A prominent and well Informed republican
politician and former ofllco holder , UviUK In
thoconlral nirtof ttiostn'.c , wns In the city
jestcrdny and was asked by a iiin : reprc-
senlatlvo In regard to Iowa politics and the
situation of the prohibitory law. lie said : ,
" 1 think there nro now good - . rounds for
believing that n local option bill will pas not
only the senate , but the house of the
Incoming lot-Mature. For the first
two or thrco woelw after tuo elec
tion there scorned to bo no pros
pect of nny change. The Impracticable and
extreme prohibitionists were the first to DO
heard , and thu republican ineinrora from the
Interior counties circled by prohibition con
stituents did not at first ronllzt ) the tro-
menuous snotlment In fuvor of modification
that exists even among iho most earnest
and consistent prohibitionists ; hut In the
last three or four weeks that soiiti-
mcnt has developed until now It is over-
whelming. Conservative prohibitionists see
tlmt any further delay will do trronar.iblo
harm I ) the tomperanre cause and result in
thn complete domination of slate politico by
the h uor Interests. The country press Is
mostly in favor of modification , and I have
seen In thn last few days letters noth
private nnd published from some of the most
actlvo temperance men In the state urging
.such action.
"Sonutor Englo , the union labor srnator
from Jasper county , who voted against
a licnnso bill two years ago , has de
clared his Intention of introducing one
this winter. It Is understood that
Senator Catch Is also convinced of the ne
cessity of voting for a modification , nnd I
know of thieo or four other senators whom I
am satisfied will take the same stand , even if
thu republican caucus decides that the ver
dict of the last election must be Ignoien.
In the house , wooro the republicans nro in
the majority nnd where the democrats
must get four auditionnl voles , the
situation is hardly rnoro doubtful ; but I
know that a larijo proportion of the ropuoll-
can majority thcre'bellovo that the salvation
of their party and ultimate success of temperance -
peranco depends upon thonassaioot a license
law , nnd they are being enbouragcd to do ,
clsivc action by many of the party loaders
and thu press.
"Tho spoakership , over which there
is usually n very warm contoit , is
practically conceded to W. O. Mitchell of
Adams county. There , are only two other
candidates , who are inexperienced , wiiak
and unpopular. By a curious combination of
circumstances , only seven republican mem
bers wcro ro-oleclcd lo the house and not ono
of any prominence. " .

"I ! I Were Czar of Omaha" was the
ubiquitous subject discussed last night
at The Club by Lawyer Ed H. Scott.
The attendance of The Club , the members
of which assembled nt the Llningor Art gal
lery , wns not largo , but thu speaker handled
his subject In such a manner as to excite con
siderable interest and attention and subse
quent , dobnto.
In his introductory remarks Mr. ricott
said if ho were czar of Omaha no would
annex Council Bluffs to the city , as no czar-
dom was comple'.o without n place for han-
Ishment. Ho would abolish the overhead
electric wires , as that problem had oeon
solved twenty years ago bv European cities.
He would hnvo school houses erected
in the center of blocks , in order that
the school children would have a breaming
spot and n place to romp and play upon. Ilo
would have all the streets line Farnam , as
ho admired the original plat of the city.
Ho would have Omaha put nsldo its
childish ways , because iho town was twonty-
ono years of ago and should got down lo
inorjrsolid thoughts and ways. Ho would
have something eUo besides hog statistics to
show lo iho world. Ho would encourage art
nnd lileraluro to go with these sta-
tlstics. Ho would awaken the busi
ness men , for they were asleep , and
lolling a great stream of wealth from ttio
larijo lorriiory west of tno city go tiirough
mo citv to Chicago. Ho would have a spirit
of unanimity among thorn. Ho would bo
satisfied with locating n public library nt
some otbor point if the desired spot could
not bo obtained. Ho would have ino strcot
railways extended. Ho would hnvo the poor
dcrivo'somo benefits from public corporations
and monopolies.
He would have something better than the
penitentiary and reform school for criminals
and paupers. Ho would to a great dcgrco
rid the city of hotbeds of crime and Its posti-
Icnco of disease.
Ho would abolish the tax on the man with
small moans , because it was n rcllo of bar
barism , an absurdity , unjust. Ho would relieve
lievo tlio poor of luxation by adding a trilling
tax to the rich. Ho would have Iho city
owning the water works , gas nnd eloctrlo
lights , street railways nnd all public cor
porations , and this would not bo socialism.
Ho would have n severe punishment for the
brute of a leari'ster who overloaded his
poor horses nnd inhumanly boat thorn because -
cause the animals were incapable of carrying
their burd'Jii. Ho would do away with Iho
overhead check rein , and bo would do inuu-
merablo olhor things for the benefit and wel
fare of the pojplo.
Each of thesn "what ho would dos" was
ably argued at length by Mr. Scott ns ho put
them In n forcible and plauslblo sense. Some
of the questions ho admitted were dtulcult to
doat with , but ho showed the ncodod reforms
In a clear and concise manner.
At iho conclusion of his remarks different
members ol Iho club , including Dean ( Jmi
ner and G. W. Liningor nnd olhors , com
mented nnprovlnglv upon Mr. Scott's Idna of
what ho wjnld do if ho wcro the czar of
Omaha , after which the club adjourned until
Its fortnightly meeting.

At tno evening session Hov. S. Mott pro-
sided. The address of welcome to the dele
gates waj delivered by Ur. Frlsbio of Dos
Moines. Colonel Shepard replied to it. Ho
paid n high compliment to Iowa us a Sabbath
observing and temperance state. Speaking
of Iho work of the union , ho sold It wns to
restore Iho observance of the Sabbath. Ho
said it was only ono-sovonth of the time , nnd
tnunk Cod thai the majority of the people
in the country still observe it.
"Truo it has its cnemloj , " ho said. "They
commenced by breaking thoTcnth command
ment , hi' coveting the Unio not theirs , but
God's. The nations that are most backward
are these who disregard the Sabbath ; llioso
who arc most advanced are these who ob
serve it.
"Truo , not nil people in the Sabbath ob
serving countries keep it In its strictness ,
but Just in proportion as the number of a
people observe the Sabbalh , Just in Iho
proportion Ooi prospers that people. Ono
of the objects for which tuo union
will labor Is for tha closing of the World's
fair. While wo are exhibiting our evidences
of growth or prosperity wo can well afford to
exhibit evidence of our morality , which can
bo done in no better way than by showing
to the people of ohcr countries the real
American Sabbath. "
Dr. Herrick Johnson of Chicago spoKe nt
length on the duty of the government to in
sist that this nation take no part in the dese
cration of the American Sabbath. Ho arpuod
the question at length , answering1 the argu
ments of those who favor opening the fair.
Members of the Iowa Columbian commission
were present and were called on for an
expression on Sunday opening. Two of thorn
voted for closing but the others refused to
vote.

and to estimate the expanses of the Iowa
exhibit , made a lonsrthy report. Nine designs
were submitted for the state budding , Iho
cost not to exceed f'o.OOO , but the award Is
not to bo uiado until the legislature passes
an appropriation for the building. Mrs. Clark
of DCS Moines , member of the woman's
board , submitted an oulllno for exhibit nro-
posed by u omen of iho state ; she said Iho
womoii wanted at least SiO.OOJ ot Iho state
appropriation. The live stock mon nslted for
$ . - > uooo.
Olhor Interests pressed their claims with
equal vigor. Secretary Chase stated that the
exhibition fever has caught Iowa and the
demand for a largo appropriation will bo en
forced by public sentiment. The state has
available for extraordinary appropriations
for the next two years'only S109.UOO , this
will not bosufllclent and the fair commis
sioners will probably work for the rcstora-
lion of the K ) < UHU , ( ) clause abolished by the
last legislature.

CIIICAOO , III. , Doc. 10. Today brought only
faint clues to the porpotratori of last night's
sensational mall robbery. Ono conclusion Is
that the ribuors were of the export class. It
Is suspected nlso that there were In the gang
men formerly In the postal service. The
booty is now estimated nt $ J,500. ,
An interesting statement is miulo by Mary
Con way , who was attending a wako In .tho
house on the corner of the alloy where the
robbery wns committed. SI'o snys thnt she
saw the mall van turn into iho alloy. She
adds tlmt she saw no robbers. The Inference
is that the driver , Crcigulon , wont Into the
alloy of his own accord. The poltco accept
this ns evidence- that Croighton was not
altogether Ignorant of the nmbush.
