NEWS OF INTEREST FROM IOWA
COUNCIL
Office, 10 Pearl
WORKMEN WANT THEIR PAY
Employe on Indian Creek Compelled to
.Discount Time Checks.
CITY COUNCIL TO TAKE THt MATTER UP
Arrangement Made by Former C lerk
Inrmnehlen Expired When He
Went Oat of Oltlre Talk ot
Special Paymaster.
The city council. It is expected, will be
called upon at Its meeting tonight to make
some provisions for the payment on Satur
day afternoons of the large number of
men employed on Indian creek. This work
la being: paid for not out of the city funda
but by money contributed by the aeveral
railroad entering Council IllufTs. While
City Clerk Zurmuehlen was In office he
made arrangements to cash all city time
checks at par, but this arrangement ended
when he retired from office.
Last Saturday the men working on the
creek besieged the city hall anxious to
secure canh for their time checks, only
to find there, was no one there to cash
them.. In order to secure money to pur
chase supplies for their families or pay
their board bills these men were forced
to cash their time check at a discount,
which they say they should not be forced
to do.
It has been suggested Hint the city ap
point a paymaster especially for the Indian
creek work and that he be required to be
at the city hall Saturday afternoons from
4 to f o'clock or such other hours as
would be most convenient for the men
working on this Job.

Sannders Has Good Sneers.
Through the efforts of Stste Senator
Saunders of this city the general assem
bly shortly before adjourning passed a bill
providing for the exemption from taxation
of the reserev funda ot fraternal Insurance
societies, me dim passed me senate last
Wednesday, but only passed the house on
Friday shortly before the adjournment of
the general assembly.
Council Bluffs was particularly Interested
n the passage of the bill, as It has en
tertained strong hopes that if the Wood
men of the World or the Royal Highland
ers decided to move out of Nebraska on
account of the taxation of their reserve
funds, they would locate in this city.
Senator Saunders succeeded In securing
the passage of every measure he Introduced
at the recent session of the general as
sembly In the Interests of Council Bluffs.
The bills in question were those trans
ferring all title the state might have in
Lakevlew park to the city of Council
Bluffs, the two bills permitting cities of
the slxe of Council Bluffs and upwards to
Issue bonds for the purchase of water
plants and providing that In the event of

Perallar Election Tangle.
Owing to the biennial elections and the
fact that the terms of office of the members
of the Board of County Supervisors are for
three years, a somewhat peculiar condi
tion exists and at the general election
this fall all five members of the board will
have to be elected, although two will not
take office until January 1. 1908.
The terms of Messrs. Brandes. Bullis
and Spencer expire January 1, 19u7. they
having held over one year owing to there
having been no election In 1906. while al
though the terms of Baker and Sets do not
expire until January 1, 1W8. their succes
sors will have to be elected this fall, as
there Is no election next year. The same
situation will present Itself two years
from now said the next general assembly
will hnve to enact another law to properly
regulate matters. This will, It Is said,
probably be done by making the terms of
the supervisors either two or four years
Instead of three years..
TF.ST OI.DIER PREFKREXCK LAW
Fellentreter Case tomes I, Before
Jndae Wheeler.
The first test here of the old soldiers'
preference law will be made today, when
Judge Wheeler will hear In district court
the application of Andi'ew Fellentreter for
an Injunction to restrain the city council
from appointing D. J. Whitaker or any
one else except himself poll tax collector.
Mr. Fellentreter, who held the position of
poll tax collector during Mayor Morgan's
admlnlstrction, was an applicant for the
position before this council, but the re
publican majority at a caucus, decided to
give the appointment to Whitaker.
It has been stated by some of the alder
men that rather than give the appointment
to Mr. Fellentreter they will elect some
other veteran of the civil war. The city
council will meet tonight and It Is likely
that the matter will be disposed of then.
Chief of Police Richmond expects to sub
mit his annual report to the council tonight
and It Is understood It will embrace a
number of suggestions for the Improvement
of the force.

has Just published an exhaustive treatise
on American law with practical suggestions
for the reform In German procedure,
which Is scheduled for the next decade.
Judge Hortmann says he found many Inno

recommends limited Imitation In Germany

LAWS MAY STILL BE VALID
Speaker Clarke Thinki Tailore of Publica
tion Will Not Invalidate Them.
SIMPLY DEFERS DATE OF TAKING EFFECT
Senator Crossley Aanonnces He Will
Be Back at the 5ext Session
with Another Primary
Election Bill.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DE8 MOINE8. April 8. (8pecial.)-lt Is
the opinion of Speaker Clarke that the laws
passed by the general assembly, which ad
journed Friday, will go into effect July 4
unless published before that time. It is his
opinion that the refusal of the papers to
publish the laws unless psid a higher rate
than the legal rate will only defer the time
when the laws shall take effect. Speaker
Clarke left last night for his home in
Adel, and before leaving expressed the
opinion that the constitution covered the
matter. The provision rercrred to Is In
section 28 of the constitution, which states
that laws shall take effect July 4
next, after their passage, but adds:
'If the general assembly shall deem any
law of special Importance, they may pro
vide that the same shall take effect by
publication In newspapers In the state."
Speaker Clarke believes that If the laws
are not published they will take effect on
July 4 anyway because of this section. At
torney General Mullen Is still considering
the matter. The legal rate Is 33H cents a
square, and the bill that passed the sen
ate, but was killed In the house, raised the
price to 60 cents a square.
Crossley Mas Another BUI.
Before leaving for his home at Wlnterset
senator James J. Crossley, the author of
two primary election bills which were
killed at the session of the legislature Just I
closed and the author of two other bills I
at former sessions, declared that he will j
be in the senate at the next session with i
another bill. Senator Crossley Is one of
the holdover senators, wnlch Insures his
return. While undecided as to the manner
In which his bill would be drawn. Senator
Crossley declares that he Is In favor of
a state-wide primary lew; for a vote on nil
public officers who are elected by the peo
ple; for a plurality selection; for the same
Judges nnd clerks as nt the election and
the primary election to bo held at the '
same plnce as the election; for a plurality
selection and providing that delegates to '
state and county conventions shall be se- !
lected from the delegates named at the I
primary. While declaring his belief In
these general provisions of the bill, Sen
ator Crossley stated that the bill that he
would offer at the next session would de
pend on the results of the election this
year ard upon what ktnd of a , bill he
thought could be gotten through. If his
bill should fall at the neTtt session Sena
tor Crossley declares that he will offer
a resolution to submit tne matter to the
people for a constitutional amendment.

Barrett Is Pleased.
Ex-State Superintendent R. C. Barrett,
who was in the city today returning to his
home at Ames, after attending the Teach
ers' Institute at Ottumwa, stated that he
was well pleased wih the results of legis
lation as far as the schools are concerned.
He Is especially well pleased at the pas
sage of the state certificate bill, which
he urged upon the legislature and the plan
for facilitating the consolidation of public
schools. ' "I found during my term of office
that there were many Instances over the
state where schools could not well follow
the country or township boundaries," said
Prof. Barrett, "and the law that Is passed
will enable the formation of districts of
greater convenience to the patrons of the
schools."

gave it up, abruptly and absolutely, and
adopted Postum Food Coffee for my hot
drink at meals.
"I began to note improvement In my con

The change proceeded gradually, but surely,
and it was a. matter of only a few weeks
before I found myself entirely relieved
the nervousness passed away, my digestive
apparatus was restored to normal efficiency
and I began to sleep, reetfully and peace
fully. "These happy conditions have continued
during all of the ( years and I am safe in
saying that I owe them entirely to Postum
Food Coffee, for when I began to drink It
I ceased to use medicines." Name given
by Postum Co., Battle Creek. Mich.
