At the last meeting of the council an
important improvement was started upon ,
the city engineer being instructed to
make the necessary survey for the pur
pose of establishing a driveway from the
end of Oakland avenue , through the
corner of the cemetery , along the land of
Mr. Rohrer , onto the ridge , where there
Is a chance for a road a mile In extent ,
as level aa a floor , and presenting a splen
did view of the Missouri valley , and con
necting at ono end with Grand avenue ,
nt the other end with the lake road , thus
giving two ways to circle about and enter
the city. By this means the city wonld
have ono of tbo most beautiful drives to
IB found in the west , and the expense Is
estimated not to exceed § 500. The
owners of adjacent property are willing
to glvo the right of way , and the whole
expense can then easily bo provided for.
As soon as the engineer can prepare tbo
Burvey , further steps will bo taken , and
It is thought that the plan can bo suc
cessfully carried out. In making the
toad , the ascent is said not to exceed
SQVOU feet in a hundred , and the descent
at the other end only four feet in a hun
dred.

I
- , , The election of city ofliors at the conn-
oil meeting Monday night did not salt
| | ' the democratic minority of that body ,
and they are preparing a grand "kick. "
They claim that the election was illegal ,
and they propoeo to contest U , and in * tbis
the little mayor proposes to take a hand
Aa was announced in y OB tor day'a BIE : ,
Mr. Dalrymplo was elected as city olojk
in place of the present Incumbent , Ed-
1 ward Troutman , and Capt. D. F. Etcher
was elected chief of the tire department
In place of 0. Walters.
The chief point ruteod on the chieftain
ship of the iird department in that the
ordinance , passed just before Waltorawas
olcctad , provides tint the ch'of eh ill hold
Ills oQlco for two years , uu'cjs removed
for cause , aa provided in the caao of the
city officers chosen by the council , "or ,
unlcsi the city councilJibnll befora the
expiration of that time , elect a successor
at the aannnl election of city officers. "
It is claimed that under the statutes of
the state , this annual election must beheld
hold on the second Monday after the
election of the nldermon , or , in other
words , the election muet take place on
the night of the first meet ng of the
new council. This time having pissed , it
Is claimed that that the council cannot
now elect now men.
The claim that tbo old city clerk Is
atill to hold ou la based upon the same
statute. The ordluanco under which the
chief of the fire department propoioa to
hang on , was pasted jest before Walton
was elected , and was supposed to have
been framed for ( lie special purposa of
making way for his election , the old or Jl
nance providing that the chief could hold
unll * removed for cause , and as there
was no cauta for removing Ohlof Temple-
ton , the new ordinance was passed BO as
to let Walters in.
The mayor , of course , takes a hand In
the low , ana the part t ikon by him is In
the form of a veto. Tbo council at its
list meeting passed a roiolulion that "Wo
now procoid to tbo election of ft city
clerk , " etc , and a slmlhr resolution was
passed jaat previous to voting on the
question of chief of the fire department ,
and those resolutions tbo mayor yetter-
day vetoed , thus In his judgement
miking the election of both officers illegal ,
Whether this prooeduro will cat any
figure or not , is a question The whole
matter is to be brought before a meeting
of the council next Ttieiday evening , and
the effort Is to be made to bnlldcm the
rqmbl c n members Into backing down ,

The Operalioii of the Iowa Pharmacy
Law as Shawn by an Expert ,

Tyranny anil Kcy-llolo Spies
Grinding the Country
Merchant ,
To the Editor of The liKt.
The Iowa Pharmaceutical atsoclatlon
will convene during this treok at Council
Bluffs.
This is a voluntary association of the
diuggtsta of the itnto of Iowa , nod has
for its object "tho elevation and exten
sion of pharmaceutical knowledge , " and
as thcso meetings have been hold since
the year 1880 , the interest in them ii
ralhor Increasing than othorvriso.
Thcro is no doubt a very wide dissatis
faction among the whole fraternity on ac
count of the diversity of action , and the
fearfully oppressive character of the pro
hibitory law , and also the intolerant par
tisan way In which the pharmacy law is
enforced in tbo state.
While the association la deliberating
how to got the privilege of selling liquor
and not allowing a man to drink his
medicine , the writer would respectfully
call tbo attention of the members to
another field of investigation , and one
which will repay tholr labors.
No ono but a drngglst can bo directly
Interested In the practical working of a
pharmacy law , and thcso arc now awak
ing to tbo fact that the silken flags of the
first conception has been so re-spun and
entwined ntjalu and again that as it now
la meshed nroand the victims , the Iowa
druggist find himself tied band and foot.
The babe of 1880 has developed into the
blustering giant of 1885.
Let the dtugglstB ask for a special com
mittee to report upon tbo practical work
ings of the pharmacy law , and what will
they find ?
A four pointers will assist them in their
Investigations. They will find that
20 per cent , of the druggists have left the
state or the trade in disgust ; that the
value of tbo stock in trada as property
has depreciated in real mercantile estima
tion over 50 per cent , so that If wo bad
SIO.000,000 of drugs in 1880 , today they
would not bring § 4,750,000 , If a man
should die his widow would not conduct
bis business , not oven to soil oil the stock
to the best advantage , unless she paid
some fledged registered pharmacist
875 per month , BO as to sell
poisons ot put up prescriptions when the
whole year's sales would not cover § 25
in any country town , and those are the
drug atoris which are the most numer
ous.
Although drug stores were eagerly
sought after SB a good investment before
188U , to day they are the very worst
property to have. No ono but a pharma
cist can buy and they have not always got
the money.
The law may benefit the city trade in
preventing small capitalists from inveat-
Icg their funds in tbis class of business ,
bat it works direct damsga to all
country trade.
It is directly oppoaad to the freedom of
our institutions in that It builds up a ,
of legislation which is only equalled by
that of tha Hindoo caste- system so re
volting and abhorrent to all true
Americans.
This law has boon of great advantage
to these wealthy druggists who have the
capital to invest in several stores , and
Eomo have throe or four such stores run
by yeung clerks with little bits of paste
board Tti'.h throe chosen names upon it ,
which qualification fits them for all the
responsibilities of pharmacy.
The wealthy druggists are tbo ones
who desire to keep this law in foice ; It ia
a gold mine for them and for the com
missioners who hold this sinecure office.
The writer is compelled by his profes
sion to travel all over this state and
visits most of the leading drug stores ;
nlno out of ten would hold up both hands
to repeal it. There are others who are
making the most strenuous ondotvors to
create more colleges of pharmacy of
couno they would enforce it to the very
utmost ; it is money and position for them
which their own natlvo talent or their
education wonld not give.
These commissioners in five years have
purged out some dczon of the licensees ,
several of whom never violated a law ,
and certainly If they had done were not
iiura guilty than the majority of tholr
fellows , not one of whom can truthfully
say ha has not got his own chcson coterie
of trus'od ' friends. Ono gentleman told
the wiiter that all ho had to do to keep
solid was to buy a good bill of the
interested manufacturer and "it fixed
him. " This may , or may not , bo true ,
buc It is true tbat discriminations are
mi da in enforcing this law ; a republican ,
although ho pleads guilty , retains his
certificate , while a democrat is not allowed
to prove his Innocence and loses his cer
tificate. One infamous thing is done In
the carrying out of this odious law. The
spy system of the old country has been
introduced and men are employed to lay
traps for , and convey sly and perverted
judgment upon thoto aqalmt whom ac-
tlou is desired to be maintained.
How long Is this manner of legislation
to continue ! Liberty lies bleeding at the
altar of popular misconstruction and
fanatical fury , blinded by old mots-
covorid b'gotry , still holds away. Tis
no wonder men resort to secret retalia
tion , for it makes no difference whether
the opprcsor bo the people under tbo
name of a state or a crowned king with
his royal mandate , manly liberty trill
assert itself , hcmau rights must bo main
tained and the privileges of citizenship
shall bo oDJoyul ,
In conclusion , lot the druggists enquire
If these things are not so , then move on-
masse and petition for.tho total repeal of
the law whtoh now enthralls them. The
people are the best judges as to whom
they will trust their proscriptions , and
not the few monopolists who have rained
tto drag business tot tholr own
agrandizjment. JOUN THOMPSON.

functions Asked Against Six Conn
oil Bluffs Saloons ,
Hope Hanging on the Alleged Dofcc
In the House Journal Saloon Men
Starting Cases ,
The war opened on the saloonlsts yes
tcrday , the sheriff portonally serving no
tices in six cases iu which injunction !
nra to bo asked for before Judge Connor ,
at Glonwood , on the 15th. These thus
notified to appear at that llmo and place
were : Charles Barghaneen , Smith &
Moyera , William Lacy , Mike Nolan , F.
Bokempor , and John Cramer. The person
asking that injunctions bo iisuod against
those parlies , to rottrain thorn from soil
ing intoxicating liquor * , laCapt. A. Over-
ton. This move was not wholly uuex
pected , and as thcro was no attempt to
seize stock or to compel immediate clos
ing of buslnots , the serving of the notices
created no special excitement , and there
were no such scones to record as charac
terized the attempt of the Macedonia
officers to clojo the falcons here last sum
mer.
mer.It Is understood that the saloon men
propose to make a legal fight , and ono of
the attornoya retained by them , said to a
BEE man yesterday , that no stone would
bo loft uaturnod to defeat the attempt to
make them closo. Every possible hook
will bo searched out , and taken advantage
of , and if there is any possible way of
escape , the saloon men will try to find it.
This threatened long fight in the courts
will ba a surprise to some , who thought
that if the first move was made the
saloons would bo closed without a
struggle.
The report of the recent decision of
Judge Lootbonrow has given hope to the
saloon men , it being virtually that there
Is a fatal mistake in the present prohibi
tory law , from the fact that the journal
of the honso does not show that the law
ever passed the honso , tbo record show
ing simply recording the fact that such a
bill was introduced , and afterwards that
it was pasted by the senate. This newly
discovered loop hole Is looked upon as a
way of cscapo from the penalties fixed by
the law , and if the defect proves to be as
claimed , it will be a tad blow to prohi
bitionists , and will put a stop to further
proceedings until a now legislature meets ,
and then there will be a fight to prevent
any prohibitory legislation.
The fact , as stated by responsible per
sons in a position to know , is that Judge
Loofbourow has not decided that there is
a defect in the passage of the law but in
deciding the oasss , ho simply stated that
ho wonld Issue a temporary writ of in
junction , and that ho would reserve the
decision on that point until the cases
came up on a final heating , BO that iho
point Is still to be battled over.
A strange move was started yesterday
on the anti-prohibitionist side of the
camp , It being to head off any moro cases
on the prohibitory sldo by getting up
totno cases themselves. Accordingly
there was some strange sights presented
of saloon men Retting out papers against
each other , the cases to como up before
Judge Ayloaworth to-day. Just what is
expected to bo gained by tbis point is not
apparent , but they have a point in view ,
doubtless , which they hops will result to
the advantage of thobusiness. Tbo saloon
men complained of ore : Dave MoAdams ,
John Kramer , Rapp & Allen , Fritz
Moyera , William Laoy , Smith & Meyers ,
P. Bechtelle , J. Neumeyer , Wagner &
Sherlock , Mary White , Theodore Lund ,
L. Kaahlo , F. Bokompor , Max Mohn ,
Hoist & Spotman , Forrest Klnnoy ,
Oliver Lowell , E. T. "McKin , some on
the list being well known hotel men
The petitioners getting out these papers
are , McCarthy , 0. Sohllmmo , and John
Coylo , and G. A. Bergman. The myt-
terlons move is recognized to bo and en
couraged by those who are not in favor
of enforcing tbo prohibitory law.
