NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS ,
flitch Occurs in the Settlement of the Union
Pacific's Delinquent Taxes.
COUNCIL'S ' ACTION WAS RATHER VAGUE ,
Decide o r.rt the Matter
JUeHt TIM the Coiinullnien De
termine What They llcally
Want In the Case.
The quesllonof the reduction of the Union
Pacific taxes was laid before Iho county
supervisors yesterday morning in accord
ance with tu.0 programme adopted Friday.
Some of the supervisors were of the
opinion that the matter had been rushed
through the city council with undue haste.
They claimed that the resolutions that were
adopted by the council were faulty from the
fact that they did not specify for what years
the laxcs were lo bo reduced , and that there
fore there was a loophole through which the
company might crawl when It came to the
payment of subsequent tuxes.
County Auditor IlendricK staled lhat from
the wording of Iho resolutions ho did not
know what chunges he would be expected to
make on his books ,
At all events , the supervisors thought that
no harm could result from allowing the mat
ter lo roil for a lime , and Iho question was
accordingly referred back to the council for
a moro specific statement of what they ex
pected the company to do. As the board of
supervisors have no oilier mcollng until next
September the action of the board ties up the
tax question until that time , unless u specia
meeting is called. w-'HSB
The supervisors state that they have no
desire lo interfere with Iho council if it
wants to raise the assessment , to lower it or
throiv It away entirely. But they Ihought
that the resolution as passed by tno council
was so Indefinite that the board could not
tell } ust what was intended.
, The following is a copy of ono of Iho reiio-
lullons :

J. W. LllUs has bean doing the elegant in
this city for some time past. Ho has been
stopping at the different hotels of Ihe clly ,
but in every instance ho has gene off without
settling his bills. Ho is now in Jail in Omaha ,
charged with playing the sumo sort of n gnmo
on that side of the river. Since his arrest
has boon made known the different hotel
men have been comparing notes , and for the
first lima it has been found out In what a
wholesale style ho played his game. When
the Ogdou house was under the management
of W. II. Dooley , Mr. Lillis spent something
ever a week there , nnd when ho loft there
was a bill of & < S against him on the
books of Iho hostelry. When the Ogden -
den changed hands and G. W. Whitney loolj
the management Lillis came back , and , as lie
was not known , succeeded In running up n
bill of S13.M ) . Ho also ran cjulto a bill at the
Gordon and Pacific , and a few days ago ho
registered at the Grand nnd stopped there
for twenty-four hours before his peculiarity
of disposition was learned and ho was uncere
moniously llred out.
Lillis professed to have been n newspaper
man , but of late he has boon in the insurance
business. On the side ha represented him
self as the agent of the Colfnx mineral water
company , and he effected a sale of a car load
of the diluted iron and magnesia with George
Kudlo. The goods have never been delivered ,
however. It is expcclod that Lillis will bo
brought to this slue of the river for a hearing
on some of the chruges that have been pre
ferred against him by the Council Bluffs
hotel keepers.

to write out the marriage certificate
when ho broadly hinted tit the propriety
of u fee.
"O that's all right , " said the now hus

hand with n grand air.
The judge cast a stealthy glance at the
greenback and found , to Ills horror , that
it , denomination was $1.
' This ain't enough ! " exclaimed ho ,
"unless you plank downl moro I won't

"You can't hlulT mo , " returned the

CitiCAdo , Juno 0. The Indications nro that
the light over the lake and rail trafllo will
not entirely cease on the order of the Trunk
Line association to restore on that date. The
charge in made that two or three lines have
been in.iklng contracts for freight through
Juno and July at lower figures. As far as
ran be learned the ehargo is well founded ,
and It may prevent an ad vance In lake and
rail rates later In ttio season. It is held that
nobody would bo benefited by a restoration
of rates after the bulk of the lr..fllo has bosn
secured by two or thrao lines under contracts
which violate the very sense of the agree-
ment.
In the meantime west bound rates from the
Atlantic seaboard have become so demoral
ized on account of the attitude of the Can
adian Paciilc and ttio retaliatory actions of
the Gr.ind Trunk and National Dispatch
that it will probably take a month If not all
summer to pet back to the former basis. 'J'ho
conditions arc entirely different cast of Chicago
cage where the careful and apparently unan
imous maintenance of freight rates shows
that the strict orders issued by the presidents
of the roads to their traffic managers immed
iately after the grand Jury Investigation last
winter , are still in force. The Cnicago it
Alton , however , has Just taken a stop
that may result in chamiing the situation
to some extent. The Wisconsin roads have
persisted In making the same rates from Mil
waukee to the Texas points as Irom Chicago ,
and now tbo Alton has announced Its Inten
tion of applying IhoCnicago rules from Mich
igan points , thereby giving its patrons in
that state as good terms as the shippers in
Wisconsin. If the Milwaukee lines under
take to punish the Alton for this action a
serious disturbance of rates may ensue , but
it is probable tint they will avoid trouble by
ignoring the reduction.
AOKI-II : ) TO itr.sToiii : HATES.
At a meeting of the managers of the east
bound lines held nt the olllco of the Central
Tralllc association in this r.lly It was agreed
to restore tr.itlio rates from Peorhi east
ward to the basis of HV.j cents
to New York on high wines and
articles classified therewith , to take effect
Juno 15. It was also nsrojd by all lines to
maintain that basis in the future , without
diminution or concession in any manner at
iff ? time.

The Illinois Central is not satisfied with
Chairman Finley's ruling , by which a fine
was imposed on "that ? company for failure
to advance passenger rates from St. Louis to
Chicago May 17 , as ordered , and has appealed
to arbitration. It contends that it was Justi
fied In failing to advance rates , as the Chicago
cage & Alton had announced that , it would re
fuse to do so , and it wpald have been useless
to advance the rules and lower them again on
Iho same day. The Illinois Central people

Art has tnnao irroat advances in America
during the present century. Previous to that
time the progress of the line arts was neces
sarily slow , owing to ttie fact that those arts
which had practical reference to the essential
comforts of life naturally look Iho precedence
of pursuits which reijuiro leisure , longstndy ,
and a wealthy and cultivated class to furnish
patrons for the successful artist.
Prominent among the few great pioneer
artists who flourished before the dawn of this
century stand the names of Benjamin West ,
Charles Wilson Pealo and Colonel John
Trumbull , In 17D2 West was elected second
president of the English Ko.rnl Academy of
Fine Arts , nn honor to this day unique In the
history of American art.
Pealo was u. vorsntllo yonius whoso skill as
a portrait painter attracted patrons from
Canada and the West Indies.
John Trumbull , the famous old revolution
ary oftlcor , took up tha paint brush and palette -
otto when ho found-his soldierly occupation
gone , and to Iho laurels won in Iho arts of
war ho added tho. moro lasting honors at
tained in the arts of peace. The "Sortio from
Gibraltar" is Justly , ranked as the best pro
duction of his pencil , and would forever se
cure to the author , luid ho done nothing else ,
it rank with the grimiest masters of Jtho art.
Trumbull executed , Vhfi four splendid histori
cal paintings now aitprnlug the rotunda of
the capllol at Washington , which elicited
from ThacKoray , surey ) a sufllciontly fastid
ious critic , a highly eulogistic opinion upon
the old hero's merit , as an artist.
Chester Hardin,1 ) Washington , Allston ,
Gllbirt Stuart null , Charles Fraser , the Immediate
'
mediate successors' of the pioneers whom wo
have Just montioiii'd ; were inthoiouith of
their fnmo In the Ifrst quarter of this cen
tury. Allston and1 Urasor painted several
famous pictures , ' % nch ns "Bolshnzzar'.s
Feast" and -Tho Dead May Hovlvo , " but
Stuart never forsooui'tho moro lucrative do
main of portniiturej. Ho had no lack of sit
ters , and muiibcrufUnmoni ; his patrons such
men as Wirt , Clay,1 Webster , Cainoun and
Jackson ,
Fame was achieved by n few of our plou-
per artists , wealth was attained by none ,
( iilbert Stuurt offered his famous portrait of
Washington to the state of Massachusetts
for Sl.lJIM ) , which the legislature refused as
exorbitant. These enirustcd with our na
tional government passed by this opportun
ity of doing honor to themselves during the
life of u man u horn thuy could not hanor.aml
the only faithful portrait of the "Father of
his country" was left neglected In the paint
er's studio until years afterwards the Uouon
Athenaeum purchased it of his widow.
Though urt llfo at this pcrloa of our his
tory was by no means n "primrose path of
dalliance. " far from a lucrative profession ,
still Its voturl s bore up bravely under all
dlftlculllCi with true martyr spirit in order
that art might find hero "u local habitation
and a naino , " ami the way bo made smoother
for their successors.
About 18'iT > American artists saw the
breaking of a brighter day. Thomas C'uto
founded what may bo called the American
school of landscape painting , a department
which has been cultivated by unlive artists
moro universally and successfully than any
other. Colo's productions nro characterized
by n thoughtful morality and tendency to
allegory. The series of "Tho Course of Em
pire" and "Tho Voyage of Llfu , " nro his
most elaborate productions.
Cole and his distinguished contomporarlos ,
Doughty , Dunint , Inman , Fisher , Item-
brnndt , Pealo , Weir and Huntlngton , by
their excellent work caused American nr-
lists to bo respected abroad , and produced a
demand for their works nt home.
Slnco the middle of the contur.v our paint
ers , following the example of the French
nrtlsls , have dovoled most of their nttenllon
to landscape and genre , and their efforts
have In a measure reflected the Influence of
the French schools. Vrench paintings pre
dominate In the private collections of the
country. Compared with the Influence of
the French school thai of the GermanItalian
and oilier .schools Is almost Inappreciable.
So much have French tvpes of form , color
and design prodomlnaicd In the works of
American nrtisls that such ndvr.ncud think
ers In the realm of art as Prof. French of
the Chicago art Institute and Prof , l/iurlu
Wallace , director of the Omaha Collegi
of Kino Arts , have raised hand ant
voice In warning Unit if this sorvllo
Imitation and dependence of native homo
artists upon ICuropcan teachers and models
continue many more years , u distinctly na
tional school of native artists who p.'iint
American types and depict American land-
scapi'.s , will bo "tho baseless fabrics of a
dream,1' rather limn a splendid tvallly.
America Is us abundantly iiulu to produce'a
native sihool of artisU who will stand be
fore the world "sul generis , " its she Is to pro
duce a literature which Is distinctly Amer
ican.
"The works of our Church and Blorstndt ,
who hold the foremost place In the foremost
rank of the world's landscape painters , and
the marine productions ot B. Mornn ,
Do Haas , Uasoltlno and Dlx , are by compe
tent cuiinolssours considered fully equal to
Iho best work donn by foreign mastor.s. Portraiture
traiture has boon pursued with llatloring suc
cess by Klllotl , W. Hunt , Ames and Stagg.
J. If. Board and W. H. Heard , Butler , P
Mornn , Hays and Illnckloy are world
famous ns painters of animals. In sculpture
Greonough , Powers , Hogcrs nnd Story nro
mimes of which every American Is proud.
American etchings and maciulno nnd news
paper illustrations are by the common con
sensus of art critics the llnest in the world.
Our Abbey is Juslly called 'Tho Prince
of Illustrators. "
Previous to IKO.'i American art students
were compelled to go abroad to pursue their
studies. In that year Prof. S. F. B. Morse
founded two "academies" in Philadelphia ,
the National Academy of Design nnd the
Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. They
cosl over ono million dollars , nnd tholr col
lections contain the finest paintings of Ben
jamin West , Allston , Stuart and others.
Both are nourishing and useful institutions ,
affording all requisite facilities for the as
sistance of ttio intelligent student , and
providing for the annual display and salu of
the productions of our artists , anil .serving by
their very existence to lostcr and keep alive
an interest in art.
Art in this country received its greate.st
impetus in 1670. Sinca the centennial it hns
made greater progress than in all the pre
ceding years. The pockets of the wealthy
have been opening slowly , but surely to fos
ter its growth. Boston , New York , 1'hiln-
dolphlu , Baltimore , Chicago , St. Paul and
Omaha are in the van in this encouraging
movement. Visitors from till parts of the
country express great .surprise at. the rapid
strides Omaha has made within the past in
population , commerce and wealth , but their
surprise flowers into admiration when they
view the remarkable advance it has mudo in
art matters.
The centennial opened Hon. G. W. Linin-
ijor's eyes to the great possibilities of art ns
an educator and refiner. Ho felt that an art
gallery would confer a greater benefit upon
the citizens than mere Uo.ik education , by
giving a refinement to which they would
otherwise bo strangers. vVhilst traveling
on ttio continent in 1878 nnd 18711 ho began
collecting works of art which formed
the nuceles of his splendid gallery ,
which Is today the pride of Oinahn. More
than any other man ho gave impulse and
direction to art in this city , and his share in
the influences whicn have innilo the fine arts
whicti are among us now , remains ono of the
noblest and most enduring Kind
In 18S ( ! the lir t art exhibit over seen in
Omaha was held In'a building which stood on
the site of the Grand opera house. Messrs.
G. W. Lininger. J. N. Putricu , G. C. Barton
nnd Herman Kountzo were the spirits , and
made il a success botli financially ur.d
artistically. The lollowing spring the West
ern Art association was established through
the efforts of these gentlemen. Their object
was to gor , the artists in Nebraska , Iowa and
surrounding states banded together for bone-
licinl , protective and social ends and to create
si taste and enthusiasm among the people lor
high urt. At the llrst meeting called in
April , IbSli , sixty members responded. At
present the books show u member
ship of HOO , scattered over lour
states , and ' funds to the amount
of $1,000 In the treasury. Besides this the
association owns 17,1 splendid oil paintings ,
presented by members , which in the near injure -
jure will form the nucleus of a gallery.
The association has two of its proteges , Mr.
J. G. Borulum and wifo. studying in Paris.
Mr. Borirlum is but twenty-four years of age ,
and is nn artist of great promise. Hecent
cable dispatches state that ho has two pic
tures and ono plcco of sculpture in this
year's ' salon. To those acquainted with the
stringent rules which govern the entrance of
artists into the salon , this is unequivocal
proof of the excellence of his work.
1'lie association meets every second Tues
day evening at the Lininger art gallery. G.
\V. Lininger is president , C. S. Klgutter and
L. B. Bourgeois first and second vice presi
dents respectively. 11. A , Smith , treasurer ,
and.Mrs. 1 . C. Brownleo , secretary.
The Omaha college of line arts Is ttio mag
nificent outgrowth of the association. At
present thora are sixty-seven students in at
tendance ut its elegant ( inarters in Tun B 1:1 : :
building. If the directors' plans do not
"gang agloo" the now structure to bo erected
on the site donated by John A. Creightoii
will bo ready lor the fall term. As soon as
the school moves into its new quarters a
court.o of public art lectures will bo inaugu
rated. Men who stand at the head of the
profession will bo invited to participate. The
college Is essentially a wo.itorn institution ,
and tno course of instruction as thorough as
can bo found in the country , nnd the equip
ments and accommodations for teaching un
excelled. The course of Instruction embraces
drawing , architecture , Mill life , painting in
all its brunches , decoration , modeling In clay
and sculpture. It luu the hearty and sub-
.stautinl support of the best cltl/iens of tbo
stale , and though lately planted In ournudsl ,
has done much to advance the cause of art In
Omaha.
Th'i director of the school Is the eminent
artist , Mr. J , Laurie Wallace , president of
the Chicago Society of Artists and ono of the
best known painters in the country. Ho Is a
graduate of the oldest and greatest school In
till ) country. Iho Philadelphia academy of
line arts. When ho left his alma mater ha
was teacher of the life class , n distinguished
honor for any nrtlsl , but especially for ono RO
young , uud ttio profesior has Just turned
twenty-eight. Mr. Wallace's forte Is oil
portrait painting , and hU success Is fully
attested by the largo number of bis canvases
hanging in tbo homes of Chicago's million
aires. Ills portrait of Mr. Thomas Lord of
Lord , Owen .t Co. is in his best vein , and ,
besides being a .striking resemblance , ox-
hlblts the strength in handling and p-'rfoe-
lion In lechniquo which are Iho artist's
strong feature- , .
Prof. Wallace thinks Hint there is n bril-
llani future for art In tills country and es
pecially rl.'fht hero In Omaha. The art stu
dent ho finds enthusiastic , pattcnl and will
ing lo loiirn and correct their faults. Bui lo
his thinking It it > wrong for 10,000 American
KtmliinU to expatriate Ihemsolves for a num
ber of yo.irs lo acquire un urt which thuy
could learn Just us well at home. They learn
foreign methods and come homo and try to
engraft ilium upon the niillvo slock ihoreby
vitiating am' undanguring future art
in their own hind. Felix Ueciamy , the French
minister of line arts , after Inspecting llio urt
schools In this country In 1870 , pronounced
them the best In the world. Omaha has sev
eral line collections of pamlings.
The Ltnlngcr gallery being open lo a irrato-
ful public. U too well Known nnd highly ap
preciated to need moro than a passing niLMi-

plecosof Culdo-lioni , Salvutor Uosa , Uem-
brnndl , Mukoo.ski ami otliurs , and huve ut
tered benlsons on the head of him ivho has
utTorded them such elevating and cultured
cnjoymuit.
Messrs. J. X. H. Patrick. G. C.
Barton , H. ICountzn. A. Hospu and
many others have many gems of
art In their collections , iho w or its

Among the local artists , who nro doing
work that gives great protnuo for the future
are , A. Hothery , Miss Frances Mumnugh ,
Snowden , nnd In china decornlion Miss But-
tcrlleld Is unrivaled In the west. I
The architectural style of our public build
