UIB CITY COUNCIL.
A Lively Tlmo Over the 1'nvlng In *
proYctncnt * .
The city council met last night with
Alderman Wells in the chair , ho being
president ot the council , it was the first
iiccting this year that the mayor has
jccu absent. Ho is in eastern Iowa on
juainuss.
The electric light contract was finally
approved and the mayor authorized to
BiL'tl it.
The sidewalk construction bids wcro
awarded to E. A. Wlckham.
The committee on streets nnd alleys
recommended the bids of C. 11. Mitchell ,
J. W. Kelly and O. W. Gordon be accep
ted , concurred In. A light was caused
by the committee recommending the bids
of the Omaha & Council liluils Paving
company bo accepted. Metcalf moved
It bo concurred In. Keller asked the bid
bo rejected , ono reason being the bid was
higher than last year. Metcalf jumped
upon his feet and said he hoped to sco
some improvement in this city , and hoped
n vote would bo forced. Lacy showed up
Keller's idea to bo wrong about paving
after cowering , in his estimation.
Ho was applauded , and the chair made
no attempt to stop it , A. J. Graham , as
a citizen , didn't sco how a man could
get up and say it coat
more than last year when
ho paid a cent more last year than they
asked this year. Engineer Tostcvin ex
plained how paving was done shortly
after sewering. Lacy said ho was glad
ho had got Tostcvin on record , as it was
the first timo'lostevln had ever done so.
Ho denied what Tostevin said ; there is
no depression in pavement on Park ave
nue ; Tostevin was engineer when the iill
was made and paving done the next day
or so. Tostovin denied it and Lacy ro-
nllirmcd it. It was nothing but hot
words and contradictions on both sides ,
they being called to order several times.
Lacy seemed satisfied to place Tostovin
on record as stopping improvements.
Lucy said to him : "Why do you co
around and tell people the city is laying
itself liable by paving ? " "That is just
what the city is doing , " ho replied. The
chair said they wished no interference ,
and finally quiet was restored. Met
calf wanted Glen avenue left
out of the report of the committee. Lacy
wouldn't accept it but amended it to
leave out above High school avenue ,
which Motcalf agreed to. Keller wanted
to know what the figures were the city
Had to work on. He said $1,800 to pave
intersections with was too small , and
gave this as his reason for not wanting
any paving this year. Lacy said there
had been no paring since Keller was
elected. It was all ordered before ho
got in and would bo paid for after ho
was out. The city is paj ing interest that
isn't duo. The chair put the question ,
Hammer and Keller being the two
against improvements once more , witii
Danforth , Metcalf , Lacy and Wells voting
ing aye , and the report was carried.
Lacy asked the city engineer bo in
structed lo bring the plans for sewerage
before the council as there had been
complaints mado. Tostovin said he
would. Tortcvin entered the council
chamber with a book about Cxi foot in
size \yith nil the maps he could carry
and laid the entire lot on the desk of
Lacy. Lacv asked if plans called
for house connections. Engineer said
that none wcro called for. "Then
why do you put thorn in and
leave them out at will , " said Lacy. Tos
tcvin explained his reasons. Lacy said
ho was thinking of making a motion to
djscliarco the city attorney , as the en
gineer had put in the Fourth street sewer
\yithout a hose connection on the. west
side of the street , and in consequence the
city would have to pay for it. If the en
gineer was to serve as city attorney as
well as engineer the attorney might as
well bo dispensed with.
The electric light masts wcro located
ns follows : Ono ono Broadway and First
street , ono on Broadway amliourth , ono
corner of Sixth street and Thirteenth
avenue , ono at Broadway and Oak struct ,
ono on Ross street , 130 leot west of Oak
land avenue.
The ordinances of the city andsuburban
railway company were passed.
An ordinance was road the first time
giving the National Standard Gas Light
company , of Chicago , the right to huild ,
maintain and supply gas in the city.
The Stnto > r Texas Chanced.
The notorious don of prostitution and
vice on lower Broadway , known as
"Texas' Ranch " stands
, a good show
now for being completely broken up.
The house was recently pulled , and the
grand jury found indictments against
several of the inmates. Richard Barker ,
known as "Texas" is ono of the best
known coons in the city , and his wife is
n swarthy hearty field hand. Ho has been
living with the woman for years , and
when the road began to got too rocky of
late , ho thought to straighten his record
somewhat by getting a marriage license
nnd wedding her. It was too lato. The
reputation of the house as a resort for
both black and white prostitutes was too
firmly established. The place has caused
much trouble to the police and the citi
zens , and when the facts wcro presented
to a jury yesterday , the twelve men
quickly brought in n verdict of guilty ,
which opens the penitentiary door to
both Texas and his woman. Texas has
boon in court many times , on different
charges , and the present county attorney ,
Colonel Daily , was always his attorney.
' 1 his time it seemed strange to sco the
colonel in the role of prosecuting attor
ney , but ho carried bis part well , and
conviction followed. This will , proba
bly , save the county much good money ,
us hardly a term of court has passed in
which some of the Tcxans were not in
volved in some trouble , needing adjust
ment.
Several other inmates of the don nro
being tried. Ono of them is a white
woman. She has grown rather swarthy
by contact or by dirt , and is as degraded
a creature ns can well bo imagined.
It will bo A cause of rejoicing to many
in the neighborhood that this dirty don
of iniquity is to bo broken up. There
are others in the city almost , perhaps
fully as bad , and query arises why this
swarthy house should DO singled out , and
those containing white inmates should
bo allowed to run. It seems there should
bo no distinction of color.
Trnnnrorroil to California.
Rov. E. D. McCroary , whoso pastorate
of the Broadway Methodist church has
just expired , has been transferred to the
California conference , and appointed to
ono of the churches of San Francisco.
Ho nnd his family expect to leave for thai
city in about two weeks. Ono of the
principal reasons for the change is the
hope of bettering Mrs. McCruary's health ,
Dr. McCrcury will attend the annual ses
sion of the Iowa conference in DOE
Moines this week. The announcement
of the transfer will come with surprise to
many , there having boon no announce
ment of the probability oven of such s
change. The California conference thus
gains ouo of the strongest of Iowa's
preachers.
Talk About TaxcM.
"Of course there is considerable kick
ing about taxes , " remarked City Auditor
Kinnchau. "There always is , but there
is little real occasion for it. This city U
not taxed up'to what thn law allows aftei
all. It is supposed that the assessor wll
list the property at 40 per cent of th <
real valuation , but It does uot average
moro than. 30 per cent of what the prop
crty is reallj wortU , TU IQW VttluallQl
Is what brings the total down to f 1,503-
780. Of course the rate of taxation looks
lilgh , but the low valuation should betaken
taken into account , nnd it then appears
that the taxes hero nro realty low. "
"What Is needed for the general city
expenses ? "
"Wo need about $00,000 n year for cur *
rent expenses , nnd our general fund tax
amounts to only about 145,000. This
leaves a deficiency of about $15,000. This
used to bo covered by saloon licenses
alone , but there are no moro saloon li
censes. There are no licenses cither
from the gambling houses. If the prop
erty of the city was assessed at its full
valuation it would amount to fully $15-
000,000 and with n 2 per cent tax for gen
eral purposes , it would bring in a revenue -
enuo of | 300,000 , which would onnblo this
city to go ahead with every sort of Im
provements. As it is , the hands of the
allicials nro tied , and the council is
blamed for not going ahead. The coun
cil is doing the best it can , but as the law
now is there is little chance. "
"What remedy do you suggest ? "
"The only show is for the legislature to
take some action by whicb the law will bo
changed. Steps nro to bo taken by the
cities of the first class for a united move
on the legislature this winter , nndwo
hope something will bo done. The actual
valuation would bo much moro equitable
for rich and poor alike. As it is the rich ,
with an abundance of property get the
advantage , while n poor man , who has
only a house and lot , cannot conceal any
of his property , and cannot prevent its
being assessed tor all that it ought to bo.
There can be little difference in judg
ment as to what n little house nnd lot is
worth , but when it comes to big blocks
of buildings and other largo amounts of
property , there is chance for a wide dif
ference as to judgment on the assess
ment nnd the rich get the benefit of the
lowest amount. The present method of
taxation also gives a wrong impression
to outsiders. They do not know that the
assessed valuation is so far below the
real valuation , and they therefore think :
the taxes too high. It frightens would-
bo investors. "
"How arc the city finances now ? "
"It makes close figuring until the now
taxes come In. The city is running on
credit a good deal. Last year wo had an
assessed valuation of $3,835,000 , and this
brought in $30,730 , which was the
total amount of the general fund tax for
thn fiscal year. The current expenses for
this year amount to $58,000. There being
no licenses from saloons or gambling
houses there is only the police fund to
help swell the receipts. That fund will
amount to perhaps $8,000. So you see
that there is a fair prospect of the city
running $10,000 behind for the year.
This explains why so largo a judgment
tux is levied. It is to pay off warrants
which huvo been issued and which could
only bo met by having them put into
judgments when , until the law , the city
can levy a tax to pay thorn. It would bo
cheaper to levy the tax in a regular way
on a true valuation , and thus save de
preciation in warrants , interest and
costs. "
Police I'olntH.
There was quite a gathering in police
court yesterday ,
Judge Aylesworth arrived at the usual
hour , with his usual cigar and in his
usual costume , but for all the weather
promised to bo rattier hot , tiio judge
were his silk tile , A magistrate on the
police bench without n high hat , proba
bly from custom , apparently seems
rather out of placo. His Honor is not
this kind of a judge however , and sel
dom , if over , to the inquisitive looker-on
seetnd out of place. Ho upparautly ,
most always , knows just what to do and
does it without much deliberation.
The oflbndors seemed rather inclined
to talk very low , probably they were not
fairly awake , but it only took n few
minutes to reuse thorn up.
George Do Long pleaded guilty to being -
ing drunk , but on the suggestion of the
city marshal ) , the case against him for
disturbing the pcaco * < \ as dismissed. Ho
was taxed $7.00.
The judge then asked "Johnny" Bell
what his name was. The young man had
came into court to sco his Irieiul DoLong ,
and wasn't under arrest ho said. The
city marshal ! reminded him of an assault
case that was against him , for which his
deputy Mr. Barhyto , had a warrant. The
warrant was served , but a "not guilty"
plea was entered and the case continued
until this morning. As the man who
swore out the warrant had not put in an
appearance since he filed the complaint ,
it is unlikely that ho will appear to-day.
Henry Schmidt , as a vagrant , was dis
charged because ho hud n job.
Richard Listen was fined $7.60 for in
toxication.
M. H. Jamison , drunk , assault and
carrying concealed weapons , was fined
$8.10 on the first charge , but pleaded not
guilty to the others. Ho was remanded
for further hearing when the witnesses
could bo present.
James Tuuuoy was given a line of
$8.10.
Frank Terry , who was so sick and un
able to work that the judge feared ho
would die before ho reached his home ,
was discharged upon promise to not
"vag'Mt any moro.
"What's yoiir name , Bradshaw ? " said
the judge.
"Yes , " replied Bradshaw.
"Ira. { )
"Yes "
"You're nineteen ? "
"Yes. "
"Woodsawyer ? "
"Yes. "
"American ? "
"Yes. "
It was evident that his honor had n
previous acquaintance witli the simpleminded -
minded youth.
"Boon sawing wood ? "
"Yes. "
"Had your hands behind you when you
did it , I suppose ? "
"Yes. "
"Will have to send you to jail for
thirty days. "
"Yes. "
"Toll Jimmy O'Ncil to turn the hose
on him and gut the crooners oil. "
"Yes , " replied Bradsliaw , as ho was
started oil' .
H. Boucher loft $7.CO with the city.
Ed Cross not appearing forfeited his
appearance money.
"Salvation Army Walker" then en
tered prepared to fight the charge of
stealing n piece of the range of the Mcs-
ropolitan hotel. Witli him was his
twelve-year-old boy. .who' was arrested
as an accomplice. Walker wanted his
case continued until ho won his case
agiinst the city for damoges , ns ho was
arrested for canvassing without a li
cense.
The judgn probably thought it rather
indefinite , so concluded to allow a hear
ing to-day. Walker then said ho was
going to have a saloon man arrested for
selling to a minor to gel oven.
The quartette , Pope , Leo , Johnson and
Hamilton wcro then brought from the
county jail , wl.qro they had spent Sun
day , and wcro lined $8.70 each.
The case against George Newman for
dlsturbaneo of the pcaco was then tried
at 11 o'clock.
A Blftze In a Steeple.
The small steeple of the now Catholic
church was discovered to bo on fire about
11 o'clock last night. The department
was called out and extinguished the blaze
before any damage had Icon done. It is
thought that the tire ctuight from the sol
dering apparatus nsed by the roofers
during the day and had been smoulder
ing for hours.
