conceded that tba Kinth district Is strongly
republican and Congressman Walter I.
Smith will be re-elected by an overwhelm
ing majority, aa two years mo, thera are
several willing to make the race against
him. This willingness does not come from
any hope of being elected, but from the
prestige and chances of preferment that
such candidate would enjoy In the event
of the possible election of the democratic
candidate for president. -' v

cratic state central committee, who is

Is a banker and la said to be In accord
with Judge Parker on the money question.
A number bf tha leading democrats of
Council , Bluffs are anxious ta give the

blase originated from a kerosene lamp left

Its arrival on the scene had tba fire ex

In view of the fact that the new rules
formulated for their government will Im
pose additional duties upon them, the Jani
tors of tha public school buildings will
present to the Board of Education at Its
next meeting a petition asking for a uni
form scale of wages and an Increase of
10 per cent. The petition has been signed
by all the male Janitors. The Janitor at
the Eighth avenue school, who Is a wo
man, and two teachers, who also act as
Janitors of the small buildings where they
teach, have not algned the petition.
The extra work which will be ' Imposed
upon the Janitors under the new regula
tions, they say, should entitle them to In
creased pay. Some of them In charge of
the larger buildings' Insist they will have
to hire an assistant, as they now have
an the work they can attend to without
having additional burdens placed upon
them. 1
The salaries of the Janitors range frcra
)35 a month at the Eighth avenue school
to 3126 at the High school. In asking for
a uniform scale the Janitors suggest $20
a month with 35 additional for every room
In use. This scale is partly In force. An
other thing that the Janitors ask Is tho
privilege of meeting once amonth at one
of the school houses to discuss methods
of taking care of the buildings and other
matters of interest to them.

review of the two regiments In camp
here today by Governor Cummins and

the new army tactics, which have not yet
been put In force In the regular army,
have been used and th companies have
been drilled under them because of the
fact that General Lincoln was one of those
who wa called upon to prepare the tac
tics. In the other regiment, the Fifty
third, these rules are unknown. At first
It was feared there would be complications
In the matter, but they were settled by
all following the old regulations so far a
possible at the review.
