NO TAXES ron NEW INDUSTRIES
Commercial Club Asks Council to Re-
enact Ordfnance

Commercial Club Asks Council to Re-
enact Ordinance.
The Commercial club at It's meeting last
night discussed at considerable length the
matter of renting city taxes for fve
years on new industries locating In Coun-
Gil Bluffs. The club takes the position
that this remission OF taxes Is one of the
inducements which it can offer to out
side capital to invest here, and the dis
cussion last night was prompted by the
recent action of the city council repeating
the ordinance giving It the right to make
such remission. Councilman Younkerman,
who was present, explained that the re-
pealing of the ordinance did not act as an
estoppel to the council granting such re-
mission OF taxes to new enterprises.
Protest was made against the city coun-
ell refusing to remit the taxes for the
five-year period on the new Metzger bakery
plant. and on motion of H. w. Binder
the secretary was instructed to request the
city council to rescind its former action
and grant the remission. Binders motion
was seconded by Mayor Macrae, who at
the time the city council acted insisted
that the Metzger company was as equally
entitled to have its taxes RENTED as was
G. Geise on his new cereal plant.
Mayor Macrae seized the opportunity to
cali to task the members of the CONNER
cial club who had signed a petition ask
ing the council to take a 100000 valuation
as the basis for new franchise and rate
schedule for the water works company.
'If the Commercial club wants to take
an active part in city affairs It should
have a committee attend the meetings OF
Abe city council. so that It would then
know what was going on. You business
men who signed that petition were and
are absolutely ignorant on the subject

ton. By so doing. however, you impede

was allowed to pass without response.

NONPARE1L CONTRACT Held coon


Judge wheeler Says, However, In
Junction IL Not Proper Action.
Judge Wheeler IN the district court yes
teriay, handed down his decision In the
suit brought by the New Nonpareil COM
pany to restrain the Board Of Supervisors
Of Pottawattamie county from entering
into the contract with Morehouse q Co.
for furnishing the county offices with
printed supplies blank books. etc, sus-
tanning the Nonpareil contract. The suit
arose from the fact that the Supervisors
at the January session awarded the con-
tract to the New Nonparell company at
the same prices which had prevailed for
several years previous, without inviting
bids from other firms, and then, when this
action led TO criticism and protests from
taxpayers and others. a few days later
rescinded it's action. advertised for bids
and awarded the contract to Morehouse
& Co. at prices ranging from 80 to 80 per
cent lower than the county had for several
years been paying the New Nonparen COM
pany.
In his decision Judge Wheeler held that
the contract awarded the New Nonpareil
company was binding and in the event Of
the Board Of Supervisors failed to fulhll
It the New Nonpareil company had a
plain, speedy and adequate remedy at
law" At the same time the court held
that the plaintiff company had no standing
in a court Of equity and accordingly dis
solved the temporary injunction secured
by the New Nonpareil company, leaving
the latter it's remedy by a law action for
damaRea
Members Of the Board of Supervisors,
when asked yesterday afternoon II they
intended standing by the contract with
Morehouse & Co., declined to make any
statement beyond that they had not given
the matter any consideration, as they had
not been notified Of the courts decision.
County Attorney Hess said that according
TO Judge Wheelers ruling the board could
go ahead with the contract with Morehouse
q Co., the injunction having been dissolved,
and the New Nonpareil company, II 1t saw
IT. could bring suit for damages against
Pottawattamie county for failure Of the
board to fulfill the contract awarded It, in
which event 1t would be for a jury to de-
termine how much the company would be
entitled to recover.
Simon McGrew, jr., who was indicted on
a charge of forging the name of Paul Glbo
to check for t1320 on a Nicola bank, which
Dick Winchester Is alleged to have passed
upon William Kenneally, a saloon keeper
Of that town, was put on trial in the dis
trict court yesterday. McGrew denied hav-
ing written the check or received any Of
the money and the state being unable to
show that he had forged Gilbo's name to
the paper. the court directed verdict for
the defendant. The second indictment
against McGrew, arising out Of the same
transaction, was dismissed by the county
attorney.

DEATH EVIDENTLY DUE TO ACCIDENT
HAD Conducted Newspapers at Column
bus and Campbell and was Also
Well Known in Omaha and
Out I'm state.

F. II. Gilmore of Campbell, Neb., was
found dead in a room at the Kiel hotel
early yesterday morning Death was due
TO asphyxiation from gas which had es-
capped from an open Jet in the room. The
night clerk noticed the odor OF gas in the
corridor and traced It to Gilmore's room,
the door of which was locked. The door
Of the room was forced and Gilmore was
found to be dead In bed. He was I'M
dressed and death had come while the man
was asleep. II is believed that Gilmore ao-
cidentally turned the stopcock after ex-
tinguishing the light before retiring to bed.
Gilmore registered at the hotel Tuesday
night as from ''The city" From papers
found in his pockets It was at first sup
posed he was from Bladen, Neb., as he
had two meal tickets from a restaurant
in that town. and It was not until late in
tho afternoon that he was Identified.
The Identification was made by Mrs
w. E Myers OF 5A Mill street, this city,
a sister OF the dead man, who first learned
Of his death through the afternoon papers.
From her It was learned that Gilmore came
here to visit his mother who had been IN
local hospital, suffering from a fractured
limb, but had sufficiently recovered to be
removed to the home Of her daughter, Mrs.
Myers. Gilmore spent the evening with
them, but declined an invitation to stop
over night, saying he would go to the ho-
tel. Mrs. Myers supposed her brother had
returned to Campbell in the morning until
on reading An evening paper she learned
Of his death at the hotel
Mrs. Myers said she was confident that
his death was purely accidental. Gilmore
was - years Of age and leaves a wife and
two children at Campbell. A brother lives
at Friend, Neb. Coroner Treynor ordered
the body removed to Cutters undertaking
rooms and decided that an inquest was
unnecessary,
Mr. Gilmore was a newspaper man and
had a good standing among hts friends,
many Of whom he had in Omaha. He once
conducted a paper at Columbus and re-
Gently at Campbell
