Th Cleveland booster arrived oa an
early train over the Hurllngton, reaching
her at o'clock. Their cars wer

yiey wer' to be disturbed. Here, how
ever, was wher all th calculations wot
awry.' tor hardly had they turned over
In their berths after the switching of
their car had been finished, when there
came some tapping on the window.
Oranlia Booster Meet Them.
Looking out of tha window Lieutenant
Governor Ureenlund noticed two men
standing down In the snow, belde the
cur. making frantic gesture and calling.
"Come out of there; w wnnt up up
town. Wo have something to show you
and here in Omaha you can't afford to
spend the whole day In bed."
The stranger at the Hurllngton .depot

Cleveland Plain Dealer, took occasion to
remark:
I.tkes Neve Hotel.
"Hure, Omaha has some hotel. 1 have
been In hotels all over the country and
never saw anything mora magnificent, or
better appointed. It Is true that there
are larger hotols, but nowhere Is there
ons that Is more up-to-dat or more
beautiful. It would be a credit to a city
of 500.000. I understand that it was built
by Omaha men and by Qmaha capital. It
I and alway will be a monument to
men who fostered the project and worked
It out to such a udcesafu! culmination.

Said President Black of the .Chamber
of Commerce to a number ot the Omaha
business men with whom he waa talking:
"While we rcsirsfint practically every
line of Jobbing trade- and almost every
thing In the manufacturing line, on thla
trip we aro not selling goods. We are
out In this part of the great central west.
the corn and wheat fields of the world,
where have grown up cltlea that are
giants, just for the purpose of meeting
you people and getting acquainted. We
had heard ot you and wanted to shake:
your hands and tell you that we are doing
something In the way of manufacturing,
and then, some day. if you want to come
down to see us and continue the
acquaintance, we will give you Just as
hearty a welcome as you are giving us
today."
Fred H. Caley, secretary of the Good
Roads' association of Cleveland, enter
tained his auditors by telling them of
good roads In Ohio, adding:
"I !iok you people out here are working
along the same line, and that you will
not stop until you have paved roads all

"In Cleveland our automobile dub ha
a membership of 1.S00 anil we are all

Upson of the Manufacturers' board sald:
"Kvery city ha experienced a dull
perls1 during the last year, but with us
business Is picking up all along the line.
The manufacturing establishments are
getting back to the normal. There la a
good demand for our goods and a general
Improvement has become apparent during
the last sixty ' days., , We have stopped
talking war and have resumed talking
business, something.. I hope every busi
ness man In every- city is doing. .;
"While w have not'cqme put tp solicit
trade, our business houses and our man
ufacturing establishments stand with
their doors open and we would not object
exchanging our goods and wares for the
wheat and corn and tho hogs and cattle
of the rich and fertile prairies of Ne
braska. We have the things that we be
lieve Nebraska wants and we know that
we need the thing that Nebraska pro
duces." R. T. F. Harding of the Cleveland

Leader-News, newspaper men of the party
