As an educator on tho hencflrenco of
patronizing homo Industry the public dis
tribution of prizes Friday ovculng by the
homo patronnRO bureau of the Commercial
club among tho children of tho public
schools was an unqualified and unbounded
HUCCC8S, Uoyd's theater was crowded, tho
greater part of iho audience being children
of assorted ages, variegated raiment,
sharply contrasting, but over tumultuous
decorum and voices of Indescribable shrill
ness. In their midst were many parents
mid elderly relatives, whoso presenco was
presumably intended to prcservo order, but
their proximity did not seem to overawe
tho youngsters, who seemed to realize that
It was tbelr night to howl. In tho boxes
with their ladles were Messrs, 1). T. Mount,
l'rcd Iloye, C. O, Uibcck, W. W. lllngham,
Myron D. .Knrr, Harry H. Ziruman nnd V.

V. Thomas, C3..S. H.iyward, J. IT. nurgess,
W. M. Howard, W. l Johnson and other
members of tho board of Kducatlon and City
Clerk lllgby.
Chairman K. B. AndrcwB of tho homn
patronago bureiiu' referred to tho history

has a membership of eighty-six factories
nnri which has for Its object Impressing
upon tho minds of Omaha people the neces
sity of buying the product of the factory
located at home instead of buying a similar
article manufactured olsowhere, nud by ,
this means Increasing tho number of om- I
ployes nnd famlHeo nnd tho population of
the city. Omahu Is reliant upon her com
merce, nnd commerco Is dependent upon tho
factories. There nro In this city and South
Omaha 150 factories, employing and sup
plying oiin-thlrd of the population. They
nro all growing, but enn be given much
stronger Impulse If given due consideration
by homo people Homo support of tho
factories located hero will bring other fac
tories. Homo patronago Is but another
form of patriotism nnd IIioho who follow It
aid themselves, especially if they bo prop
erty owners. Speaking of tho recent ex
hibit of tho bureau, Mr. Andrews said that
It Is estimated that during tho ten days ot
Its continuance It was visited by 80.000 peo.
plo, who were unitized nnd delighted to
boo what Omaha produces. Ho explained
how fifty prizes hud been offered to stim
ulate children of tho schools In writing
essays on tho subject of homo patronago
and closed with an expression of thanks to
teachers, principals, the superintendent, the
Hoard of Rducatlon nnd the pupils for tho
Interest they had manifested, over 10,000
essays having been prepared on that sub
ject. He Introduced General Cowin as pre
siding otllcer.
Cotrlu Miienl.H.
Oencral Cowin congratulated the commlt
teo on tho happy thought that prompted th.a
movement among tho children ot the com
mon hcuooIh and paid a tribute, to tho
schools, thn foundations of. the republic.
Ho declared that ha would not make a
speech, as ho had been told when asked
to presldo that ho would not lie required
to do that, as thcro would bo those pres
ent who could make epncches.
i:. J. Cliispi.il. chairman of tho promotion
commltteo of tho bureau, commended highly
thu surprlslugly clover work1 ot tho pupils
and read ns tumeata of tho excellence! ot
his Judgment two ot the essays submitted,
thnso of Master Ray Collin of tho Sara
toga school, and Mies Mamlo Uthcl Shrum
of tho Long school, each of which showed
careful rnourrh and nn accurate under
standing of tho advantages of patronizing
homo industries.
(3. M. Hitchcock of the World-Herald
expressed sonui dltlldence In speaking oven
to tho young peoplo present upon a subject
to which thoy had given weeks of careful
study. Patronize homo Industry is n maxim
which, like the maxims that "Virtue is Itn
own reward" and "Honesty is tho beat
policy," speaks for itself. The simple
proposition given, little else can bo said.
Knch appeals of Its own accord to every
hearer. Homo patronago Is desirable not
I nlono because It will mnlte. the city rich,
' but becniuo cities, like individuals, must
1 dovelop or degenerate. Lincoln's remarks
as to the protective tariff wore quoted
w herein he said that when you buy Iron
mils in England Amerlcann get the rails
but tho Englishman the monoy, whereas It
yon buy rails in America Americans get
tho rails and tho money, (oo. The eamn
principle applies to 'tho homo patronago
movement In Omaha. It tho west, ava Is
Itself of Its opportunities by manufacturing
and cousuuiiue Its own productions It will
soon bo as desirable a place in which to
livo ns the east.
R V. Kollogg of the News declared that
as a newcomer he was Impressed by the
meeting as ho had not 'been before with
Omaha's greatness. Ho had recently been
surprised to learn from General Manderson
that Nebraska's percentage of literacy was
higher than that of any other section of tho
United States. Ho facetiously concluded
that tho fact that a great many of thorn
camo from Ohio accounts for tho general
Intelligencei of tho people of this ntnte, add
ing that ho camo from that Htate himself.
Ho pointed out tho lmportanco ot factories
In tho upbuilding or cities nnd the wisdom
of patronizing such ns aro located In our
mldet.
Chairman Cowin excited considerable mer
riment by Introducing Edward Hosewater
as "another great editor, orator and states
man; a young man who, however, has had
great experience who has douo a great deal
toward tho upbuilding of tho city and who
1ms succeeded in building up a great news
paper without tnklng any personnl part in
politics himself."
Kiltvnril IloKiMTiitor'n Ailtlrpfm.
Mr. Itosewator referred to Teter Cooper's
enrly Invention of a self-rocker for his first
baby, which useful . artlclo ot household
economy ho provided with a patent fan for
scaring uwny 11 Ira and a mnnlc box. to lull
tho chllil to sleep. This was tho Initiatory
effort nt fostering tho Infant Industry. Tho
speaker went back 200 years to recount the
Infliction of n protective tariff In France
for the protection of the Industries of that
country, whjrh occasioned the migration of
largo numbers of skilled workmen from
England to Franco, and showed how old
was tho doctrlno of protection to homo In
dustry nnd how early people realized the
necessity of It. Ho called attention to tho
groat Industry In tho construction of rail
road Iron that has grown out ot tho require
ment of tho government that ovcry pound
of rails used In the construction of tho Union
l'aclflo should bo made In this country.
Going back In the history ot Omaha, he
said ho could recall tho tlmo when there
was no, ns ho rould recollect It, a factory
In tho city. Today moro than S0.000 peoplo
draw their sustenance directly or Indirectly
from Omaha's factories. Tho Ilco started
cue with ono editor and ono compositor,
nnd now pays over $500 a day In wages.
Tho World-Horald pays ns much, or nearly
so. Mr. Hosewater said that for reasons
not easily understood, tho wives ot many
Omaha men aro In tho habit of expondlng
largo sums nbrcad for things that could
Just as well bo bought at home, and that
tho visitors from Omaha nlono to tho Paris
exposition will expend abroad In that way
fully $100,000, while the aggregato expendi
tures of Americans abroad during tho ox
position for things that could bo purchased

For thirty years I have been
the confidential adviser of thou
ands of sufferers in all parts of the
world. I have devoted my life to
the careful study of Nervous De
bility and weaknesses of men and
women, from whatever cause. I
have made a life study of electro
therapeutic appliances and have
restored over a hundred thou
sand men and women to physical
strengtli and vigor with my world
renowned Dr. SAN DEN ELECTRIC BELT
The use of Galvanic Electricity,
!'fo$YRIGrlTED
as applied under my personal di
rection, has become universal for
the cure ol nerve, glandular, or
ganic weaknesses, rheumatism,
sciatica, lumbago, varicocele, etc.
Nature demands a certain sup
ply of natural Electricity, and if
this supply is reduced by excesses,
overwork, exposure, etc., weak
ness and debility are the results.
To repair this weakness, nature
must be paid. I pay nature by
returning to her storehouse that
which has been wasted and dis
sipatedthis is electricity which
is the very essence of life itself.
Electric Suspensory for Men; with all Belts.
Why should suffering ones hesitate to try this cure by natural means ? a cure based on nature's laws. Of
course there arc thousands who are as yet unacquainted with the value of my great discovery, and to these I
say 1 have decided for a time to allow my latest and most improved 1900 Model Ilelt to be taken on
THIRTY DAYS' TRIAL.
From this offer It h apparent that I am sincere in what I Mate. I will cure where drURS have failed,
and it is my knowledge of this fact that warrants me in offering you my Belt on 30 Days' Trial. " It cures
while you slep, and you pay when cured." Worn at night, it sends a pleasant, soothing current which you j
feel through the entire weakened organs, the suspensory attachment to the belt resting directly ovr the
prostate gland. Write for my little book, mailed free, or call.
