EIGHT THOUSAND EACH YEAR lie Oppose Any Farther Waste of Fand on Temporary expedi ent to Control Stream. City Auditor McAneney tins taken a firm stand against the expenditure of any more of the city' money on Indian creek ex cept such as may be needed to remove, present obstructions. The futility of wast ing the taxpayers' money on temporary Im provements, he contends, has been exem plified time and time again and In support of this contention he gives the following facts and figures: "All money spent on temporary Improve ment on Indian creek is merely tempor ising and the sooner the city meets the ex isting condition of affairs by an attempt to construct a permanent source of drainage for the water which Indian creek is i en quired In times of heavy rains to carry olf, on practical modern lines, the cheaper It will be for Council Bluffs. "Council Bluffs has been temporizing with Indian creek ever ince the city has been Incorporated, and the money expended thereon each year In attempting to keep It within bounds, and during freshets make the water run up hill, represents a sum suf ficient to build either a tunnel or a lifting pump station to give relief permanently. "To Illustrate, there has been expended directly from the city treasury in the five years ending July 1. 1903, on account of Indian creek, the sum of $IO.uOl.33. The amount paid out on account of bridges washed out (not worn out) represents an enormous sum covering the same period, and the extra expense to the streets and alley department and the sewer depart ment on account of the eccentricities of the creek, will run Into thousands of dollars. This Is only the drain from the public purse; think of what a hardship the rav ages of thl worthless stream ha worked upon the private property holders during the long period of V uselessness, and 'he menace to public health a well. "Our sewerage eystem eliminating the drainage and flood proposition altogether. Is already inadequate to the wants of our growing city. Justice to the patriotic cl'.i xons who have stayed with It, and In spite of discouraging condition similar to the aftermath of the July 5 flood with which we are now wrestling, have, by word and action, expressed confidence In the future of Council Bluffs as a city, and their be lief that a plan of permanent relief would be adopted, demands that Immediate ac tion should be taken. "The frequent overflow of Indian creek is an evil that we have always had to con tend with and in spite of the enorm'j.is sums of money expended in the last twen ty-five years In attempts to temporarily te straln It, the ravages of the creek are set ting worse all the time. "Citizens of Council Bluffs and Potta wattamie county should get together "and decide upon some permanent plan of relief. There are numerous systems of permanent, practical drainage and sewerage now In use applicable to our needs, present, and future, and at a cost that will work no hardship on anyone, rich or poor. It Is a belief that statutory authority now exists for the taking up and completing of this necessary measure. "The financial mentis will not be nard to find any moment that definite action Is taken in this direction. Certain it Is tint permanent relief of this nature will add to the value of Council Bluff property as well as farm lands affected by this creek from 25 to 100 per cent." Mr. McAneney Intends to present lls matter to the city council at Its meeting next Monday night, with the recommendi tlon that it take steps to devise some plan without further delay to solve the Indian creek problem. Poster for Fruit Show. At tho meeting of the executive commit tee of the National Horticultural congress last evening the design for an official poster, submitted by Mrs. L. F. Burtlett of this city, was accepted. The main fea ture of the poster, which was selected by the special committee consisting of , ffE PEAR, I M 1 W. p. Hughe. Charle A. Bno and i. Q. Wadsworth, Is a picture of the Auditorium building, In which the fruit exposition will be held. Thl i surrounded by a con vention dslgn, but the big red apple, which wa the conspicuous feature of the poster last year, Is missing. The commit tee decided as a matter of economy that the poeter thl year will be a one color affair. I'rof. C. A. Bliss of Ame Agricultural college, who will lecture at the fruit show, was present at the meeting last evening and addressed the committee at length on several feature which he suggested. I'rof. Bits recommended that provision be made for educational exhibits, and at bit suggestion arrangement will be made for a contest In judging exhibits by students from different state agricultural and hor ticultural colleges. The final sheets of copy for the prelim inary bulletin and premium list were sent to the printers yesterday, and It Is ex pected that the pamphlets will be ready for distribution by the end of next week. A supply of these Hat will be sent to each of the statu vice presidents of the congress for distribution In their respec tive states. So many of our customers come In and say, "dive us a pound of that 2T-cent coffee you keep talking about," and they always come back for more. We have the finest tomatoes In baskets we have had this year, only 26 cents per basket. Extra fine sweet corn at 10 cent per dosen. Nice celery at 5 cents per bunch.

THE LAST WEEK OF Ol'R 20 PER CENT DISCOUNT SALE ON OL'R EN TIRE STOCK OF UP-TO-DATE SHOES, ALL WELL KNOWN BRANDS. 23 8. MAIN ST., DUNCAN SHOE CO. COAL OX CASH IlASli ONLY Fori Healers Annonnre Dlneon tlna nnce of Credit llnalnrai. Coal for cash only, this Is the edict that Is being Issued by the several dealers In Council Bluffs. The new order of things Is to go Into effect, it Is announced, on Sep tember 1. The householder who has heretofore been In the habit of putting In his winter's supply of fuel at the com mencement of the cold weather and th"n paying for It on the installment plan will have to put down the hard cold cash at the time the dealer fills his bins or else buy a ton at a time and then pdy the spot cash for It. While the local dealers deny any combine they all practically admit that coal will be sold for cash only this winter. The credit business, they declare, has been overdone in Council Bluffs. "Many people get their full supply of winter coal early In the season and then take until the end of the next summer to pay for It while many wait until they need coal again be fore they think of paying for the last winter's supply," said n dealer yesterday. "We dealers have to pay cash for the coal and we cannot afford to watt six months or In many case nearly a year before we get our pay from our customers." The local dealers are now sending out notices of the new cash system to their custom. "Please o not ask credit," la the slogan of each one. The notices now being sent out read as follows: Denr sir: Owing to the very stringent credit rules entered Into by the mine owners. Jobbers and wholesale dealers in coal, together with the fact that to carry a large line of accounts Is a burden that we cannot longer assume, we have fully decided to sell coal for cash only, from this date. The only difference In doing business will be, we will deliver you the coal and you pay us the money at the time. Value 're ceived on both sides. We will make prices that will be attractive, or in other words, cash prices will prevail. We are thoroughly convinced that If the trade will once get Into the habit of paying as they go, they will be money ahead t the end of the year.

Scott of Omaha, one of the counsel for the Nash company In Us action against the city of Council Bluffs to restrain the Issuance of the proposed J6O9.00ti water work bonds, notified City Solicitor Kimball yesterday that he would not be prepared to submit the motion for a rehearing before Judge Wheeler In dis trict court today In the case In which the Nash company sought to compel the city council to correct the record of Its pro ceedings relative to call for the special election at which the Issuance of the bonds wa voted. Attorney Scott said he could .not make his argument until he had re ceived more of th transcript of the thort hand notes of Referee Ferguson before whom the testimony In the suit brought by the Nash company in the federal court Is being taken. The testimony requlied by Attorney Scott is that of the county audi tor. It will take a week or more to ex tend the notes asked for and then Attorney Scott will require, he stated, a week or more to complete his argument after re ceiving this transcript. This being the situation it now looks as if the Nash case will not be submitted to Judge McPherson of the I'nlted States court before he con venes the September term here. It had been expected that the taking of testimony before Referee Ferguson would be com pleted before the end of July.
