Ho rn,M that on November IS of last year tha elty council by resolution di rected City 'Solicitor Kimball and City Ki.gimer Ktnyre to take the necessary steps to compel the street railway company to do this, but ut to date, apparently, these offi cials had Sjot m.ide any move In the matter. , Mr. Jensen said he did not ask that the company bring Its tracks up to established trade all aloriK the avenue, but up to the grcde at present In use. so that the thor oughfare could be made passable. As It now Is. Mrs Jnien declared. In some places the tracks were from one to two feet be low tha existing grade and In other places they were as high as two feet above the trade.

Council Bluffs ename'ed street signs a new coat of paint, which the councilman from the First ward declared was badly needed. "1 see no reason why the street commissioner and his men could not employ their leisure time this winter when they are not work ing on the streets in painting these street signs," said Mr. Yojnkerman. The mayor said hf would see to It that the street forre would have plenty to do during lt- "leisure time," and the matter of repaint ing the street signs was permitted to drop In the waste paper basket.

The Ministerial association has decldi d to wage war on Sunday shows anil other forms of public amusement on the Sab bath. At the meeting of the association yesterday morning the committee on Sab bath observance was Instructed by unani mous vote to call the attention of the city and county authorities to the fact that theaters and other places of amusement are being run unlawfully on Sunday af ternoons and evenings In Council Bluffs, and to request these officials to put the lid on this alleged open violation of the law. The ministers raise special objection to the 5 and 10-cent picture and vaude ville shows and to the skating rinks, where children are attracted in large num bers. The fact that these places, are kept open on Sunday evenings greatly Increases the difficulty of keeping boys and gltls off the streets trie ministers say. The attention of tho association was called to this matter by a number of cl'i xens who have been aroused over the case of the three little girls who were recently before the Juvenile court and whnfe ad missions to the court brought about the arrest of two men on serious charges.

SHOULD EE GLAD TO PAY THEM Whisky Hills Derlcred ot Collect able In State of Intra M lilt Itate Allowed by Kiprrii Company. (From a Staff Correspondent.) PES MolNKS. Nov. 21. ( Special.) An echo of the old railroad land litigation In hnrthw estern Iowa came to light In the supreme court in a decision which scored a lind buyer In O'Brien county for refus ing to f.ay tax s on land he got practical!; free. The land owner, J. W. Hlshop. bought the land In 1"-S2 from the Sioux City Hallway company. A long litigation followed because of overlapping railroad claims, and finally the land went back to the government. Later, Hlshop bought the land, but refused to pay taxes for the yenrs when the title was nominally In the govt rniiient. The courl practically decides that during all this time the government merely held the land In trust for the pur chaser and anyway, having obtained his land not by his own right, but by grace of the government, "such a recipient ought to bo willing to repay 'grace for grace' and to bear cheerfully his proportionate share of the burdens ot a gracious government." Whisky llllls .Not Collectable. Tho Iowa supreme court la very strict In upholding the Iowa law which makes It Impossible to collect debts due for llque.r sales. In a case from lioona county, de cided today, wherein H.

OENKVA, Nov. 23 Count I.eo Tolstoi. by way of Switzerland, has Riven another tnessaRe to the world. At an anti-military meeting held at Hientie, when 100 Swiss and foreitn delegates were assembled, Count Tolftol's appeal to the people was read amid great enthusiasm. It had been writ ten especially for the recent peace con gress at S;ockholm and would have been greatly embarrassing on account of Its violence to the Swedish authorities, who, however, were saved by the timely strike nhlch caused a postponement of the con gress. Later it was arranged to read It at Utrlin, but the police prohibited It. Tts- terday Tolstois friends In Geneva, hav ing obtained permission, delivered his mes sage at Bienne, Tolstoi, In it appeals to the good sense of the world's peoples to refuse to serve as soldiers, either volun tarily or under pressure, even If that re fusal entails punishment. Killing by sold iers, he asserts, Is a criminal act. The message appeals, not to governments but directly to peoples and their good sense to stop growth of armies and navies. American Women Are Well Treated British Suffragette Says This is Reason They Cannot Appreciate Their Political Slavery. WASHINGTON, Nov. 23. Mrs. rhllip Snowden, wife of a liberal member of the isrltlsh Parliament and a noted suffra gette, tried to see President Taft today. Hhe failed. Protesting that she does not belong to the militant branch that made the lives of British statesmen miserable for the last few months, Mrs. Snowden left the White House announcing that she would endeavor tomorrow again to run the gauntlet that shut her off from the chief executive of the United States. Mrs. Snowden waa something of a disap pointment to the members ot the Woman's Suffrage movement here. In a lecture to night at the Masonic temple, she declared that American women could not entertain the movement seriously. This, she ex plained, was by reason of the fact that there are some 2.000,000 more men than women In this country, and that the women here are treated so well that they fall to appreciate their political slavery. In England, she said, tho women out number the men by 1,200,000 and the situa tion Is reversed.

LIVELY DEBATE ON BUDGET Lord Lanadowne limialt that Bill Contain Legislation Ippcr Honne Una Hrjrrtrd and Drfenda Itluht to Vote I poii It. IDNHON, Nov. 23. The main Interest In the historical debate today In the House of Lords on the budget centered on the Kiave ft duration oC the liberal policy v.hlch fell from Lord Loreburn, lord high chancellor In the course of an elouuont peroutlou. Deliberately pausing and ad justing his glasaes, he read slowly from a piece of paper: "It Is my opinion that It Is lmpovslbln that any liberal government can ever again btar the heavy burden of office unless It Is secured against a repetition of treat ment such us our measures have had to undergo for the last four years." This statement hud an elei tricnl effect upon the liberal members of the House of Commons, who crowded the public gal leries. Quitting the galleries they surged Into the lobhli s In a tate of excitement, under the conviction that they had heard the government's last word before the general election, that Premier AbijulUi will make a similar declaration la the House of Commons next week and that the long delayed campaign against the lords has now begun In real earnest. It was held that Lord Loreburn's state ment could only mean that no liberal leuder henceforth will accept office unless he receives a pledge from the crown that sufficient peers will be appointed on the premier's nomination to st-ruie the House of Commons against Interference by the Ilouso of Lords In financial matters. I'osltlun of the l.orda. Afler the Erl of Crewe, Lord privy seal, had formally moved the second read ing of the budget bill, without comment, Lord Lansdowne, leader of the opposition, who was so hoarse that he couid scarcely be heard, moved Its rejection. He quoted precedents to show that althoiigh th? House of Lords cjuld not amend a fin tnce bill, it had full right to discuss It and to throw it out If It so willed. lHsldts, the pnsent hill, he argued, had tacked to It, legislation furh as land taxation and In creased llcens duties, which the Ilou e of Lords already had rejs cud and w hich had been plated In the bill with a view to ousting the loids from their legitimate op. portunit of dealing with these measures. No self-respecting aecond chamber would tolerate such treatment. What he asked, was to prevent home rule from being Introduced in the f Inane ) bill. There was r.o limit to such abuses. The unionists opposed license duties be cause they were crushing In their severity, the same applied to land taxes. The peo ple, he said, not having been consulted by the lords have a clear duty not to de cree the final extinction of the bill, but to Insist that before it became law. thu country should be allowed an expression TTTTMTrn Uf BlRdDS.

Lord Loreburn replied, contending that there was nothing in the bill foreign to finance with which the House of Corn coin had the exclusive right to deal. What was embodied In the bill was not new In the United States and Germany, and was not only approved by tha pres.nc but by past Houses of Commons. Kcsldes the lord chancellor, many peers addressed the house, but Interest waned. Tho duke of Norfolk, who supported Lord Lansdowne's resolution, confessed that the lords had a serious and anxious problem to face, but that should not daunt them In performing their duty.
