An Iowa Burglar,

Every one who witnessed the rsce

tween James Smith, a suspect, and
Detective Hartley, and who took to

fired in the streets filed with people,

officers 70 ascertain if possible, where
he became possessed of the large
amount Of iewelry he seemed to have
here in the city, and q part of which
wac obtained on his person at the
time of his arrest.
Chief Speers was in receipt of a
communication yesterday from the
chief OF police Of Council Bluffs, Ia.

found In Smiths possession and which
had been sent to Council Bluffs had
been positively identified by A. p.

OF the property which had been taken
from his store oil the evening of the

which there il nothing new. Now Mr..
Gould's opinion on the telegraph question
is of lees value, because he is interested in
preventing postal line being established.
As to its requiring experts to conduct
telegraphic business, Mr.. Gould's company
has for two months been protesting that
any one can learn telegraphy in brief
time, while the world knows that ordinary
business skill is all that is required
in Geographic direction, and ordinary me-
chanical skill in construction and mantle
nance. Beyond his dogmatic assertion
that the Government cannot operate line
as cheaply as he can, there was nothing IN
Mr.. Gould's statement. As 1t was dog
matte and unsupported by proofs, or rea'
sons based on proofs, it will not create any
sensible impression. The public will fail
to see why telegraph operator in Post.
Office may not transmit a message as well
| as in Mr.. Geuld's Office. It will decline to
believe that postal department success
fully directing mail carriage over and
through continental area unequalled for
length, number and difficulty of mail
routes cannot superintend postal telegraph
lines along those routes. OF course in the
management of speculations in Geographic
stock Mr.. Gould has decided advantage
but then in the postal telegraph there viii
be no stock to be watered.

BELL RINGING.


The New York Herald takes the same
view of the church-bell nuisance that has
been assumed by the RECORD UNION The
New York paper says that the law is
clearly with Mr.. SChultze in his raid upon
the bells, and adds that "the Courts have
repeatedly restrained the practice on the
complaint of aggrieved persons, and IN St.
Louis recently the striking of the hours at
night by church.bell was stopped by in
junction" The st. Louis Court of Appeals
tersely held that "though a number of
witnesses testified that the striking of the
hours at night did not disturb them, it
cannot be possible that the law of Mis-.
souri, is in such state that one man can
not claim at it's hands protection against a
useless sound which disturbs his repose,
because hundred other men may not in
the like situation be disturbed by it. ;"
This would seem to dispose of the defense
of the vestry of ST. Georges Church, New
York, which proposes to prove that the
majority of the neighbors of that church
do not complain of its bell, and do not
find its ringing disturbing The minority
have rights which the majority cannot by
force of numbers destroy. The New York
Times joins in the crusade against the
bells, and declares that they are useless,
more noisy than an elevated railway train,
are not part of an act of worship, and
are not to be endured simply because they
have been borne many years without COM
nlaint

TOWN IspRoVEMBNr SOCIETIES.

at several points in the Eat, during a
number of years, there have existed town
Improvement societies. Within the last
two or three years these have increased in
number, Importance and general effective
ness of work. We gre informed of no in.
stance in which they have not been of
material benefit to the community in
which operating. They are composed of
citizens who believe they owe something
to the town in which they live, and have
80 high an appreciation of their citizenship
that they gladly sacrifice some portion of
their time for the promotion of the gen.
ersl good. The aim of these associations
is to secure economy of administration and
the highest possible condition of the town
or city, in all things which contribute to
the health, morals and good government of
a community, and to especially promote
the prosperity OF the place. Obviously
these associations are non-politioal in
deed, they proceed in the work of NUM-
cipal reform upon the basis of complete
enforcement of municipal administration
from party control. Without occupying
this high position, and securing this end,
all such associations must fail. They must
base their labors upon the principle
that politics in e municipality are
secondary to all other considerations !;
that the chief purpose of municipal
organization is 20 secure the prosperity of
the people, and not to advance political
parties, reward partisans, or turn the con.
troll of affairs and the selection of munich
pal administrators over to ward managers.
Such societies are vital factors in the for
nation of public sentiment and the cOrrec.
ton of public opinion. They do not usurp
power, nor dictate TO officials but it al.
ways happens that the officials are proud
to receive the support of these associations,
and that they are generally men chosen at
the polls who represent the sentiment of
such societies. But of course these socie.
ties must be representative Of the best sen.
timent Of the community, sad therefore
cannot be close.d door nor exclusive organi-
cations, while at the same tine they must
exclude the crank element, the car ping
the oneidea men, and those with axes to
grind. They appear to be, in short, or,
carnations aiming to secure the conduct
OF municipal affairs upon business princi-
Piles, bringing TO their administration the
same skill that the successful business
manager requires to be applied to his own
concerns. In city where SO much needs
to be accomplished as in Sacramento in
the way of municipal reform and improve.
'ment. and where the thoughtful people so
readily aoquieae in all efforts to advance
the community, such an association can be
of great usefulness. There is field here
for honest work Of this kind, and it ia
gratifying TO know that thought is being
given to the matter here with view OF
perfecting such an organization as indi-
Gated.

A RomsLY ILLUsrRaTIoN

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, in recent
lecture in San Francisco, by q homely
smile illustrated in very few words the
situation in Russia to. day, where the PEG.
pie are not made parties to national coun-
ellis. Said the preacher at is the only
nation in Europe where important action
is had without consulting the popular
pulse. Russia is in the condition of a
boiler under which the engineer is coz
stantly plying the fire, but to which there
is attached no safety valve, neither is there
any cylinder to use up the steam. She
will have an explosion if she does not SUBJ
nit some control to the intelligence of the
common people, and she will be shattered
TO atoms before another generation" Any
smile employed in relation to Russia
that contains the idea of an explosion is
peculiarly apt.

Ha. GOULD AND THE POSTAL rELE-
GRAPH,

Jay Gould is another of the lecturers be.
fore the Senate Committee on Labor and
Education. Sifted down, his remarks
amount to this i: A Government telegraph
line cannot be operated as ndvantageoHsly
or economically as Mr.. Gould can operate
his lines. The Western Union will cell to
the Government if it desires to try the ex-
pertinent. The business is one demanding
experts in management and in its financial
conduct, II Ietter-carryiag was in private
hands Is would be better done than the
Government does 1t. Then Mr.. Gould

TIE REASON WY.

When Mr.. Call asked Mr.. George before
the Senate committee why it is that
Northern men refuse to come South and
occupy arabic lands that wait for them,
the Senator exposed his ignorance of Amer
lean character, and Mr.. George, in saying
he knew no reason for the declination, ex-
posed his want of practical knowledge of
human nature. 1t is evident enough to
men of everyday life, why the Northern
man does not wish to occupy the lands of
the Southern landlord-the Southerner
does not deem his tenant his social equal,
and classes the farm laborer as of the
lower order of society. In fact the white
worker on the farm in the South, whether
hired man or the proprietor, is not per-
mitted to rank socially with the Southern
gentleman. The Chicago Times very sue.
emily states the case from another point of
view, as follows "The Northern man
does not accept the Southern landlords in.
vitation to become his tenant on fertile
land at low rental, because it is not in his
life motive to be the tenant of any man,
on any land, at any rental. He prefers to
be himself landlord, even at the cost of
paying double in taxes On land which is his
own property what he would have to pay
in rent on even more fertile land which is
the property of another"

The pRoDUcrsG POWER or GOLD.

Henry Kemp, of New York, has made
an interesting calculation to show the
purchasing power of the gold dollar, by
which it is demonstrated that the product.
i've power of gold has not diminished. It
leads the Boston AdvertiSer to remark that
we have very little to fear if we keep our
currency on gold basis. But it regrets
the Congressional laws under which the
United States Treasury accepts gold but
pays in silver certificates. Mr.. Kemp
computed the price of bushel of wheat,
five barrels of -four, one barrel of mess
pork, one hundred pounds of butler, ten
pounds of cheese, fifty pounds of lard,
fifty pounds of cotton, fifty pounds of
wool, one ton of coal, fifty pounds of cof-
fee and two hundred pounds of sugar.
And this was the result
