VISITOES FEOM NEOLA ,
They Come to Council Blum * to Talk
Over the New Court House
Sclicino. *
Yesterday tliero wore present in the
city n number of Noola's prominent citi-
: ona , sent hither by the action of a meet
ing hold recently in Neola to consider
; ho question of n , new court house and
iail. Among the visitors wore E. P.
Brown , J. J. Shea , P. S. C. Johnson
and E. Hoichart. A. W. Coffman , of
Avoca , was also hero. The committee
appointed the previous evening by the
board of trade of this city mot the gon-
bleinun at the Pacific house and an informal -
formal talk was had about the matter.
The visitors wore shown the con
dition of the present court
house , the insecurity of the
records , and impressed witn the idea of
what a calamity it would bo , and what
perplexities would arise should there bo
a fire at the court houso. The other
reason sfor Pottawattamio county building
a now court house and jail wore also
shown up , and the visitors seemed not at
all backward iu acknowledging the need
of now buildings. The chief objections
urged by them , against the proposition
of the county board , were that the time
was rather snort for a full consideration
of the matter between now and February
20 , and the amount to be appropriated
was deemed by them rather lar o.
Tnoso objections were mot with
good arguments in favor of the
proposition , and aovoral of the visitors
expressed themselves as personally deter
mined to vdto and work for the proposi
tion , after having performed their ollicial
duty of presenting the views of those
who had sent thorn hither. There scorns
to bo more and more of a sentiment
favoring the carrying of the proposition ,
if the reports from various parts of the
county are to bo believed , and it is ex
pected that some of the local issues and
petty jealousies which appeared on the
first springing of this question will bo
swept away by the general desire to have
a court house and jail which will bo
worthy of the county , and will give the
needed accommodation and security.
