Coaaell BlafTs.
The city council completed Its work aa
a Hoard of Review last night and ap
proved the assessment of personal prop
erty aa fixed by City Assessor Hardin
after several changes of more or less Im
portance had been made. As the assess
ment of personal property now stands.
It will be about $220,000 In excess of that
of last year. Real estate, U not newly
assessed this year, the assessment of the
previous year standing.
The matter which provoked the longest
discussion was the assessment of the
sugar from the Colorado factories which
had been stored In warehouses In thlJ
city and which la now being shipped out
for distribution to eastern points. As
sessor Hardin had assessed ' the Great
Western Sugar company $35,000 and the
American Beet Sugar company 510,000.
The companies had protested against these
assessments. Both County Attorney Hess
and City Solicitor Kimball had given, their
opinions on the question, both holding that
the sugar which was really In transit
could not be taxed here. In May, 1907,
the city council, at the . request of the
warehouse owners of this city, adopted
a resolution agreeing not to tax any sugar
which might be stored here and which
was actually In transit. Two years ago
the sugar, firms paid on an assessment of
$20,000 and this spring paid on an as
sessment of $10,000.
' Grape Growers Protest.
,J. P. Hess for the Grape Growers' asso
ciation. Secretary Reed of the Commercial
club and County Attorney Hess appeared
before the board and urged that the sugar
be not assessed. J. P. Hess bald that.
unless the tax was cancelled not a pound
of sugar would be stored in Council Bluffs
next year and the warehouses would
stand empty. The sugar men would find
plenty of places to store their product
where It would not be taxed. Mr. Hess
said Des Moines a year ago was after
the storage of this sugar and waa still
after It and had promised not to tax It
Mr. Hess said that only $8,500 worth of
the sugar stored here had been sold lo
cally and upon this the companies were
willing, he believed,, to be assessed, but
not upon that which was In transit.
County Attorney Hess stated that the
sugar waa not stored here for the pur
pose of escaping taxation. ' It was stored
here because the companies did not have
the facilities for storage of such quantities
at the factories. If the council persisted
In taxing the sugar, he declared. It would
result In driving this business from Council
Bluffs to Des Moines.
Tho matter was finally adjuated by the
board deciding to assess the Great Western
company $8,000 and the American Beet com
pany $2,000. Mr. Hess said he believed
the companlea would offer no objection
to paying on this assessment even If it was
a littlo over-what' they 'had sold locally
. The assessment of the irock of the First
Natloi.al bank, which had been assessed
at $260,000. waa allowed to stand. City
Solicitor Kimball advising the board that
the bank could not claim as an offset the
government bonds which It owned.
Mr. Hardin reported that Individual
stockholders of the First National bank
claimed deductions on account of debts, aa
follows:
J. W. Perry of Pt. Louis, 1) off 250
shares; Clara B. Hart, 100 off $00 shares;
E. E. Hart 260 off $30 shares; T. G.
Turner, 100 off 100 share; F. G. Spooner,
10 off 10 shares; Emmet Tlnley, 60 off 60
shares; Frank Blank, 40 off (0 shares; G. H.
Mayne, 17 off 17 shares; E. Canning, 8 off
t shares.
Deducting these (17$ shares from -the 2,000
shares Issued will leave but 1,328 shares to
be taxed.
The board overruled the objection of the
C. Hafer Lumber company to the Increase
of Its assessment to $30,000. The new office
building of the Day & Hess company was
reduced from $9,000 to $s,000. A few other
minor charges were made.

Mrs. J. H. Shlcketans and four children,
residing at $711 West Broadway, were
found yesterday by City Physician Tutabs
to be suffering from smallpox and were
promptly quarantined. They contracted
the disease. It Is said, some time ago, but
supposed they were eufferlrg merely from
chickenpor. The children. Dr. Tubbs
learned, had been playing around with the
children of the neighborhood and It is
feared several have been exposed.
F. J. Draper, 1429 Tenth avenue was also
quarantined yesterday for smallpox.
Dr. Tubbs gave It as his opinion that
there was no fear of an epidemic of this
dlseaae In CouncU Bluffs. "While all cases
will be closely quarantine I do not believe
In quarantine so much as In vaccination.
If everybody would get vaccinated we
would havs no need of the expense and
worry of keeping half a dosen families In
quarantine and supplying provisions for
those In tha detention hospital," he said.

Unless rain or other weather conditions
interfere the fourteenth annual field meet
jt the Council Bluffs High School Athletic
association will be held Friday afternoon.
May 1, at Hustlers'" park, on Sixteenth
avenue. While tho Hustlers' park Is rather
small for a field meet, It was the only
place the boys could secure, now that the
Union Driving park Is a thing of the past
and platted Into building lets. The best
that could be marked out at the Hustlers'
park Is a one-eighth-mile track. This Is
naturally unsatisfactory for the distance
runs, as It requires so many laps.

places will be members of the team to go
to the, state meet at Des Moines and to
compete with the track teams of the Omaha
and Ashland, Neb., High schools on May
1 at ' Omaha. It Is hoped to make suf

VACANT PLACES ON THE TluKET

Loral Committee to Get

(From a 8taff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. Ia.. April 23-cSpeclal.)
There ts one more day In which candi
date who wish their names to, go on
the rrimary election ballots for June i
can fllo their papers with the secretary
of state. TonlKlU when the secretary of
state's office closed there were still many
places vacant on both the leading parties.
With the democrata there are many va
cancies in legiKlatlve districts. Tho re
publicans have most of these filled, but
there are stl'.l vacancies and It la feared
that not all the candidates will get their
papers In in time. Members of both cen
tral committees spent the day at the stule
house and telegraphed out to tho missing
districts to hurry In the petitions. It
was discovered that some of the repub
lican presidential elector candidates have
not enough signatures to their petitions
and this caused some hurry work. Clerks
in the office of the secretary of state
were kept busy during the entire day ex
amining the papers to see that they were
correct before filing them.
As a result of quite r Conclusive proof
from the state that M. E. Davis was not
drunk on the day he shot and killed hi
wife it is believed the defense of Davis
will be accidental shooting. Davis has
retained Jerry Sullivan, once democratic
nominee for governor, ' John B. Sullivan
and Walter McHenry to defend him.
John J. Hamilton, one of the republican
candidates for governor who Is running
on a prohibition platform, has been en
dorsed by the Anti-Saloon league of 'the
state. The league will , have eight or
more speakers In the field talking for re
submission of the prohibitory amendment
and In favor of Hamilton for nomination
for governor.

tirely to reading papers on various sub

The first stato convention by the thresh
ermen of Iowa was held . at the Young

clerks and employes could attend the con
vention. The convention will continue to
morrow and before adjourning an organiza
tion will be perfected. At the meeting
today committees were appointed to plan
the form of organization. It Is proposed to
keep a standing committee which will be
Instructed to ask trio next legislature for
some legislation.
The Young' Men's Christian association
of this city will sell its present building
and build new. When the present building
was erected the Idea of Young Men'
Christian association work wa far differ
ent from what It is now and the present
building Is found to be unsulted to the
purposes. It is proposed to build new, with
many rooms to1 be rented to young men
who desire a place to room. It is proposed
to make the new building a home for young
men. There Will be a restaurant feature
attached. The, 'flther Young Men'a Chris

Goodspeed Score In Trial.
ATLANTIC, Ia. April 23. (Special.) The
defense In the Goodspeed case, wherein an
action has been comenced to oust County
Attorney Goodspeed from office on - the
charge of mismanagement and malfeasance
In office, scored a great victory yesterday,
when a motion to Instruct the1 Jury was
