As tbo season advances money ought to bo ,
and In fast-Is , n llttlo easier In Omaha than
it was e.lrllor In the year. The money mar
ket feels the effect of the unseasonable
weather In the summer tlmo Just the same iu
It did last winter when the mild wcathov re
tarded the snlo of winter goods and kept
largo amounts ot money nut of ciidilation.
The summer has been cool nnd Backward and
summer goods are not moving ns freely as they
might nnd the tnonoy is locked up.
Bankers nnd business men generally
nro looking forward with n print
deal of satisfaction to the harvest-
Intr of n large crop , which vUll
do mucb to enliven business of nil kinds.
The very fnvorablo condition of the crops
oven now Inspires conlidunco among business
men and capitalists.
An Important event In financial circles the
past week was the publication of tbo state
ments showing the condition of the sln o
banks. These statements , which wcro based
on the condition of busliiess on Juno ISO , nro
In every respect , vorv satisfactory ajid show
the state banks of Omaha to bo on a very
solid basis. As compaiod with the piovlous
statements made on February 21 there bus
been u culn of over 10 per cent In the matter
of deposits , which bankers consider as a very
good showing , nnd especially so nt the pres
ent time.
As the state banks of this city are mostly
savings institutions , tholr deposits ,
amounting to over $ . ' 1,000,000 , repre
sent the surplus cninings of the people.
Assuming that the national banks of the city
have not lost in deposits sincothoir last state
ment on May 4 , thcro Is now on deposit in
the banks of the city of Omaha $19ii8StW0.87.
This does not include the banks of South
Omaha which do n Inrgo business and which
would bring the totnl deposits cousidoiably
above twenty millions
The following compiled statement will
show the condition of the state banks of

It is now produced in shot ollocts , one pat

Among the extravagances of tht hour Is a
necklace of olerced diamonds , each stone
being strung llko a bond on tine wlro. The
necklneo is worn close at the throat or Is
tulstod ns nn ornament in the hnir.
Dress collars nro wora either very , very
high or they nro not worn at nil. Tlioro Is
really no medium. Of ttio high ones , the
lowest are two Inches. The highest are nine
inches in the back end as high In front as a
woman's ' chin will permit.
Low-throated dresses are everywhere
worn and a larpo share are collarless , with
somotlmos n bit of passomcntoiio In points ,
or a band of ribbon ns n substitute. Some
times the void Is laco-llllod , out many cor
sages are loft empty and unroliovea.
Green and white are much used to relieve
black for day wear , and mnuvo and yellow
nto the colors chosen for combining with
black not or lace evening dresses. Only cer
tain shades of green , however unite with
black in an artistic manner for day wear.
It has become the style to trim hnts in
front underneath the crown brim. The pancake -
cake sailors nro all provided with n llttlo
crown plcco underneath the bilni , and this
llttlo false crown is used ns a vehicle for dis
playing fruit , llowers and folds of bright ma
terial.
At the present tlmo , when metal trimmings
are fashionable , it should bo remembered that
It Is dinicult to Und nny white wool coeds on
which gold or silver trimmings may bo used
without their becoming tarnished. Tnls is
duo to the use of sulphur in bleaching whlto
goods.
Now silks delightfully cool for genuine Hot

India. They have grny or palo cienm
grounds decorated with largo dots , cubes ,
blocks or palms , in various colors. They have
also stripes ol delicate color on ecru founda

The very fnshlonnblo pale-willow or yellow

not a now ono , but it is a fashionable cnoand ,
it is also in good tasto.
The now tennis flannels nro remarkably
pretty and these with a silk strlpo or polka
dot in rose , mauve , yolloiv or rod make up
charmingly. The rich-surfnced surnh silks
sold this season at very low rates , consider
ing their quality , nro much used as sashes
with smait tennis costumes.
The dresses that have no collars at all are
cutioundln the neck and llnlshcd with a
cording or ore made slightly V-shaped front
and back. Tbo latter stjlo Is very becoming
to ladies with full throats nnd graceful nocks.
And the round tlnlsh with cording looks well
upon young girls who have fair white skins.
Young gills have ncvor hud as much atten
tion paid to the designing of tholr costumes
as now. Especially pretty fashion plates are
designed for thorn and modistes hnvu sot
themselves to work to show how pretty nnd
graceful effects can bo produced upon girls
who are at that ungincoful growing ugo and
who have no flguru ut all to speak of.

Ttio fashionable trunk todav is the rattan

and furnisncd with but ono tray. It has n
stout cover of wnterpioof canvas bound tilth

is nothing moro durable than inttnn , ns the

With so many nnd such varying styles
from which to choojo.lt would seem as If
ono could not well go astray in tiimmlng
one's tint. But lot the woman who wishes to
appear ttoll bo careful that bho docs not
allow herself too gre.it freedom of tasto. For
style Is style , for a' that , and unlass a woman
knows whnt sha Is about when she trims her
bnt she will uinko n most homemade looking
affair minor than n smart bit of mllilmny

In n privnlo coiivursntlon the other day ono
of the host Ittiovn chnrlty organlrcri In the
city mid 11 motiiuor of the board of lady mim-
nRur * of the world's fulr , expressed the
opinion that MM. Potter Palmor's visit to

Unit tha board of lady managers will bo called

doucd ho effort to secure rolustatomoiit ns

that If a meeting of the full board were
called today and the quos1 Ion of the rlfibt of
Miss Cou/.ius to act as sccietary submitted
to them , she would win by a lnro majority.
"I am neither a friend of Miss Couzlns nor
in nny way hostile to Mrs. Palmer , but I
bollovo Miss Courins lias been made the vic
tim of gross Injustice. When she was pro
posed for sccrotary of tbo board 1 was
opposed to her and voted iiKalust her , and
should do so uKulu \ ( she were n candidate.
Uut she was fairly elected and
most unfairly deposed , and I um
therefore ilrm In the conviction that
she should bo reinstated. The fact Is that
Miss Coii/ins wns not acceptable to the line
lady element of the board , bho is a woman's
sulfrnRlst and has what might bo called an
augulur disposition , Her peculiarities are
such as to make her unpopular. It wai to
this fact and not to any sins of omission or
commission In her ofllco that she owes her ro-
inoval. There Is llttlo doubt that the com
mit too of twonty-ftvo which took her ofllco
from her wa& appointed for that very pur
pose liiu-o there was not ono dissenting volco
when the question was put to vote. Of all
these to whoso votes she owed her election
not ono found n place on that committee.
Tbo so-called char os drawn up by this com
mittee were presented to Miss Couzins at
1:15 : on tlio afternoon and she wns ordered to
submit tier answers to tnora oy 4iu : ; , jusi
filtoen minutes Inter. When she failed to dose
so she was declared suspended. Nemo of
the Chicago papers have published the truth
about the matter and such Is the prejudice
airalnst Miss Cou/lns that It will bo very
uitlicult for her to got Justice hero. "
A STATE COM'KHBNCK OF EDITOH9.
A unique experiment. Both from a political
and a journalistic standpoint , will bo made
in Illinois the latter part of the present
month. On July ! i8 all the representatives
of interior newspapers of the republican
faith will meet for the purpose of formulating
n programme for the coming campaign. The
objeot is to secure harmony and unity of
action among the thought moulders through
out tno stutu and to attain ihnt end it Is not
improbable tb.it a bureau will bo established
to prepare and distribute among the members
of the country prnss articles on state and
national topics. It Is also understood that
the convention will bo asked to pass upon the
character ot legislation of the last general
assembly , pnrticulailp the ballot reform bill ,
what amendments should bo proposed , etc. A
largo attendance of representatives of inte
rior newspapers Is expected because of the
piobablo effect of the conference on the re
sult of the presidential canvas in Illinois.
TIID OUUEllVVTO IlIMjltACF.
The wide popularity which resulted in the
election of "Private Joo" Fifor to the guber
natorial chair will In all probability replace
him In that position for another term. His
administration of the ofllco has been such
that oven the most partisan of the demo
cratic press hayo found llttlo to ciitlclso and
his strength with members of his own party
Is conceded.
Among the democrats the aspirants are
fairly clambering over each other in their
efforts to bo sacrificed on the altar of patriot
ism. Candidates for all positions to bo Illlcd
by the state conventions next May are moro
numerous than over uoforo so far in advance
of the choice of delegates. The party , how
ever , is in anything but fighting trim. Dis
rupted , disorganized and In debt , the pros
pects are that in this stronghold of dcmoc-
lacy the untorrilied will dlsslpato their
strength in factional quarrels. The split in
the ratilcs lost spring which mudo possible
the election of Mayor Washburno has not
uccn closed up. The wounds received in that
memorable campaign are still uuhcalcd do-
snlto the efforts or the party medicine men.
The Cregior and Hariison elements nro ns
bitter us over and there seems little prospect
ot reuniting the factions so long as tiioso
veterans continue to lend them. Some promi
nent members of the party huvo suggested
that now moil bo put In the load , and this
Idea Is meeting with favor. Had either
Harrison or Croglor bean elected last spring ,
the division between the two sections woula
piobably hnvo remained for many years , but
si n co both are out in the cold it Is hoped that
n common uungor may once moro drive thoin
into a common fold.
Sl'IKINO THE ENEVl'S ODNS.
Ex-Congressman Joseph G. Cannon was
defeated last fall largely through the bolting
of n number of republican papers of the
Fifteenth district and the fight they made
against him. It Is now generally understood
that ho intends to run again in lb'J-i and has
sot out to got the belligeiont papers into
hands that are Icnown to bo friendly to him.
A short time since ho secured the Danville
Commercial and also started the Champaign
News and now the Arcola Uocord has boon
purchased from Colonel C. V. Wall , the
leader In the light last fall. An editor
filcndly to Cannon Is to take charge of it.

THE NOHTitiiux memo OIIDIXAXCB novn.
Considered from nn aldornianlo standpoint
it was a very shabby trick that Mr. Culler-
ton played on his fellow-patriots when ho
slipped through a big grant of right of way
to the Northern Pacilio without any of thorn
knowing anything about it until ft was all
over and done. According to every prece

in that respectable body the bringing down

Governor Helen of Town.
Governor Boles ought to bo beaten by the
republicans because ho Is n democrat. Ho
should bo retired by the people of lown be
cause ho is not n representative man. In his
Injudicious Mndlson square spcc.ch ho
wrought raUchtof , not only to the people of
this state , but to the entire west , sayi the
Council Bluffs Nonpareil. In an unfortunate
moment ho struck n blow nt western develop
ment from which it will take joarn to re
cover. Ho scared away the investment of
eastern capital In the west , Its most proilt-
nulo source of employment , and by this loss
of conlldenco on the part of eastern capi
talists moro than ono well-to-do western man
nas been brought face to face with ruin. Kls
Now York speech was worse than n Texas
tornado or the hot wind of Kansas. From
these natural visitations recovery iu ono sea
son is possible , but for the governor of this
great commonwealth to plant himself on
suoh an cironcous record , the slow pro
cess of years is necessary to overcome its
blighting olTect. What possessed him to de
liver such an address , hurtful alike to the
people of Iowa , whether independent , demo
cratic or republican i In his speech ho snld :
"According to the most reliable statUtlcs at
tainable nt this tlmo fX ) per cent of the mnlo
population over ten years of ago In Iowa nro
engaged In agricultural pursuits. " The pres
ent population ot Iowa is l,011bOa. Of this
vast number ho lakes the testimony of only
800 farmers , who claim they are conducting
their farms nt n loss , as the true condition of
the agricultural Interests of this state. Why
not with equal force taito that of the Hood
swept districts the present year ! With this
minute number of our population ho drew n
lugubrious tale of disaster whoa U had no exIstence -
Istonco as a fact. Ho said :
"It is estimated by these making thcao
reports that the cost of producing an aero of
of corn for market is $4 ; that the nverago
crop for live years has been thirty-three and
a third bushels , nnd statistics show that the
average pi Ices of this corn in our local mar
kets , soon after harvest , during stlch period
has been li. ! cents per bushel , making the
entire vnluo of the crop when murkotod
$7.33 or 70 cents less than the actual cost of
production at market rates of labor. What
Is true of the production of corn hi Iowa
Is equally true of all the great staples
raUud on her farms. When wo consider
tbo Immense capital Invested In the
farms of n single stutoT nnd are told that for
llvo whole years it has not paid enough to
compensate tbo labor employed , it is ap
parent that no other .business iu the country
could have withstood such n condition of ad
versity during so piolouged n period. 1 have
spoken of the condition ol agiicultural indus
tries In my own stato. I have called atten
tion to the fact that for years these indus
tries have been prosecuted at a loss instead
of a proflt , and I nfllrmltnout fnar of con
tradiction that thcro Is no state iu the union
where the great staples of agriculture , the
productions that supply necessary food for
man and beast , can bo moro cheaply pro
duced. "
This Is the picture drawn by the governor.
Now what are the facts as to the year IS'.IO
ono of the governor's' five years of disaster ?
The estimates of the United States depart
ment of agriculture for Iowa in IbOO are as
follows : '

Average J10.4J 4Jj ! cents
As the estimates of the department of ag
riculture are the standard , it is difileult to
Imagine how Governor Boies arrived at his
conclusions. The difference between his llg-
ures and the standard estimates nro too glar
ing. His claim that the coU of producing an
acre of corn is greater than the homo value ,
Is not sustained. The difference between
the homo value is $ J.8 < ) per aero , or ! T > Jf per
c'jnt above the cost , claimed by the governor.
The percentage of difference between the
home value per bushel and the go > crnor's

Bosnuso It has established a number of
horse routes throughout the stnto I
Because It has Its own special train which

howovr , stops at oven station. It is thrown
from the train ns the latter files past each
town In bundles and quantities of all the
wav from flvo up to 500 copies.
This UKB contains every line of news dis

This enterprise costs money. It Is , how
ever , appreciated by TIIK BFK'S reactors. No
other paper in this section could stand the
expense. No ether paper could stand half
thu expense. Some of them have tried It and
given It up.
Tin : BF.K nlono sends out n iipcclat train.
