ALLEGES THE PRICE PAID IS TOO HIGH Other Members of the Board Wrak t'p aad the Session Proves m Lively 0e, with More to Come. - I have Investigated snd found that the county printing can be done and county supplies furnished at a price on the whole of 26 per cent less than we are now paying the Nonpareil company, and I ask the board to reconsider Its action and adver tise for bids and let the contract to the lowest responsible bidder who will guaran tee that the work will be done by parties living In Council Bluffs and who run fur nish an approved bond. FELIX SETZ, . Chairman. This communication, presented at the meeting of the Board of County Super visors yesterday, Incited the antagonism of the other members, with the result that both the morning and afternoon sessions were anything but harmonkms. In fact the proverbial dove of peace took wings and flew out of the window and had not returned when the board adjourned until Monday to resume Its deliberations. When the communication from Chairman Sets, which was prompted by the criticism of the action of the board In awarding the contract for blank books and printed sup plies to the New Nonpareil at the same prices which had prevailed for several years past without advertising for bids, as the members had agreed to do this year, was read by the clerk, the members looked at one another and for a time there was complete silence. Mr. Sets asked that the communication be made of record and then the storm broke loose. Spencer Warms Cp. Chairman Sets Intimated In more or less plain language that' he had been advised that certain members of the board had been "consorting" with Manager Bender of the Nonpareil company the night before the session at which he was again awarded the contract on the basis of last year's prices. This Insinuation from the chair man aroused the Ire of Supervisor Spencer, chairman of the committee which Is said to have investigated te prices paid by other counties for blank books, printed matter and stationery supplies, and he promptly declared "that It was nobody's d d business who he associated with while he was in Council Bluffs." More or less sultry language followed, until finally the matter was dropped for the time being, only to be brought up again by Chairman Sets when the board reassembled after lunch. Calling Super visor Bullls to the chair, Mr, Sets took the floor and asked the consent of the board that his communication be entered for record of the day's proceeding. "I for one will not vote for this," snM Colonel Baker. "I look upon the chair man's communication, or whatever he calls It, aa nothing more or less than censure of the board." Falling to secure a second. Mr. Sets, after stating that he felt that the board was treating Its chairman In anything but courteous manner, resumed his place at the head of the board and the matter was then dropped. It was stated yesterday that a certain heavy taxpayer In the county had an nounced his determination to bring Injunc tion proceedings to restrain the Board of Supervisors from carrying out the con tract with the Nonpareil company on tne alleged grounds that It was contrary to public policy and will ask the court to order the board to advertise for bids. The balance of the session was spent In allowing bills. The board adjourned to Monday. W. S Hewetson, the home decorator, Is In the east studying up the new Ideas In house decorations.

TOtlN FIXING UP FENCES D'strict Attorneyship Bceominr More Entangled with the Benttorship. GOVERNOR CUMMINS ISSUES STATEMENT Kot a Candidate for Senator, bat Would Not Decline In Case Office Waa Tendered to Him Senate Elects Officers. (From a Staff Correspondent.) ' DES MOINES, Jan. 13. (Special). M. J. Tobln and Bernard Murphy, both of Vinton, reached Des Moines this -"morning. Mr. Tobin Is and has been for two years a can didate for United States attorney for the northern district of Iowa and fo rsome time it has been considered that he was aa good as .appointed and would be ac tually appointed as soon as the Iowa dele gation met In Washington to caucua. The efforts of D. C. Chase of Webster City and his friends In circulating petitions among the members of the legislature the past day or two asking Dolllver to appoln Chase brought Tobln and Murphy to Des Moines in a hurry. Both Tobln and Murphy stated at once that they would not circulate any petitions with the members of the legisla ture. They and the friends of Tobin crit icise the action of the Chase men as stir ring up factionalism In the legislature which will meet Monday. Tobln became a candidate for the position of northern dis trict attorney over two years ago when H. O. McMillan announced that he would not be a candidate for the position. Tobln'a friends now claim that Chase withdrew from the race laat year when he came out aa a candidate for state senator. Chase today has the endorsement not only of all the legislators from his own congressional district, the Tenth, but has all but one of the progressive legislators from the Fourth and claims he will have all from the Elev enth and Third. He also has three from the Fifth district, Tobln's district, two of them Senator Ecklea and Representative Arney being from Marshall county and Representative Lister being from -Grundy county. Undoubtedly Governor Cummins would rather not be elected at this session of the legislature to succeed Dolllver. The elec tion has been conceded to Dolllver by all factions, and If Cummins were to be elected now the public could hardly be persuaded but that there was a trick of some kind. About the hotel lobbies there is talk that If Dolllver refuses to promise his support to Chase for district attorney and Cummins refuses the election to the senate the Chase men will throw their strength to "Tama" James Wilson, secre tary of the Department pf Agriculture at 11 Lr1 Everv Iol 9 la. Washington, and will endeavor to get enough of the opposition to Dolllver to gether to elect Secretary Wilson to the senate. At the same time the friends of Tobln are charging that Governor Cum mins is In fact a receptive candidate for the position of senator of the United States and that at a conference at his home on West Grand avenue last Bunday he consented to take the position If It were given him. A great many unconfirmed rumors are floating about the hotels and one of these is that a conference of standpat senators was held at the Savery last night, men who are opposed to Dolllver, and that the results of the conference was an agree ment to vote for. Governor Cummins for senator an ytlme that the progressive Show enpugh votes which, combined with these standpatters, would elect Cummins. If Dolllver shows a stiff back when he renches the city the Chase men will un doubtedly endeavor to cause hint trouble. If he agreea to support Chase he will probably be re-elected senator, aa the Chase friends are progressives and the progressives are In the majority. If ha re fuses to support Chase It will become a question of what strength the Chaae men can muster In an attempt to defeat Dolll ver. In an authorised statement Governor Cummins denied persistent rumors that he and his friends expected to make a fight on Dolllver for re-election to the United States senate. He says: "I am not a can didate for election to the United States senate by the thirty-second general as sembly. I shall not be a candidate.. I shall rt do anything whatever to further or encourage any proposition looking to my eleclon by thla general assembly; but there Is one thing that I shall not say, that Is, that I would refuse the honor If It was offered me by the legislature," Democrats to Caneas. Democratic leaders of the house and sen ate have decided upon holding a caucus at which it is likely a candidate for United Statea senator will be named to be given a complimentary vote. It will probably be General James B. Weaver. Wants Lower Rate. The Beatrice Creamery company has filed a formal complaint with the railroad commissioner asking for a lower rata on cream.
