The democrats of Iho city met In conven
tion In the south room of the county mint
house lust ulght and completed their nom
inations for the city officers to 'be voted
for at the coming spring election. The dele
gates filled the space nllliln the court rail
ing and the spectators occupied all of the
room outside and packed the room to the
doom.
Nick O'Hrlc-n , chairman of the city cen
tral committee , cnllcd the convention to or
der and named S. B. Wndsworth temporary
chairman. J. H. I/O\VH ! was mnde tem
porary secretary. Mr. Wndsworth made a
pleasant little speech In taking the chair.
A motion to moko the temporary orgnnlza-
tlon permanent carried 'Without opposition.
Committees on credentials and resolutions
were Tfppolntcd , and while they were * out
several gentlemen addrcfised the convention.
The report of the committee on credential ;
showed that nil of the delegates were present
In i > crson or by proxy. -
Nominations for aldcrman-at-large was
the next order. The names of L. A. Devlnc
and Dr. C , Chrlstlaneon were proposed. An
Informal ballot was taken. The result
chawed a alight advantage for Devlne , and
some delegate suggested that the nomina
tion of Devlne bo made -by acclamation. The
motion was put and carried before the
friends of Dr. Chrlotlanson realized whal
was transpiring , anil when they wakcneil
up Dovlne was the nominee of the conven
tion. All of the delegates regarded the
nomination as nil excellent one , however ,
* * lo undo the
and there was no disposition
good work accomplished.
While the convention was waiting for the
appearance of the committee on resolution :
W. H. Ware was called for and made a warm
speech , In the course of which he took occa
sion to remind the members "of the conven
tion that a democratic office holder was fasl
becoming a curiosity In Council Bluffu , and
ho reverted to the time when there was nc
other kind tolerated. Ho also paid his re
spects to the gold democrats , and It there
were any of the gentlemen who supportsd
Palmer and Buckner and honesty In the
Into presidential election present they did
not betray themselves by the terror the
speaker Bcemcd to Imagine he was causlnp
them. His speech was filled with bitter
Irony , and before he concluded the conven
tion seemed to recognize portions of It thai
became familiar to them during the cam
paign last fall.
At the conclusion t > f the speech the reso
lutions committee reported the platfom
upon which the fight for the offices is to be
waged this spring. S. Labhart , chalrmar
of the committee , read the report. It was
typewritten , and had been prepared be/ore
the convention assembled. Some portlonc
were too radical for the committee and tin
blue pencil was freely used. It follows :
We , the democrats nml liberal voters o
Council Hltiffs , In convention assembled
do alllrm our allegiance to bimetallism
and iielvociitc such reforms In municipal
state and national affairs ns will benefi
the majority of the people. We bellcv
that men. rognrdless of party , shouldi unit
In an effort to advance thu Interests o
this city and elect competent men to of
flee , that public affairs may be coniliictei
In a manner that will accrue to the btncfl
of every loyal citizen.
1. We denounce the financial system o
the present city administration. It per
mils large balances of city money to II- -
Idle In the- hands of the city while th
people pay heavy taxes and Interest on bor
lowed money. We oppose nny furthe
bonded Indebtedness until this city be
comes solvent , except for the purchase o
articles and Improvements actually needed
2. We believe It to bo good buslnes
policy to pay current city expenses h
cash Instead of warrants. It shall be tin
policy of the nominees of this conventloi
to nay current expenses In cash at the ear
Hest possible date.
3. We oppose any further granting o
franchises , prlvllesoH or concessions to cor
poratlons or Individuals for speculative pur
poses or otherwise , without due consldera
tlon. and until all the people have had ai
opportunity to consider such matters li
detail and to express themselves illrcctl ;
or Indirectly.
4. We- believe that corporate proper ! ;
should boar Its Just share of the burden :
of government , and are opposed to a pol
ley that allows them to cvnelo taxation am
violate their charters , thus Increnslm , " th <
burdens of small property holders and tin
honest taxpayers.
5. We advocate the city ownership o
electric , ns , water works and telephom
companies , and pledge our support to anj
measure that will acquire such ownershli
at the curliest possible date In a legal am
businesslike manner.
d. We believe that the publication of tin
monthly , quarterly nml annual reports o
the city treasurer and auditor In tin
olllclal newspapers of the city , sliowlm
receipts , disbursements and Indebtedness o
the city , would be lienf llcliil to every tax
payer and property holder , and would re
suit In keeping the expenditures of tin
city within Its resources , and Insist tlw
action shall bo taken which will accom
pllsb this ,
7. Wo Insist that tlio school board o
the Indf pendent district of Council Hliiff :
should bn nonpartlsan and when ublllt ;
and qualifications are equal , preference litho
the employment of teachers be given oui
citizens , and especially such as have grudu

S , Wo demand that all public Improve.
mentH shall bu made In a substantial man
ncr and under honest Inspectors , that no
only the present , but the future welfan
of tlio city and Its people may bo pro
Hfted.
a. Wo bolluvo that hereafter nil worl
doneby thu city on Its streets should b <

grcgated tn the farmers' hall In the base-

Every precinct In the city sent out large
numbers of Us republican citizens last night
to reprtscnt It In the caucuses held for the
purpose of selecting delegates to the city
convention which meets In the court house
this evening. No previous election has
called out a larger attendance. This was
particularly so In the Thltd , Fourth anil
Sixth wards , where the duty was delegated
to the voters of selecting the candidates
tor the council. In all of these wards the
quarters provided were too small to accom
modate the crowd. The contests for aldermanic -
manic honors were spirited but good nalurcd ,
and there was no lack of candidates.
In the Third ward the fight was between
the friends of W. M , McCrary and Thomas
Metcalf. There were so many voters that
U required nearly two hours to gather up
and count their votes , Mr. Metcalf re
ceived n substantial majority on the final
ballot , and his nomination was made unan
imous , Mr. Metcalf I. ) ono of the best
Unown young merchants tn the city , and
this U about the first time , he has ever
been Induced to consent to run for any
olllcu The delegates to the convention arc :

Second precinct , W. E. Balnbrldge , J. R ,

The fight In the Fourth ward waa equally
spirited , but the attendance was not so great
anil It took IC.M time to namu a candidate
for'"alderman to take the place of Alderman
Barstow , who declined r renomlnallon. Not
withstanding bis declination ho received
ninny votes In the caucus , but W. H. Klmbal !
received the greatest number and. was de
clared the nominee. The delegates clioaen
to represent the ward In the convention were ;
First precinct , H. J. Chambers , A. T. Fllok-

The Sixth \vord was the scene of anothet
good naturcd contest for the aldcrmanlc
nomination. Alderman Shubert had every
thing his own way from the start. He
had taken no pains to conceal the fact thai
he desired a rcnomlnatlon. and nil of hl <
friends In the ward were nt the Joint cau
cus to help him. He had practically no op
position , and was nominated on the first bal
lot.- The delegates were ) J. M. Hardln , Sam

One of the features ot the mornlni ; session
sionof the > court was ) the arguing of thq do-
murnr hied In the case ofV. . J. . .lam'i
against the Unltel States Masonic tsenc\o-
lent assoe..itlo'i. ' Jameson , former secretary
and founder of the company , sued for baci
salary alleged to be due under the provision :
of a contract , by which he agreed to relin
quish his secretaryship without a contest.
The Insurance company alleged In Its de
murrer that Jameson had violated the condi
tions of his contract , and even If this were
not so , the enforcement ot the
contract was opposed to public pol
icy , and against the Interests o !
the public , as well as the Interests of the
company. The contract was submitted tc
the court and chowcd that It was an agree
ment by which the other officers and directors
ot the association were to pay Jameson's
salary out of their own pockets. The attor
ney for Jamcron became very warm In hit
arguments to show that the enforcement ol
such a contract could not bo against publle
policy In any community that permitted sa
loons and houses of prostitution to be rur
openly. The court took thu demurrer am
the arguments under advisement.
Foreclosure suits were began yesterday In
the district court by Jane L. Knowles against
F. I. Billiard and wlfo on a note for $050 ,
secured by mortgage on lot 9 , block 15 ,
Plerce's addition , and another for the same
amount on , lot 8 , block 2 , same addition.
The same plnlntlfl. began foreclosure proceed
ings against Jacob Lemon nnj wife on a
note and mortgage dated July , 1891.
The time of the district court ycsterdaj
was wholly taken up In hearing the case ol
the Citizen's bank against the Manhattan
Beach Improvement company. The suit Is
to recover $800 on a note given by the
company several years ago. The case Is
being contested with considerable vigor or
both sides. A number of similar cases
have been docketed In the court and judg
ment allowed by agreement , but the presenl
one Involved some of the rights and privileges
of the company that wcro worth defending

Judgement by agreement was taken In tht
case ot John Sullivan against the Manhat

costs against the same company and had a
special execution issued against the prop
erty attached.

CorrfffN mi Anolfiit Itcrord.
Judge Thorncll was yssterday called upon
to correct an error made by a record clerk In
the county clerk's ofllco thirty years ago ,
The matter was called to the attention ol
the court by a petition filed by J. A. Straight ,
an attorney , who used to practice at the bat
here many years ago. On July 30 , 1SCO , lion ,
Caleb Baldwin entered his order directing
the appointment of a committee to examine
young Straight and Spencer Smith'who was
then a young law student. The committee
was appointed and reported to Judge Jamc.i
G. Day , announcing that the young men had
passed a satisfactory examination and were
entitled to admission to the bar. Judge Day
made the order and the certificates were la-
sued to the young men , but the record clerk
neglected to make the record on the docket.
In course of tlmo Straight's certificate was
burned up In a lire and ho was without any
thing to bho\y that ho was entitled to proc-
tlco In the Pottawattamlo county courts ,
Some tlmo ago ho applied for a duplicate ,
giving dates as nearly as ho could recall
them. The search made of the records then
revealed the omission of the clerk thirty
years ago. Mr. Straight came to the city
and hunted up Spencer Smith and procured
his assistance In getting the error corrected.
Smith's original certificate was produced and
made a part of the petition. Judge Thornell
looked over the evidence and heard u state
ment by Mr. Sn-'ith and Issued tlic order cor.
reeling the record.
When tlm original certificates were Issued
this judicial district was then numbered
Third ; now It U the Fifteenth. The certifi
cate Is a gorgeous piece of country news
paper Job printing , with a border that would
bo the envy of a bankrupt Kale advertiser.
It alao bears a 5-cent 'Internal revenue stamp ,
All the men mentioned ( n the petition
and the certificates , wltlt the exception of
tlioso ot the owners , are dead.

DBS MOIRES , Feb. . - Tele
gram. ) The senate devoted .another entire
day , forenoon anJ afternoon , to the revision
of the Australian ballot laws and when It
was dona had only proved the thing to
hopelessly tangled that It was seriously pro
posed to substitute the .old law entire anil
make no attempt at revision. The forenoon
was devoted to an effort to amend the In
structions for ruarklnR the ballot , with the
design of simplifying them , and It failed sig
nally , The time for openliig polls was
fixed at 8 o'clock In all precincts , except In
cities , where registration Is required ; there
It will be 7 o'clock. All will close at 0 ,
which will make election returns from Iowa
several hours earlier than In the past. Tin
decision of last week , not to have the ballot
publUhcJ In newspapers , was reconsidered ,
and It will bo published , though the rates
for this , as also for printing notices of elec
tions , are reduced considerably. In tlic
afternoon the question of woman sufffjge wca
HsctlBWd. A law passed three pears ago
allows -women to vote at school and mutilclp.il
elections on bond and tax propositions. It
was said this Is contrary tu the constitution ,
and a long debate resulted In allowing the
present law to stand , and take Its chances
with the supreme court. The vote was :
Kor woman suffrage , 2C ; against , 21.
In tlics house thu forenoon was devoted to
reading n long cotlo bill on crimes and pun
ishments , and the session was devoid of In
cident.
At noon the two houscs"hold a Joint session
end elected W. J. Dlxon of Sac City trustee
of the Agricultural college , to nil a vacancy.
The movement to reconsider the senate
amendment to the election laws to prohibit
the name of any candidate from appearing
on the official ballot more than , once Is * as
suming the proportions of a big light. It
develops that political leaders of all par
ties protest against It. A. IJ. Cummins , re
publican national coinmUteoman , Is against
It on the ground that so apparent an effort
to prevent fusion would Injure the dominant
patty ; while the democratic leaders also are
