That has been their contention since ho movement In favor of the exposition was started on the Iowa side of Ihe river ana It wao made the subject of n inccttns Hold at tlio court house laet night and was emlrdleJ n a yet of rather drastic resolutions that vvcro adopted touching tint point. The meeting wap under the auspices of the Merchants' and Manufart ircrs' . . . of Council Illuffa and was well attended lion. Gcotgo V.

Ho said there were more people In the west ern half of Iowa than there weio ii al Ne braska , and that the exposition would be n wonderful help to the state .11 ! to Council mutts If It were located to tint his uty wculd have easy access to It.

One hundred and four years of life , with 100 of It spent In the activities of boyhood and manhood , In rugged health and In the full enjoyment of all his faculties , IE a bless ing vouchsafed 'to but few people In this world , Pleasant Taylor , who died at his homo In Taylor Station , near Oakland , this county , on Saturday night , waa one of the few who have pause I the century mark , He was born In Tennesceo In 1792 , and was the son of old Benjamin Taylor of colonial and revolutionary fame , and related to the pres ent reigning Taylcr family of Tennessee , He was married In 1829 , and came to Iowa In 1S)2 , In 1850 he took up his residence In Pottawattamlo county. All of his life ho was a man of affairs , active and progress ive. Ho acquired title to ono of the finest farms In the Mate. It comprises 4SO acres lying near the town of Taylor Station. For tl.o last half of the century ho has been one of the hardest working farmers In the county , as well as the mot progressive and prosperous. Ills residence In Iowa antedates all railroads and almost everything cite that has helped to make the nineteenth century the goldei age of the world. For years he was station agent at Taylor In the days of the stage codcnes , and was a prime mover In many of the enterprises that In early ilajs fixed public attention upon Council Bluffs. The funeral will occur today , and It will probably lie one of the largest In the history of the castei n part of the county.

When the connc'l met list night Mayor Cleaver had a coupU of csmmunlcallons In the t shape of vetoes to lay before the alder men. The first was the veto of the settlement - ment made by the council of the claims of Gelslcr and Mrs. Peterson for n defective sidewalk , and the judiciary committee had recommended a settlement of their claims for $175 eatli. The council had concurred In the report. The mayor stated his rcison for vetoing the settlement to br "The record cf the act'on taken by the committee of the whole , and passed upon by the council In my absence , w2 ! ? Incormct and did not Interpret 1t terpret t the action taken by that body. In my judgment the Peterson case Is not en titled to a monclaiy consldr.itlon at the hards of this council , and should be tabled Indefinitely. " Barttow moved that t'.ie message be re jected , and on Hi ? call of the roll ev. ry mem ber voted to kill the veto. The mayor vetoed ono of thera se'tlementt last summer when ths Judiciary committee reported In favor cf allowing a settlement cf the ? claim for ? 2..0 , and the veto was then sustained. The next vc'o was of more direct psisonal Interest to the members of the council , for it sliced off J50 n yeir from each of the aldermen's salary. T.ie communication lead by the clerk was as follows : To the Honorable City Council Cientle- irrn : I herewith return unsigned , the or dinance entllled "An ordinance IKIng the compensation of city olllccrt1 , nnd repeal ing otdliuinces heretofore passed , " for the follow Ins i capons ; Personally. 1 do mt favor the reduction of the sn'nrles of any of the"1 olllcri , from the standpoint tint to obtain the serv'ce of competent and con centlou : men , le gitimate salaries should be nllJwed. In m > op.nlon the compensation of city Ireasuier , ns therein fixed , Is not comm9iiI < ur.ite with the duties nnd re--tionslb'ltles ! of the olllce bo necersarllv having to devote Ills entire llmo to It , nnd furnWi boinlc In the amount of J100000 for the faithful perform ince of "aid ilutlea , If , In the judgment of tills council It 'ccms necessaij to enfoice nt lo.ist temporary retrenchment , ns outlined In the ordinance , 1 would MtRgest that the ordinance bo amended ng follows : In lieu of secfon 1 , No 3 : Tin- city tie.i - Ill icr shall lecelve the sum of $1,3)0 ) pel venr. Following : section 1 , Xo fi : Kach nldtr- man iccelve tbe sum of Ji'OO per year. Th's was something of a severe surprise to the council. The members had received some intimation that Hie mayor had prepared a veto message annulling the ordlnanc ? passed at the las' meeting , leluclns the larles of the city officers , and they ex pected that It would refer tci all the ofllccrs whose pay was cut. They were consequently not prepared lo receive n propos lion cutting their own meager pay. The silence that en sued d'd ' not la&t long. A motion was made to pass the ordinance over the veto. A faint hearted second was lieoid , and the roll call followed. Every member voted a > e , and the aldermen saved their own pay. Mrs. Lena Miller asko to have her prop erty , lot 1 , block G , Hang's extension , ex empted from taxation for the year 1S93. for the reason that she was unable to meet the expenses of living nnd pay her back taxes. The matter was referred to the judiciary committee. Alderman CreenEhleldg brought up the matter of removing the street car rails that had been laid to hold franchises or take advantage of contemplated Improvements In various parts , of the city , but which had never been used and only constituted a dan gerous obstruction to street tinfllc. He put his motion In the tJiapo of a icsolutlon direct ing the marshal to remove the pieces of track on North Elshth street , on Ninth avenue from Main street to Ninth street nnd on Upper Broadway , provided the p'teet car companies owning the tracks and responsible for their cons-tructlon did not remove them within a reasonable time. The icsoluuon pawsd without debate. Aldeiman Shubert repoitcd that his atten tion had been called to the unsafe condi tion of a bildgc on Avenue H , near Gout Hand beach , on the public highway leadl.ig Irom the beach to Omaha. Half 'f tha bridge had been covered with hard pine planka ard the planks had" become rotten and dangerous.

Mr. Phctps. The meeting Was originally called fcr the purpose of receiving the re port of the financial secrctaryianjj treasurer. but the unexpected ros'gnatlr.n of the pas tor Sunday changed the charftcter of the atajmblagi Into a meeting for the purpose of taking action upon the resignation. Hev. Joshua Ulale occupied the chair na moder ator. The written notification cf the pastor was submitted , and especial emplm-lsi was placed upon the request that the acc3ptance of lily resignation be made unanimous. Whctj the ballot was taken the result showed that only about two-thirds of the congregation had voted. The count fltowod sixty-nine Vi.teu In favor of the resignation and forty- five against Its ) acceptance. The remainder of the congregation either refused to vote or else cast blank billets After the resig nation was declared by the moderator to bo accepted an attempt to make It uinnlmouy at the urgent request of Dr. Phclps failed. The following resolutions heartily endorsing ing the pastor , however , were adopied with out a dissenting vote : Whereas , llev. Stephen Pbelp , I ) 15 , pastor of Ibis church , hni given notice to tile cbuich nnd congregation of bis purpose lo it k the piesbvtery to ill'so ve the pas- tornl relations between him nml the church , nnd has n ked the church and congregation to unite vvllh him In such icqucal ; ibeie- foie , be It Resolved , Tlmt as a chinch nnd congie- Knllon , we leluctnntly yield to this request of our pastor and unite vvllh him In the ro- < iuest to the presbytery for the dls'olutlon of tliO pastoral lolnltoii * , nnd that tlitce com missioners members of the church , be appointed by Iho moderalor of Hi s inecliiiK lo nttcnil the presbytery , Hther In Its letjiilar meeting In Aprl. , or an > tpecial mooting which may ) > e c.illrd for Hint purpo c , nnd represent the i lunch upon the hrailne of said application.

The financial affairs of the church were discus-sed to some extent. The repoit of the financial secrctaiy showed that about $3,300 had been pledged , but thai a hige amount of It had been given with the spe cific understanding that It waa not to be- collected If Dr. Phclps ceased to be lha pastor. After the close of the meeting , and the very best of feeling prevailed thioughoitt all of the dlhCUKilcns , It wan Intlmitcil by sameof the membeis that there were not more than four or five in tbe entire congre gation who actually favoied the Designation of the pistor , but that the majoilly vole was only secured through tile lullet that It WPS best for the pastor to seek other fields where his labors would be less exhausting. iiijoliio < l n W.
