The Guenon theory of judging cows,
says the Farm and Garden, is either
true or false; for it cannot be both.
Surely, If the d%elineations are that a COW
will give a certain quantity of milk for a
given length of time the system is com
plete if the results are in accordance
with the claim. We are in the predica-

marks in high favor, and yet dare not
affirm that their best COWS always have
he most perfect e%scutcheons. If the
theory is correct it enables any person
not to be relied upon there should be
no more nonsense about it.

What a Small Farmer Can Do
A few days ago we were on an eighty
acre farm in Central Illinois. The own
er has half the farm in grass, has several
half and three quarter Percheron colts
and young mares; all of which he has
reared; has a fair stock of cattle, and is
justly proud of his Poland China pigs.
for which he finds a good demand from
the farmers in the vicinity, for use a.
breeding sto *. TIL ere is no shadow OF
doubt that he makes more money, does
not have to work so hard, and enjoys
his work more than he would if he fol-
owed Che example of his neighbors and
kept nearly all of his land in Indian
corn. Probably forty acres will be add
ed to the farm, this being all that is de-
sired. Lack OF feuces on the farm is
often a serious obstacle to stock raising.
Where there are division fen:es, it
seems certain that, in a majority of
Eases. it will paw better. even on COM

Our New Loan and Improvement Co

our NOW bouh anu Improvement w.
Investigation into the matter convinces
us that n of the most equitable, reason
able and feasible plans of building houses
is that proposed and in operation by the
Mercantile Loan, Trust ana Improve
mcnt company of this city. BY invest
ing in shares in this institution, which is
backed by some of our best and most re-
liable business men, it becomes possible
and comparatively easy for a man of
moderate means to secure a comfortable
home for himself and family. In taking
a certain number of shares, at a certain
monthly payment, in a few years a man
can own a house of his W for about the
same as he pays monthly for rent. We
believe the Mercantile Loan and Trust
company, by organizing and opening up
for business, have filed a long felt
want in Council Bluffs. Their plans and
system of loans will bear the most care
full scrutiny and examination, and we
have no hesitancy in pronouncing them
reasonable and equitable, and backed by
gentlemen of honor and integrity. AS
the company exists it becomes at once an
institution of value and credit to our city
and those who desire homes. Their pres
ident is Il. A. Kirkland; vice president,
Judge Peake; secretary, l, r. Berry;

Nellie Driscoll, who has sued the Chi.
cago, Milwaukee g. st. Paul railroad

doubtless go the United States district
court.
The BEE has been congratulated by
many for its giving voice to those
owning homes along the creek, and are
unable to meet the peremptory order OF
the council to fill adjoining streets at
their own expense. The official organ
of the city council, which has been
given that position, not because Of its
Importance or circulation, but because it
is democratic, and needing the crumbs
from the table, z~ealously urges these
food sufferers to lift the extra burden,
and takes the side Of the rich and power
full against the poor and humble. In
another column appears another protest.
Seeing that the city council has ordered
Col. Cochran's communication printed at
the city's expense, because he is rich
and abundantly able to pay his share of
the cost Of filling, the Query naturally
arises why the council will not order
some communications on the other side,
from the poorer citizens, printed in the
efficient organ at the city's expense, 80
that both sides may be treated alike.
There are many whisperings Of warn
ing that citizens should be on the look
out, as the scheme of giving up Union
avenue to the Union Pacific is being
worked quietly, but with a show Of being
successful, and hat the action will fall
upon the people like a thunder clap upon
a sleeping innocent. All this may not be
true, but the extent of the circulation,
and the readiness with which people be.
lieve the rumors, show how little conf.
dence the people at large have in the
local manipulators of the Union Pacific
interests and how ready the people arc
to believe that the sly workers will dc
anything which their monopolizing mas
ter bids them, even if it involve a sacri
fee of the peoples rights. 1t does wei
enough for such men to pirate upor
"bogus jewelry," corruptions, etc. Thu
expressions up and down the streets SHOW
that they themselves have not, even by
a long residence here, succeeded in gain
ing the confidence of the people, ant
they above allothers are distrusted.

Council BLUFFS, June 81.
To the Editor OF TnH BKx.
We notice in yesterdays copy
of your paper the letter Of Col.
A. Cochran, commencing the city
council for their action in pass
ing ali ordinance to have MINISTER and
other streets filed TO grade and taxing
the cost to the owners of the property
adjacent to such improvement, express
ing his willingness to pay fright over the
counter for such improvement" We
doubt not that he is willing to have the
streets graded and that he can pay his
portion without missing it, but it is a
great deal easier for u man worth a mil
lion of dollars and no family to support
to be brim full of enterprise and so gen
erous hearted than it is for u man with a
family to support hat has spent his life
at hard work to get for himself u small
home and pay taxes on that little
home for years without grumbling, to
grade the streets all over the city
and then have the city, after turning all
the filthy sewerage into Indian creek an6
then dam it up with culverts, and thu,
cause it to flood over his little property,
and take all, and in some cases more
than they could possibly command, t.
repair the damages. Under such cir
cumstances would it not BIO better for the
city to lend a helping hand than to heal
. tax on such people, and to sell out theil
homes to some land and lot speculator
especially so when it is not altogethel
clear that the city is not liable for tn,
damages suffered by these people fol

Death Of Mrs. Ferguson.


Many in this city are saddened by the
announcement of the death of Mrs.
George w. Ferguson, wife of the we'll
known proprietor of the Pacific house.
Mrs. Ferguson's maiden name was Elvira
s. Berham, and she was born in Clinton,
N. Y, September Is, 1888. She was
married to Mr.. Ferguson at Sharon, VT,
December 26, 1852, and with her hus-
band came to Iowa in 1862, settling in
Dubuque, from which place they moved
to Council Bluffs in 1876. During her
residence here she has won many friends,
and has shown such womanly traits OF
character as to win the esteem and res
pect Of the entire community. Her ill
ness has been of about three months
duration, and her condition has been such
until within a few days that there was
hope felt of her final recovery,
but within that time she has so rapidly
weakened that it became evident she
must go, and still when the last really
anne it was a sad shock, even with thi:
warning. Besides the husband, upon
whom the burden of sorrow falls with
especial weight, she leaves one son

known, he being associated with hi

arranged for, and the time viii be an
nounced hereafter, it depending some
what upon the wishes and plans Of rola
tives in the east. Her sister, Mrs. Laur'
S. Taylor, of Derry, N. H., has already
telegraphed that she will be here, ano
others are expected. The family hav'
the sincerest sympathy of many hearts il
this community, and father and son ma,
rest assured that many friends feel tina
the loss is to no little extent theirs as vel
as that of those Of the immediate famil!

GAM BETA.

Leon Gambetta, ex-President OF the
French Chamber of Deputies and ex-
Premier, was born October 30, 1888, at
CahOrs, so that he was but little past Al
years of age when he met his untimely
death. He studied law and was admitted
to the Paris bar i'm 1850. He took a
prominent part in politics in 1868, but
attained no especial distinction as orator
or politician until 1868, when his oppor-
tunity came in the famous Delecluze
trial. Delecluze, who was the editor of
lie Reveil,w with some others arrested
and brought to trial for exciting seditiOn
Their particular Offense was In assisting
to raise subscription for the erection
of monument to Bandin, who was kill
ed in 1851, while forcibly resisting the
coup d'etat. In his speech for the defense
Gambetta in bOldness and incisiyeness
excelled all his associate counsel, and
by it placed himself in the front ranks
of the radicals. In 1869 he was returned
10 the Chamber of Deputies from both
Paris and Marseilles, being chosen as an
'irrecOnciable." A disease of the eyes
prevented his taking his seat as deputy
until a short time before the surrender
of Sedan. Upon receiving news of the
surrender, he offered decree of de
cheance in the Chambers, then proclaim
ed the Republic from the steps of the
Legislative chamber, and with his Re-
publican associates adjourned to the
Hotel de Vile, where the provisional
government, he becoming the Minister
of the Interior, was formed. He remain
ed some time in Paris after 1T was In
vested by the Germans, and then con-
trived to escape in balloon. and Joined
his colleagues at Tours. He was en-
trusted with the control of the war de-
partment. He assumed unlimited power
and made every effort to stir up the prov
inces Ia defense of Paris. He preached
war 70 the last extremity against the
Germans, and denounced the capitulatiOn
of Metz as an act of treason on the part
of Marshal BaZaine. When National
Assembly was decided on in 1871, Gam
beta sought by a decree to give 1t an
exclusively Republican character by de-
creeing that no official OF the second en-
pire should take part in the election.
The decree was cancelled at the instiga-
tiOn of Bismark, and Gambettta resigned
from the ministry in consequence. He
was the leader of the Radicals in the
Chamber, and the violence of his senti-
ments had much to do with OccasiOning
inc I6aCClOn IIOHl ItpuUIlCduiSu WHICH
led to the retirement of Theirs from the
Presidency. Thereafter Gambetta be-
came more moderate and discreet, and
exhibited signal ability in 1877 as the
leader of the Republicans, though even
in that year he was twice prosecuted and
once condemned to imprisonment for
his utterances. He was such power
in the land, however. that when Grevy
was chosen President Of the Republic
he became President of the Chamber Of
Deputies. He was twice reelected and
subsequently for short time in the
fall and winter of 1882 Minister Of
Foreign Affairs and Premier.
