Timely Suggestions in the Interest of

"I am glad to learn that the people of this
city nre beginning to agitate the qacstion of
patronizing tholr homo Industries , " said a
prominent mnu yesterday who Is heavily
Interested In both Omaha ami Council Bluffs
real estate. "Ono thlnR wo noocl Is to secure
tlio location of manufacturing enterprises
hero , and the main question wo nro nit inter
ested In Is hmv to Ucop up the Interest of the
citizens In some organization similar in pur-
pone to the ono effected in the Masonlo
temple last Thursday ovenlnp ; . I have n
schema which I think would ( ill the bill
better than anything yet proposed , ami 1
would lllco to lay It before the public through
the columns of TIIK UBU.
"My plan would bo to form a stock com
pany aim Incorporate It under the state laws
wltn Justus largo a capital stock as could
possibly bo secured. Then when nny manu
facturing enterprise Is heard of that wants to
rclocato , appoint n committee to confer with
Its managers and lay before them a proposi
tion something lllco this ; Instead of offering
them a bonus , agree to tulio a certain amount
of stock In the enterprise In the name of the
citizens' organization , with the understand
ing that the stock ma ; bo bought out by tho.
manufacturers at any tlma at Its par value ,
together with ft per cant Interest , and that
while the association holds tbo stock it Is to
receive Ms share of the profits like nny other
stockholder.
"This plan , I think , would meet with the
approval of any straightforward concern ,
and wo wouldn't want to pay money to got
any other kind located In the city. At the
same tltno it would gtvo the members of the
association something In return for the money
that tlicy might expend In the way of build
ing up the city's Interests , which Is the only
successful way of kcapine them interested In
the association. Patriotism is nil very wall
so far as it goes , but after the tlrst llu < h of
enthusiasm has passed mon who loolt at
things in n business Ilko way want to see
some direct results from their off or is. "
This plan has been adopted oy the Union
Loan and Improvement company , of which
, lohn W. Paul is a member , and will bo tried
as an experiment in building up the vacant
territory in the northwestern part of the
city. _

After lumi Con\cntlon .
A meeting of citizens was hold in the
Board of Trade rooms last evening In an
cordanco with n call issuou yesterday by
Chairman S. B. Wadsworth of tbo demo
cratic county central committee. Nothing
had been said of tbo meeting until during
the afternoon , and it was consequently not
very well advertised. There were about
twenty-flvo present , nil of whom but ono
were democrats , notwithstanding the fact
that the call bid been Issued to republicans
and democrats ulllco.
Lucius Wells presided and S. B. Wads
worth acted as socrotnry.V. . II. M. Pusov
stutod tbo object of the meeting. Ho said
there were to bo two conventions hold by
tno democrats of Iowa this ye.tr and there
was uo reason why Council Bluffs should
not have ono of them , and thus bring any
whom from 1,500 to 2,000 strangers to tbo
city to partaito of her hospitality and other
drlnkablos. Representative vV , 11. Ware ,
who was present , was called upon to state
what ho thought of the chances of Council
Bluffs for securing the convention. Uo
stated that ho was botislled that Council
Blurts could secure the tint convention ,
which was to bo held in May for the purpose
of nominating delegates to the national con
vention , as there was but little competition.
The second convention , which Is to bo held In
August to no ml n a to electors and candidates
for the state officers , however , would bo
vastly more important and would also take
more of an effort to capture , as Das Momcs
and Davenport were already in the ring , with
a probability that other cities would enter the
race In the course of the next few days. *
Hemarks were mudo by a numbcrof those
present , it being tbo almost unanimous opin
ion that Council Bluffs should not waste
much tltno on tbo llrst convention , but put
in her best licks to got the second. On
motion of Mr. Pusoy , It was lluai'.y decided
to appoint Senator Urouowcg , and Hopre-
Bontillves Ware and Urlccs a committee to
confer with the democratic state committee
and make a bid. for the second convention ,
with the understanding that If It proved c
forlorn hope , an effort should bo made to
induce them to hold the tlrst ono in Council
Dluffa. A committee consisting of W. II. M.
Pusoy , T. E. Casady and Ueorgo A. Holmes
was appointed to circulate a subscription list
in tbo city for tbo purpose of raising the
necessary guarantee fund , which will
amount to about $300 , Tlio meeting then
adjourned until Wednesday night , whoi
another will bo held to hoar the report of the
latter committee.

hiii that did not belong to him. ' 'I ob-

no otbor money and received no other money
from Mrs. Pollard or any other person. I

Simitar letters bavo bc9iHscnt to the mayor
of each of the principal cities , and It Is evi
dent that an organized effort will bo made to
effect tbo changes proposed.
Ono of the.se changosntias reference to tbo
appointment of the clty-juuroUal , Under the
present law the mayor , is autborlzod'to ap
point a city inariiiulTn , all towns having a
population of not loss wan 23,300 , according
to the census of 18bO , 'hiding ' him ox-ofllclo
chief of pollco nnd glvlus him alt the powers
now hold by both marfjial and cblof. The
ntiaugo proposed will $ tdko out the clause
limiting the power qr'lhe mayor to cities
having any particular population , and will In
affect do away with th&'ofdce ot city marshal
entirely. ni t
Drafts of bills were also presented provid
ing that cities of iho firjtjcluss or those of
tbo second class bavlnfru population of 7,000
or over may levy a tax of not to exceed 3
mills on tbe dollar to maintain nro protection ,
and a similar Ux to light the streets , in addi
tion to tbo maximum amount now allowed by
statute. No fund is now provided for cither
of these purposes , tbo pollco fund being largo
onouch , under the peculiar manner of oa-
forcing the prohibitory law , to pay all the ex
penses of the lira and light departments. The
change Is proposed in vlow of the possibility
of a rhango la the prohibitory law by which
a part of the revenues from the saloons shall
bo turned into th ? coffers of the school fund ,
tbus creating a deficiency in the other de
partments. _

have u dizzy , snlmmlng sensation , like vor-

land , Hhopard and Mansfield , the catarrh had
completely undermined my constitution.
They removed the polypus without paining

and us a result I am Ilko a new man. I sleep
