HAS BEEN ON THE DOCKET FOR SIX YEARS Action Rronght Originally to . Test Blaht of Railroad Cornea ay to (intlsae Oeeapaney and lee of Avenue. The IhJjiKiion suit brought by. the Uy of Council Bluffs six years ago to restrain the l"nlon Pacific railroad from using t'nlon avenue, on which Its tracks from Ninth street and Broadway to the trans fer depot sre. will have ' to : be brought to trial at the, September term of federal court air be dismissed. Judge McPherson yesterday had the r1ik of the court serve notice to this effect upon the city solicitor. The right to occupy t'nlon avenue with Its tracks was granted to the t'nlon Pa cific by an ordinance passed June 30. 1W3. It la a question, however, whether this ordinance wns ever regularly approved by the then mayor, Thomas Bowman. The conditions of the ordinance were that thi t'nlon Pacific should construct and main tain passenger and freight depots at the Junction of t'nlon avenue and Broadway. at which waa to be received and delivered all local freight consigned to or from Council Bluffs over the t'nlon Pacific, ex cepting such freight as might be ordered by consignees or consignors to and from private warehouses, sidetracks or else where, and to operate dummy trains be tween Ninth street and Broadway and Omaha, fit and suitable to accommodate first -class travel. In December. lv9, the t'nlon raclfic having requested that it be realesed from Its requirement to operate the dummy trains, an ordinance was passed by the city council providing In consideration of a release' on the part of. the city of the t'nlon Pacific from the obligation to con tinue running its dummy trains on Union avenue the I'nlon" Pacific was to Join with the other railroads centering in Council Bluffs In constructing and maintaining a union depot. This ordinance waa ac cepted by the t'nlon Pacific, but as Is well known the t'nlon depot project was never carried out. When the suit was brought to enjoin the t'nlon Pacific , from laying another track on I'nlon avenue six years ago it waa contended that the railroad had for feited Its,, rights to the thoroughfare, but for some reason or other the suit was never pushed. At times, however, tho pending suit has been used to some extent by city councils as a club over the railroad when any matter might be. In controversy between the city and the railroad.- v It Is doubtful it the sii'.t will be prose cuted at the September term of federal ourt and. will be, it Is expected, stricken roin the docket. Dry Time at Klectlon. " The municipal, election next Monday Is to bo a dry one. The saloons are required by law. to keen closed until the colls close and by agreement of Chairmen .Hess and Hughes of the republican and democratic city central committees whisky 1 to be tabooed in the vicinity of the polling places. Heretofore It has been the custonvat both city and general elections In Council Bluffs for the central commit toes of both parties to lay In a goof slsed stock of half-pint flasks of liquor given the complimentary title of whisky. These flasks were liberally distributed amongst a certain element of voters who could not see their way to cast their ballots until refreshed with a drink. This year the firewater will be consplcu ous by Its absence, as Chairmen Hess and Hughes have attached their official signa tures to the following agreement: Aa chairman of the republican and demo cratic city central committees, on behalf of those organisations, we hereby agree that neither we nor the committees of which we are chairmen will permit or countenance the use of whisky In connec tion with the city election In Council Bluffs on March 26, 1906.

The letter Is devoid of sensational fix tures. Answering the question lis to "how money Is being used by the railroads to defeat the primary bill" the governor went Into detulls, telling how the lobby works, saying: "It SK-nds money, great sums of money, but it rarely bribes. It iiigratl.itVs Itself into the confidence of men through the respectability, the capacity and the di plomacy of its representatives." In a similar vein through five puges of typewritten manuscript the governor ex plains the workings of the lobby. As to the question in the resolution ns to "what, legislators, If any, have been tho recipients of this money?" the governor replica thai no Ingenuity of construction can torture his statement Into such a charge. As to who are the lobbyists, the governor states that the legislature Is well aware who they are und can learn their location best by consulting the hotel registers. "Proceedings of Heas.
