TALK COMMISSION GOVERNMENT
Plaa May Be Submitted to Voters at
an Early Date.
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.

Paul Blackburn, a colored newsboy, had a
close call yesterday. Blackburn some years
ago 'had his limb crushed at the hip and It
had to be' amputated. Recently the lad se
cured an artificial limb, but had not be
come quite accustomed 1 to the use of it.
When he attempted to board the Incoming
Sloox.Clty train at the Broadway depot
yesterday the artificial limb caused him to
miss his footing and he was thrown ender
the steps of the car, Jn some, manner ho t
succeeded In catching hold of the truck and
was dragged nearly 100 feet, bumping over
.the ties-- His cries attracted a big crowd
and when he was picked up ha was almost
unconscious from fright and the shaking
up he had received. He was conveyed to his
home at Twelfth street and Avenue B,
nearby, where he was attended by Dr. H.
B. Jennings, the company's surgeon, "who
pronounced him to be only suffering from

BELIEVES LIFE SAVED

"I hare been treated by doctor for
twenty-five years for a bad case of

tun iauea to cure it.
My doctor had ad
vised me to have ray
leg cut off. but I
said I would try tha

first. He said, "Try
them if you like, but
I do not think they
will do any good. '
At this tim. mv
leg was peeled from the knee, my foot
as like a pieoe of raw flesh, and I had
to walk on crutches. I bought a cake
of Cuticura Soap, a box of Cuticura
Ointment, and a bottle of Cuticura
Pills. After the first two treatments
too swelling went down, and in two
months my leg was cured and ths new
kin came on. The doctor could not
believe his own eyes when he saw that
Cuticura had cured me and eaid that
be would use it for his own patients.
I used two cakes of Cuticura Boap,
t three bozea of Ointment, and five bot

cured over seven years, and but for

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
