CUTS OUT SUBURBAN GRANT
Oity Council Ecscinds Action Taken During
July on Motor Lines.
CONSOLIDATION CHANGES THE OUTLOOK
Members Say Permission Wni (ilveii
I oiler 11 MIniirelienslon null Vote
tn ItcMore Streets to Pub
lie Control.
By Its unanimous notion last night the
city council showed its determination to
prevent ns far ns It Is possible the motor
company from securing nny advantage
through its absorption of the Suburban line.
On motion of Alderman Huber tho action
of the city council July 2 last In granting
permission to the Suburban company to
select certain streets which at tho time it
represented that It wished to occupy was
rescinded and the approval of such selec
tion withdrawn. The streets lu uuestion
were ilrondwny, from Oak street to Main
street; Oak street, from Pierce street to
Broadway; Avenue A, from Thirteenth
street to western terminus of tho city;
Pierre street, from South First street to
Or.ihani avenue. Graham avenue, from
South First street to park entrance; park
entrance, from Intersection of Ornham
avenue to Falrmount park; Fifth nvenue,
from Main street to Twenty-first street;
Twent -first street, from Fifth uvenito to
Tenth avenue; Sixteenth street, from
Avenue O to Fifth avenue; Fifteenth
avenue, from Main street west 100 feet;
Fourteenth avenue, from Main street to
Sixth street. Twenty-eighth street, from
Avenue O to Avenue A.
It was represented to the city council nt
that time that, the Suburban company de
sired to parallel the tracks of tho old motor
company, tho streets selected being for the
most part those on which the old company
was operating. It was also stated to tho
council that It was tho Intention of the
company to commence the work of track
laying on these streets at once. This was
never done, as a few days after the right to
occupy these streets had been granted to
the Suburban company it was sold out to
the old motor rompany.
Aldermen Offer lCviliiiiiilloiis,
In Introducing his motion to rescind tho
action of July 2 Aldermnn Huber explained
that he felt that the council had been led
through a misunderstanding of the condi
tions existing at that time to grant these
streets to the Suburban company. The
company had failed to build nny track on
them as It promised and now that It had
sold out to the old company he believed It
was In tho best Interests of tho city and
tho community at large that the grant bo
withdrawn.
Alderman Boyer said he was prepared to
support tho motion as he had Investigated
the matter and from legal advice that he
had secured he believed the council had the
right to withdraw Its grant of theso streets.
Alderman Brown admitted ho had been
misled nnd Had voted to give the streets to
the Suburban company last July. He said
ho was rei dy to olo to rescind that ac
tion. Aldermen Hammer, Lougee and McDonald
favored laying tho mntter ovor for one
week In order to secure tho legal opinion
of the rlty solicitor as to tho council's right
to tako any such action. On tho motion
being put to the vote nil the aldermen
voted In the affirmative. As soon, however,
as tho motion was declared carried Aldor
man Lougeo moved to reconsider on the
grounds that he thought tho matter ought
to be Jald over for a week to securo the ad
vice of tho city attorney. His motion to
reconsider failed to carry, Hammer and
McDonald alone supporting II.
The request of the motor company for per
mission to lay double tracks on Pearl nnd
South Mnln streets was tabled. Tho city
attorney Is requested to submit au opinion
on the present legal status of the case.
A request from residents along tho line
of the suburban for action to compel tho
motor company to furnish them regulnr scrv
ico under tho terms of tho suburban's fra.i
chlso was referred to the city attorney for
an opinion.
I'm v lug: 011 Pierce Street,
Tho matter of moving back tho curbing
on Pierce street between Stutsman and
First streets, In order to widen the street
between theso points eight feot, was, after
a lengthy discussion, referred to the com
mit too of tho whoie. Judge Carson, who
nppearcd for the property owners on this
portion of Plerco street, slnted to the
council that his clients were ready to sign
waivers and willing that the street should
be paved nt once, on condition that ill)
curb line should he nllowcd to remain
where it Is. During the dissuasion It de
veloped that In severnl Instances tho prop
erty owners had advanced their lino fenced
so hh to tnko In pnrt of tho parking, thus
narrowing tho sidewalk. Tho line of tho
present curb was established twelvo years
ago and wns not altered when tho rest of
tho street was, owing to this portion nt
that time being paved. It wns asserted
by Aldermnn Hubert that the curbing was
allowed to remain whero It Is on the ex
press condition that when the street should
be repaved It would bo moved back to con
form with the street enst of Stutsman
street. Judge Cnrson said ns far as hu
knew tho property ownors wore prepared
to movo their fences back to tho property
line, but would rcBlst nny paving being
laid If the city decided to move tho curb
ing back. Tho aldermen will meet .this
morning at 10 o'clock us a committee of
the whole to Inspect tho ground.
Preserving; tin- Alley.
When tho resolution grantlnu Wallace &
Clrout permission, when erecting their new
brick building on North Main street, to
place a sftle plntform and stnlrway pro
jecting Into the nlley and to build an ana
way and steps In front, was brought up,
It developed that certain adjoining prnp.
orty owners objected to the alley being
obstructed In any way by the stairway.
This part of the resolution was finally
stricken out and then the whole matter
laid over for one week.
An Invitation from Secretary Pierre to
the council to attend the third annual
meeting of tho League of Iowa Municipali
ties, to bo held at Mason City October
10 and 11. wns rend nnd on motion of Alder
man Lougee It was decided to accept It.
City Marshal Albro complained that tho
city scavenger, Sam Dobson, was not at
tending to his work and that it was r.oarly
impossible to get him to remove dead ani
mals when called upon. He cited one In
stance whero the scavenger had left a
dend horse on KHIott street for a whole
week and that finally tho owner of the ani
mal had to bury It himself. The committee
on police nnd health was directed to look
Into the matter.
After being opposed by Alderman Lrugea,
the policemen who had done double duty
on Labor day nnd the di.y Pawnee BIU'b

mittee submitted a communication from

luilgp llnrttett Tripp nnd Other Ail
ilrrnN a I.itrKc Audience.
The republican rally last evening cnlled
out a large audience. Dobany's opera house
was draped with tho national colors nnd
garnished with pictures of McKluloy and
Hoosovelt. Thomns II. Baldwin Introduced
tho speakers and bcsldo him oa the platform
wore peatcd Judge Joseph H. Heed, Judge
Walter I. Smith, Judge N. W. Mncy, Ernest
K. Hart. W. II. Klllpack, Spencer Smith,
Oeorgo S. Wright and other local repub
licans. Hon. llartlett Tripp of South Dakota was
tho principal speaker of the .evening. IIo
wns greeted with applause at his first ap
pearance nnd the cheers and shouts of Bp-
probation which punctured his remarks tea-'
tided to the satisfaction of the audience.
The speaker began by stating that ho was
one of the million nnd a hnlf of democrats
who In lSOtl drew off from the dcmocrntlc
pnrty nnd voted for McKlnley. He pro
nounred the sliver Issue still the mnln ques
tion, basing Its importnnce on the statement
of Secretary (iage, concurred In by Mr.
Scluirz, that It would bo possible for a new
executive, owing to a peculiarity In the
wording of the law, to pay tho principal and
Interest of the national debt with silver.
Referring to Schurz's statement that Bryan
would be effectually hindered In carrying
out his free silver program by an unfriendly
senate the speaker showed that while the
senate passed the gold law by a majority ot
eighteen two gold democratic senators had
since then been succeeded by Bllvcr men
and the time of seven more has nearly ex
pired, so that Bryan's election will be very
apt to take with It a chnngc In the political
complexion of tho senate and thus make It
possible for him to carry out his plans.
Mr. Tripp then proceeded to puncture
Bryan's claims to distinction ns a prophet.
He read from a Bryan speech delivered in
1S96 In which It was stated that If McKlnley
were elected wnges would be decreased,
wheat would go down, gold would rise,
mortgages would bo foreclosed, shops and
factories would bo shut up, no goods would
b exported nnd ovcrythlng used would be
Imported.
"What do you think of that kind of a
prophet?" he asked; "a man who can sway
tho people, ns this man, fresh from the
prairies, did, without reason or logic, but
merely through his eloquence and personal
magnetism, is a dungernus man to havo run
ning at large. In JW8, 1890 and this much
of 1000 the excess of our exports over Im
ports has exceeded live times the excess of
tho exports over tho Imports for tho previ
ous 108 years. Tho wheels began turning
almost as soon ns McKlnley was elected.
There never was such manufacturing and
shipping of produce ns in the last four years.
Our water pipes underlie tho city of Glas
gow. Our engines carry the people of Lon
don. Liverpool nnd Australia, Mortgages
huvo been paid off Instead of foreclosed and
wheat has gone up.
"According to Statistician Mulhall the
wealth of tho United States now Is equal
to that combined of Franco and Germany
and equnl to one-third of entlro Europe. In
1896 loans on gilt-edged security could not
bo hail for less than from 8 to 12 per cent.
Now we can get all tho money we want nt 6
per cent. We have recently made largo
loans to England, Germany anil Russia nt X
per cent. Wages havo gone up Instead of
down.
"In short, not one prediction made by
Bryan in 1896 hns como true. Can wo trust
him for tho future?"
The speaker scouted the Idea of elghty
Blx soldiers to every 100,000 citizens being
able to chango the form of government to
that of an empire or military despotism.
"Whero is there In the army today n popular
Idol like Grant?" he asked; "as much ns his
own soldiers loved him, If they had had tho
least suspicion that ho wanted to bo an em
peror a sword would have done for him
what Brutus did for Caesar. If this was
so In a victorious nrmy of 2,000,000 men how
enn wo dread whnt a little nrmy of 63,000
men will do?
"Jefferson, whom Hrynn Is proud to clnlm
for an example, was tho most maligned of
nil expansionists. When tho Loulslnna pur
chase was made every ofilco was an ap
polntlvo nnn nnd the strictest kind nf n gov
eminent had to bo mnlntnlned In order that
law and order might bo preserved. But In
Porto Ulco tho pcoplo havo been ullowcd to
elect thejr own officers nnd wo havo sent
them M.GOO.OOO nnd sixty teachers. Wo havo
sent Cuba fourteen tons of school books.
What will bo done with tho Philippines I
don't know. McKlnloy's only concern Is to
