FACTIONS OVER FRACTIONS ,
The Mayor aoil Alfleraen Cannot Agree
as lo Bat a Two-Thirds Vote Is ,
The Latest Fares ,
A special special meeting of the city
council has boon called for this evening
to conaldor the vote of the mayor. This
vote has called forth much comment , but
ittlo of It has boon very flattening to the
mayor. It Booms generally conceded that
there is nothing to the affair , except the
possible gaining cf a little moro notoriety
riety for the mayor , and thla Is the com
monly accepted theory of what his mo
tive ia In vetoing the resolution , aa ho ia
credited with having enough aonso to
rializo that there ia no chance for him to
sncaoasf ally defy the action of the council ,
Ono of the strong points , as claimed by
him , and laughed at by other * , ia that It
will require five ont of the sixaldcrmanto
votes to pass the resolution over hla veto.
If this was true it might bo difficult to
[ iass the resolution over his head , aa
iVldorincn Mynstornnd Geito will doubtless -
loss vote to sustain any action of the
mayor , leaving the other four to vote
solid against the mayor. The city council
s peculiarly organized , for there being
) Ut six members In all , four is only a
nsjorlty , and at the same time four lo n
tiro-thitda vote.
The following In the recently passed
'aw ' , giving the mayor a veto power , is
; ho basis on which the mayor claims that
.t will require five votes out of the six In
order to pass anything over his head. Ho
claims that "two-thirds "
- majority" moans
moro than a "two-thirds voto" and that
ont of slxvotoo , four , or two-thirds , ia by
10 means a "two-thirds majority. " This
Ino splitting of hairs strikes the man of
average common sense as being as much
waste of words aa it la a waste of time ,
The rectlons read :
"Upon the return of the ordinance or
resolution by the mayor to the city coun
cil they may pass the same npon a call of
the yeas and nays by not less than two-
thirds vote of all the members cf said
council over the mayor's vote , and the
clerk or recorder of such city shall cor-
tifon said ordinance that tbo same was
passed by a two-thirds vote of the council
sign It officially aa clerk or city re
corder.
"But if any ordinance fails to obtain
at least a two-thirds majority of all the
council elected of auoh city , after being
vetoed by the mayor , then such ordinance
or resolution shall bo void and of no
effect. "
.The friends of the mayor and hang-on
city officials have quoted freely this last
section of the law. but bavo carefully
avoided saying any thing about the pre
ceding section which shows clearly that
in order ( o pass a measure over the vote
there must bo two-thirds of all the alder
men who vote in favor of thus passing It
ovoc his head. In the present case there
ia no doubt that four aldermen will thus
vote , and there Is no doubt that four ID
two thirds of six.
The real trouble starts in the action of
the council doing away with so much of
the power and patronage of tbo com
mittee on streets and alloys , of which
Aid. Mynstor Is chairman. The council
haa decided to divide np the city Into
improvement districts , each ward being a
district , and under the charge of the al-
dorraan of that ward. This nas excited
the ire of Aid. Mynster , and ho gladly
icoka revenge , and with hia democratic
brothers , Aid. Goise and the mayor , pro
poses to hinder the republican aldermen
In their choice of city clerk and chief of
the fire department.
The whole affair is a good deal of a
farce , and will end as the other farces
have ended. The only thing resulting
will bo.tho widening of the breach be
tween the mayor and a majority of the
council , and as they are in power to
thwart hla pot plans , and causa him a
jood deal of annoyance his position Is
not a very desirable ono.
HEAVY DAMAGES ,
Mills County Called on to Pay $35-
OOO for a Faulty Bridge.
Jn the circuit court of Mills county the
past week has been taken up with the
trial of tbo caao of Elizabeth Cooper va.
Mills county , the plaintifl claiming $35-
000 damages for Injuries received by the
falling of a bridge over a creek near the
town of Henderson , over which bridge
oho and her family wore passing. The
details cf the caao are about as follows :
On the 4th of July , 1882 , Mrs. Cooper
with her family had been attending a eel
ebration at String's grove , a short dla
tanco from this bridge. About 5 o'clock
the started homo in a lumber wagon , no
companlod by the hired man and eoren
children , their way leading across Farm
creek. They entered upon the bridge on
a slow walk , and when about two-thirds
of the way across , and just im
mediately over the piling and bent-work
which supported ono end of the middle
upon of thirty-two feet and the approach
of twenty feet In length , the piling and
bont-work doubled and fell Inward toward
the stream "wont down like a dead
fall , " the inmates of the wagon testified
dropping the horses and wagon and
the parties in it a distance of twelve or
fifteen foot. Mrs. Cooper , with a little
child she hold In her arm ) , wes In some
manner thrown Into the water , from
which , by the prompt appearance of help ,
they were rescued. The child was unin
jured , but Mra. Ooopor , after taking a
few steps , sank helpless to the ground ,
From that day oho has never taken a stop ,
and is now not able to rise from her bed ,
or stand alone. Skilled physicians , In
eluding Dr. Macrao of Council Bluffs , ]
and Dr. Coffman of Omaha , testified
that the plaintiff la now suffering from
severe concussion of the spine , and that
the injury will bo life-long , while * the
probabilities ars that it will materially
shorten herllfo.
For cause of action the plaintiff alleged
defective and negligent construction of
the bridge in that the piling were insuf
ficiently driven Into the ground , and
bont-work six feet high was erected
thereon without being securely enough
fastened to prevent "buckling/ ' and the
use of decayed material when tbo bridge
was rebuilt a few months before the acci
dent. The defense was that the bridge
was well and properly made , and that
the accident wai caused by unusually
high water , which undermined the
piling and produced a landslide. Upon
these theories scores of witnesses were
examined , many of them experienced
bridge builders. Portions cf the piles
that fell , of rotten material , and sped-
men * of the soil under the bridge , bare
boon brought by witnesses and exhibited
to the jury.
John Y. Btaae and Frank Shinn ap-
pear for tbo plainliflT , ami Watklns
Williams , Lewis & Youog , nnd
Anderson for the county.
Tno jary yesterday returned n verdict
for the plaintiff , fixing her damages at
(25,000 , which WAS a surprise to many ,
even those who expected that the verdict
would bo in her favor bardly thinking
that , she would bo given such heavy
damages.
Two moro cases are pending growing
ont of the same accident , and the final
outcome Is naturally looked forward to
with much Interest by tbo tax-payers of
that county.
