NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS
Democrats Who Doa't Like Jim Weaver
Are Mow Being Ileird From ,
LUCIUS WELLS AIRS HIS OPINION
If thn I'mlon I * rorccil on the Convention
Ho nnd Hundred * I.IKo Him Ulll
llnvo No Cunilldiitn for Con-
Rre9 ( Ml * Ynir.
Some of the most prominent democrats
of the city nro not taking very kindly to
the Idei of nominating General James II.
Weaver ns their candidate for congress , nnd
they promise to do as much work against
him In the next few weeks as the advocates
of the fusion plan have done for him In the
past. Altogether the democrats seern to
be hopelessly divided , and even If It tu'rns
out , as Is commonly understood , lhat
Wcivcr owns all tlio delegates to the demo-
crailc congressional convention , his election
Is by no means sure.
Lucius Wells , one of the best known of
the local democrats , gave his views In no
uncertain manner yes'crday In conversation
with a lice reporter. "I have a good deal
of respect for a republican who honestly be-
HOVPS In republican principles nnd does his
bcal to make them win , but I haven't n
paitlclc for a man who gives up all his
political principles tor the sake of voting
for a winning candidate. I don't believe
Weaver Is the right man for the place , nnd
democrats have no business to nomlmto
him If ho is nominated I shall not have
any candidate to vole for , that's nil "
Mr. Wells Is not the cnly prominent demo
crat who talks In that strain The scheme
Is nw understood to be to have the demo
crat * endorse Weaver , and then the popu
lists In return will support all the demo
cratic candldites on the county ticket. In
this way the democrals hope to overcome the
majority of 2,500 which Congressman Hager
had In the d strict on his first election.
One thing tint the democrats have failed
to cilculnte upon , however , Is the disaffec
tion which the nomination of a man like
Weaver , who has bel nged at one time or
another to every party , would cause among
their Influential parly men.

Aldermen Are Ccm lilerlnir Thins for Pre
venting Iniinil itlon.
The city authorlllos are discussing plan .
for preventing the overflows of Indian creek ,
which have done so much damage In years
past to the property adjoining. They have
come to the conclusion thnt a good deal of
the trouble could be done away with by mnk-
Inz n reservoir In the extreme easlern part
of the city. Into which the surplus water
would How as fast as It Is drained off from
the glens. The mayor and Aldermen Keller ,
Crahl. White nnd Brewlck nnd City Engi
neer Etnyre paid a visit to a plat of ground
just cist of Krctllch's place on East Broad
way > estcrday forenoon for the purpose nf
looking over n natural reservoir , which , by a
little excavating and the construction of a
dam. It Is claimed , will keep In a large
amount of water and allow It to pass off
more Gradually , so as not to overflow Ihe
city. To make lhat plan work , however , It
will probably be necessary lo allow ti good
share of Ihe waler lo fill up Ihe valley around
tlio proposed reservoir , and that Is right
where the aldermen are perplexed. Some of
the farmers living near claim that this would
work greal damage to them by overflowing
some of their best land nnd perhaps ruining
their crops. It has been suggested that the
city make arrangements for the payment of
n rental to thorn , with the understanding
lhat they are to waive all damages In case
of n flood.

lighted with electric lights. The toboggan

Ever since her attempt to kill herself at
the LaFord residence , near Parks' mill , by
means of strychnine , the neighbors have
been looking for her , but without success

always fool her by giving her nn emetic.
She also refused to say what she had done

CHICAGO , July 23. The Evening Journal
javs : Economy Is now the order of Ihe
day with all Ihe great rends , nnd especially
have the efforts cf Ihe general managers
been directed to the decreasing of mileage.
Mr. St. John expects to be able to reduce
Die Rock Island's mileage 4,000 miles a day
ngalnsl last jear.
The Snnln Fo operating officials nre nt
work on n new tnln schedule , which , In a
great measure , will cover the present ground
nnd yet enable the road lo save aboul $2,000
a day. The saving will be achieved by run
ning the Pacific const express as n single
section from starting point to terminus In
stead of dividing ll Into two sections at
Kansas City ns under Ihe present mode of
handling the traffic. The officials of Ihe
road nro of Ihe opinion that during the
pro cnt hard times one through trnln a day
each way on the old line w.ll meet all re
quirements. Other reductions will bo ar
rived at by Irpplng oft certain luxuries
which close competition made apparenlly
necessiry , but for which the uverage irovelcr
cares very lltlle.

el > Saved Managers tlio Trouble of
I.ajliiK Off Men.
The lessons ot Ihe recenl strlM are
fraught with Interest not only to the men
who went out In sympathy for the Pullman
emploves , but to Iho world of Irade as well.
Not only nre the men along" Iho Union Pa
cific west of Julesburg realizing the slress-
ful condition In which llicy have placed
Ihcmsclvcs , but the merchants , the butchers
nnd bakers and candlestick makers are now
brought fnco to face with unpaid bills and
Ihe decreasing earnings due to lack of wotk
upon the part of those who but a month ago
were earning fair wages , contented with their
condition.
It is a fact that out of 283 men who went
out on ( he strike of the A. R. U. at Denver
connected with the Union Pacific shops , but
thirty-five men have been re-emplojed , the
others being wlthoul positions. Superlnlend-
cnt Deuel had orders at Denver before Ihe
slrlke lo reduce his forces In the Denver
shops very materially July 1 , but the men
who left their work In support of whal Ihey
believed lo be a principle saved Mr. Deuel
the trouble of dropping a number of em
ployes from the pay roll.
This same condition applies nt Cheyenne ,
Jack O'Hcarn having had Imperative orders
to reduce the hours of labor In conformity
with the reduction at Omalin , bul the men
went out and todayithe shops ore closed ,
with the exception ofa few men who have
been retained to finish repair work.
The repilrs on the whqle system of the
Union Pacific are now being done at Omaha
and Denver , and If business does not pick
up veiy soon Ihe repairs will be of a vcrj
llghl character '
But the Union Pacific Is not alone In the
matter of Imperative reductions U Is
stated authortlallvely that , Ihe Rock Island ,
too , has Inken advantage of Ihe strike by
allowing 60 per cent of the men who quit the
service of the- company to'remain out of Iho
fold , and lhat so fnr as the business of the
road was concerned the strike could not have
occurred at a more opportune lime.
This Is Iho consensus of opinion among all
railroad men and the aftermath of the slrlke
Is not yet fully and completely developed.

CHICAGO , July 25. The Atchlson road has
announced definitely that It has at present
no Intenllon of re-enlcrlng the Western
Passenger association , and It will have no
parl In any meellng held wllh lhat object.
This announcement was called forth by the
opinion which has become current of late
that the western roads would unite In an
association for the conservation of revenue
and maintenance of rates. At the same
time Ihe advocales of Iho general associa
tion nro by no means discouraged by the
attitude of the Atchlson , nnd when Chair
man Sebastian of the transcontinental com

Is prepared to call the meeting with the ob
ject of forming the association ho will not
hesitate on account of Ihe Alchlson. That
road has acted In so conservative a manner
and avoided making war on nny line so

J. G. Woodworth of Ihe Iowa Central ,
general freight agent of that system , ar
rived In Omaha last night In response to a
telegram from Receiver E. McNelll of Iho
Oregon Railway & Navlgallon company. Mr.
Woolworlh , who vvns formerly as Istant gen
eral freight ngent of the Union Pacific ,
rather expects to link his fortunes wllh
Mr. McNelll cf Iho Oregon company.
Talking lo a reporter last night ho stated
that It was Impossible lo state just what
would happen until he hnd a talk with Mr.
McNelll. Ho was here , he said , simply In
respon o to a telegram.
In reply to a question whether the Oregon
company had formed nn nlllance with the
Great Northern , ho said he thought the
rumor vvns premature , for the reason that
the Oregon company would undoubtedly bo
a free lance for a time at least , taking
fre ght from every road that had freight to
offer.
As to the policy of the Oregon company
ha stated he knew nothing , but looked for
ward lo Us being one ot Ihe great systems
cf the country.
It Is thought thai Mr. Woodworth will
bo made assistant general manager and have
virtually Iho charge of the operation of the
road.
