suggested that the city needed an audi
torium which would seat $500 OF 5000 peo-
pie, and that until IL had II could not in
vite any state political convention to be
held here He urged that Council Bluffs
could not AFFORD to lose its militia company,

DES MONIES, April 1.--(specisl Tele-
gram Late this afternoon at a committee
meeting to arrange for the coming Of the
president the latter part Of the month a
petty quarrel broke out as to who should
ride in the carriage with the president.
The president of the Commercial exchange
had invited Governor Cummins and Con-
gresham Hull to ride in the carriage.
When Mayor Brenton found this out he
was mad and proceeded to denounce the
action Of the Commercial exchange. He
insisted on his right, as chief executive OF
the city. to ride in the carriage. Some
bad blood had previously existed because
OF belief that an effort was being made to
manipulate the affair In the interests OF
Captain Hull. The committee therefore
passed a motion that the governor and
mayor ride in the carriage with the presi-
dent and other provision will be made for

dered his decision in the case OF Nelson

The Burden of Vasrancy.

Thoughtful men in other Southern States are watching with interest the ef- forts which Georgia is making to enforce its recently enacted stringent law against vagrancy. It is law which appeals to every State between the Potomac and the Rio Grande-a law which should be dupli- cated in other States if the full Derefits of the Georgia legislation are to be en- joyed by the South bill providing Tor such law has already been introduced in the Legislature of Alabama. and the press Of that and other States have only to maintain the agitation of the subject which they have strenuously begun to en- sure uniformity of action throughout the South. If Georgia remain alone in its po- sition, the curse will only be removed 10 nearby states. Citizens of those states, however. will readily impress upon thelr lawmakers the necessity for prompt ac- ton when they perceive the suc':ess or the Georgian plan In Georgia and when they come to fully comprehend what vagrancy the fruitful' mother of vice and crime tax. ing unnecessarily the police resources Of the State, but it Is a drain In every direc- ton upon thrift and responsibility. NaK- rants are supported in some way. Ire quently through mistaken charity. Ire quently through theft. In either event the shittless loafers are a drain upon pockets and the endurance of the work CTS. rendering more dif1cult the accom- plishment of productive tasks and in- creaStng the burden of taxation
