a fair prospect. Not
abrcczo wa.i Stirling , notn ripple was
npparcnt upon the surface. The roll
was called and nil responded with the
exceptions of Nato Phillips , who came
in sobn after , nnd Alderman Unthank ,
irlio is , wo are sorry to learn , still
confined to his liouso with illness.
Jlr. "Vaiighim announced that they
'Lad met for two purposes only : To
take into consideration the abandon
ing of the old city charter and the
grading of Binds street , but that if
ilia council were disposed they might
attend to any general business. It
was decided by the council to transact
any business that might conio before
the body. Mr. JJIoomer being pres
ent called attention to the recent de
cision of Judge Loofbouro and
thought that to save the trouble
council should levy a tax
as voted by the people for establishing
a frco library in ourcity. Mr. Ilolmea ,
city attorney , said that so far as the
city was concerned Judge Loafborou'a
decision was final unless they saw fit
to take an appeal. Mr. Phillips
wished to know what , in the opinion
of tlio ciiy attorney , would bo result
the of an nppcal. Mr. Jlohncs said that
they had drawn the first blood and ho
naiv no way if the city continued the
contract to cscapo legal death.
Mr. Itloomor said ho had
drawn up a resolution
that lie thought should pass.
! Chis caused a breeze that soon grow
into a tcinptost. Hon. J. M. Phil-
lipi , who'us all know , is very hard of
hearing not wishing his friend Bloom
er to say much unless ho hoard it
came forward and leaned over the
Tail bcsido Mr. Bloomor. At this
3Ir. Bloomer turned on Mr. Phillips
and remarked to him that lie need
jiot trouble himself to sharpen his
saw that this was HOMO of his soup
Ixmo. This touched "Undo John"
and ho appealed to the city council to
bo allowed the privilege of entering
the council chamber in a city whore
ho had made Ins homo for moro than
nineteen years without being insulted I
Ijy n man who always
liaa gone oil' half cockod.
If Mr. Bloomer Imd ? n.ythinn ; to
settle with him ho wns ready to step
outside and settle it. The wind from
both quarters soon subsided , and bus
iness wont on , the council voting to
rcfor the question of levying iv library
tax to a conunittoo to report noxtFri-
tlay night. Several bills were taken
up and allowed ; amongst thorn was
tlio bill of the Chicago lumber com
15 pany , which had boon referred ,
amounting to S7G0.04 ; also the bill of
Jiobbington , amounting to $275.02.
A petition of J. W. Porcgoy nnd oth
ers to allow Pat Laoy to keep a saloon
at the park during the coming races
was read. A petition of d. L. Jacobs
and fifty others inviting the mayor
and council when they had
time to take a snilt of Indian
creek , and then adopt HO/HO /
measure to purify it , claiming that it
Imd become the cesspool for nil the
filth of every iiamo and nature and
the hist resting place of all animals
that die in our city. This was rote -
to the health committee with
"nstruction to do anything iu their
to sweeten Indian crook for
Jacobs. A report was received
Field , chief of police , ro-
Toiler's case. Poor
'lias certainly boon brought to
thia time , for Iho officer reid -
id that the evidence shows , so far
jj-j has been able to ascertain , that
Tier has boon partial to
( ay girls" houses , Ho has
custom from liollo Clover
given it to another house , and
bcon scon coming out of one
hose houses with a girl's hat on his
d instead of bis own. Further-
ii'foro , lie had allowed , ono of the girls
to put his policeman's cap on find
taken hpr'a on his boat with him. lie
Imd bcsido been scon on the streets
intoxicated Mr. Dawsou moved that
the report bo received and that Tim
Toner bo discharged from the police
.force.
.force.Mr.
Mr. Vauglian thought it should bo
referred to u committee , but the coun
cil wasn't looking through these kind
of oyo-lighta , and Mr. Dawson's mo
tion prevailed.
Mr. Churchill , to whom was referred
the petition of Jamca Browstor and
others , asking council to submit the
question 10 voters whether or not the
charter should bo abandoned , reported
that after investigating the fact * and
the law tlint it became tlio duty of the
city council to take some action on the
premises. Ho ollbrcd a resolution
that an election bo hold and this quos-
aubmittcd at a time to bo determined
upon by the mayor , who shall Imvo
power to select all judges and super
intend the election generally.
The resolution was adopted.
U. II , Metcalf presented the follow
ing : "Your committee to whom was
referred the matter of change of
i'rado on Bluffs and Pierce streets
from \\illow avenue to Ohm avenue ,
would respectfully report that , after
an examination of said
streets , rent
would recommend that the
present
ordinance , or rod line City

Glen avenue to station 4 of baid profile
aor centre grade , and that the upper
nnd lower sides of said streets be
made , respectively , ono foot higher
than said contro grade from station 4
to station 2. Wo would recommend
that the city construct a substantial
stone wall , with iron railing on top of
said wall , to correspond with 80 feet
above the piano of reference nt station
2 , J)7 feet nbovo the piano of reference
nt station 3 , nnd 99J feet nbovo the
plane of reference at station 4 , and
that the grade of the cast half of said
streets between said streets 2 and
4 correspond with the top of said
wall. Tlio west half said streets to
bo 70 feet nbovo the piano of ref orenco

recommendations for nltorntions of

tion 11 , contro fill 4 foot ; nt station
12 , centre fill 2J feet ; ntGIon nvenuc ,

'l ho committee beg leave to add that
before reducing the report to writing ,
most of the parties directly interested
were consulted , nnd they were
generally satisfied with the cuter
or fill opposite their respective proper
ties as recommended. To avoid any
fuluro disputes the committee would
ndviso that the parties whoso grndcs
nro changed should bo requested to
file their written consent thereto , but
that the refusal to give such consent ,
should not prevent thu establishment
of the grndo. In view of the future
growth nnd improvement of the city
the committee would sny that the
practice of making deep cuts through
the blufl'.i for the opening of streets
cannot bo too severely condemned ,
that while n few lots may bo bene
fited the great bulk of ndjncont property
erty- would bo fiovoroly damaged if not
entirely destroyed , while the beauty
of thu blullb , thu moat picturesque part
of the city would bo very much
lessened , in the particular cane of
Bluff nnd Pierce street there is no
public necessity for the deep cut pro
posed as it can never bu used for busi
ness purposes. Thu only parties in
terested thpso who own the adjacent
property and who would bo damaged
by the change. The committee thuro-
fore think that thu grade should bu
established so ns to servo these whoso
property nlono is affected nnd the
committee has acted upon tlio prin
ciple as near as poaaiblo. Horace

Tin : BKB believes the nbovo propo
sition .so far ns it rolaocs to tlio es
tablishment of grade ought to bo sat
isfactory to nil concerned , but it
would ndvico council to consider
that part relating to the building of
a stone wall by the city along the
routo. Mr. Phillips said ho believed
that the report should bo adopted.
All citizens living thoru ought to be
satisfied. Ho lashed Alderman -
dorman Kullorx pretty se
verely until "Keller looked ns if ho
didn't have n friend on oarth. At the
conclusion of Mr. Phillips nddrcss
Mr. Dawson moved that the report bo
referred to a committee of the wholu
house , to bo noted upon at their next
regular mooting. At this juncture
Mr. Dawson again arose and moved
that Chief Field be > exonerated from
all blame and the mayor censured for
publicly inaking the charge against
Mr. Fiuld that , lie did nt ono of the
council meetings. Nnto Phillips
moved that the resolution bo laid on
the tnblo. Mr. D.nvaon moved it
bo adopted. Mr. Keller seconded
the motion , Mayor Yaughan sprang
to his feet and made n most eloquent
appeal to the council. Wo can not
give his oxnot words but wo will give
them in substance : "My grave nnd
reverend seniors , partners of my toil ,
myfortuno and my fame : Hear mo
for my cause nnd bo silnnt that you
mny hear. Believe mo for mine honor
and have respect to mine honor that
you may believe. Censuio mo in your
wisdom nnd awake your senses that
you may the bettor judge. .If there
bo any in this council , any dear friend
of Chief Fields , to him T say that
Vnughan'a love to Field was no less
than his. If then , that friend
demand why Vaiighnn rose against
Field. This is my nnswcr : "Not that
I loved Field less , but that I loved
Council Bluffs moro. As Field loved
the Bluffs I weep for him , as ho was
fortunate in keeping pence out nt
Ypiikorman'fl Garden on thu 17th day
of August. Irojoicunt it. As ho has
boon a valiant and olliciont offi
cer I honor him. Hut ns lie was
ambitious I did undertake his down-
fall. I must say it is time the city
council and the mayor ceased this
fight. Field has no bettor friend in
this city than myself. In calling the
attention of the city council to his
conduct on that memorable August
day I Jbeliovod I was doing my duty
as mayor of this city. " Keller began
to show signs of shrinkm" ,
Daweon got behind a palm-leaf fan ! )
Nato Phillips waxed bold. The
mayor continued , "Who is there in
the council who does
not love the
Bluffs ? Speak ) For him have 1CI
offended who amongst this intelligent
assembly who would not stand up for
John W. Chapman nnd
our now line
of Hurdio coaches ? " Speak ! For
him have I offended I pause for n
reply. " This speech was ubly deliv
ered , and had the desired effect , Mr.
DawBon sat motionluss.Mr. Churchill 1
said nota word , Mr. Phillips reached
for thn ice pitcher and
passed Keller
a drink. Alderman Keller then arose
and with head dipped at an angle of
about 23 degrees bccjan. That I did
hike Borne part in this resolution exonerating -
onorating Mr , Field is true. That xI
did intend the sting for the flesh of
our honored mayor is true. I oiler
him iny excuse. It lias boon given out
and oft repeated that our honored
mayor on the rialto and in several
places in our city lias openly accused
thia council of being Noodles ,
Mr. Vnughan-Tho accusation isfalse.
I have four houses and lots in the vicin
ity of Dohniiey'a opera house , mid nI
will give them to the county supervisors -
ors of thii county for the benefit of
the poor , tohavonny citizen produced
who will swear under oath that I over
charged you with being Noodles. On
the contrary , gentlemen , I believe you
to bo n fair sample of the business men
of this city. The , story is n kiso
fabrication.
Mr. Keller Then I have no moro
to say. I nm through ,
Mr. Dawson wiped off his chin nnd
said that ho started in good faith to
exonerate Chief Field nnd ccniuro the
mayor. Ho had done RO bcoauso
the i mayor had treated them
like school boys long enough
anil so far na ho was concerned ho was
sick ot it. llo was willing lo bury
the tomahawk nnd take n whiff of the
pipe of peace. Ilo complimented the
papers , saying he wanted them to crit-
ici/.o thoduinga of the council in nfnir
way. . Milt ho did not want any little
distnbanco that took place put in TIIK
Bur , ni it would bo scattered nil over
the United States. Ifo had stood by
the mnyor nil through thh trying or
deal , He moved that the quarrel bo
ended by laying tne resolution on tlio
tnblo , The motion was seconded by
S. S. Keller , democratic member from
the Second ward , and peace wai de
clared. Mr. I'hillips then olfercd the
following resolution : Thnt whereas , on
account of the high mo of water last
spring , the city had bcon put to ngrcat
deal of oxponsu in takingcaro of thuso
driven from home , He it resolved that
the mnyor nnd the gentlemen of the
city council servo without compensa
tion until the fust of January , A. I ) .

BLOOMER SCHOOL.
HOMB Ol' Till : UKHBMOXIKS ATTKNIItNl !
Abnu early hour Friday ovcning
the citizens of Council Bluffs mani
fested their appreciation of the grand
work accomplished by our schools
by wending their way to the new
Bloomer school building. Prof.
Olkern ( band had preceded them , and
as the crowd filed in played n beauti
ful air. Promptly at 7&0 o'clock the
band entered the building and took
up n position in the roar of the spac
ious platform , nnd were immediately
followed by the prcsidontof the board ,
L. F. Murpliy , escorting Hon.
James F. Wilson , Hon. W. H. M.
I'nsoy , Hon. I ) . 0. Bloomer ,
Judge Loofborou nnd Col. Dailoy.
The following gentlemen were afterwards -
wards invited by Spencer Smith to
take scats upon the platform : lion.
J. P. Cassady , Herman Brown , 0.
F. Driscoll , Charles Straub , Charley
Gr.iwl. Thu band played mi opening
piece , after which ( lie president of thu
school board , L. F. Murphy , in n very
pleasant and unassuming way deliv
ered the welcoming address briefly.
At the conclusion of Mr. Murphy's
remarks Rev. F. T. "Webb invoked
the divine blessing. Mr. K. E. Aylus-
worth wan then introduced and spoke
briefly , giving the audience some idea
of the inception and consummation of
the grand 'work. ' Mr. Aylcsworfh
was frequently applauded and con
cluded in paying n beautiful tribute -
buto to Hon. D. 0. Bloomer ,
after whom the school building
had boon named. It was then an
nounced that Mr. nnd Mrs. I. M.
Troynor would fnvor the audience
with vocal mimic. They sang a selec
tion appropriate to the occasion. Af
ter the duett Mr. D. 0. Bloomer , the
gentleman whose untiring zeal in bo-
half of the building of schools in this
city has bcon over recognized , was in
troduced. Mr. Bloomer was heartily
applauded. Ho thanked thu audience
for the honor bestowed upon him nnd
briefly reviewed the school work that
had boon done in this city , in conclu-
aion Mr. Bloomer said ;
"There have bcon criticisms of late
upon our whole public school system ,
and in ono of the lending periodicals
common schools have been declared n
failuro. Such n declaration is simply
absurd nnd preposterous. They are '
not failures , but n great success. They
nro educating a nation of freemen for
the higher duties of American citizen '
!
ship. Thsy may bo improved , and
should bo , and will bo. Each year
they will extend wider their beneficial
influence and grow bolter and bottor.
They nro the colleges of the people ,
open alike to nil ; ami that they may
over prosper throughout the extent ot
our broad land is certainly the prayer .
of over true lover of his country and
of humanity. "
Prof. Farnham , superintendent of .
our schools , was then introduced , and
gpoko briefly ot our schools and tench-
era. As we gathered nil the different
materials nnd had them fashioned
into this building by skilled
workmen , so wo must em
ploy skilled teachers to fashion
the minds of our children. The work
accomplished' in uuilding this edifice
was grand , but there was still n moro
important work to bu done by the
teachers of our city. For what they
had done in the past ho commended
them to the favorable consideration of
the citizens of Council Bluffs. At
the close of Mr. Farnham's address ,
the Misses Hewitt and Messrs. Pen-
Holland Westorvol rendered n charm-
ing quartette. Hon. W. II , M. Pusoy
was then introduced. Mr. Pusoy
seemed in good humor , nnd delivered
n very oloqliont address ,
lion. James F. Wilson waa the next
speaker. Mr. Wilson is a medium
sized man , with short gray hair that
stands up from his forehead as An
drew Jackson's is represented lie
thinks a great deal of his country and
tier schools , and doesn't , wo think ,
forgot Wilson , Thcro was not a particle . -
ticlo of politics mixed with the ad
dress , but from the beginning to the .
close it was filled with rich , pointed
thoughts , n little ubstrttso nt first , yet
it wus excellent. Ho gave n full his
tory of our state school system , and
an idea of what the tax-payers have
to carry when wo consider the edu
cation of our children is costing near
ly four millions per annum. We
never mot Mr. Wilson , but really believe -
lievo ho would make a very good
United States Senator.
Mr.Colbins.ofthoMothodistchurch ,
pronounced the benediction , nnd the
large audience dispersed , having en
joyed an evening long to bo remem
bered.

Both the lady contestants for the

young lady nbout III vtars oU , and
claims to bo the champion of America ,
although we understand that she hns
bcon beaten by Miss Nellie Cook , of
California. She is about five feet
six inches tall , weighs nbout 120
pounds , n light biunctte , fair skin nnd
quitca Irgo oyca. She came , origin
ally , from the Old Granite stnto in
Now Knglrnd Mrs. Burke , who is
to run against Mis' ? Pinco , is nbout

weight. She docs not claim to bo a
professional.
Mr. Jacobs , who is in charge of
Mrs. Burke , is n thorough horseman.
The manner in which the two ladies
change horses is very different. Miss
Pinoo. at the end of her second
mile , liai the fresh horse driven up
and jumps from ono to the other ,
while Mrs. Buiko gets entirely off.
Both ladies are confident of success.

Mr. Fiiul , coroner of Poltnwotta-
inio county attacks the reporter of
Tins BKB ( luitc severely. Wo do not
intend to discuss the matter with Mr.
FiUil. It was very unfortunate that
anything nbout the suicide should
have ever got lost and when it is said
that thu loiter that had no name to it
was the only thing by which identi
fication could bo established wo sim
ply say that the mans slippers , hat ,
coat , pantaloons , vest , wntch chain ,
revolver , nil these articles were found
on his person , and Mr. Faul has thorn
or Mr. Morgan buried them. The
letter that wo stated that got mis
placed was not the German letter but
the ono that ho wrote to
Tin : Br.i : at Omaha in re
gard to saving the letter.
All wo can say to the coroner is this :
If the people of this city bcliftvo that
he thought the reporter of THU BUK
was editor of or reporter for the Gor
man paper of this city , nnd was nt
his house on Sunday soliciting items
for that paper , why did ho como to
TUB Bci : office , fetch the letter and
dictate an particle to go into our
local column , nnd call the next day
and request us lo telephone and toll
them to save the letter. Mr. Faul
says that nothing is left to identify
this man. Ho has in his possession a
revolver ; there waa found the man's
hat , coat , pantaloon" and vest. Wo
say in conclusion that wo are sorry
that this all happened , nnd also sorry
that the Nonpniiel , which had Adam
Forepaugh throw on the canvas these
words , "Tho Nonpariol is the best
paper in the west , " should , for the
misnr.iblu pittance of two pounds of
honey , allow its columns to bo used
to villify the character of ono who is
obliged wholly to depend upon the
confidence of this community for the
support of himself and family.
