The McOlurg Cracker company , whose bolts were BO mysteriously and mali ctoualy cut the other night , expects to be able to atart up again by next Wednes day.

On Saturday night the political trip lets , Fiainey ( justice of the peace ) , Patton - ton ( prospective consul to Singapore ) ) and Galvin ( city woighmaater ) , seemed to have a lively tlmo of it at the SI. Joe house. From the statement given by ono of the party it appears that Patton - ton and Galvin alone went to the place a llttlo after 11 o'clock and wanted a cigar , and th t after getting smokes thoj asked for drlnkp , which wore refused , and that Matt Kuhl , the proprietor , rushed at them from behind the bai with a billiard cue and put ( hem oul without cause or reason. The other aide of the story is thai Fralney was there too , and that the hoto was being scrubbed out , when they de manded ndmitslon. The door being un locked , they came in and bought some cigars , after which they wanted drinks which were refused , aa it was 1 o'clock and the saloons are ordered to close at 11 o'clock. They propoaed to help them selves , nnd this started a racket , whtcl ended in their being put out of doors. Pntton therefore swore out n warran before Fralnoy nndKuhlwaanrtcstod am bail fixed at $1,000 , In default of wblcl ho was put in jail. Fralnoy reduced thi bail to $300 and ho gave this amount The case is to como up to-day , and semi interesting developments are promised If Fralney was ono of the party , the af lair aoeina a very unseemly ono and it any event , war is promised all along thi lino. John Llndt Is Kuhl's attorney ane ho is threatening to prosecute the trip lots for riot , or road the riot act to then before ho gets through with it. Sewer pipe of all sizes for sale a wholesale or retail at Lewi ) & Gilbert's No. 521 Main street. The Dee in Oonuull BltilTt ) . At a meeting of thn retail merchants hold the other evening , ono of the Conn cil Bluffs Herald men , the ono who i "trying" to learn the business , called thi attention of the committee to the fao that the advertisement of the prcsldon of the meeting appeared In TUB BUG , i espy of which ho held in his hand. Hi asked that TIIE BEE bo "boycotted , " bu was very politely sot down on by ono o of the committee , also a BEE advertiser who informed the Herald's "freshman that advertising in TUB BEE Tpaid thi merchants of this city , and tlia they had more and better return from an ad. in THE BEE than in all thi other papers combined. For the benefi of the "fresh gentleman" of the Herali it might be well to mention the fact th Council BlufrV merchants who advertlr in TUB BEE do so , not for charity or be cauao it is cheaper than the other papers but simply because the circulation of Tij ] BEE is greater than the whole number c copies printed by all the other Counci Bluff * papers combined and they bavi better returns from an advertisement ii THE BEE right hero in Council Bluff than from advertising in either or all o the other Council Bluffj papers. Tin BEE is not guilty of one practice commot to other papers here ; that Is , of coaxln § Omaha advertisers to ute tbeir coin mm by offering them cheaper advertising rates than they give the advertisers o : Council Bluffs. If they have any special favors to show or cuts of prices to give , they should give them to the merchant ! here , instead cf giving them to the mer chants of competing points. TDK BEI business in Council Bluffs Is leased and controlled by Council Bluffs men and capital. , Seventeen residents of Council Bluffj are given employment , and the jot material , presses , otc , are owned by Council Bluffs citizens. The space and papers are bought just as any mer chant buys his goods , and are sold agalr at enough profit to meet the running ex' penaes , which have to ba met by Uouncl ! Bluffa men. The BEE office In Counci Bluffa is therefore as strictly a local in- stltntlon as any state or faction hero and is so recognized and conducted. Ono Free Train tvcry fTeek. Now that the merchants are plannlnf to make more of a boom for business , 1 would bo a good idea for them to con elder the advisability of arranging , no for ono free train only , bnt for several An arrangement could doubtless bo mad with every railway running into this clt ; so that once a week at least , a apecin train could bo run into the city , fret first one direction and then another , tak ing a different road each week , and thu securing ono gala day every week. Th expense , if divided among th merchants , would bo small , am these spec'al ' trains would bring In ; largo number of people , and a goodl amount of trade. It Is suggested tha each merchant subscribing should b given tlcketa in proportion to his sub acriptlon , and these he could place in th hands of thosa with whom ho though they would do the most good. The 01 ganlzation now being effected , would d well to Investigate a little along the lin of these suggestions , and the result migh bo that at a little expense one regula "hurrah" day might be secured for Conn oil Bluffa every week.
