The New Chief and His Pets.

The news of the appointment or Charles
d. Walters to the position of chief of the fire
department was received by the tiremen Of
the various fire houses with widely varying
feelings. Those who had been most enthu-
siastic for the retention Of Templeton made
up their minds that that their time had come
and prepared to step down and out as grace
fully 1as possible. Yesterday morning Ed
Fellows, driver of No. 1 hose, rendered his
resignation, to take effect as soon as possible.
Chief Templeton notified the fire committee
that the chief-elect might begin making APP
pointments Immediately to fill vacancies, and
he would accept them, as it would facilitate
the matter of making the change. Pete
Kuykendall was reinstated as foreman of
No. 3 house and j. Cochran was promoted
from minute man" to a regular at No. 4.
Charlie Nicholson notified the chief of police
to look for another patrol driver, as he was
about to don the buttons of the fire depart
ment. with the rank of assistant CHIEF, and
would be stationed at No. 4. The chiefs
wagon will be changed from No. 3 to the
Broadway house and probably a few more
new appointments made.

Encouraging Manufacturing.


AT present there is an earnest move on
the part of the board of trade and others to
secure manufacturing enterprises here.
There are tempting inducements offered to
those desiring to get a new location in the
west. Here are numerous desirable sites,
which will be donated, and the taxes for a
long period of years will be RENTED. With
a free site and no taxes there are besides
many natural advantages for manufactures.
Such advantages need but to be presented
clearly, and considered fairly, in order to
convince any one that this is one of the
most favorable points in the west. While
some of the citizens are thus seeking to
encourage manufacturing, there are others
who need a severe scoring for their lack of
public spirit and for their short sighted
selfiShneSs.
A talk with some Of the manufacturers al
ready located here revals the fact that some
of those who should be encouraging these es-
adjustments are opposing every interest
which tends to build up these enterprises.
Here, for instance, are already located first
class boiler works. 1t would seem that
when a boiler is needed here the work would
be given to the home shops, provided that
other things were equal. Some boilers have
been recently needed, and instead of having
them made the work has been given to cas-
tern parties, and these eastern parties, in
turn, sub-let the work to other factories.
Some of these boilers on arriving here were
found to be so poorly constructed as to leak
like sleeves, and the HON man ufacturers had
to be called upon nj last TO nut them in
Shape. &c IS evident that one CAM ,ctsord
to pay even a little more for
the assurance that the work is
done right here, where, if anything should
go wrong, the responsible parties can easily
be called upon to make it right.
Council Bluffs has foundries also. One
citizen, who recently wanted an iron front
cast for his building, was informed by those
he depended upon for guidance, that these
castings could not be had except by sending
east, and it was only after it was too late
that he discovered that he could have got
them right here at home.
The water works company set recently a
worthy example for others to follow. II
needed a large new engine, and instead of
sending east for it, the contract was given to
the works here, and the boiler was also made
right here. The result is that the company
has one of the finest engines in the land, and
the work has proved much more satisfactory
than similar work done cast.
While the board of trade is turning its
energies toward securing new enterprises
here, it should devote a little of its attention
to that class Of citizens, fortunately a small
one, who are only willing to encourage such
enterprises as they themselves control.
While seeking to get new factories those
already established here should receive en-
thusiastic, generous support, and be encour-
aged in every legitimate way.

Talbot Talks.

"N
Marshal Guanella returned from Denver
yesterday afternoon with w. j. Talbot, the
alledged forger and confidence man. A long
delay was experienced in securing posses
sion of the prisoner, as a requisition for him
had been issued by the governor of Nebraska
before the marshal arrived with the Iowa
papers, an6 he had to wait until the Ne
Draska governor could be communicated
with. Talbot acknowledged his guilt as far
as the forgeries are concerned to the officer,
but said that in the other matter Canning
was as deep in the mud as he (Talbott) Is
in the mire, and said he could advance testi-
mony that would send Canning over the road
in a hurry. The marshal had q tedious wait,
and acknowledges that he was getting de-
cidedly tried before he had a chance to get
his man and come home.
In conversation with a BEF reporter last
evening Talbot freely expressed his side of
the affair. He claims that young Canning
was very anxious to get money from the old
gentleman, to enable him to skip out of the
city for Wyoming, and thus get free from
the harrassing presence of a young girl, with
whom he had been too intimate. TIL offer
was made Talbot that if he would help him
in this scheme, the two would divide the
amount, which would probably be not less
than $500. In order to get the old gentleman
to give up the money this scheme was pre-
pared: Young Canning represented that he
had a chance to make big money in the we'll
boring business, if he had the needed capital.
In order to convince the old gentleman
one bogus contract was shown him purport-
ing to be signed by a well-known Omaha
firm. IN the strength of this the old gentle
man concluded he would let the young mar
have some money to start with, but could
raise only $3.50. This was given the young
man who turned it over to Talbot. The un-
derstanding between them was that Talbot
should leave his wife and baby here, and go
with Canning to Wyoming, and then send
later for his family. Talbot having the
money, and thinking more of his family than
of Canning, concluded to let the latter look
out for himself, and so skipped out for Denver
with his wife and child. Then Canning
roared with rage, and Talbot was over
hauled at Denver. In regard to the checks
which it is claimed Talbot forged, he says he
got these checks cashed to get some money
to help Canning out, and with the belief that
when Canning got the $500 these could be
made good out of the proceeds. Such is the
story in brief.

eral parties have narrowly escaped
drowning while landing by prison

A few days ago some straw in the
rear of Mr.. Mars drugstore was dis
covered to be on fire by Mr.. Ward,
the Northern Pacific Express Agent,
and by a little well-directed effort the
danger that would have resulted to
all the wooden buildings in the block
was happily averted. The flames had
already obtained sufficient Roadway TO
leave no doubt but that the discovery
was providential. 1t is thought that
the fire was set by some who had UNI
guardedly dropped a lighted cigar
stump in the straw. The loss would
have fallen mainly on Mr.. Barnes, the
owner of the adjacent premises, whose
insurance had expired only few days
previous to the danger resulting from
somebody's carelessnesS.
Mr. L. P. Yemen has shown us . copy
Of Paley's Dictionary, published sbhles
time in the last century, which has been
an heirloom in his family several gensr-
atoms. Mis- an octave volume, some
what smaller than the standard Webster
university edition. A careful examine
ton shows that it possesses a very lin
tied vocabulary for the modern student
who has kept abreast of the progressive
spirit Of the age, but is rich in the old
expressive words that have gradually
passed into disuse. In fact, the venera-
bic volume would scarcely be an appro-
pirate occupant of the post of honor on
comfortable, in this age. when abnormal
ly sensitive people are shocked to hear a
spade called spade; but as an aid to di-
rect methods of expression it would GER
tainly far excel the latest and most ap-
proved lexicon. If all the words spelled
and defined in this venerable memento of
the past were in general use now, there
would be less pretext for those express
sions that border on profanity, and are
tolerated by people of such a cultivated
taste and refinement of disposition that
would cause them to shuddcr at the mere
sound of some of the plain Anglo-Saxon
words Of our ancestors. Mr.. Yemen will
be pleased to show the book to those
who are interested in such matters.
