Since the acquisition of the water plant
by the city It Is probable that the tour
inch water main ready to be laid on Mill
atreet will not be put down. The decision
waa reached several years ago, when the
project of constructing a new plant was
' talked, not to use- anything less than six
Inches for atreet mains. ,. The 'four-Inch
?lpe waa a comprcmln to reduce the coet
o the cltlxens. who own the property
and who were obliged to pay for it, owing
to the fact that the water company had
authority to make extensions. Kinoe the
city practically owns the plant the prop
erty owners will be saved the expense of
laying the, pipe. " . .

COURTS MUSTDEFINE LAW
Attorney General Refuse! to Interpret
Moon Liquor Law.

' CJwee Immediately Into
Kffe-.
County Attorney Capell has returned
from Lp Moines, where he arwnt tm riava
In conference with Attorney Oeneral Oeorge
v-osson in relation to the effect upon the
Council Bluffs saloon men of the decision
of the supreme court holding that the Moon
law went Into effect on the date of Its
passage, April 18, low. The county attorney
did not feel like putting an Interpretation
upon the court's decision,' and tha attorney
senerai also shied.
After giving consideration tn irarr nhna
of the situation In Council Bluffs, which
is peculiar in regard to a majority of the
saloons, It was decided to place the whole
responsibility back upon the courts. Test
cases will be Instituted In the district court
at once upon an agreed stipulation of facts.
Whichever way the lower court decides
an appeal is to be taken by the losing side
iu me supreme court. County Attorney Ca
pell stated last night that the court action
would be taken today or tomorrow. The
only thing to be considered la the necessity
oi nnaing cases that will fit all of the
phases of the law and the higher court a
opinion, and cover all of the points In
volved. One of the cases will be In the n.tnr. r
contempt proceedings, and other In the
OI injunctions. Arrangements will
be made with tha court to have an ..-i.
date set for the hearing. Appeal will then
uo iaaen at once, and after that It will be
up to the attorney general to look after
the cases In the supreme court. Efforts
will be made t expedite the hearing In
the higher court, but It la Improbable that
a decision will be handed down within six
months.
County Attorney Capell said yesterday
that he felt It would have been an Injustice
to the saloon men to have put the con
struction upon the law and the decision
that appeared to be warranted, and force
at least forty of them out of business on
short notice. The decision to take the con
servative course will give them at least
time to adjust themselvea to the changing
eltuatlon. The attorney general la strong
In his belief, that every aaloonman against
whom an Injunction has been Issued since
April JB will have to retire from the busi
ness for a period ot five years or else seek
a location In another state where the laws
are more hospitable. He Is also firmly con
vinced that but twenty-nlne saloons can
now be legally licensed In Council Bluffs.

Officials Examine
. New Paving Devices
Mayor and City Engineer Go to Min
- neapolis to Study Condi-
' tions.
. Mayor Maloney and . City Engineer
Etnyre have gone to Minneapolis to make
a further inquiry concerning the use of
asphalt as a filler for the new Broadway
brick pavement. A majority of the prop
erty ownera have signified their desire to
have the aaphalt used, and both tha mayor
and city engineer were favorably Impressed
when they went to Chicago by orders of
the council 'to Investigate ltt but they
were still not satisfied. Minneapolis waa
selected as a point where some useful in
formation could be secured for the rea
son that a large section of paving was
laid there a year or two ago In which
ths aaphalt was used and where cement
was also used plentifully for the same
purpose. The thermal conditions at Min
neapolis are more nearly equal to those
in Council Bluffs, with the difference be
ing still greater in the extremes of heat
and cold. It the aaphalt stands the strain
there better than cement It will be the
means of ending tha attitude of doubt
here.
City Engineer Etnyre will have the re
sponsibility In a measure for whatever is
used and he Is particularly anxious to
avoid any mistake. It is the wish of
Mayor Maloney's life that when the new
pavement is completed, Broadway will
be one of the best paved streets In the
west. The mayor and city engineer expect
to be home tomorrow.
