" Cnp- turc lire villas About Iowa. The Poworn Tbnt The saloon men of Council Ulna's continue o flourish and grow fat financially , so fur as .ho mayor anil city marshal arc concerned. LJoth of thcso oftlclals have the power to close them up , if BO disposed , but no attempt .s mndo to do so by either of them. They were both elected by the liquor element , and are decidedly averse to doing anything ob- jcctlotmblo to this faction. Neither ono of ; hcm cares to shoulder the blame and each trios to shift the responsibility upon the other. The mayor admits that ho can clo o the saloons If t > o disposed , and has on several oc casions promised to do so If thu liquor dealers failed to pay monthly lines , and now the mayor Is placed In a decidedly ticklish posi tion. Ho must cither "go back on" his con stituents , by closing their saloons , or ho must iwek down from his position as gracefully as possible , and acknowledge that he Is a puppet in the hands of the saloon keopeis , who carry too many guns for him nnd can twist him around their fingers as they plca e. When the mayor iimdu his demands upon the saloon men he sincerely hoped and 111 inly bclloved that they would roino to time with out nny dlfllculty. Ho did not anticipate fern n moment that ho would bo called upon to carry out bis threat. What his future policy will bo is iihcmly apparent. Ho is beginning to weaken , nnd the result will bo a complete victory for the saloon keepers. Ho Midly laments that "tho papers have not stood by him , " ns though hu really expected that his course of intended licensing the breaking of thu state l.iw would bo upheld. None of the city oflleials uphold the mayor In his outlined course. The city solicitor be lieves tllat this plnii of levying or accepting monthly contribution of hush money con flicts directly with the statutes , and is noth ing more nor less than "condoning a public ofTcnse , " nnd would bring serious charges to the mayor's door. The executive's position Is Indeed unenviable. It is Impossible for him to stand still , nnd ho is afraid to jump cither diicction , for fear of "getting his foot In it. " His actions are awaited with in terest. The city mmshnl Is in hardly less pleasing attitude. Among the duties prescribed for him is that of enforcing all the laws , and bo Is liable for lines lor neglect. Ho IB not ex pected to wait for any orders from the mayor. The gambling houses running open , saloons thriving anil houses of prostitution numerous , with no prosecution except by private parties looks rather bad for both executive olllcers. It is not to bo wondered at that each sucks to throw the responsibility upon the other. For Snip. Ton acres in Council llluffR , oil the cast end of the Dullard SO.

Ho MIW the men approaching him , but as they were laughing and talking ho suspected nothing As they catno up ono of the fellows seized him while another struck at him from behind - hind with a long bladcd dirk. The intended victim warded oft the blow with his arm , but the knife cut through the rim of his hat and ploughed its way down through hia coat , cut ting a slit about a foot long through that gar ment , but not reaching his skin. At the snino instant Sclnooder received n terrific blow on the back of his neck , knocking him hcnselcss. Ills pockets were then rifled of $ U hi cash. Ho had been collecting during the day , and thinks that his assailants know that ho had money.

The following may explain in part , the methods certain newspapers are using to in crease ( ( ) their circulations- O vin t , Kent. : i--To the Editor of the Bun : You will confer a favor to me by answering through thu columns of the Bu : as soon ns possible the following question ! If any daily Journal should bo sent by mail orlcft hy u carrier tluvo tlmos in sue cession to any citwn who didn't subscribe for it , but kept and read the same while It was sent to him , does the law compel him to pay for it , if ho is not willing , Just because it wus sent three times to him , nnd kept and read by him. An early answer to this through Tin , Brr. will bo n favor to several of your subscribers. Cin/iv In ansiur to ttio above question It would seem almost unnecessary to say that no ( al leged ) newspaper can bo forced upon any one. Should ho subscribe for it the paper may bo delivered to him until ho pays all ar- 10 irs , and the law compels him to pay for It under such circumstances. Drink Mnlto. DIebold Knits.
