As the assessment of thw Union Pacific
Railway company Is Included In the fore-
KCltiK , the temporary restraining order Issued
by Judge Munger of the federal court ap
pears to have reached the executive council
too late to bo of any force. The tem
porary restraining order was signed by Judge ! I
Mungur Wednesday afternoon , while the en-1
velopo containing the certificate of nssesa- | I
nient was stamped as having boon receive ? ! ,
nt the poBtofllco here at 3:30 : p. m. The Di-s
Molnes stamp showed It was mailed there
at S:30 : o'clock Friday morning.
Advices from DM Molnes are to the effect i
that the certificate was prepared , and had ' [
been Issued previous to the Injunction being
served on State Auditor Merrlam and State {
Treasurer Herrlott , two members of the
council. Service could not be had on Gov
ernor Shaw and Secretary of State Dobson , !
owing to their absence from the city. The '
hearing on the application by the Union ] ;
Pacific for an Injunction restraining the ; \
i
executive council from certifying to the i
county auditor the assessment has been
postponed by agreement to Saturday of next ,
week. |
Should Judge Munger decide that the cer- j ,
tlflcate of assessment was properly made ,
prior to the service of the Injunction on the
two members of the council , the next step I
doubtless of the Union Pacific will bo to ask j |
an Injunction restraining County Auditor (
Innes from collecting the taxes based upon
such assessment.
The assessment of the Union Pacific made
by the executive council Is the same as
that made last year and In the years Im
mediately preceding. The property of the
Union Pacific In Iowa Is all In this county
and consists of 2.00 miles of railroad as
sessed at $150,000 per mile and 1.72 miles of
the "dummy" line , which the company does I
not nt present use , assessed at ? 4,000 per
mile.

MAXV SCHOOL SITISS AHE OFFHUKD.
All 1'roiiOHlllN MiiMt He In llniul Thin
Muni I n if.
When H comes to selecting a slto for the
now High school building the Board of Edu
cation will not want for material to choose
j from. Owners nnd agents of prospective
I sites tiavo flooded the secretary's office with
InquliiCH and already a number of offers
have boon submitted. Under the plan
adopted by the board all proposals muHt bo
In the hands of Secretary Hess by 10 o'clock
this morning. The proposition itself will
( bo sealed , to lie opened .at the meeting of
the board next Tuesday night , but on the
outside of the envelope must bo written a
description and location of the property
offered. This Is to enable the members of
the board to visit and examine the sites that
a selection can bo made prior to the meet
ing.
ing.As
As cadi proposal has been received by
Secretary Ross ho has nt once notified the
members of the board , and yesterday after
noon several of them visited the sites so far
offered ,
Ono of tile sites offered Is a tract be
tween Fifth nnd Park avenues ut the head
of Story street. Another Is a tract between
High School avenue , Third street and the
present High school building. The prop
erty at the coiner of Bryant and Vine
ptreets , opposite ( no police station , has been
offered. Another slto Is at the corner of
Third avenue and South Eighth street. This
pieceof property contains 200 feet frontage
on Third avenue and 146 on South Eighth
street. The owner of lots G and 7 In block
12 , Baylls * second addition , has submitted
a proposition. These lots , which are situ
ated nt the northeast corner of Second avenue -
enuo and South Tenth street , are each 66x130
feot.
feot.AH
AH of the sites , with ( the exception of the
Bryant and Vine street one , are located south
of Broadway , but It Is understood that sites
on Washington avenue and Oakland avenue
will bo offered. Several of the members of
the board are In favor of having the school
either on Washington avrnuo or near thero.
Some of thorn favor the largo tract on Oak
land avenue directly back of the Washing
ton Avenue echool. This property is high
and sightly and would afford ample grounds
around the building.
Architects who have been consulted on itho
matter are of the opinion that such a build
ing as the board proposes putting up will
roqulro a lot wKli at least 200 feet frontage
and not less that 175 feet depth. It Is bc-
Hovcd that the t > oanl will not if possible
spend moro than $10,000 for the site.
Think ! If only thirty people start In on
the first Bee wheel content the average num
ber of subscribers they have to get will only
be ten. Of course more will start , and If
you are one of them why should you not
gut a wheel ? You chooao any malu-
U doesn't cost anvthlnc but a little work
to got a good wheel In The Bco contests.

Cltr OfflcliilN Worried Over Ilrclxlnn
of tlnltnl .Slate * Court.
City official * arc somewhat afraid that the
recent derision of the United States court ,
In which It Is held that special taxrs for Im
provements , such as grading , sewering nnd
paving , cannot bn legally assessed and col
lected to a greater amount than the benefit
to the property from the Improvement for
which the tax Is levied , may have the effect
of preventing the carrying out of any public
Improvements this year In Council Bluffs.
The decision of the United States court It
Is felt will result In moro or less litigation
In this city , as there Is considerable prop
erty which has liecn taxed for Improvements
beyond what the owners consider the benefit
to have been. H IB possible that thin rto-
clslon may prevent the paving this spring
and summer of those streets for which the
contracts have already been let. The deci
sion affords the owner of property abutting
on a street ordered paved a chance to pro
test against the assessment for such work on
the pica that the 'benefit to his property is
not equal to the cost of such Improvement
and might Involve the city In almost end
less litigation.
The streets ordered paved and for which
the contracts have 'been ' let are North First ,
North Second , Bryant , North Main streets ,
part of Washington avenue and Harrison
street.
It Is generally'conceded
conceded that there are
some radical Inequalities In the present sys
tem of assessing for special Improvements
that should bo remedied If possible , and It
Is believed that nn effort to have this done
will be made at the next session of the
legislature.
The code of 1S97 provides that the cost
of street Improvements shall bo assessed as
n special tax against the abutting property
In proportion to the number of lineal front
foot of such property. It further provides
that the cost of the Improvements at In
tersections of streets and alloys shall bo
assessed likewise against the abutting prop
erty on that street In the same proportion.
This Is l > y many considered to bo unjust , nnd
It is claimed the cost of the Intersections
should bo paid by the people of tha city
at large. Then again the present law ig
nores the value of the property nnd assesses
the cost of the Improvement In proportion
to the front feet of the abutting property ,
even though the expense of the improvement
exceed the value of the property so ns-
sossed. In vlow of the recent decision of
the United States court It Is this that the
city ofllclnls believe will result In much
litigation if the paving already contracted
for Is carried out and the cost assessed as
the la-w provides.
Under the present system It Is claimed
that it saddles an unjustly large proportion
of the cost of street Improvements upon the
corner lots. When all the streets around
a block have been paved It will be found
as a rule that the owners of corner lots
have paid about four times as much for the
Improvement as has been assessed to the
Inside lots.

CURE
SICK-HEADACHE
TROUBLED FOR YEARS.
Waupun , Wis. , Dec. 14 , 1898.
J. F. SMITH & Co. , New York.
Gentlemen : For years I was
troubled with indigestion and sick
headache regularly every three
or four weeks , and I paid out con
siderable money to different phy
sicians and used a great many
different remedies , but not until I
found your Bile Beans I could get
no relief. They have done me all
the good in the world , as I have
not had an attack of headache
since I began using them , about
a year ago , neither am I troubled
with indigestion.
I would not be without them as
long as they are obtainable , as
they are the best thing of the
kind I have ever used.
Very respectfully ,
Mrs. ANNA ARNO.

AFTER 30 YEARS'AFFLICTIOH '
2421 Woodland Avenue ,
Kansas City , Mo. , Dec. 19 , 1898.
I have tried nearly every
medicine recommended for the
cure of constipation and sick
headache , with which I have
been afflicted more than 30 years ,
but would only receive temporary
ary relief. About nine months
ago I used one package of Bile
Beans and I seem to be perma
nently cured.
Yours respectfully ,
A. S. TAYLOR.

Gentlemen : Having used your
Bile Beans for a number of years ,
through the recommendation of
one of the best physicians of
Barton Co. , I must say they are
the best medicine ever used , that
a cousin , who for 20 years , having
chronic diarrhoea , was entirely
cured by them. Respectfully ,
