The resignation of Mayor Vaughan
may cause a few daj's interim between
the time of his stepping out and Col.
Chapman stepping in. It is understood
that Alderman Mynstcr , as president of
the council , wjll serve as mayor. Brief
glory , but it gives him the title of Mayor
Mynster.
The Grand Detour Plow company three

Burglars visited O. H. Brown's drug

The police are atwork on the slight clue ?
loft. The follows evidently hoped to get
more , as there is usually a larger amount
of cash left in the desk , but lortnnately
for the linn the cash had been removed ,
and there was $50 which the burglars
overlooked.
The Swanson Music company have in

and attracts much attention. It is about
twenty-one inches long by ten inches

interest by hundreds daily.

desiring to thus club together can bo
easily accommodated and very cheaply.
The mayor of my city has resigned.
The reasons as given by himself appear
elsewhere. He no doubt prefers to nave
the records appear that he gave up the
position voluntarily than that the people
gave him up. It seems a good deal on
the sumo nrinciplo by which convicts are
often pardoned out a day or two before
their terms expire. The difference in
time does not amount to anything , but
the record looks a little belter. When his
next batch of cards are printed ho will
have , doubtless , the date of his resigna
tion upon thorn , giving to the nation the
idea that he might have been mayor
longer , but that he chose , to give tip the
position. It makes but little dillercnco ,
however , so long as ho is got out. His
farewell , like all of his state papers , is u
great advertisement for himself. What
ever faults Vniiglmn has , ho is n great
rustler for himself , and it is needless for
anybody to waste any sympathy on him.

feet in a now spot , and llmtright quickly.

Three Times and Out.
The case of Gilman & Co.vs Yot/.or &
Rapp has been decided m favor of the
defendants , The case has been fought
inch by inch , and has taken up most oi
the wok in the circuit court. Gilmun &
Co. , now of Davenport , owned an eleva
tor at Atlantic , and they sold , or claimed
to have sold , $5,000 worth of wheat to Yet-
zcr Happ , but before it was delivered the
elevator burned , and the question was as
to whether the dolondants should pay foi
the wheat. In settling the loss with the
insurance companies Gilman & Co. lig-
red out the loss to bo over $5,000 , the
amount of the insurance , but added the
wheat involved in this suit , making the
total amount of the loss shown us $11,000.
' 1'hcso proofs of loss were used against
Gilman & Co. as proof that they lid not
consider that the ownership of the wheat
Iiad actually passed to Yct/.er & Kmp ; nt
the time the wheat was burned. Gitman
& Co. claimed that the.y wore induced to
figure this wheat into the loss , as the ad-
juslor wnulcil to make as good a showing
as possible with his company us justifica
tion for paying the insurance. The case
has been tried before Judge lived at At
lantic and the jury disagreed. It was
then tried before iiuugo Lyman hero and
u ye diclgivcnfor the defendant. Now ,
on n third trial , the same result comes.
Mr. Cook of Davenport appeared for the
pluintill's and Mr. Delano of Atlantic for
the defendants.

To-Day's Election.
To-day occurs the annual school elec
tion. There seems to be little agitation
over the matter , and the choice of voters
will bo made up largely from personal
preferences , there being conceded to be
no political lines drawn. The two retir
ing members of the boartl , J. 13. Atkins
anil T. S. Couch , arc candidates for re
election. ' .There is no serious light being
made upon them , as was the case hist
year , when two members of the board
sought re-election. Other good men are
candidates for the positions , however.
L. Bridenstein. Charles Loucks , Dr. Bel
linger and George Blaxsim are among
these , and the people will therefore not
make any great mistake , whomever of
these arc chosen. The school interests
are more important than many citizens
rcali/.u. There is a great deal of money
to be handled , a. largo amount of prop
erty to bo eared for , and the education of
hundreds of future citizens will bo shaped
moro or less by the character of the board
which controls the school system of the
city. Voters should therefore use their
franchise , and use it intelligently. There
are not so many loaves and lishes to bo
distributed as in other elections , but the
importance to the city is as ereat as any.
It is to bo regretted that J. M. Mat
thews has decided to withdraw his name
from consideration to-day. Ho is so en
thusiastic and experienced in school mat
ters , and has shown so much ability and
good judgment in this line , that ho would
bo a very valuable member of the board ,
and the people would gladly choose him.
Ho is out of the race now. and the choice
will doubtless be among those named.
Besides the selection of school directors
there arc thu following two propositions
to bo voted upon.
1 Shall the board of directors of the
independent school district of Council
Bluilsbo authorised to sell lot No. 0 in
block No. 1 , Glondalc addition to the city
of Council Bluffs , Jown , and a strip of

proceeds of such stile or so much thereof
as shall be necessary to cut down and

building ,
2 Shall the board of directors of the

COUNCIL BLUFFS , lown , March 0 , 1880.
To the City Council of the City of
Council Bluffs Gentlemen : I hereby
tender to you , and through you to the
itlzons of this city , my resignation ot the
olliee of mayor for the remainder of my
ollieial term , the same to take effect
Wednesday , March 10 , 1830.
I have ready for press n work entitled
"Lifo Sketches of Thomas A. Hendrieks ,
From the Cradle to the Grave , " written
l > y Colonel A. T , Whittlescy , who was the
life long friend of Governor llcndricks ,
and served as his secretary for four years.
1 am also publishing a book entitled "A
History of the Governors of Iowa ami
Nebraska , and Other Prominent Men. "
1 ought to have been in New York in the
interest of my publications sixty days ago
and cannot delay going longer.
In retiring Irom the public service al
low mo to say I have served as the chief
executive ollieor of this city during portions
tions of the vcars 1831 and 1882 and again
in the years 1831 , 1835 and 1880 to the best
ot my ability. Under the latter part of
my administration several miles of gran
ite stone and cedar block pavement nave
been constructed , costing , with other
street improvements , nearly § 400,030. , It
became my dtity , as the executive of
ficer of your city , to sell the bonds
of the municipal government necessary
to defray the cost of the construction of
those improvements. As the bonds were
not sacrificed , nor sold at a discount , 1
think 1 may claim Unit the sale gave pub
lic satisfaction. During tiic time I have
served the people our water works have
been put in successful operation , the elec
tric lighf-systom has been devised and
put into satisfactory service , and other
indications of progress have restored life
and activity to this growing city.
For the valuable assistance rendered
mo , in the encouragement of every enter
prise , by thrifty citi/.en-s and public spir
ited aldermen , I shall always feel grate
ful and deeply indebted. But as my time
is limited , and my private engagements
with my book publishers demand instant
attention , and as the signing of warrants ,
bonds , ordinances , certificates and other
public documents must bo done by the
mayor , and the delay of nearly half a
month might cause serious inconveni
ence , I have thought it my bounden duty
to tender my resignation. 1 retire from
olliee cntcrtainink sentiments of grati
tude alicl respect for all who
have been associated with mo , and
wish the city and her inhabitants unex
ampled prosperity in the future.
Vorv respectfully ,
AV. 11. VAUGHAN.

BUSINESS OPENTNGslN MEXICO.
Who Do and "Who Do Not Mnkc Money
Ventures for Americans.
City of Mexico correspondence to Bos
ton Herald : Many young men write here ,
asking if there is an opening lor them.
Some desire clerkships and others have a
small capital which they wish to invest
in hauls. It is not advisable for a young
man to come here in quest of a clerkship ,
especially if unacquainted with the Span
ish language. Clerkships here , unless
secured beforehand in some strongly es
tablished house or in a corporation , are
not satisfactory. A young follow coming
hero should have some good prospect of
a steady rise in position , else ho had bet
ter stay at homo. Without the language
ho will bo of little use to himself or any
one else. A young Bostonian who
came here a short time ago remarked
in unconcealed astonishment : "Why ,
everybody speaks Spanish hero , you
know. " If a Mexican had said to him in
ftton that everybody spoke English , ho
would have sut that Mexican down as an
idiot. For men with small capitals for
investment in lands Mexico is not the
country. For some time to como syndi
cates and large capitalists will continue
to purchase big tracts , and agriculture
will bo carried on in this way. Not until
some tuiio will small tracts uo available.
There is a field hero always for men wjtli
useful specialties. First-class mechanics
who can afford a trip hero to look over
the ground might well come , and people
with odd knacks which are worth money.
For example , a young Portuguese came
hero recently on a venture. His
only art was ' 'a rare ability to
paint on silk. This seemed a mighty poor
capital to invest here , but ho got an in
troduction into wca'Hhj families , and has
now a good incomq from ter.cliiiig the
scnoritas his novel and beautiful art.
The Mexicans love' decorations and the
decorative arts. Somolyoung people are
doing well here as jtutbrs of English in
rieli families , for English is a , fasion-
able rage , and the scnoritas like to be
able to say a few charming things in the
language of Sluike'spcc'-arr. It is quite
the elegant tiling to uo able to sav ' 'good
byo" and "how do you do ? " in English ,
and the zeal with which some young
Mexican ladies purs'ue English is worthy
of the Boston girl's.craab on German.
Cafe keeping hero .is profitable ; and.
as wo have an American barbershop and
American bar-room's , it seems quite feasi
ble to make money out of an American
cafe whore one could get buckwheat
cakes , pumpkin pie ( good pumpkins
row hero ) , lish-balls and other Yankee
§ ishcs. An elderly Englishman here has
made money out of a regular Johnny
Bull eating-house , where one can get
beef and plum pudding and ale ad lib.
The French have their cafe , with their
own cooking , but the American tourist
finds little that is-familiar here. A gen
uine American restaurant , run by a live
and energetic man , would pay well.
The growing taste tor American light
carriages suggests the idea that an Amer
ican livery stable would bo a ] > rolitable
venture. Rent need not be high , and
labor would be very cheap , and 1 think
that the youth of fllexico would patroni/.e
liberally a good stable where nne teams
for display on the Pasco could bo had.
There nru not many good carriage roads
here , but there is an opportunity to rent
out phietons , buggies , etc. It would bo
a decided novelty here. And why not
a livery stable as well as the present
roller skating rink , where the jeuncsso
dorce of Mexico go to bark their shins
and crack their crowns. The desnised
roller skating rink is succeeding here ,
and down in vera Cruz they regard their
rink as a most delightfully fashionable
place of entertainment.
Another American novelty which is
paying handsomely hero is the circus ,
permanently established near where the
inquisition used to bother people with
little iron arrangements for extracting
information.
