TUXS OF J3JFORTAITCE OF WOSK
Representative Hertlealtnrlsts Are
rreseat and Speak la Behalf
f the Antrl'H'i af
Grewere.
Before an audleno that comfortably
filled tha main portions of tha exposition
building Governor Carroll yesterday sf tar
noon opened tha third annual exposition of
the National Horticultural eongrea and
tha firet exposition of the Missouri Valley
Cora drawers' association la Council Bluffs.
Governor Carroll spoke for half an hour,
expressing his wonder and dellfht at the
beautiful exposition, which, ha declared,
was beyond the power of words to de
scribe. He aald ha had attended many
kinds of expositions, but this was the most
beautiful and, ha believed, the must Im
portant, that had ever been held In the
Missouri river valley. Ha welcomed the
exhibitors and visitors from the thirty-two
states to Iowa and told them that It was
his conviction that they were conferring
a greater benefit upon all sections of tha
United States than had been conferred by
the exhibitors at any ether exposition held
In recent years.
Congressman Walter I. Smith weloomed
the visitors to Council Bluffs in a brief
and witty speeoh, declaring that tha bril
liant beginning of the exposition was but
the prelude to tha grand eplo that was
iv iuiivw,
Silas Wilson. In behalf of the horticul
turists of tha Paclflo and lnUrmounteln
talcs, responded to tha welcome. He ex
pressed the conviction that the work of
the congress and Its expositions were of
paramount Importance to tha whole coun
try, and that tha western exhibitors, after
three years of trial, were oonvlnoed that
i ho large amount of money expended In
bringing their fruits and horticultural prod
ucts such great distances was tha best
Investment they could make. He said
Idaho, and all of tha northwest states,
would continue to come to Council Bluffs
with Increasingly larger exhibits and Join
tha horticultural!- of tha rest of tha
world In making l i annual expositions of
the congress events of mora than national
Inter t.
Dean Curtis of tha Iowa Agricultural
collage responded for tha middle west In
a half hour's talk that was full of Interest
and Instruction.
Prof, W. N. Hutt of North Carolina and
one of the most noted horticultural experts
In the eastern fruit sections responded for
the eastern sections of the United States.
Ills talk was also full of Interest.
At the olose of tha speeches the Initial
concert of the Woman's American band
was enjoyed by tha crowd for an hour.
The band made a most favorable Impres
sion and wilt be a great drawing attraction
throughout tha tan days the exposition Is
to run.
There was a large attendance last night,
but tha big exposition will not get under
full headway until thla afternoon, when
several thousand Omaha people will coma
here to participate In Omaha day.

Correoted returns from the Ninth dis
trict received ysnterday Increase the ma
jority of Congressman Smith to within a
few votes of 1.700. This conforms very
nearly to Judge Smith's own estimate late
Tuesday night, when his private advices
from each county In the district Indicated
that his majority would be close to X.000,
and while the political statisticians were
figuring sroimd below the 1,000 mark his
confidence did not waver and he refused
to admit the probability of a majority over
Cleveland of as low as 1,600. A remarkable
feature of the vote Is the enormous num
ber of democrats who voted for Judge
Gmlth, not alone In Council Bluffs, but all
over the district Judge Smith estlmatoe
that at least t.000 of his votes were cast
by democrats. In Council Bluffs many
democratic votee were found, with but a
very small proportion or the party candl
date voted for and only one mark In the
republican column and that opposite the
name of Judge Gmlth. One vote In the
First preclnot of the First ward had but
two marks on It, one rross opposite Por
ter's nam and tha other for Smith.
Ilia Re (era Coaarreaa.
Much speculation is being Indulged con
cerning the position Congressman Bmith
will occupy In oongress when the demo
cratic majority la running things, directed
by the old Missouri war-horse. Champ
Clark, as speaker. The belief here Is that
Judge Bmlth will be the logical leader of
the republican minority and that he will
continue to be one of the most Influential
members of congress and by the full and
Impartial discharge of hie duties continue
his progerss toward tha speaker's chair,
strengthened rather than weakened by an
Interruption that will merely causa a da
lay of two years.
Several changes were made in tho county
returns u previously reported and the full
vote will not be known until tho official
canvass, as some of tha election officers
neglected completely to fill out tha cer
tificate on tha backs of the pollbook en
velopes. No Jfew Coaaty Jail.
Tha returns show that the county Jail
proposition was defeated by a small ma
jority. The task of marking the ballots
appeared to be a very great one to the
average voter this year and many of them
grew weary before they got to the end
and quit marking, neglecting to mark the
yellow slip carrying the Jail and the con
stltutlonal amendment propositions and en
closed them as blanks. In the Firet pre
cinct of the First ward forty of the slips
wsra voted blank and there were nearly as
many In tha other wards. The proposition
was hotly fought In the east end. but If
tht Council Bluffs voters had marked their
tickets it would have carried.
All of the republican Judges, Green,
Thomcll and Wheeler, were re-elected by
good majorities.
Following are the footings showing the
total vcrte on tha stats and county ticket:

IMPROVEMENT CLUB MEETS
IIoes tm Be Able ta Appear Before
Cosacll at rrsoacktae Hear
tmg Today.
W. K. Orchard, the permenent president
ot the newly formed Cltliens' Improvement
club of Council Bluffs, presided at th
meeting of the club last evening. Tne
question of the character of tha action to
be taken In relation to tha street railway
extension resolution pending before the
city council and which will be taken up
at the council meeting ot the whole at t
o'clock this morning, was the chlst toplo
of consideration by tha club.
City Attorney Ktmball and former Alder
man Jensen spoke at length upon the mat
ter, and both deolared their belief that the
company would not accept any modifica
tions to tha resolution that would tend
In any degree to limit its charter rights
urder the Lake Manawa franchise. J. R.
McPherson said ha had talked with Em
met Tlnley, the street railway company's
local attorney, and had baen told by blm
that the company would refuse to accept
the resolutions with any restrictions what
ever. It was the sentiment of the club
that tha resolution pending before the
council should be modified In some manner
to permit the company to make tha exten
sions named, but limiting Its rights to those
stieets exclusively, thus protecting the
city's righti!. Mr. Kimball said the com
pany was offering these small extension
for the purpose of getting concessions that
would strengthen its charter, and it would
undoubtedly gain a great deal by the pas
sage of the resolution.
The only action taken by- the club was
to Instruct Its executive committee to as
certain early this morning If the commit
tee would be permitted to meet with the
council and if so to notify at many mem
bers of the general committee as possible
to attend the council meeting. The exe
cutive committee was also instructed by
resolution to use its best Judgment as to
what should be done, governed In It action
by circumstances connected with tha coun
cil's consideration of tha pending meas
ure.
