Tin ; move of the city council to secure
tlio ostablislimeiit of a city hospital is in
the ri hl diieclion. This city lias not a lit
place whore a t-lran rcr can be taken if
injured or taken ill. Tlio noisy hotels or
Iho dirlj jails nro this only pl.ieos , and
they are not do-irablo for hospital imr-
po > o .
The question , of having the people elect
ne.\t spring a superintendent or : i board
of public works , is boiug disetissvd souio-
what. Asoiiooftho aldermen has re
marked , "this city has gone at its public
improvements in _ n sort of pell moll way ,
and it is about time some .s.yMein and
.somq responsible supervision of work was
pro\itleil. "
There has boon a good deal of addition
al book-keeping nocossk.itpd by the spe -
ial iisspsiinent .systom of paying for im-
provcinenls. It has been thoii"lH : that
much of this should bo done by tlio eity
auditor , whose duties now are _ not very
arduous. Jn order to make this arrange
ment il is proposed to change the 01 di
mmer defining the duties of city olllcors.
The pupils of the Illoomer .school are to
give an enlcrtaimnent in the openi hou eon
on Friday evening. This will give an
opportunity for tlio public to _ too what
work is being done by the puhlio schools ,
and promises to bo tin interesting show
ing. The tickets are only 5 cents , with
no extra charge for reserved heats The
financial object is lir.-t lo pay ( \ | > enso.s ,
r' and whatever surplus there may he will
bo expended on the museum of natural
history already well started in the liloomer
building.
The undertakers under the present law
arc required to present u physician's eu-
tillcate of death before they can secure
Iho jioiu-.ir. ! > burial permit. Frequently
the undertaker lindh it dilieult to get mien
u ccrlllietito just when he needs it , uphysi-
ciaji sometimes being away and delay
' being thus caused. The iiuderlakcr.s
! * want thn law so changed that the phj.il-
einni Miall bo obliged to fdo the eeitili-
catns with Iho eity clerk M > that when the
undei lakers neftd the burial permit they
can procure ono without delay.
The mayor yesterday afternoon drew ,
from the eity treasury Sl''fl for Iho ex-
poiihii of going to Ue.s Jloines to attend
the meeting ol mayors to bo held there
to-day. Tlio council appropriated ifloO ,
sind tlio mayor drew $ . ' . " > of it several days
r ago to hciid the local committco there for
some purpose , probably to helpmeet the
nxpons-0 of hiring it hall or n band of music.
The mayor promises to give tin account
of his expenses to the auditor on his ro-
Inrn , anil will pay back what is not spout
As the mayor doubtless travels on a , pass
ho will probably turn back into the city

I'.iirns. lie sjVs , the improvements will
be made a- , soon as practical. He asUs
for more lime on the K'"l ( l lllllt ll. ' °
companv has the bridge enterprise in
hand , which is taking much attention and
money. The a-s irance is given that the
company will at once extend the track
and operate the curs to the Uroadway
Methodist elmrch , and the oilier exten
sion will be considered a- , soon as pome
of the ollicials return from the east.
The intimation was i\en that the
Union I'.ieilie had under consideration
t-oinu mailers of rout importance to t Ins-
city which arc not ripe tor divnl-jcncc.
The council , like most of thnciti/ens pm
little hope to this inyr-tcrioifly whimpered
intimation of great things to be done for
Council Hhtfl's in the future. Such whis-
iicriiiK- ' have been mvcn from time to
time during the past live years but little
has yet appeared. When Union avenue
was "donated by the city , bneli an intima
tion was then used as a lever to move the
council to give this valuable piece ot
property to the Union I'aoilie. Still , the
city does not feel like making si war
against the street ear company or the
Union Pacific until further opportunity is
n-iven for the doing of these ; rpat things
for Council Blufl's. There is u strong op
position "rowing daily against thu grant
ing of any more favors until something w
done toward making good the promises
already given The .street ears are u dis
grace to any city , ami they run .simnlj us
a sort of cheap omnibus line to and from
the trains. ' 1 he company says that the
line will nol pay to improve , but the ex
periment of rnnninj' a ical .street car line
has never been tried hero. . .
The city council has deemed that it is
too small business to refuse the request of
the company for permission to change its
turn table , and has concluded to let the
change bo made. IL has also been de-
cidednot to make any move to revoke the
charter of the company at prcsvnt.
Alderman Seidentopf has voted against
even letting the turn table be moved , lie
still is on the war path , and declares that
if the council will take no action to make
the company comply \ \ .tit . the charter , he
and other citizens will join in an action
of mandamus and pay the expense out of
their own pockets He 1 A- > lo-t all
patience in the matt'-r , and Miys that
there are enough citizens ready to join
with him to make a strong light.

Important Decision 1'or
The Iowa supreme court has just ren
dered a decision which is of special
interest to pharmacists , and of general
public interest as it touches upon the pro
hibition law. The casn is that uf the State
vs. V. Hissoll and I'M. Lelion , appealed
from Harrison county district court.
The question in issue is whether it was
necessary for a registered pharmacist to
obtain a permit before ho conhl fell
liquors for medical purposes. The clictrict
court hclil that Mich permit , was ) necessary ,
and this is allirmed in the decision given
by Justice Heck. The meat of the whole
decision in contained in the follovving :

should want to wet down a lot of unruly

Who ( Shall l > nj for Sewer * ?
In assessing for sovvorajro tlioro ncom
in b juuin injustices which arise One
instance is cited as regards the Ogden
house. The house sewer on Broudvvsiy IB
the one which the hotel taps and uses ,
and that is all the hotel needs. A house
sewer has been laid along Park avenue
on the west sida of the Ogdcn house , and
it is expected to pay for its share of that
also , although it has no use for it. The
property owners sdong Pierce street and
above Uioro on Park avenue , however ,
need to have Iho sewer run ftlong there
in order to haru an outlet. It is claimed
that the Ogden house should not be taxed
for u i-cvver laid to accommodate these
property owners and the property owners
claim that , having paid for sewers in front
of their places , they should not be taxed
for sewers on the next block. Other sim
ilar cases are arising , and the city will be
obliged to make some equitable adjud-
merit. It is argued that if such in ad-
jnstmont is allowed on Howerago , then u
like adjustment would be demanded on
paving , wliITo parties claim that they
need paving only in front of their prop
erty and do not want it on the side street.

Under the present mode of assessment
for paving and like improvements the
ovv ners ot corner lots b.-iv e had an o\tra
bin don of taxation Such work is taxed
up to tlm abutting properly , and in case
of a cornel1 lot ills assessed for that part
of the pav ing , embing , etc , in trent of it ,
and then when the side street is im
proved. it has to pa\ for all tlio work
along the side. This m.ikcsa heavy drain
in some cases on the poekotbook of the
ovv nor of a corner lot Some of these
owners have protc-ted iigainM. such a
mode of tisse < sinent not equitable. Thc.\
claim that the paving of the do streets
not only benolils the corner lots , | ml adds
to the value of the other lot in the block
Tli03r have requested the council to take
some action by which the other lots may
be called on to bear part of the expense
City Attorney Holmes | IH ; been looking
uii the law ! and lie unhesitatingly de
clares that there is no chance for the cor
ner lot owners to be relieved as asked
for. Ho holds that corner lots arc more
valuable , and in justice should pay more
than the other lots.
