NEWS FROM COUNCIL -BLUFFS
Attention Directed to the Way in Which the
Motor Company Avoids Paying Taxes.
TAXPAYERS WHO HAVE BEEN BUNCOED
C'ltlrcin I'nv .Money for .Street linprovciiirnt
Which Should Itiirn Keen AMCtsed to
the Company Action of the City
Council Commented On ,
A rather Interesting thing In connection
with the f'rullii ( ? on Avetiuu A hns Just come
to light through the agitation thnt Is now
being made over the tit'Klcct of the motor
company to Hvo up to Its obligations ami the
fullurooftho city olllolals to bring It to
terms with u snap. The fnot tliat the motor
coinnuy | ) iliiup ( the illrt from the roadway
at the slilo of Its tracks on Avenue A for the
ptirpo.su of raising the tracks approximately
to the grade which would In all probability
bo established on that avenue some time In
the future was mentioned lu Tun BIH : a day
or two ago , and the fact was also stated that
the city had subsequently brought in dirt
from a dlstanc-o and 11 lied up the holes thus
made , and charged up the expense , which
was about 1.000 , to the adjacent property
owners in the shape of special taxes.
There arc a great many citizens who never
take the trouble to llnd out whether their
assessments are legal or not , and all of the
Aventio A residents who answered that de
scription stepped up to the rack and paid
their assessments without a murmur. There
were a few , however , who knew that the
tax was illegal , and they quietly , but abso
lutely , refused to make tin * payments. An
examination of the records discloses the fact
that the taxes of all these kickers are
now marked "canceled , " although the
properly owners hi question deny that
they ever paid a cent. The question
now waiting an answer Is : Who paid
the taxes ! Was It the motor company or
tin1 council ! At all events there are suspi
cions , founded on evidence of a more or less
circumstantial character , that if by the
company the payment was at least made
with the knowledge and collusion of the city
council. As soon as this fact becomes gen
erally known a number of suits may bo
looked for from the property owners , who
came up and paid their taxes like little men ,
to recover from the city the amounts which
they paid.
\Vlmt U'llt the Council Do ?
A petition was started out on Its rounds
among the business men of Council Ulufl's
yesterday , asking the mayor and city council
to rescind the ordinance , passed In ISMi , giv
ing the motor company a tax of 1- mills and
a franchise to operate a railway in the
streets. The object of this move is to
make it impossible for the company
to stand on the rights It has already been
granted , uKin the plea that the city gorcni-
ineut still stands by it. The petition rec.ites
Hint the company still owes the citizens over
) ,000 , and the city about a like sum for
( laving , for which it was bound , by the terms
of its charter to pay , and that it re/uses to
settle ; that the company never did any
thing except assign its franchise
to a foreign corporation , which Is
dully taking largo sums of money from
Council HlulTs to another state. It then de
mands that the ordinance by which the
1'-111 ill tax was levied , and also the ordinance
of 18M ) by which the franchise was granted ,
bo rescinded. The statement has been made
openly by the superintendent of the motor
company that no action will bo taken by the
city council that will bo unfriendly to the
company , and it is thought that this petition
will have the efl'eet of compelling the mem
bers of the council to show for whom they
are working.
They Waited Two Years.
The Council Bluffs and Omaha Bridge
company flled Its answer yesterday to the
suit which was commenced in 1S91 by the
city to recover about S. > ,000 for paving stn.'et
intersections. This is thu tlrst time the
company has shown any life in this case ,
which the city ofltclals have allowed to slip
along for two years. Tliu case is set for a
hearing at the term of the superior court ,
which will commence tomorrow. The
answer Is signed by George F.
Wright , nnd in it he alleges that
there Is no statute authorizing the
plaintiff to bring the action ; that the
streets mentioned in the first count had
been already paved before the company's
tracks had been laid , and that they had
never been repaved since ; and that the
Council Bluffs & Omaha Bridge company de
nies over having had anything to do with
laying the tracks , but that they wore laid by
the Council Bluffs I { all way company , whoso
motive power consisted of half a dozen
spavined mules , in the days when paving and
grading were unknown and unthought of in
Council Bluffs. This company Is now said
to bo Insolvent , and , if so , the citizens who
have been relying upon the company to pay
its share of the city special taxes will bo
very much disappointed ,
\ \ 'iulvorth Tulka.
"Some ono has made the exceedingly
bright remark that we must not try to bring
the motor company to terms for fear of keep
ing eastern capital away from us , " said S. 1J.
Wadsworth. secretary of the Board of Trade
and ono of the foremost real estate men of
the city , yesterday while speaking of the
mutter which at present is of more interest
than any other ono thing In Council Bluffs
business circles. "Such a statement is pre
posterous. 1 get letters every llttlo while
from sonic eastern concern that is looking
for a new location , asking mo for particulars
as to property values , freight rates , railway
connection ) ) and taxes. I answer them , giv
ing the particulars they desire , and
the almost Invariable reply is thnt
our taxes nro so high as to
render Council Bluffs an undesirable place to
locate. And why nro they high ! For ono
thing , becuuso the city government has
aliened the motor company to shirk its taxes
for the past live years , thus compelling the
citizens to bear their own llnancial burdens
and also those which the company should
pay. If the lundred thousand or more dollars
lars that the company now owes the city and
Ilio citizens vreto collected it would
materially reduce taxes , and then wo could
go before eastern capitalists without being
ashamed of ourselves. The plea that wo
must let people rob us in pence for fear that
If wo don't other people will refuse to come
from the east to rob us some more Is hardly
worth while listening to. "
Another View.
The following communication to THE Br.K
from a prominent citizen and taxpayer gives
his views on the situation :
"Tho city voted and paid fM.OOO tax to en
able that company to which the franchise
was granted to build a bridge across the
river. Section 7 of the ordinance
of tSSO provides , 'That the failure
of said company to complete the lay
ing dovtii and equipment of the street
railway track and the construction of said
bridge within the time provided In Ihls
ordinances , shall operate as a full forfeiture
of all right of s'lld company to receive or
liuvo paid over to it any part or portion of
the said tax voted and donated by the free
hold resident u xp.iers of said city as pro
vided In chapter 1:1 : of the laws of Iowa of
18JMI.
18JMI."Tho
"Tho people supposed thnt this money was
appropriated to aid the motor company , and
that the motor company , In accepting It ,
acted under penalty of a forfeiture.
"Wo now loam thnt the motor company
was never lu It ; that U has never laid a foot
of rail ; that It owns no property in Council
Bluffs ; that It owes no obligations or duties
under that ordinance ; that the ordinance
was enacted for the benefit of people who
not or used It or intended to use It , except as
an Instrument for the perpetration of fr.iud.
"During this entire year , last past , these
facts wore as well known to the mayor and
city council as they are to the general public
this day. Why is thnt ordinance of IbMl re
pealed f Why is no forfeiture declared ( Why
Is the motor company suffeu-d to use this
charter as a means for further plunder. ' Why
do mayor and city couuclluicn consent to
accept and ride upon passes furnished bv
an oiganlzatlon perpetrating such swindling
operations upon the people whoso servants
these oflicials are elected and paid to be.

Social ( losHlp.
The past week has been noticeable more
for Its dullness than anything else , so far as
social affairs are concerned. Notwithstand
ing the fact that Lent will commence next
Sunday , the hilarity that usually precedes
the period of religious devotion has be-on
noticeably absent. During the coming week ,
however , it is said that there will bo several
social events of more than the usual amount
of interest , and the butterflies of fashion
will make the most of the opportunity of
shaking their wings for the last time until
after Kaster.
Ono of the most enjoyable events of the
week was thepnrty given by Fidelity coun
cil No. 1.10 , lioynl Arcanum , at its hall in the
Shugart block. Each member was permitted
to invite a certain number of friends , and
when the time arrived the hall was well
tilled. The room was strewn with Innumer
able little tables , about which the guests
gathered at 8:1 : ! ) for a few hours at high live.
1'rlzes were awarded Miss Atinehoff ! and
Miss Flicklnger and Messrs. W. II. Dudley
and Will Patterson , while the consolation
prizes were borne off by Mrs. A. K. Brock
nnd Mr. Gurley. At 11 o'clock intermission
was taken for refreshments , after which
followed a couphi of dances before leaving
for home. It was a highly enjoyable affair
and it Is to bo hoped that the Hoyal Arcanum
will not let this be the last time It appears
before the public In the capacity of an enter
tainer.

AVorld's Fair lleer.
To enjoy the distinction of heinK1 the
largest establishment of the kind in the
world outfit to he the' source of u oed
deal of satisfaction. But the 1'alwt
Brewing company of Milwauke , which
has long held the position of being
the largest brewing establishment
in the world , has had 'another
honor thrust upon' it. A tele
gram to C. Geise & Son , solo agents for
the beverage here , received yesterday ,
announced that the great brewing asso
ciation had triumphed over all com
petitors and had been awarded the ex
clusive right to sell Pabst beer at all
points within the jurisdiction of the
World's fair. This award was made in
the face of the strongest competition'
and only after the most thorough investi
gation and analysis had demonstrated
that the Pabst beer was incomparably
superior to all others in every essential
for a harmless and healthful beverage.
The investigation showed it to bo the
purest of all , absolutely free from all
drugs and adulterations , and the visitor
at the World's fair may know that
wherever he gets a glass of buor while
there he is receiving the best there is in
the world. The Pabst beer has received
prizes and awards over all competitors
hundreds of times , and it has been the
general favorite for years in all climes ,
and this latest endorsement is only a
natural result. The award gives a great
deal of satisfaction toMr..Goiso , who has
the solo control here , and it will make
the Pabst beer more than ever popular
in Council Bluffs.

Mrs. ( iorlmm'M New I'leture ,
Mrs. J. A. Gorham has been engaged for
the past few months putting oil canvas a
work which she has had In mind for several
years , and when it is finished she expects it
to bo the best of her life. The years that It
hns been taking form in her mind have not
been passed in idle contemplation of the sub
ject , but in a constant gathering of materials ,
and she brings to her work now , at the best
period of her life as an artist , a bountiful
supply of rich material. The canvas is the
largest she has over used , 4x7 feet. The
subject might be culled a western pastoral ,
an ideal landscape , wrought from innumer
able sketches of the beautiful hills and
valleys around Council Bluffs. In the fore
ground is a spring where the overflowing
water has formed n pond. In the distance
are blue lines of hills with patches of water
in the intervening valley. A sunset glow
suffuses the whole picture , the softened radi
ance coming from almost a Corcan sky. Life
is given by perfect i > ortraits of a number of
cows lazily coming over a HttlO hill
down to thu spring to quench their
thirst after the day's pasturing upon the
rich verdure. These cows are not Ideal fancy
stock but the cruinply-horned , humble , mild-
eyed bossies that ail are familiar with. In
getting her material Mrs. Gorham has
sketched and photographed hundreds of
cows. She expects to have the picture fin
ished by May 1. when it will lu sent to Miu
World's fair , where space has been allotted
to it. Only a very few of her friends have
been permitted to see the work up to the
present tlmo , and they , and the public gen
erally , will await Its completion with in
creasing interest.

READJUSTING SALARIES.
School Itiiurd Milking New Seales for Princi

The Hoard of ICducatlon met last night in
special session to consider changes In the
rules.
Hufore taking up the business of the even

Treasurer Molln in selling the SlSTi.OOO school
bonds to X. W. Harris & Co. of New York nt
par , accrued interest and a premium of
The treasurer was authorized to deliver
the bonds to the purchasers when the money
was paid.
Must of the. ehnuges suggested In the rules
were of a minor character.
One change agreed to affects the salaries
of principals. It has been the rule to allow
principals of two , three and four-room build
ings the same salary after five years con
tinuous service as principals of five-room
buildings ; principals' of live-room buildings
the same after live years continuous service
as those of six-room buildings ; principals of
six and seven-room buildings the same as
those of clghtrojidbuildings ; after continu
ous service of live years principals of eight
rooms the same 'us those of nine after live
years service ; principals of nine or ten
reems the same /as / those of eleven rooms
after live years , and so on iTj > to the princi
pals of tourteen-ro m buildings. All this
scheme was knocked out , leaving the princi
pals' salaries fixed and absolute.
Another change * provides that no contracts
shall be let for printing , for printer supplies
or for any kind of worlt upon buildings ex
cepting to individuals or linns legitimately
engaged in the line of work the bidders rep
resent. The object of the change is to shut
out speculators aiu'l Ipiposters.
Mr. Elgutter uls6 oifored an important ad
dition to the rules , 'govcming the letting of
contracts for the erev'tion of buildings or for
supplying { urnittnc"apRtratus ; ! , fuel or any
other supplies , or Tor labor amounting to
more than $ ! 00. No contract shall bo ac
cepted without a proper and sufiicient bond
furnished by the contractor and sicned by
sureties , who shall be citizens of Douglas
comity and who shall bo known to be finan
cially responsible.
Proposals for contracts amounting to more

T'lKKWoon , N. J. . Feb. II. If physical
condition and conlldoiico can bo taken as a
portion of u pugilist's capabilities , Jim Hall
should certainly win the victory of March 15 ,
when ho and Hob Fitz.sini'nons will contend
before the Crescent City Athletic club at
New Orleans for ? -IUM)0. ( ) No man has over
entered the ring , it is safe to say , with more
purpose of defeating his opponent than will
Jim Hall on the night of the tight.
Han saiu today : " 1 think 1 can best Fit/ ,
and If I don't I presume he will have n vivid
remembrance , when it is all over , that lie
has gene up against something akin to a
cyclone. "
John Kline , who has the reputation of
never training a loser , and who has
trained such men as Jack McAuliffc , Ike
Weir and Tommy Warren , is supervis
ing Hull's training. Hall , he says , loaves
his cottage at (5 ( o'clock every morning and
takes a gentle spin of several miles. Then
he walks rapidly to his training quarters ,
about half a mile from the cottage , and be
gins the hard work at 7 o'clock , and after
using the dumb bells andlnuiin clubs , ho
stands up to his full hoitrht and has Kllno
pound him in the stomach until exhaustion
compels him to desist. Then ho adjusts
a heavy strap about his forehead and lifts
two dumb bells , each weighing forty pounds ,
up and down several times. Ho takes a
hearty dinner at 12 o'clock , and in the after
noon goes skating and punches the bag.
Soinotimes.too , hound Kline wrestle.but Hull
has not yet accomplished the feat of down
ing his trainer. Hall now tips the beam at
11)8 pounds. Should he win the light he will
challenge , Corbctt , Mitchell or Jackson for
the heavyweight championship of the world.

The switchback , by means of which
tin * ( it-eat Northern railway crosses the
Cascade mountains in Washington ,
is u wonderful piece of eiijrini'ui-intf.
When .Jim Tlill , the m-OMilent of the
Great Northern , tleeidetl to nush his
road from Spokane to Pujfct Sound lie
had comparatively a fair field at all
points save one. At that point lie was
confronted by a solid mass uf granite
which blocked hih line for about three
miles , it was determined to tunnel the
mountain , but as the excavation would
be nearly three miles in length and take
three years to complete it was decided
to build a temporary road over the
mountain in order to open through con
nection with the coast as hooon as pos
sible.
The temporary road crosses the ere.st
of the range through Stevens pass at an
elevation of OtiS foot , and the different
altitudes are reached by a system of nine
swltehbaeks. The road at'one plnco
returns three times to within . " > ( ) ( ) feet of
its former line , only a little higher up
the mountain side , but it thus covers a
distance of four miles in curves. It
starts from Tunnel City on the east side
of the mountain and runs to Slovens
City on the west side. Moth of these
places are the points which the tunnel
will connect when it is finished , and
they are two miles and three-quarters
apart ; yet to reach them over the switch
back a distance of fifteen miles must bo
travel-tied.
There are five switches on the west
ern side of the pass and four on the east
ern side , while the heaviest grade is Ul 1
feet to the mile. The survey was begun
last July , and when completed a force of
700 men were put to work and t lie road
rapidly pushed forward. The tracks
were connected January 14 , at which
time the first train went over the road.
Two freight trains a week are now being
ran over it , but it will not bo opened for
passenger traflie until March or April.
i\rry : \\iMle Died.
St. Louis Hopublie : "For every milo
of railway track built in Panama- there
have been u hundred lives sacrificed , "
said Thomas S. McCarthy of San .lose ,
Cal. "When the road was being con
structed , I was a contractor in that
country and did work for the railway
company. In my camp there were about
ItOO Swedes who had recently been t-ent
direct to the railroad works. A Swede
is a light-haired person , and a blonde ,
you know , is more liable to become -
como poisoned with malaria than a
brunette. Out of that number of Swedes
there was not a single man who escaped.
Six weeks after they began to work
every ono of them was dead and burled.
There were Hvo Chinamen employed on
the works , and strange to MIV not one
of them was attacked. They enjoyed ex
cellent health , oveii. more M > than the
native negroes. How it was that they
escaped I never know , but ono of the
Mongolians told mo one day that the
reason was because they smoked eigar-
Sinned \Vlthiint itnrd. .
Ilo was from the west.
Ilo walked into u barber shop and ad
dressed an assistant.
"I want a shave. A Miiive , under
stand , not a speech. Say one word , and
I'll blow out your brains. "
The assistant nodded , and shaved the
terrible customer in silem-e.
"There ! " lie cried , as he r ( e from the
chair and glared triumphantly round
the shop"takes mo to shut no a harbor. "
"He's deaf and dumb , sir , remarked
the proprietor.
And the western man went out.
