Elks' Club Entertainments.
Under the auspices of the Elks' lodge the
people of Council Bluff will be offered
this winter a series of intellectual and in

auditorium. In providing this course of
high-class entertainments the Elks' lodge
does so, not with a view of making a
financial profit, but purely with the object
of offering Hi member and the people
generally, regardless of lodge affiliation,
a series of clean, instructive attraction
at a price merely calculated to pay ex
penses. -While this venture on the part
of the Elks' club is something new in
this city, it 1 believed that It will be ap

ENLISTS HOSPITAL CORPS
Adjunct to Guard Force of tha State to Bo
Located in tha Bluffs.
BODY NOT ATTACHED TO ANY REGIMENT
Major Macrae, Sara-eon of the Flfty
Hixth Regiment, Is to Hare
Charge of Enlistment and
Organising; tha Corps.
I
In addition to the Dodge Light Guards
Council Bluffs will in the near future be
the headquarter of another branch of the
Iowa mHitia. Major Don Macrae, Jr., sur
geon of the Fifty-sixth regiment, Iowa
National guard, received orders yesterday
from Adjutant General Byers to enlist a
hospital corps to be stationed In this city.
The corps will be unattached and will be
liable to be called out to serve with any
regiment or company of the Iowa mllltla,
as the necessity may demand.
The enlistment Is to lie made under prac
tically the same regulations which apply
to the regular army. The corps Is to con
sist of about twenty men. who will be re
quired to enlist for a term of three years,
the enlistment being the.same as. In the
other branches of the National guard.
The men enlisting In this corps will be
required to go through a regular course
of Instruction In anatomy and drills in
caring for the Injured, and other duties
which would devolve upon them when
called Into the field. It la suggested that
young men' with a taste for such work,
medical students and those Intending to
adopt the medical profession, be enlisted
as far as possible. m
Surgeon Macrae In discussing the matter
yesterday said: "Council Bluffs ought to
be flattered at being selected as the head
quarters for this new hospital corps. As
I understand it, the corr will not be at
tached directly to any company or regi
ment, but will be called out for service
whenever needed. To have such a branch
of the mllltla service In this city may
prove most beneficial.
"For Instance, In the cane of a railroad
wreck or other disaster happening in the
city or immediate vicinity, here will be a
body of men drilled In the duty of attend
ing the Injured who can be called upon
to assist in any emergency. Although no
arrangements have, of course, been made
as yet, and none will be until the enlist
ment of the corps is completed, I presume
the corps will occupy the same quarters
md armory as the local company, the
Dodge Light Guards. Personally, I feel
honored aj; being selected by Adjutant
General Byers to organize this hospital
corps, which Is one of the most valuable
arms of the regular as well as the mllltla
service."
Major Macrae stated that he would be1
prepared to receive applications at once
Crom any one anxious to enlist in the corps,
ind that application should be made to
'ilm at his office In the Merrlam block,
vhere blanks and all Information relative
o the requirement for enlistment could
i ifl. secured. . i ., .ijjii'

nent injunction Is heard at the' November

Injunction as against the Krug Brewing
company, owners of the saloon building,
and D. Kroll, Mlthen' partner, was dis

suit ' In the district court against Bur
rlght for $3,000 damages. Cody received
severe injuries at the time of the assault

City lteports Printed.
The, annual document lasued by ths city
containing the mayor's message and re
ports of the several city officers for ths
fiscal year ending March 81, 19uS, has been
delivered by tha printers and Is now being
distributed by City Clerk Phillips. In addi
tion to the usual reports of the several
heads of the city departments, the volume
this year contains the annual report of the
Board of Trustee of the free public library,
this report being added at tha eipensa of
the IJbrary board and making quits o,
valuable and interesting feature of . the
annual document.
nnply of Pavtaa- Brlelc Is Shart.
Tha paving on Harrison street has corns
to a stop, owing to ths supply of home
made brick not holding out.; The contract
provides for the street being paved with
Council Bluffs brick, top and bottom
course. Contractor Wlckham Is endeavor
ing to secure waiver from the abutting
property owners, permitting the substitu
tion of Qaksburg brick or block for the
top course at a higher price. Indications
are that if the property owner do not
consent to this change the balance of the
street will not be paved this year. The
paving Is completed as far as Hall street.
WABASH GIVES LAND TO CITY
Ends Litigation Which Started la the
Pays, of tha Receiver
ship.
Several years ago the city desired to open
Sixteenth avenue between Main and Third
streets and began proceedings to condemn
property owned by Mrs. M. F. Rohrer and
the Wabash railroad. Mr. Rohrer wa not
satisfied with the award made by the ap
praisers and consldeable litigation fol
lowed. The then management of the
Wabash railroad also declined to accept the
award of the appraisers and the case was
appealed to tha district court.
After more or less litigation the city
finally affected a compromise with Mrs.
Rohrer, but the proceedings to secure the
condemnation of tie Wabash ' railroad's
property have never been determined. The
city was ordered to pay the railroad about
HO0 for Its strip of fifty feet that was
needed for the opening of the thoroughfare,
but the city considered this amount exces
sive, while the railroad, on the other hand,
demanded more.
No steps in the matter have been taken
by the city authorities for some time and
In fact had almost been , forgotten, ' the
papers having been pigeonholed for so
long, when yesterday Mayor Morgan re
ceived a communication from W. II. Klud
ge tt, general counsel for the Wabash rail
road, enclosing a deed to the city of the
property required to complete the opening
of the avenue for the nominal consideration
of II.
This unlooked-for action cm the part of
the railroad company not .only ends the liti
gation, but evidences a desire on the part
of the new management for more cordial
relations between the city and the railroad
company than existed at the time the rail
road was In the hands of a receiver.
This piece of property was absolutely es
sential for the complete opening of Six
teenth avenue between Main and Third
street, and the railroad could, had it been
so disposed, forced the city to pay a good
big round sum for it. The unsolicited ac
tion on the part of the railroad in deeding
the strip free of cost to the city Is most
gratifying to Mayor Morgan and other city
officials and will do much to establish an
"entente cordlale" between the municipality
and the railroad. A suitable acknowledg
ment of the generous gift o,the railroad
will be duly sent to General Counsel Blod
gett by Mayor Morgan and the city coun
cil. Plumbing and Heating. Blxby & Son.
ASKS FISCAL REFORM
(Continued from First Page.)
vert our industries, exclude our manufac
turers and limit the International play of
supply and demand. There has been a de
velopment of which Cobden and his con
temporaries never dreamed the develop
ment of the trust system under protection.
The phenomenon la so new that I dare
scaree venture to prophesy what develop
ment It is likely to take, but you mar
be abaolutely sure that In the alliance of
trusts and tariffs there is a danger to
the capital and enterprise of this country
which acts and reacts not merely upon the
capitalist, for he Is at llbertv to go to
those regions where his Industry will be
looked after,. but It will fall with Its heav
iest weight upon the artisan and the labor
classes which are Incapable of protecting
their interests against such a calamity.
But if I have rightly described the
dangers and evils we suffer you are en
titled to ask whether I know of a cure.
My answer will be disappointing. I know
of no cure, but I do know of a palliation.
The 111 has gone too far. You will not
get the great commercial nations of the
world to abandon protection. I fear that
you will not get the great self-governing
colonies to retrace the steps which we
without remonstrance permitted them to
take.
I am here, therefore, to recommend a
palliation which I believe to be still pos
sible. We have got to deal with a world
where International commercial relations
are regulated entirely by treaty.
British Position la Foolish.
Is It commonsense that we, ths greatest
commercial nation, should come forward
end say. "We want to arrange treaties with
you, but we have nothing to give you, noth
ing to withhold from you. We throw our-ti-..t
upon your mercy and consideration.
Pleate remember how good we are to your
commerce, how we throw no impediment in
its way and how we do all we can for you
and please don't forget us when you are
making your next treaty?" (Laughter.)
Are the negotiations between nation
which have to deal with duties upon manu
factured goods different from other nego
tiations curried on for other purposes? Did
tiny man ever hear of successful negotia
tions without a nation having something ti
give which in case of necessity it might
withhold?
My fundamental and essential request to
you tonight, to which the rest of my speech
Is subsluiary and accidental. Is that the
people of this country should give lo Its
government that freedom of negotiation of
which we have been deprived, not by torce
of circumstances or by pressure of foreign
powers, but by something 1 can only de
scribe as our own pedantry and selt-con-oolt.
Proceeding to deal with tha question of
how the freedom he desired was to be used
Mr. Balfour thought that the queatlon was
rather unreasonable. No minister could say
how the 'navy was going to be used in a
few year hence one can only say it Is
necessary to have a great navy in case of
need. He continued:
Should Hart Weapons nt Hand.
In my Judgment It is equally necessary
thut this country should have Its command
of those Instruments of negotiation fur
which 1 sm pleading. The German states
Illustrate how a fiscal union had preceded
and strengthened a political union, but as
far aa our colonies are concerned wa hnva
been content to see fiscal divisions growing
up which no man of solier Judgment can
contemplate without disquiet.
A most Important and difficult branch of
tho problem Is that of taxation, though the
speakor believed that the evils of the taxa
tion of food had been exaggerated beyond
what reason and logic, justified. Still he
thought - that public opinion was not yet
ripe for the taxation of food. Therefore, as
an advisor of a great party, he was bound
to tell them plainly that It was outalde the
limits of practical politics. Ha was not
anticipating a general taiift war, but he
thought "we might Inform any foreign
country that we thought was treating u
with outrageous unfairness that unless they
modified their policy we should take cer
tain steps with regard to certain articles
exported by them."
Concerning the question as to whether it
was Intended to reverse the verdict of the
great case of free trsde against protection
of 184. his answer was that the contro
versy of 1846 wa of no Interest to the pres
ent generation and was utterly Inappro
priate to, 1SCS. He said:
Our rrandfathers fiught the battle in
view of tha actual situation. I ask the
nation today to follow their examnla and
not be misled by musty debates. The sec
ond question Is. "Do you desire to reverse
and alter ths fundamental fiscal tradition
nhlch has prevslled for two generations?"
My answer la. "Yes. I do." (Loud cheers.)
