As had been anticipated. Mayor Macrae
returned to the city council at Ita meet
Ins last night tlie resolution adopted July
1 calling. upon Charles M. Nicholson not
to assume the duties of chief of the lire
department and not to Interfere with the
property of the city or the management
of the department without his onVlal sig
nature. Mayor Macrae communication
to the council giving hie reasons for veto
ing the resolution follows:
I herewith return the resolution passed
July 1 Instructing the marshal and city
attorney to notify Chief Nicholson of the
fire department not to Interfere with olty
property, etc I refuse to sign same after
careful consideration, for many reasons,
among them the following:
1. The Iowa laws authorise the mayor
to appoint a police and fire commission,
who shall have power over these depart
ments. See law.
t. In accordance with above law I have
by said authority appointed said commis
sion. t. The names of said commission were
"ported to and Indorsed by your honorable
Vijr.
4. District Judge Wheeler having dls
tolved an injunction which asked the Fo
.loe and Fire commission be restrained
'roin further action, and whereas said
ludge decided that It was not In his power
:o restrain said hoard until the courts
hould decide Its unconstitutionality;
Therefore, I am of the opinion that the
llty council of Council Bluffs, la., has no
lower whatever In this matter and that
It has overstepped Its rights and privi
leges In passing the attached resolution.
An expression from this body Is in or
der, but legal Instructions to the city
attorney or marshal are absurd and un
warranted. , Councilman Smith moved to pass the
resolution over the veto and the mayor
refused to put the motion, declaring that
the city council had nothing whatsoever
to do with the acts of the Fire and Police
commission. Councilman Smith then
called for a roll call by the clerk and the
resolution was passed by the votes of the
tlx republican councllmen. Councilman
Maloney refused to vote and Councilman
Younkerman promptly followed his lead.
Precipitates Warm Debate.
The controversy between the city coun
cil and the' Fire and Police commission
over the discharge of R. W. Jones from
the position of fire chief and the appoint
ment of Charles M. Nlobolson by the com
mission was responsible for a large dis
play of oratorical pyrotechnics on the
part of the mayor and a decidedly heated
tilt between him and Councilman Wal
lace, who warmly resented some of the
remarks from the chief executive.
The ball was started rolling when Clerk
Sapp read the communication from the
Fire and Police commission to tho city
council announcing that Robert W. Jones
had been discharged permanently for
cause and that Charles M. Nicholson had
been appointed chief of the fire department.
Councilman Wallace moved that the com
runlcatlon be referred back to tho com
mission for an explanation as to the
causes! leading to Jones' discharge. Mayor
Macrae refused to put the motion, saying:
"It's none of your business what the cause
was. I appointed the commission under
'.h authority Invested In me by the law.
and I am ready to stand back of them In
all they do. An Insult, which the return
ing of this communication would be, to the
commission la an Insult to me "
Councilman Wallace appealed from the
chair and after Councilman Younkerman
had seised the opportunity to remark, "I
think It Is entirely out of order," Mayor
Macrae took the floor again, saying:
"As far as this controversy Is concerned
I have up to this not taken any part.
There has, however, been on the part of
certain members of this council a disposi
tion to antagonise the commission from
the very start. There has been a narrow
minded. Irritating disposition on the part
of these councllmen to block all the acts
of the commission. The law Is explicit.
This council has absolutely nothing what
soever to do with the commission. It mar
be right and It may be wrong, but It Is
no matter for the council to Interfere In,"
he declared with considerable warmth, di
recting his remarks principally to Council
man Wallace.
At this point Councilman Maloney stated
that he refused to voto any further In the ,
matter of the Fire and Police commission
nd Councilman Ybunkerman, taking his
sue from the councilman from the Second
ward, made a similar statement.
Dove Cesses at Last.
Councilman Wallace then succeeded in I
holding the rostrum for a few moments,
during which, he asuerted that Jones had
been boosted out of lira position without I
a scintilla of evidence to support the
charges brought agatnBt him, and he suw
o reason why the communication should
tot be referred for an explanation, as to
h causes leading to Jones' discharge.
"This notice was merely sent the council ,
la an act of courtesy," Interrupted the
nay or.
"Yes, the commission has shown a great
lot of courtray to this council, I don't
think," remarked Councilman Fleming.
"This motion Is a dirty Insult to me and
to the commission. I know who Is back
if all this. They are particular banker
n4 a man not far from the sheriff's offlcs.
They're back of the whole thing," con
.Inued the mayor, with Increasing warmth
as he brought his fist down on his desk
to lend emphasis to bis words.
After more or leas heated discussion a
sompromlse was effected. Councllmen Wal
lace consented to the placing of the com
munication en Ole and then moving that
the commission be requested to give a
fuller explanation of the causes for which
iones was discharged. This motion was
lost, as some of the republican councllmen
deemed It useless to make the request.

CAPITALIZATION TOO HIGH
Governor Cummin Take Isiae with
President BooBerelt.
START ON WORK OF ASSESSMENT
Msnslsrtarrrs of Stock Pood Attack
the Iowa Fan, Food Law on
Gronnd of Unconstitu
tionality. (From a Btaff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. July . (Special Tele
gram.) Governor Cummins took Issue with
President Roosevelt on tne valuation of
railroads today and Intimated that the
president's statement at Indianapolis that
the railroads are worth what they are
capitalised at was largely for the purpose
of alluytng the fears of the stockholders
of the railroads at the president's anti
corporation crusnde.
It all came out at the hearing by the
executive council to the railroads prepara
tory to fixing the assessment of the rail
road property of Iowa. Mr. Baldwin, for
the Burlington, .had taken some time In
explaining there were reasons not shown
In the Burlington'! report why Its assess
ment should not be raised. Governor Cum
mins explained to him that there were this
year two new members of the council and
they would be glad to have him go deeper
Into questions of the valuation of railroads
Mr. Baldwin demurred, claiming that his
opinion on that was of no value.
. "But the president has said that the
railroads are worth what they are capital
ized at." said the governor, "and according
to the Interstots Commerce commission's
report the capitalisation of the railroads
Is nesrly 14,000,000,000 On that basis, giving
Iowa the per cent Its mileage entitles It
to, the railroads In Iowa should be assessed
at about 170.000 a mile, or about three
times as much as this council has been
assessing them at. We would be very glad,
therefore, if some of the railroad repre
sentatives here would go Into this ques
tion of railroad valuation."
Mr. Baldwin asked the governor If he
really thought the president knew what
he was 'talking about. The governor re
sponded In the negative, and said that he
thought the railroad representatives pres
ent were more competent to speak on ths
subject, as they had posted themselves,
and intimated that the president's Indian
apolis speech wos probably for the pur
pose of allaying the fears of railroad
stockholders with his antl-corporatlon
crusade.
The council made only beginning In
the matter today and the hearings will
continue two days yet.
Mr. Baldwin for the Burlington claimed
that the report of the Interstate Commerce
commission that there is something over
13,800,000,000 of railroad capital stock was
way off. He said It had been figured out
that In this report capital stock had been
figured twice to the extent of !, 800,000, 000
and that there were other mistakes. He
said the report would show that the rail
roads are capitalized at 106,000 a mile and
he maintained that they wero not actually
capitalised at (00,000 a mile.
Governor Cummins said that speaking
for himself and not for the other members
of the council, he had always thought that
the railroads were . capitalised at much
more than they were worth. Mr. Baldwin
promised to speak later to the council on
the point- '' "
J. C. Davis for the Northwestern, spoke
at some length on tho question of railroad
values and also attacked the Interstate
Commerce commission report of capitali
sation. He compared the fluctuation of
railroad assessments and land assessments
of Iowa and maintained that during the
last three years the railroad assessments
have gone up 10 per cent, and the land as
sessments only s-26 of 1 per cent, and that
since 1801 railroad assessments have gone
up over 33 per cent and land assessments
only 15 per cent.

COVEREDHIS BODY
Itched Constantly Scratched Until
Blood Flowed Suffered 10 Years
Doctors and Medicines Were
Fruitless Tries Cuticura and Is
Completely Cured
BY THREE BOXES OF
. CUTICURA OINTMENT
"When I was about nine vears old
gmail sores appeared on each of my
lower limbs. I scratched them with a
Drill pin ana
shortly afterwards
both of those limbs
became so sore that
1 could scarcely
walk. When I had
been suffering for
about a month the
ores began to heal,
but small scaly
eruptions appeared
whers the sores had
been. From that
time onward I was
troubled by such
severe itching that,
until I became
fcorustomed to it. I would scratch the
sores until the blood began to flow.
This would stop the Itching for a few
days; but scaly places would appear
again and the itching would accompany
them. After I sufTred about ten years
I made a renewed effort to effect a cure.
The eruptions by this time had appeared
on every part of my body except my
face ana hands. The best doctor in my
native oounty advised me to use arsenio
in small doses and a salve. I then ued
to bathe the sores in a mixture which
fave almost intolerable pain. In S'liii
ion I used other remedies, such as iodine,
sulphur, aino salve, 's Salve,
Ointment, and In fact I was con
tinually giving some remedy a fair trial,
never using less than one or two boxes or
bottles. All this was fruit lens. Finally
my hair began to fall out and I was rapidly
becoming bald. I usxd 's ,
but it did no good. A few months after,
having used almost everything else, I
thought 1 would try Cuticura Ointment,
having previously used Cutinura Soap
and being pleased with it. After using
three boxes 1 was completely cured,
and my hair was restored, after fourteen
years of suffering and an expenditure of
at least I'iO to $i0 in vainly endeavoring
to find a cure. I shall lie glad to write
to any one who may be inlereHted in
mr cure. B. Hiram Mattingly, Ver

- The Reliable Specialists
Heed the Danger Signals
Hronchltt may be termed an ally of Catarrh or an exUnslon of this dis
ease to the bronchial tubes, causing an Inflamed, weakened, relaxed or diseas
ed condition of the mucous membrane lining the bronchial tubes. The same
mucous memhtane thst lines the nose and throat, which is susceptible to a Ca
tarrhal condition, also extends downward and lines the bronchial tubes, mak
ing n continuous passu g-w ay to th lungs. It 1b a smooth, delicate tlsnue,
easily affectfd and accessible to disease, as It covers the entire respiratory
orgnns, Including the nasal passages, throat, bronchial tubes and lungs.
The first hymptoms exhibited are very similar to those of Chronic Ca
tarrh. The bronchial tubes are so essentlully n port of the lungs and respir
atory organs that any disease affecting ono must affect the other also. If the
tubercle biiclllt Is breathed Into the bronchial tubes, where Inflammation,
either acute or chronic, exists, It may ftnd ready lodgment and multiply with
rapid destructive effect. Healthy tissue resists the attack of the consumptive
and pneumutlo germ, but tisue weakened from an inflammation of a cold,
repeated colds or catarrhal conditions, etc., are very susceptible to diseuse and
fertile soli for the propagation of disease perms.
Do you experience stationary or wandering pains through the chest, dull
or heavy or sharp and cutting, frequently presenting the characterlstirs of In
tercostal neuralgia or pi.insyr do
side? Are yon particularly susceptible to contracting a cold on sllfht ex-
uosure, or a

sometimes with a dry, hacking or severe cough? Do you expectorate white,
stringy mucous, especially upon srising in the morning .' Is your appetite var
iable? are you losing in flesh; feel weakened, lifeless, despondent and de-
fressed? Is there a quickened pulse. Increased temperature and excited heartT
leed nature's warning as there Is danger ahead unless you secure proper
medical attention.
What can be more pltlsble than to see an emaciated wreck of humanity,
the death-marked consumptive, tottering around with withered limbs and
glassy, listless eyes, plunging toward the grave, often primarily Induced by
neglected colds or weakened by Imprudent habits.
