ARGUMENTS PRESENTED YESTERDAY

Jaterprejimfiori of Ilic Statute
ahtil Cinart Tnkcs the Uattcr.
Under AiI' IMeJICftt.

In the district court yesterdy afternoon
Judge Smith litteoed to the -arguments in
the suit brought by time city to thpel. the
Board of County Supervisors to expcnii time.
portion of the county road fund as derivett
from taxation of property within the city
limits according to the directions of the
city council , Time city was represented ly
City Solicitor Wadsworth and the Board of
Supervisors by County Attorney Saunders.
The arguments occupied a little over an
hour.
The argument of City Solicitor Wadsworth
was practically a presentation of the city's
side of the case n.e set forth in the petition. I
lie contended that time new code provided
that the portion of the road fund collected
from the taxation of property within the I
city should only be expended by the supervisors -
visors at the direction ot time city council ,
wlmich should have absolute say as to where
and in what manner it should be expended.
County Attorney Saunders opposed the po-
sitlon taken by the city and contended that
the word "direction" In time statute simply I
macant that the city should have power to
direct as to the manner in which the work
simould be done , but that it did not intend to
convey to the council the authority to die-
tate where. County Attorney Saunders also
contended that nIl of the tax sought to be
controlled by tim cIty having been levied
prior to the ocw law going into effect was
not affected by the new code.
ZtIr , Saunders stated that tim county board
was about to expend all of the road tax eoi-
lected for the year 1897 from Kane township -
ship in the improvemept of time streets of
Council Bhimife and upon the roads leading
into the city and that no expenditure of tim
fund would be made upon any road beyond
a point seven miles distant from tile city.
lIe claimed that the city , if it secured control -
trol of the fund , intended spending it tipon
( ho cleanIng and not lnmprovement of the
streets.
Judge Smith took the case under advise-
macnt , but gave no Intimation as to how soon
his decision aught be looked for.
Time forthcoming issue of the Class Look
of ' 98 , CouncIl Bluffs High school , will be
one of exceptional interest and merit. The
body of the work is being comnpiled by the
pupils of time class , who nrc making excellent -
lent effort in this line , and the artistic designs -
signs for the cover and title-pages are from
( lie pen of 0110 of their own members. The
half-tone cuts scattered through the pages ,
are prepared from photographs taken cx-
pressly for this work , Altogether , It will
be flfl attractive little booklet amId much
sought for as a pleasant souvenir of the

The preamble set forth the party's belief
In the initiative and referendum and endorsed -
dorsed the national platforms adopted at
Omaha In 1892 and at St. Louis in 1890. The
platform Is opposed to issuing of interest-

bear a share of taxation.

sent to Prof. Ilaines of Chicago for chemical
analysis. Hughes died very suddenly April
17. The attending physician , on death cer-
( ideate , gave heart failure as the probable
cause. Since hughes' death ( acts have do-
velop&1 throwing strong suspicions which
will warrant immediate action as soon as
flames' report is received. Hughes carried
a $2,000 life policy with the Knights of
Maccabees and $1,000 in the Northwestern
of Milwaukee , both of which have been paid.
Hughes was married about twelve years
ago and left a widow and a son aged 11
years.

DES MOINES , May 28.-Spcclal ( Teic-
gram.-Tlme ) famous Prime-Guest case was
disposed of by the supreme court today , but
the Public is to be denied tine particulars I
that are furnished by a written opinion.
Tine six judges were divided equaiiy on the
case , donsequently no opinion was flied and
the public is left in the dark as to time
IMints upon which they failed to agree. A8
a result of this state of affairs time decision
of time lower court stands afliramed ,
Tine details of the case arc well known ,
Tine troubie arose over tue election for
brigadier general of tine FIrst belgado of
the Iowa National' Guard held February 24 ,
1S96. It wai , determined that no cammdidate
re'ei"etl a majority of the votes cast and
a second election was ordered to be held
oil March 25 , 1896. The last election re-
suIted in John K. Prime receiving a majority -
jority of the votes cast , and upon that an-
noumncement suit was brought in the courts
to compel the issuance of a certificate of
1ection to James A. Guest , on the ground
thnat he had been duly elected at the time
otf.tht.frq ) olecton. On Januay .9 , 1St7 ,
Judge Spurner of''Polk dounty district
issued an order of mandamus directing
and commanding defendants to re-canvass
time result of the election held March 25 ,
1806 , and to count for each of the respective -
tivo candidates for such office 'of brigadier
general all the votes appearing by said cc-
suits to have been cast for such candidates ,
IncludIng the previously rejected , anti to
issue a commission in accordance therewitin
in due form as prescribed by law. Fronm
this action of the lower court an appeal was
taken , with the result as already described.
The effect of the decision will , in the
opinion of military circles , make General
Prime colonel of tine Fifty-third Iowa volun-
teers.
The record of the supreme court shows
time case of Ford against Dunmore from the
F'ifteenthm district to have come to tine same
end as was reached by the Prime.Guest case
today. It too , resulted from a cointested
election and the supreme judges became
deadlocked as to the merits of the case. No
written opinion was filed anti the decision
of tine lower court was allowed to 'atamti ,
