'olowed by the reading of the president s
nessage In this message President Cronln
gave It ns his opinion that membership In
tho association Is too easily obtained under
tho present rules. Ho recommended that
all applications for membership hereafter
he referred to n committee, to bo reported
upon at tho ensuing convention. He recom
mended further that thero bo a uniformity
of county press associations throughout the
stato for tho purpose of maintaining ad
urtldtiR rates, especially, the rates on legal
advertisements. Ho called attention to the
death of W. I. Cotnpton. editor of the Utlea
Run, which has occurred during the last
yea r.
Upon tho conclusion of the reading of
the meeago President Cronln called Vice
President W. N. Hassler of Pawnee City
to tho chair and tho message was referred
to n committee of three.
Reports were then received from tho
legal nnd excursion committees.
Tho committee to which had been re
ferred tho president's message reported
favorably upon It with tho exception of the
recommendation relating to tho rules, in
tho opinion of tho commltteo the present
method of determining tho eligibility of
members Is sufficiently stringent.
Printer InU Discussed,
''Printer's Ink the World Around" was
tho Btibject of a very Interesting and In
structive rnper by J. W. Hulff of Norfolk.
Tho paper was most exhaustive and was
Illustrated by an exhibit of newspapers
printed In every civilized country of the
globe. This collection, which Includes nearly
200 copies, served to show the different
methods of printing In the various coun
tries and tho different systems nnd lack
of systems of handling news. Thero was a
copy of the Hounding Pillow, printed on
board tho Olympla; tho Pekln Gazette, the
Star of Hope, published In Sing Sing prison;
the l'sklmo llulletln of Alaskn and scores of
others equally Interesting. Mr. Hulff also
had exhibits to Illustrate tho electric or
tnklcss process of printing. He says It Is
his purpose to placo these nowspapers on
display in various cities of tho United
States to raise money for a foreign trip,
when ho will visit the office In which each
one of them wns printed.
The Hound Tnble, presided over by F. O.
Edgecombe of Ocncvn was a feast of reason
and a flow of soul. Tho subjects discussed
wero these: "Neighbor News; Should It
Do Paid for In Cash or Trade?;" "A Living
Subscription Price," nnd "Estimating and
Hecordlng Job Work." Those who figured
most prominently In the discussion wero
M. A. Ilrown, Kearney Hub; Hoss Ham
mond, Fremont Tribune; A. M. Church.
Napcr News; Dr. S. It. Hazee. Curtis Cpur
rlor; A. H. Leedom, Petersburg Index, nnd
W. H. Stole. Auburn Post. Tho discussions
wero characterized by sallies of wit and
much Bound sense. On tho subject of Job
work someono said ho liked to seo tho
wheels of his presses turning. Ho had
rather charge low prices nnd get all the
work ho could do than to charge high prices
and got a Job only onco In n while. There
upon Mr. Ddgocombe took tho floor to say:
"Prices of Job work should be maintained
at a standard consistent with a living profit
on every Job. I had rnthor seo my foreman
sitting Idly on n stool, smoking a cigar and
pay for tho cigar myself than to havo him
do ono stroke, of work that did not yield Its
profit."
I'rlep of Subscription.
On tho subject of tho price of subscrip
tions for a weekly newspaper much was
said In favor of both tho low and high rate,
but It seemed to bo the consensus of opinion
that no country newspaper could be Issued
profitably for less than $I.C0 a year. Many
of tho weeklies Issued In connection with
tho metropolitan dallies wero placed at a
prtco about ono-third of this, but they
could not be considered an compeltors of
the country weeklies. Tho country weekly
covered a field that tho city weekly could
not. cover, so It could safely maintnin its
subscription prlco In splto of them.
At 1:15 tho women In the nudlcnco were
excused to attend tho reception prepared
for them in a down town hotel, nnd. nfter
transacting some routine business, the dele
gates adjourned for tho day. During tho
evening tho dolegates and their wives at

luesday in tho Dally Nebraska Press,
tho newspaper to bo printed upon the
slago of tho hall during tho session
of tho convention, but when tho
ndvanco guard of tho delegates
dropped In nt the hall Tuesday morning their
progress was disputed by a wheelbarrow
load of scrap metal lying In the passage. It
was hopelessly mixed, and had to bo re
melted. As tho matter weighed nbout 1C0
pounds, the plelng of It could not havo been
an accident. Fortunately It had been
"proved" before delivery nt the hall, so the
mishap will not delay the regular Issues of

of Hcd Cloud and environs liavo formed a

Tho restaurant, which has always been a
loser financially, was reported to havo gone
behind only $2iU7 since September 1, the
date upon which the servlcos of tho steward

"Tho Jobbing trade of Omnha has contin
ued to grow rapidly." says Mr. I'tt. "The
houses havo not only Increased rapidly In
business, but a large number havo built
and others have rented larger buildings.
This has been the best year In our history
In these respects. We havo also added sev
eral new houses to our list, principally tho
John Decro Plow company. Mnrtln-Cott Hat
company, M. Splesburger Son company,
Haclno Wagon nnd Cnrrlago company nnd
tho Hyrno & Ilammor Dry Goods company.
Heretofore wo havo been somewhat de
ficient in some lines of trade, but these
new houses havo rounded up nnd completed
our Jobbing facilities. Thero are still, how
ever, splendid opportunities for sovcral
more Jobbing houses In Omaha, and they
would make ns good profits In n short time
as those we nlieady have.
"Tho results havo been excellent this year
for our manufacturing Interests. H might
be a surprise to somo people to know that

Concluding tho report soys. "Tho condi
tions that will make Omnha a great city are
the splendid railroad facilities, tho compar
ative greater distance from cempctlng cities,

J. F. Carpenter, chairman of tho club's

tho greater Omaha.

Alfred Millard, treasurer of the club, then
submitted n detailed statement, showing
the finances of the organlzntlton to bo In

"Does History Hepeat Itself?" was the
question that Judge W. D. Mcttugh was
asked to answer. The Judge began by re
lating several mirthful stories and then
becamo serious. Ho declared that In poli
tics. In religion. In art and In alt tho af
fairs of human kind there Is nlwayas a
tendency to play from one extrcmo to the
other, and It would bo well at this annual
meeting, from the point of vantage now nt
hand, lo look back and see whtch way the
pendulum Is swinging. As Indicated by the
facts related In tho secretary's report, the
movement of Omnha Is now n forward one.
"Tho great central point." said Judge
Mcllugh. "that wo see In your secretary's
report Is that this Is a period of commer
cial revival as far iia Omnha Is concerned.
Wc aro on the eve of n greater develop
ment of our natural and acquired resources,
and thero Is no reason why Omaha should
not continue tho forward movement In
definitely. We stand today looking Into n
prospect brighter thnn any that has con
fronted the people of Omaha heretofore."
KnilorncN Co in in n ii 1 1 - Spirit,
Dr. W. II. Christie responded to "Mu
nicipal Government nnd Commercialism."
Ho expressed the sentiment that tho up
building of the city could best ho promoted
by a genulno love of homo nnd perfect unity
In tho community. It wns tho duty of nil
citizens to Improve the Joys and comforts
of homo life and to constantly encourage a
feeling of brotherhood among themselves
The commercial spirit should not prevail
to the exclusion of consideration for the
home.
Or. Christie drifted Into a discussion of
municipal politics nnd urged tho club not
to give Its support to any but pure men for
public olllce.
I-'. A. Hrogan. who was asked to say some
thing nbout "Homo Investments," empha
sized tho Importance of Investing Omaha
capital in Omnha Institutions.
"We havo heurd a great deal about en
couraging eastern capitalists to Invest In
our city," sn,l the speaker, "nnd I think It
Is about time now to urge the Omaha capi
talist to invest here. Too much Omaha
money is betng diverted to other cities nnil
other territories. Knough money has been
sent out of Omnha for Investment In litho
graph mining stocks to build the entlr
Auditorium nnd enough Omnha money has
been sunk In adventures In tho south to
build the manufacturing establishments
thnt we need here. Wo should Invest the
profits of good times at home so that wo
may have tho surplus with us when tho
rainy day comes. If it does como ngnln.
Communities become wealthy only by tho
accumulation of their surplus earnings."
F. W. Kellogg spoke briefly, nnd tho meet
