The Facta Concornliiff Llko Attomptt end Llko Progroaa In tlio Pnatnnd the Needs of ProHpootB. Tliu receipt of tlio following tclu- i ram from Congressman Hopburn gladdens mid revives the hopes of thoau who Imve no long been striving to got a government building in Coun cil Mluffs ; WAHHINOTO.V , I ) . C. , February 7 , 1882 Pun. . AKMOUU : The Council Hlulla court liousu nnd pontoflico bill has boon favorably repotted by tlio cummitteu on public building. W. P. llKI'IIUIlN. Thnt the bill has reaclad ; suoh n stage is cheerful tiding , indeed , to the citi/.uns hero , all of whom are no interested in tbu success of tlio meas ure , nnd Congressman Hepburn is justly entitled to prnisu for what ho IIIIH accomplished , nnd hearty support in the furtherance of the measure to u successful pissiigo. The Nonpareil in seeking to give hint credit , how ever , shows its Bchiiol-buyish spite against thosu who Imvo in the past won equal credit , nnd as nsunl , wan tonly butehotH thu truth to satisfy this upito. While TIIK lii'.p. would add to , rather than tnko from , any praino given to Congressman Hopburn in this nmttcr , it deems the public ns entitled to the real facts , and in view of tlicno facts it becomes apparent how far the Nonpareil will ire to sat- ibfy ilu personal npleen , and how ready it IH to deccivo its readers. At least twice before a mmil.ir bill hits leached ju t the position in which the present one ia , n fact well known to Thu Nonpareil , notwithstanding its assertion that previous attomptu "liavo failed in every particular. " In the Forty-fifth congress , Col. Sapp , then the representative , introduced a bill appropriating 8100,000 for a gov ernment building hero. This bill was unanim.ously reported favorably upon by the committee on public buildings , UIUH reaching the exact po sition of the present bill. It was further placed on the calendar of the committee of the whole. Judge Humphreys , of Wiscoimin , and others joined in the attempt to ot n ( suspen sion of the rules for a consideration of this bill and others , but the at tempt failed to secure the two-thirds vote necessary , and had to await its turn in the regular order. The bill was not reached before adjournment , and wont the way of all auuh bills. In the Forty-sixth congress a like bill was iigain introduced by Congrens- man Sap ] ) , who wan so vigilant that it wan the first bill introduced fur n government building , and it wna hoped by thus being eaily it might be crowded in succesatul passage' . The committee to whom it wna referred desired curtain facts , on which it wished u report from tlio nuyor ol this city , and stated that if thu fuctt reached tliero the bill would bo re ported on favorably at once. Mr. Sapp called on Col. Cochran , the muyor , for this report and was prom ised it , but not receiving thu report , came homo from Washington in per- mm to get it. Ho got J. W. Bond , osq. , to hunt up the facts , and N. W. Pusoy , esq. , made out thu report , and it win signed by Judge Jones , nftoi ho became mayor. The report wae sent to Washington , and in loss thai u week after receiving it the committee too reported unanimously in favor o appropriating $100,000 for the orcc tion of a government building hero Col. Sapp moved u suspension of tin rules to tuko up that bill out of its or der on the calendar , but failed to ao cure the two-thirds vote necessary Thu bill had to bide ita time , and no being reached in regular order on tin calendar , was killed by adjournment Thua , it will bo soon , that twice bu fore a like bill has reached this chuur ful point of a favorable report iron thu committee , jubt ns Congressman Hi'pburno's 1ms now. The proson outlook is , however , moro favorable On both of the pluvious oce.mion the democrats had control of congros and had u majority of the committee milking it moro uphill work for ruput : lii-im members to gut their will an wish. Now the latter are in th ascendancy. A fuithtr fact is worthy of conoid oration , At the times of the provuni attempts to passuch a bill ( hero wn no United Htatoa court held hero except copt thu district court. During th Forty-sixth congress Conyrossnw Sapp introduced a bill providing fu holding thu Umtud Stntis circui court at times and places where th diatiict courts \voio held , tliero bem Uubuipjo , Kookuk and Council Ululfi This bocamu a law , und now jivu $ a additional claim for having n goven ment building hero , and is u point i favor of such a building which did in exist beforo. Previous attempts had bc 'ii mad to Btiouro the passage of such n bi providing for United States circu eourtH , but had failed. During tl Foity-foiirth congress Judge Mi Orary introduced ono , but f.iiled ( got it through , .ludgo Sampan , i the Sixth district , of Iowa , made similar attempt , which failed in tl Forty-fifth congress , und in the Fort' ixth coiigries ihu bill intioduced i Col. Sapp passed. All about that j i is not only an important law , but it 11 u itrong point now in favor of tl present appropriation bill. In view of which has been done , docs seem deapioiblu fin- The Noi pareil , know ing the tucds , to go out i way , while jitbtly praUiu. ' thu imu out rvproioiitutivc , to ulyly shp h . _ Thorti in ono strong n'ason why tl citizens of Council IMutU Bhould n crease their activity and mlly eo f , as practicable to thu tupport of Coi giessmau llepburn'ii bill. A bill hi i bter introduced by Governor Curpci ter , providing for a division of tl state into two judicial district * . Th bill him been ulwo rejiorted fuviuab upon by the judiciary committee. provides for United States district ai circuit courts for the southern district to bo hold at Davenport , Kookuk , Des Moinoft and Council Bluffs , and for the northern district at Sioux City , Fort Dodi e , and Dubuqiio. It will be seen by this that if this bill posses congrua" , courts will thereafter be held at three new places , Davunport , Sioux City and Fort Dotlgu , and there will bu live places for holding court where there will havu to bu government buildings provided , inskad of two Council Bluffs and Kcokuk as now. It behooves the citizens of Council UlnUs , therefore , to give to Congress man Hepburn all thu aid thuy can to ! { ut hia bill through before ) thu Car- linn tor bill becomea a lav. ' , for if the latter passes first it is doubtful , in fact almost impossible , that the needed appropriation could bo secured , for theru would be five cities with a like clamor , and the number of govurn- mcnr , buildings asked for would out number thosu of any stntu in the union. It in to bo hoped , therefore , that Congressman Hepburn will bo cheered on anil help given him , if needed , to secutu the passage of his bill. A HISTORIC BUILDING It IB the Scene of a Happy Surprise Party , Huvlvlnsr Recolloctloru ? of tho.Post. A number of thu Irionds of the family of John Tcinpluton gave them a pleasant surprise on Tuoaday even ing by gathering en mussc and taking posacssion of his home in the Phuiiiix block on Upper Broadway. Cards , music and dancing , wore among thu happy features of thu evening , and the enjoyment kept up till about iiidnight when a bountiful anppor as surrud , after which duncjng was osuniod until all wore co ntutt to ru- ru. ru.Thu building whuro the pirlyjvlis eld is full of histoiip interest. In 85 ( > tlu ) rooms weru used us thu Jnited States land ollico , wbilu the tore room below , now occupied byO [ ' . Smith , was tlion tued by B.tbbit iV ; lobinson , and the third Htory was a mil , where moro than a quarter of a ontury ago , thu parents and grand- arontsot those who theiu dnnccd lie other evening , were wont to step ) the music of Field's bund , junt thu imu as their descendants on this oc- : , ision moved to thu measures of the lame violin still in Chief Field's ands. Liter thu upper story was trans- ormcd into a theatre , and it was huro hat thu legitimate drama was first roducud in this city. The second ) or became thu council chamber. Ulill later the upper Rtory was : hangcd into a printing ollicu , and it , vas huro that thu daily Bugle wau i rn during the throes of the rubol- 011. Since that time it has become hu puiputty of Jlr. O. T. Smith , , 'bo , by a singular coinciduncu , was no of the original company who puned the theatrical season with thu 'Forest Rose , " during the mumora- winter of ' 50. FURTHER FACTS. Showing Why the 0M8t Bud of the County Should bo Satisfied. _ j Some Now Light Upon the Problem o Division. The proposed division of this count ; nto two judicial districts by estab iahing terms of court at Avoca ha ittlo in facts or reason to give i strength. It ia understood that thii neaauru is but another phase of th old question of dividing the cuunty und terming a now county out of tin eastern portion , and in this view tin entering wedge for such a split i norothan of passing importance. I has already been shown that only one tenth of all the court business come from the eastern portion of the count ; and that these cases aru small one and not generally litigated ; It ha also been shown that thu carting u records backward and forward wouli bu impracticable und annoying. It i also evident that thu oxtr.i expons would bu great , and , further , thu there is no timu for holding such court as is proposed. In fact , all th facts tlma tar gathered point to bu ono conclusion , that the move is im piacticable and ill-advised It , ia doubi.k'Bb inconvenient fu t-uino to lomu from thu eiistein pot lion of thu county to this city , but i would lu equally inconvenient fo tin'no ' from hero who \\oulil b called upon to attend court in Avoc.i and those in the eastern portion coul not avoid making trips huro , even i thu court was established as desired for the bill introduced does not etfct thu question of our county seat , an nil the county records and ollicial would center heru then as now , For thu satisfaction of these in th eastern portion of thu county wh feel that thuy uro incunveniuncuu facts havu boon gathered tihowiii aomo of the advantages which thu havu derived from being in the sum county with thu eastern portion an with this city. In thu matter t bridgu building , an important factc in thu improvement of this county there was expended in 1881 by tin county $15,2-10 , and of this amuui two-thirds 510,0'J7 ? was expunde in thu eastern portion , Thu largci pint of this money , too , came fioi thu weatutn part of tlio county. Tli tut.il valuation ot property in th comity in 1881 was $ i > l48 Ji02 ( , an that of pri perty in thu eastern poi tion only iil08t,7C5 ! , hardly any 11101 than thu valuation of Council Blut alone , which was $2,1120,200 for tl samu yo.ir. In utlier wonU this cil alone paid as much to thu biidgo fun as thu tvholu of thuuaatern portion < thu county , and thu eastern portu ; received two-third of thu mom tluu rained , Thu bridge tax for 1880 , for tl coulity , amounted to $8,5 ! ) I. Of this ninonnt th east end of the county paid 82,027. very nearly iw much as thn entire bastcrn portion. The eamu r.ttio of fi iu'o.i is sliown by the bridge tax for 1881. The enst end ol ( lir enmity was tnx d § 0,17.'J and Council iUullsulonu So,858 The total bridg' tax of the county w.in 818,00 , " ) , an thar while pa > ing less than one-third n ( the bridge tax , thu east end IIIIH received tno-thirJs of the fund. Such an-but samplrs of iho bene fits derived by thu east , end by its present rcUuonahip. In viuw of those and other fiijuroH of a lilio niitiitc , it Beoins that the bpiiefitfK IFsot what in- coiiveniencu may ariau to a few law- > urs and witiicaica , by not having it court established right under their eaves , BENEATH THE BED. There Is Wlioro a Would-Bo Thlof HldoH Illmaelf nnd la Captured. At thu Creston house on TiloHdny evening a singular attempt was made to rob thu landlord , Max Molin , About 8 o'clock in thu ovuning ho ac companied his wife und child to their room , and after scoint' them snugly in bed , turned thu gas down a little , and on going out locked the door and took the key with him. Mrs. Mohn heard u mysterious IIOIHU under thu bed , nnd thought it must be a dog who had got into thu room , but .m thu runtime kepi up , Mid thu catisu of her aim in crawled out from nndur thu bed along the floor , slio became satisfied that it was a man.

The fellow on being captured was , t once rccogni/.cd as a young mai nurd ilaiuei T. Stockdale , who has eon bean ing at thu" house for about wo months.
