There appears to be a growing senti ment in favor of Council Bluffs adopting the commission plan of municipal govern- , ment ,ucn at rjPS Moines voted In favor of 'and which Is fashioned after the system now in vogue In Galveston, Tex. It had been stated that steps likely will be taken In the near future for submitting this prop position to the voters of Council Bluffs. Arrangements are now being perfected, It Is said, for the circulation of petitions for the calling of a special election - at which-the question of the adoption of the commission form of municipal government will be submitted to the voters. The law provides that such a special election shall be called by the mayor upon petition signed by electors to the number of 26 per cent of the votes cast for mayor at the last pre ceding city election. The mayor Is required to call the election for some date within two months of the filing of the petition, if same is found to contain the requisite num ber of names of bonaflde electors. The advocates of the commission form of municipal government figure that the petitions can be circulated and the requisite number of names secured within a few weeks, the election called and If the propo sition carried, the change' made In plenty of time for the city election next March to be held under the hjw plan. . Under the commission plan the govern ment of the city would be conducted by the mayor and four councllmen. The appoint ment of practically .all the city officials would rest with the mayor, while the four event or the proposition oewg rejeciea u could not be again submitted until after the expiration of two years. While the commission plan. It Is thought, would be favored by the people generally. It undoubtedly would be opposed by pres sent and prospective municipal officehold ers. As the city council at present Is com posed eBch ward has Its particular repre sentative in that body In addition to coun cllmen at large. The commission plan would eliminate the ward councllmen.

OTHERS MAY BE BROUGHT IN Coaaell Meetlnsr Falls for Lack of a Qnornm and Much Important Bosluess la Carried Over. The preliminary trial of Minard Aideu for larceny from the person of Ed Gates, committed July 9, 1907, will be heard this morning In police court. The hour of the trial Is 10 a. m. Much depends on Alden's determination as to how many pcoplo will be drawn Into the case to be prosecuted for the robbery. He has knowledge. It Is al leged,, which may convict several others than himself. Without his testimony the police think It improbable, that enough evidence can be secured to warrant the prosecution of any of the others.. The of ficers are confident, however, In Alden's case that they can secure evidence from which there will be no escape. The com plaints were sworn out yesterday by Cap tain P. II.

In addition the losses of Gates lncludo a necktie Btlckpin and other small articles. Gates is In tho state hospital for inebriates In Lincoln and will not be brought up for the preliminary trial. He Is said to be tin proving much in health. The witnesses for the state have all beea closely questioned and their statements have been reduced to writing.

Men of experience know from years of satisfaction that absolutely the finest tobacco in the world is PIPER HEIDSIECK CHAMPAGNE FLAVOR PLUG TOBACCO There are other high-grade tobaccos, but there 13 only one Piper Heidsieck. Only the pick of the choicest tobacco is considered good enough for Piper Heidsieck. That's why no other tobacco is good enough for those who know the delightful, distinctive champagne flavor of Piper Heidsieck. Costs a little more but chewing is such an inexpensive habit, anyway, that you might as well have the best.
