Of the Indebtedness at the present time ,
about one-hall' , or $ . ' 1,000 , Is on account of Iho

could bocolluctiul from suliacriptlitiis be
fore mentioned , together with the rents from
the iH-fit lloor and an Increase of the loan ,
would bofuiflidentto p.iy outstanding bills.
About $ . ' ,000 , lias been realiziU from tbo sub-

even now bills to the amount of nbout ? > iWi ( )
remain unpaid , which uccounts fur the lint
half of tlio indebtedness referred to.
.Mow , hi regard to the second iVMK ) , Dur-
Ingtho cauviis forsubscrintlons to thubuibl-
Ing the impression went niiroad In the com-
munlty that when the ni-ochtlon was in its
owi ) bulldingiio money would bo Lceded for
its support other than what would be derived
from membership foes. This was unfor-
tuiute , for noissot'latioa in the country Is
suit-supporting , the community In every case
famishing a portion of the amount needed for
rniminguxpcnses. This Is due to the fact
that the membership fee is a nominal one , the
association glvlngmoro than It receives. On
acoountof the erroneous impression above re
ferred to , the board 01 directors of tbo asso-
cintlon felt ix'luctant to go buforc tlio coia-
niutilty Iminaliatcly up i cuturing the buildIng -
Ing and ask for contributions to cur
rent expenses. The result was that the
only source of revenue for the past
two years has been the membership lees ,
whieh have not been sulllcieat to meet the
necessary expenses. At the beginning of the
last iiscMl year , M.iy 1 , iss . It wts estimated
that at least f."itKW ( above nil that could possi
bly bo cxpcctou from membership fees would
bo needed for thcycar ending May 1 , Iblio.
Vvt reasons which space forbids us to give in
detail , the board of directors failed to call
Uwn | tbo community for this amount , the
result being that the expenses of the year ex
ceeded the ineomo about S'l.OOO. which no-
counts for the second half of the indebted
ness.
ness.Tho expanses for the r/rcsont llsc.d year ,
ending.May 1 , 1S91 , will exceed the Income

to b" raised.
It Is claimed that the members of the asso
ciation should themselves my off the Indebt
edness , In the lirjt place tno association ,
with tbo co-operation of the community , un
dertook to erect the building , and presented
and dedicated It for the use of tbo voung men ,
simply asking from them n feu of $10 pur
year , -vvitn th'o payment of which their finan
cial responsibility ends. In the second place-
tbu mnjority of the members are young men
of limited moans , who are attracted to the
association by the advantages \rlilch It offers ,
and whoso anility beyond their membership
fco is not great. It Is only just to state , in
this connection , thstt since October ] , liSS ,
I'-MTSof tbe money expended bus come from
the youiiK ini'ii nloiio , while in the same time
tlio commuiilty nt larpn has eoiilrlbutcd il- $
Alto , that in the present canvass tbo young
men hnvo given. tl.40\lover \ and above their
fees , to assist in the piymeiit of the Indebted
ness. The fact tint the community has
given so little is due , probably ,
not so much to a luck of Interest
in tlM-Ir part as to the failure of tbo associa
tion to cull upon the iu , ItU. therefore , under
the necessity of doiuc with in a few weeks
what should hnvo been done during the two
yo.irs p.ist. The association owes an apology
to the community for not having called upon
thorn before , and not for wiling upon them
no\v.
nov.The membership of the association at pres
ent is about 550 , The falling off slneo Jan
uary I , when It was | , iu , is duo largely to
two causes. First , removal of members , at
least iOJ of the BO missing ones having loft
tlfo city. .Second , to expirations during the
sprin ; ; and summer month which have not
been followed up by a personal request for
ivno\v.d , owing to the fact that tlio associa
tion liau been unable to secure a membership
sei'ivtnry until recently. There is no ques
tion hutth.it , with tlio burden removed Irani
tlio institution. It will bo possible to bring
the membershipniraln to 1,000 , or even more.
It is uskcilVliiit became of the largo
rentals received from the liVdt lloor of the
building ; " The larger part of this , viz :
about three-fourths of tho$3,200 per year , ib

The decline from July I to August 1 is from

of the drought has culminated. Iowa and

Brain to Tnu Bcis. ] Tlio announcement in
the morning pa ] > crs that the president had
signed the original package bill created a
panic among the agencies In DCS Molacs , nnd
before noon every one was closed , with crape
on the doors of many. A number of agents
received orders to at oncoreshlp to the eric-
inal owners any goods left In stock , and
many of t.ho rooms were speedily
emptied. ICiivaniiRh & Johnson , how
ever , continued to do business until
theirstockof about a thousand dollars worth
was sei/.edby a constable nnd a guard placed
ever it. The owners for which they were
agents telegraphed , them to light the case in
the courts and they would stuud the expense ,
nnd n test case will ho made and pushed to
the higher couits as soon as possible. The
state temperance alliance Issued an address
In which they say that no legislation on ttio
part of the state is necessary to nuke it ef
fective. Tbe act not only removes the hind
rance occasioned by tholato decision of the
supreme court , but withdraws the federal
protection from Imported and Interstate shi p-
incuts which has heretofore made the strict
enforcement of the law impossible.

Cut-Off island , or No Maa'sLand , an Island
in the Missouri river that has been thrown
into tlio Jurisdiction of Pottaw.ittmnlo county
by a change In Iho current of the river , is a
most undesirable addition to thostatoof Iowa
and the city of Council 13lutTs. Although the
county authorities have attempted to throw
some sort of protection around the people
who nro trylns : to live thcro in the shape of
civil government , it Is practically without any
government at nil. This Is a very serious sil-
nation for the bettor clement of its people , for
the island is very naturally the rendezvous
lorsoruo oitne most , lawless ciuiractors to uo
found In tbo country ,
"Congress will have to plnco the Island un
der the jurisdiction of tlio Nebraska authori
ties by a special act taking it from Iowa and
annexing It to Nebraska " said
, a county oftl-
cial yesterday. "Ills too far from Council
Dluffsto bring ; It under the police regulations
of the city , hut Is close enough to Omaha for
that purpose. Thcro are elements of discord
there liable to make trouble outsldo of tbo
lawless classes that make it their haunts.
The squatters have taken possession of a portion
tion of the lands , and they nro not going to
relinquish their claims without n struggle.
Each side is strong in numbers and determi
nation , nnd from what I know personally of
the situation I um confident that there is n
bloody strife imminent. The deputy sheriff
that Jimniio O'Xeil ' has placed there to keep
the peace docs not appear to bo a very exem
plary ofllccr or 11 competent guardian of tbo
peace. Ho lias been arrested twice in the
last weolcon warrants issued from Burnett's '
conrt charging him with trespass and assault
and battery , and will bo tried on both
charges. Unless some sort of local govern-
mentis organ bed thcro and the lawless elo-
meiit repressed , I am confident It will bo the
scene of a bloody tragedy. "

The new tramp law Is a curiosity. It pro
vides that any male person over sixteen years
of ago , who is physically able to work , and
who Is wandering about with no visible
calling or business to maintain himself , and
unable to show reason nblo efforts and in good
faith to secure employment , shall be deemed
a tramp.
Any ono thus convicted is to be punished
by imprisonment in the county Jail at hard
labor for the term of ten days , or solitary
confinement for llvo days.
If , la addition to being a tramp , a person Is
found to bo carrying any wcnpui oi1 carrying
on overload of beer , or being in any way dis
orderly , tbo term is to ho stretched tothiity
days nt hard labor , or ten days solitary con
finement.
"When two or moro trumps nro found to
gether they nro to ho tried Jointly and fees
allowed as though for only ono caso. This la
a blow at the fee bills which have in innny
places afforded a nice revenueto Justices und
olllccrs. The fees in tramp cases are cut
down to not moro than PJ for the Justice nud
not more thnu $1.50 and niilciujc for the
ofllccr.
The sheriffs are also touched up a little.
The now law forbids them allowing tramps
In Jail to have any tobncco , Intoxicating
liquors , sporting or illustrated papers , caids
or any article of amusement. A shcrllt who
violates this Is liable to a fine of from $25 to
$100.
If any ono Joins In any sort of a combina
tion to evadotho now law , and secure larger
fees than nro Intended by its provisions , ho is
liable to a line of $100.
If a tramp refuses to work he Is to put on
bread and water. '
The Jailor Is to bo allowed nothing for hcc | > -
mgtransient tramps. His board bill will
only bo paid for such tramps as are duly con
victed and committed.
It puzzles some of tlio sheriffs to know
what to do about the null-tobacco clause. In
theBimia Jail ns the tramp there may bo a
fellow charged with stealing , and who Is al
lowed to buy for himself a little tobacco. Can
the Jailer keep an eye on him all the tlmo to
keep him from giving the tramp a chow I
Ono quid slipped into the tramp's mouth
mukes Mr. Sheriff liable to pay 100. The
tramp must not bo allowed to glance at any
illustrated paper , and as so many of the dai
lies give mom space to pictures than to news ,
their circulation amour Irump Inmates is to
bo sadly curtailed.
The now law was framed nnd passed to
satisfy the clamor of Iho people who have
grown weary of the heavy fco bills of the
ofllcorsnnd tbo continued nuisance of swarm
ing tramps. The sufferers demanded some
relief und the legislators have tried to give
them nil they wanted hi the way of law.
In thucity tliotiMtnps are handled under n
city orJIiiuncu.
The new law will make but little change in
matters within the corporation , but in the
towns mid throughout tuo country , it will
bring aboutquHou change.

Since t.ho removal of all the obstructions
that have been placed in the \vay of the con
tractor who was the lowest bidder on the
? H)0 ) ( ) ( ) worth of brick pavement ordered by
tlio city there has been a great deal of talk
nbout the low price nt which the work was
contracted. "U'hllc the city and the property
owners have been receiving ocongratulntlons
upon the very favorable terms of the con
tract , the alleged friends of Mr. Moore nro
talking very seriously about the financial
loss the fulfillment of the contract will entail
upon him. Said one of them yesterday : "The
city Is going to Imvo some of the cheapest
paving over laid in the west , but it Is going
10 oo nun in , a ruinous eoii. . to mo contractor.
Ho cannot make a dollar under the most
favorable conditions , and if ho Is crowded n
little by tbo brick men ho will come out a
heavy loser. Let mo give you a few Jlgures ,
The contract , price isl.rtv : ! siiimro yard ; it
will require between ninety and one hundred
brick to lay a yard ; ho can't get enough brick
that will pass Inspection to p.ivo ono block
from the local manufacturers for less than $ 'J
a thousand , and It will co-it him from $ 'J,50 to
410 for every thousand ho gets from outsldo
makers delivered ut the depots , nnd it will
cost another nOuqnts a thousand to get Uiem
on the work ; the preparation of llio street
and the sand will cost ten cents a yar.l more ,
making at least M. to iier square yard for the
material , leaving him only M cents a yard for
putting it down. The wages of the pavers
will amount to nioro than that , and where
will his profits coino In } "
"I have no anxiety , nnd neither have my
bondsmen or my friends , " said Contractor
Mourn. "Tho boll-ltude for my welfare
comes from tbo other bidders who failed
to get the work. I Imvo been the low
est bidder three different times for
this work , nnd 1 certainly have had
ample lime to think the matter over. I may
perhaps ( latter myscll by expressing the con
viction that I know pretty nearly what I am
doing , and did not b.ise any of mv bids upon
rash pucs ? work. I have done a good deil : of
brick paving in the alleys of the city In the
last two years , .some of It , it Is true , at a
slightly higher llgnro than 1 asked for this ,
but I can nortnhily pave two inilo } of wide
streets chc.iper than I could a few blocks of
narrow alloys. It Is true that tboro is not
biiclteiifi'isrh ' Iu Council HlulTH to nave one
half of the streets ordered paid , and if I h'ld
to dcpsinl upon the local supply altogether I
might gel into a piclclo , but there is plenty of
brick in the rountrv thit : will meet the ap
proval of any Inspectors the vity miy appoint.
If tlio council would grant an extension of
the time in which to eomloto | the work I
can assure them that there will lie
a suitable plant for making paving
brick In oneratlou hero by no.xt ,
spring that will boliirgeenough to supply the
demand for all the paving that will likely bo
done this year nnd In thu future. lut ! if there
Is no extension given you can assure tbo pub
lic that I will fulfill my contract to the letter ,
and whether Hose or make money out of it is
nobody's business , but Is exclusively my own
affair and my bondsmen's If they are satis
fied and I am , no ono else has nay right to
kick because the paving is being done 5U per
cent cheaper than it was over done before or
any other contractor would agree to do It.
Just say that I w.111 comply with all the con
ditions of my contract and ask the kickers to
take n rest until I do hoinethlng they don't
like , or pass nrouiid the hat for a collection to
meet my losses. " '
