Clements of film wood, was received here yesterday. He died at Rock Springs, Mo., where he had gone for treatment. His remains will be brought, home for burial. "Bert" Clements, as he was popular ly known, was born and reared to man hood in Cass county. When a mere boy he commenced to learn the printer's trade and newspaper business. And for about fifteen yiars he was 'editor and owner of the Elnnvood Leader-Echo. As a newspaper man he always made the columns of his paper speak for de cency and the best interests of his fel low man. His paper made its impress upon the community where he worked, and always on the side of right and de cency and good government. He was a good man and a capable writer. We numbered him among our best personal friends. He was about thirty-five years of age, and a brother of County Coroner Clements. His brother and family have the sym pathy of a ho: t of friends who with them mourn the loss of so good a man and brother. C, the score remained a tie when Hav. lock 1 left the fidd after disputing a gn u.ul rule in the first half of j the ninch, two . men being out at the tiirn. Decoration Day Exercises Mri. G. W.

G. 12, Wescott's Sons " Where Quality Counts." City Council. Much Rhetoric and Little P.usi n03 Characterized Session. The regular meeting of the city coun- j cil w as held Monday evening. A con- i siderub'.c amount of rhetorical clap-! trap was indulged in by two or three of j the saloons -Steimker, especially, be ing long on oratory with but little to say-rbut outt-ide of ordering a few minor repair jobs in the street depart ment, but little business was done. Dwyer introduced an ordinance pro hibiting the distribution about the city of free samples of patent medicine and the advertising literature aceompan ing same. Steimker here worked off a littlu of his oratory in offering a mo tion that the matter be referred back to the judiciary committee. Dwyer ex plained that the measure had just come from the judiciary committee, and of fered an amendment that the ordi nance be placed on its first reading. r... m.a i .... - r nr t t, e uui uic cioueiiec 01 uie v . j, i. 01 the Third ward was most potent and Dwjer must continue to take his medi cine In patent samples for another two weeks at least. Superior oratory downed Dwyer agaii when he attempted to secure the adoption of a resolution lowering the grauV at the intersection of Vine ami Seventh streets, the object being to se cure better drainage. The street com mittee was granted further time to consider the matter, nor would the council instruct it complete its "in vestigations" in the next two weeks in order to report at the next meeting. The judiciary committee had another ordinance relative to the dumping of of rubbish in the creeks on Chicago and Washington avenues. On a motion by Newman this was referred back to the judiciary committee to look the matter up, and see what they're going to do about It." -'After 'making two ' or three moJonB for some of the more timid members of the councile directing the street com mittee to make some needed repairs in various parts of the city, the mayor facetiously called attention to the fact tnat as the "citizens" had voted for lights and we had plenty of money to secure them the council should proceed to proceed ami light up the city by fall at the latest. Rids for the city printing for the coining year were refered to the judi ciary committee.
