Some of the justices of the pence * of this
I city arc considerably exercised Jn mind
1 f j qvor thp passage of the Waterman law by
M _ _ * "lho legislature , fixing the maximum com-
I IP ponsatlon of justices at $1,203 nnd of con-
L stables at $1,000 per annum. They claim
> i > ihnt they make inoro than that sum each
7 | year , and It Is not right for the county to
-receive part of their fees so long us they
have to pay their office rent nnd the other
expenses connected with the olllccH. W. II.
Ware , who has seen a copy of the hill nnd
examined It carefully , states that the law
eloe not mean that justices must return
all they malto over $1,200 per annum , but
merely nil In excess of that amount In htato
cases , where the costs are paid by the
county. AH there la probably not a JiiHtlco
In the city who realizes $1,200 n year from
Ills criminal business , 11 Is evident that the
justices who nro so worried over the passage -
sago of the law are losing sloop in vain.
The only thing that the law will do Is to
lirovent justices from bleeding the county
by starting buncombe suits , as was the cus
tom amoiiR fcomo of thorn a fu\v years ago.

The committee appointed at the la-it meet
ing of the city council to consider the nd-
vlsahlllty of renewing the contract with the
Council Illuffn Has and Hlcctrlc Mght com
pany for another flve years held u meeting
last evening nt the offloo of Alderman Nich
olson for the purpose of hearing arguments
of Interested citizens In opposition to the
plan. Mayor Cleaver and Aldermen Nichol
son , Spctman nnd Drewlck represented
council and .lames McOabo mid Colonel W.
! ' , linker wcro there from the opposition.
Mr. McCnbc mnile the principal argument
ngalnM. the Mcnttlon. Ho called attention
to thei fact tlmt of tlio $51,000 raised by the
city each year In taxes $13,000 waa paid out
to two corporations , the water company re
ceiving $30.000 and the gas company $13,000.
He quoted extracts from n prominent per-
lodlc.U to the effect tlmt within ten years
gns would I ) ' , ' manufactured at one-half Its
present cost , and snhl It would be mudness
for the city to tie Itself up for another five
years In view of such prospects.
lie nlso ejuoted flguroH to show thnt the
present charges for ch'ctrlc lights wcro ex
orbitant , ns Hhovvn by romparleon with
chargcH made In Chicago , Illoomlngtoit , III. ,
and other cities. Inasmuch as the company
now had no charter and consequently
no righto on the- streets of Council BUilTs ,
he thought It wns the best chance thu city
could e-ver expect to secure possession of the
lighting plant , nnd presented the plan , ns It
appeared In the columns of The Ileo several
days ago , hy which a company should bo or
ganized to put In H new plant and sell It
out to the city as soon ns the city should bo
In Hhapo lo purchase It , for the amount put
into the plant with Interest.
After Mr , McCubo hnd finished his talk
the subject \vas discussed at principal
length , the aldermen and mayor asking
questions which were fully answered by him.
Mayor Cleaver agreed with McC'nbe and
liaker that the city wns paying double What
It ought to for lights. Alderman Nichol
son asked McCabe what steps he thought
should bo taken with reference to the ex
tension of the contract. McCabe said he
would not do anything. "Let It stand as
It h , and If you have to make a contract
don't make one for more than a year. "
"Would the city have the right to stop
the company's manufacturing gas and elec
tric light when the contract expires next
October ? " nskcd the mayor.
"Yes. " replied McCabe , "Icould stop It
tomorrow and the city could not help Itself. "
"Couldn't the company cause us consid
erable ttoiiblo by plopping running Us plant
after the expiration of the contract ? "
queried Nicholson.
"No , " was McCabe's reply ; "the plant was
built for the benefit of the public , and
when the company refuses to operate It
the court will step In and operate it until
It can he closed out and other arrangements
can bo made by the public for carrying on
the work. " In reply to the question
whether the company could not make
trnnlilo bv Imnoslmr any charccs It saw lit.
ho said that It could only charge what the
light was reasonably worth , nnd ho know the
company could not get any more than It
WHS getting now. and probably not BO much.
When the meeting adjourned the members
of the rommllteo seemed to bo rather taken
with the Idea of the city owning Its own
lighting plant , and the probability is that
they will report adversely to the proposi
tion to tie- the city up for another term of
flve years.

The body of an unknown tramp was found
yesterday afternoon lying by the side of the
railway track a short distance south of
Honey Creelt station. It was put on board
the train and brought to this city. Coroner
Jennings viewed the remains and decided an
Inquest was unnecessary. One of the men
employed nt the Northwestern roundhouse
said ho saw the tramp pass him Tuesday
afternoon and when asked where he was
going said ho was bound for Chicago. There
was nothing about his person to tell who he
was , but n piece of copper wire bent In such
a way that It might , bo paslly used.for un
locking doors gave some Idea ns to his pro
fession. A brass check similar to those used
in saloons , "good for 5 cents In trade , " was
hung about his neck by a strong buckskin
cord , evidently ns a charm of some kind.
There wcro no bones broken nnd nothing to
Indicate how he met his death , excepting a
slight bruise on the top of his head. The
remains will be donated to the Council

DCS M01NKS , March 23. ( Special Tele
gram lo The llee , ) The legislature h lit
erally overrun by the lobby , nnd the nolso
and confusion render It almost. Impossible
to traiH.ict business. Representative Ourley
Introduced a resolution In the house toddy
which declared that the annoyance from
parties soliciting votes had , become unboarn-
blo and directing the scrgcnnt-at-arms to
summarily eject any person who trasgresscs
the rule * ) during the session of the house.
This action cleared the lloor for n moment ,
but the resolution being tabled , the workers
returned In greater numbers In the after
noon.
The senate passed a resolution submit
ting prohibition to a vote of the people , but
omitting the self-enforcing features of the
Cornwall amendment adopted by the house.
The prohibitionists claim this Is an act of
bad faith , nnd will Insist upon the senate's
receding from this action. All the republi
cans voted for thu proposition except
13 rower.
Senator Harsh , chairman of the committee
on ways and means , made a final effort
today to secure consideration of the revenue
bill. Senators Kills , Harper and Finn op
posed the bill on the alleged ground that It
would compel the listing of nil farm prop
erty nt Its actual value and he likely to In
crease the farmers' taxes. The motion to
11.x a time to consider the bill was lost , 17
to 19.
The hennte passed the lllggen bill codify
ing mining laws.
The anti-Insurance combine bill passsd the
senate. It makes It unlawful for Insurance
companies to combine to keep up rates , and
provides penalties In fines from $10 to $500.
The Btnto geological survey appropriation
of $ L'0.000 for the coming biennial period
met with vigorous opposition In the house.
An amendment reducing the amount to
$10,000 was adopted. A motion by Morri
son to strike out the enacting clause was
lost. Ex-Speaker Mitchell said It was his
understanding two years ago that $20.000
woutd cover the entire expense of the sur
vey and he found that not only had that
amount been consumed In superficial survey
partially made , but that thousands of dollars
lars extra had been paid in printing nnd
expenses not contemplated by the legislature
which passed the original bill. Ho was
unalterably opposed to these blanket per
mits authorizing Irresponsible parties to put
their hand into the pocket of the taxpayers
at pleasure , and moved nil amendment limit
ing llie loiai expenses 10 uic amount muneu.
Trewln , Itoblnion , Hanck and Allen favored
the bill.
Mr. Carter said It was time this scandal
was fully nlrcd. He found on Investigation
that the chemist at the Agricultural college ,
who was already n salaried officer of the
state , had claimed $ ltJ5 for the single month
of February , nnd that 1'rof. Samuel Calvin
of the State university , who was now re
ceiving $2,200 per year , had actually been
paid about $1,800 , for work during his sum
mer vacation. Taxpayers will not approve
such reckless extravagance by the geological
logical board and felt It was tlrno to call n
halt. The amendment was lost , 31 to 60 ,
and the bill passed , 64 to 15. Those voting
"no" wcro Carter , Chapman , Funk , Har
mon , Horton , Martin , Moore , Morrison ,
Schultz , Sessions , Saw > er , Spauldlng , Stlll-
munkcs , Klemme and Williams of Fremont.
The Iiou&o passed the McCnnn bill , re
quiring the return of the entire number of
electors In each county for Jurors to be se
lected by lot. This measure Is Intended to
do away with the professional Jurors In
large cities. , .
The house finished the regular appropria
tion bills , Including $45,000 for erection of
Ladles' hall at the Agricultural college and
$3,000 for cottages for soldiers' widows at
the Marshalltown Soldiers' home.
