Ho Vacntctl ,
Yesterday the city tnnrahnl wan aorving
upon the county ofllcish notice to vacate
the court hmiao in nccordanco with the
following ordinance passed by the citj
council :
llo it rciolvod by the Hoard of lloaltli
of the city of Council BlulTa , That thr
auditor of Raid county and his deputy or
deputies , the sheriff and Ills deputy 01
deputies , the clerk and his deputy 01
deputies , and the treasurer and his dnp-
uty , the jailor and his deputy or deputies
bo and they are hereby ordered , directed
and required to vacate and abandon the
county court house in said city , and with-
iu tbroo days from and after the service
of this resolution by the city marshal and
that said sheriff and said jailor bo and
they oto required to vacate and remove
the prisoners from the jail and said court
house within the time above mentioned ,
because said court house and ofllcos and
any room therein including Hald jail , is
absolutely dangerous , unsafe and hazardous
deus , and the lives of all persona in said
building are jeopardized by remaining
therein and bocauao the same is a public
nuisance , and the city marshal bo and ho
la hereby ordered and directed to oorvo
this action of said board of health upon
said county officers at once and report his
dolng'thoroon to the board of health.
The fact has become apparent that the
court house Is no longer safe , and the
action of the council clears the board of
health of all responsibility in case of any
calamity. The serving of the notice
caused a consultation , which resulted in
i call for a mooting of the board of
health , county officials and county board ,
bo bo held last ovoning. The county
board moata next Monday and some
thought it would bo advisable to defer
further action nntll that timo. The
fooling in favor of a now court house is
growing in the east end of the county ,
whore thcro has booh BO much opposition
to such a move. The stern facto pre
sent themselves that the present building
la unsafe , and that the ex
pense cf keeping the prisoners
elsewhere , and leasing suitable rooms
for the county offices and courts will in-
tail a great expense. Aside from the
necessity , it is equally apparent that
thia county , Increasing as it is in
wealth and population , free from debt ,
and one of the loading counties in .tho
state , shall in justice to itself have a
commodious and substantial court house
and jail , one that will not only moot the
present requirements , but will bo ample
for years to come. This county cannot
afford to put up n cheap , stingy sort of a
building. There should bo some county
pride shownas well as mooting the actual
necessities. It being evident that tha
county must build , it should build in a
manner worthy of such n county , and In
keeping with the needs.

THE OITY SCALES ,
GOH ! the Coim
ell to liolj ) Him ,
The equabblo over thn matter of city
scales has boon 'long kept up , and has
boon aadlyjmirod. The city woighmastor ,
with his oflico at the city building , haa
not had enough business to warrant him
in staying in his oflico nt all , or nt least
it would seem BO from the fact that ho is
seldom thoro. The Main street aoalos ,
owned and run by private parties , who
paid the city $50 n year license , have
boon having the run of business , and the
hay murkot has naturally centered on
Main street. Protests huvo boon made
that this was a nuisance. Orders having
boon iesuod against teams standing there ,
a hay and wood market place has boon
designated next to the city building ,
where the ollicliil scales are. The mar
shals have tried to carry out
the various orders. A temporary
injunction has boon gained
restraining the city from interfering with
the Main otreut scales until n hearing can
bo had in court. The city welghmuster
has boon threatening to sue the city for
§ 2,000 damauos bocauao the council li
censed acalea to take away hia foes , he
being elected by the people , and this
licensing of other scales virtually abolish
ing the ollico. Now the council haa
coinu to his help and repealed the ordin
ance licensing other scales , and thus ho
is loft in solo control of the weighing of
the city. Whether thin will bo fought
in the courts ii n question not yet settled.
A largo number of property owners on
Main Htroot have petitioned the council
to lot the scales remain on Alain street.
It looks now as If by the time the equab-
ble is ended the woighmastor'a term ol
office will bo expired.

Fpr many years attracted the attention ol
thousands of viaitoro to London. Al
though these wax-works wore famous al
over the world , they wore not pleasant to
look at. The faces of the persons repre
sented had an unhealthy and bilious look ,
just like these hosts of people wo BOO
along the streets every day. Why do
people look this way ? Tnoso who take
Brown's 1 ron Bitters have no such ap

corrects the action of the heart and pro
duces general health , and restores the
