PJUOUE , Aug. 31.-Kdltorlal | Corrospon-
flonco. ] The capital of Bohemia deservedly
takes ranK as ono of the handsomest cities In
Europe. Viewed from any point It is strik
ingly unique , with its harmonious blending
of what was most imposing and ornate in
tncdlmval architecture with the boil models
Of modern construction ,
The rocky bluffs and high hills that hem
the city within the basin of tbo Moldcu ,
Which Hews through Its center , present a
picturesque background and orlng Into
pleasing prominence the lofty castle towotn ,
turreted ifatos and spires that glvo Prague
- , almost an oriental appearance.
* To the American tourist I'raguo U inten-
Aoly intoroitmif by reason of its historical
reminiscences. Every foot of ground for
many miles around has boon contested nnd
fought over In almost every bloody war that
lias distracted Europe , and pitched battles
Lave been fought by great armies within gun
hot of her walls. Every church , every mon
ument and publlo building 'and nlmott every
thoroughfare recalls nome historic tncl-
Cent.
Prague was a great center Of culture more
than 500 years ago end hur university , then
the foremost seat of learning In Europe , was
attended by more than 20,000 students from
nil parts of the old world.
I must necessarily conflno myself to perso
nal Impressions and observations in and
about Pr.iguo and endeavor to recall tbo
chances that nave taken plaoo slnco I at
tended school in this city in 1853. Within
Ihoso thirty-eight years Prague has nearly
Doubled her population , which , by the census
of 1890 , Is computed at 318,130 including sub
urbs. This growth affords strixing proof of
marvelous vitality.
Almost the first change noted by mo on my
return was the disappearance of the great
wall and broad and deep ditch that formerly
Burrouudcd the city. The walls have been
leveled , the ditches filled up and the space
covered uy them converted into grand boule
vards and beautiful narks , nnd lariro tracts
6f land formerly outslilo of the wall are now
covered by blocks of magnificent buildings
end great factories and mills.
In the heart of the old city the transforma
tion has boon equally marked. Many of the
old narrow , ramshorn streets have been
widened and straightened. Magnificent
business blocks and great publlo buildings
bavo taken the places of rookeries and flro-
traps that had survived the ravaeos of war
and flooJ , smooth asphalt pavements have
taken the place of cobblestones on the prin
cipal business thoroughfares. Monumental
school buildings have been erected to supple
ment the commodious , but time worn college
and university buildings , and great palaces
dedicated to art and science have been con
structed to meet the demand for art culture
which has boon developed in a auQlcIont
degree by the Bohemians within the past
quarter of a century.
Last but not least , the grand national Bo
hemian theater , which Adellnl Paul pro
nounces more perfect In point of acoustics
than any opera house or theater in the world ,
has boon erected at an expense of over
D,000OJO llorlns , supplemented by n superb
play bouse.tho German theater , which would
do credit to any city on either side of the
Atlantic.
Equally notable Is the improvement that
has taken place in street lighting , street
cleaning , drainage , nnd facilities for transit.
With the exception of Paris and Brussels ,
no city that I have visitnd , can boast cleaner
nnd bettor lighted thoroughfares.
As a commercial and industrial center
Prague has made big strides to
the front within a comparatively
recent period. This fact was made
patently the Centennial Industrial Exposi
tion , which has been in progress slnco the
1st of May. The first industrial exposition
over attempted in any _ country was hold in
Prague In 1791 on the occasion of the crown
ing of Leopold II. as king of Bohemia.
Although that exposition was comparatively
a very insignificant affair It attracted a great
deal of attention and emphasized the fact that
Bohemia was far advanced in the manufac
ture of linen and textile fabricswoolen cloth ,
laces , glassware , mirrors , polished garnets
nnd other precious stones , and toys.
Tbo exposition of IS'Jl , planned and exe
cuted on a scale commensurate with the in
dustrial growth of Bohemia , includes within
its scope :
I. Agriculture , with all its various
branches , namely : The dairy , cattle raising ,
boo culture , fish culture , fruit culture ,
forestry , vine culture , products of the farm
and garden , and all braucnos'of agricultural
nnd horticultural Instruction ,
3. Leather and all the products of htdo ,
hoof and horn.
3. Products of the farm , beet sugar , flour ,
ftarcb , butter , malt , bops , honey , wax and
wax products , as well as all utensils and
apparatus employed In tha conversion of tbo
taw material into marketable wares.
4. Products of wood , straw , cork , bono and
gutta porcho ,
5. Textile fabrics , Including linen , sllir ,
Woolen , cotton and ju'.o spun goods , carpoU
and tapestry.
G. Paper industry and paper fabrics.
7. Lithographing , printing nnd electro-
typing.
8. Mining and mineral products , Including
raw material , chemicals and mineral waters.
9. Earthenware , glassware and porcelain
Industry.
10. Chemicals and drjgs , Including soaps ,
Jtorfumery , paints and varnishes.
II. Iron and steel industry , including also
bnuswaro and bronzes.
13. Gold and silverware.
13. Machinery tools and motors.
14. Transportation , including railway np-
parattib , atc-amsblp models , etc.
15. Engineering and archltocturoincludmg
Illumination , boating and ventilation , water
lupply. drainage , highways , bridging and
railroad construction ,
1(3. ( Furniture and house decoration.
17. Scientific Instruments and watch mak
ing and musical instruments.
IS. Kducatlonal , includiog publlo schools
and high schools , trade schools , art schools ,
ind normal t mining for mechanical and soien-
'
tlllo schools.
10. Art , viz. , painting , sculpture and arcbi-
.tocturo ,
The design of the promoters was certainly
rery broad nnd exhaustive , taxing to the ut
most all the roiourcos at their command. - According
cording to the beit Information 1 have been
blo to got , the actual outlay for buildings ,
electric lluht plant and adornment of grounds
was about 1,250,000 flo.tns ( * .V)0POO ) ) , which-
taking into account difference in cost of
labor , would represent nt leant $1,500,000 bad
the building boon erected in auy Amuricau
Ity.
1 his , of course , does not include tno coit of
numerous pavilion * and buildings eroctoa by
exhibitors at their owu expense , which , at
the lowest estimate , represent an additions !
outlay of. halt a million florins.
A description of the exposition grounds and
buildings and a detailed review of the exhib
its would take several columns In TUB Br.g.
Suftlco It to say that I was ngrooably sur
prised at the magnitude and magnificence of
the main exposition building , which U said to
surpass In Its architectural beauty and sub
stantial character the great Paris exposition *
al hall of 1539.
I was equally surprised at the art and good
taste displayed In the interior decorations
and the variety and excellence of the articles
exhibited.
The most impressive features to mo
were the exhibit of the schools of
Bohemia. This was not merely n col
lection of copy books with speci
mens of penmanship and drawing , but an
exhibit of the work and record of each school
InnlllU branches of instruction and more
particularly the practical application of in
dustrial training. Wood carving , plaster
moulding , engraving , cabinet work , lock
smith , and tinsmith's work , and in fact the
product of almost every known trade in ar
tistic porfcctlon made and finished by bays
and somo'of tbo most beautiful ombroldory
nnd hand lace making douo by glrh In the
training schools , wore among the attractive
and auggostlvo school exhibits.
Another surprise awaited me in machinery
ball , whore the display of ingenious stem
nnd hydraulic machinery nnd products of iron
and steel mills , which abound in Bohemia
was pronounced exceptionally flno by a St.
Louis iron mill man who made this part of
the exposition a special study.
The only drawback that has tended to
make the exhibit of the Industrial products
of Bohemia incomplete has been political ,
tiohomia lltco Ireland , is torn up bv internal
political dissensions , among the two distinc
tive classes of her population , the Germans
and Ccchs , or Slavs. Eightv-eight per coat
of the population of Prague is Slavic , and
very naturally the municipal council is com
posed almost exclusively of Cochs , and the
management of tbo exposition was princi
pally , if not entirely in the bands of
Cechs.
The Germanic Bohemians , who control
some very Important Industries , took um
brage and declined to exhibit , and many of
tbo German Bohemians kept away entirely.
This Bourse , however , bad the effect to spur
the Slavic population , who are really the
bono and sinew of the land , to gro itor activ
ity , and hundreds of thousands poured into
the city a a matter of patriotism.
Several thousand Bohemian Americans
bavo come across the sea to join in the cele
bration and their reception by the Bohemian
societies of Prague was an ovation such as
had never before boon accorded to any class
of visitors. The demonstration was in fact
so decidedly "Bohemian" that the Austrian
authorities took umbrage and almost came to
regard it as an outbreak.
I have no disposition to take sldoi in the
local political controversies by whlcn
Bohomta in general and Prague in
particular are torn to pieces , but can
not refrain from romarkini ; that the con
test between the two Bohemian fac
tions as to which policy Bohemians
should pursue in their supreme effort to
secure local self-government , seems to an
outsider as ill-timed and puerile. In politics ,
as in war , there can bo no division in the
camp without imperiling the cause.
I cannot close without paying a merited
compliment to Mr. Vojta Naprstok , to whom
I , tn common with every American who
visits Prague , are under obligations for the
sincere interest manifested in Americans.
Mr. Napratok resided in Milwaukee and Chi
capo way back in tbo fifties , and formed a
strong attachment to. American institutions ,
extending to Americans his unbounded hos
pitality. Mr. Naprstek is a retired gentle
man of wealth and owns the largest pri
vate English-American library and collection
of American periodical literature in all
Europe. His library contains over 20,000
books In tbo English language , and his tables
and shelves are loaded down with magazines ,
American city directories and papsrs , which
'aro constantly placed nt the disposal of
American visitors , without price or expecta
tion of reward. E. KOSEWATEII.
RAILROAD
Some or Them nro or Local Interest
Notes nnd Personals.
The report from Denver that the Denver
& nio Grande and tbo Santa Fo bad entered
into a combination whereby tbo latter virtu
ally controls tbo former road is looked upon
as a very peculiar arrangement by railroad
mon in this city , in view of the fact that the
Colorado Midland , the only competitor of
the Kio Grande , is controlled by the Santa
Fo. Tbo presumption is that a close traftlu
arrangement has been made between the
Santo Fo and the Ulo Grande whereby tbo
former is allowed a voice in the management
of tbo latter. If this is the case , the Santa
Fo controls the only outlet from Denver to
Salt Lake except tbo Union Pacific , and Is in
a position to frcozo out tbo Burlington , Hock
Island and Missouri Pacific. It will also
control the western connection of the Mis
souri Pacific at Pueblo.
This will force those roads to construct
ono or more outlets , and tbo sensible plan
would seem to bo for them to unite and con
struct n road for Joint uio from Denver
west. The Burlington some time ago sur
veyed n line from Denver across the Snowy
range down the Grand river valley to Grand
Junction , the eastern terminus of the liio
Grande Western , which it nh > o loft out in the
cold by the now arrangement , and is vir
tually at the mercy of the Santa Fo.
The probabilities are very strong that the
Rock Island and Burlington will unite in
buildings road through this country in order
to irivo them an outlet independent of the
Santa Fe. Tbo action on the nart of the
Santa Fo will act as an additional Incentive
to the Burlington to hasten the long cher
ished project of extending Its line to the
coast. In this connection it is not impossible
that the Burlington may steal the Union
Pacific's thunder , as it did in pushing Its
lira into Montana , and build to the coast
along the ideal Slntlo route long cherished
by General Manager Clark , south of the
Great Salt Lake and paralleling the South
ern Pacific to the coast and passing through
a country now remote from all railroad con
nections and.rlch in * all kinds of mineral de
posits.

Crrr OP MEXICO , Sept. 19. The so-called

forces , bo given a warm reception.
Sandoral was expelled from this city and
the country for sedition some two years ago.
It will ho reicombcrod that several months
ago Sandoval attempted a raid Into this

a nude condition. Ho was imprisoned , re

Young Ministers Future
Work.
Dr. P. S. Merrill cauRht ttio oar of the
blsnop first yesterday after the raluutos
had boon read and ho presented a memorial ,
signed by scvoral of the brethren , favoring
tlio establishment of a training school at
Cincinnati for the purpose of training lay
men for the work of holding religious tnoo >
lugs. The memorial was adopted.
bf. Maxllcld offered a memorial favoring
the establishment of a book depositor/
an oQlcial church paper In Omaha. The
memorial was unanimously adopted.
JJr. Maxnold then offered n resolution
which brought on n lively alicusslon. The
resolution was for the purpose of changing
the rules of the church In such n way as to
make the bishop the presiding otllcor nt the
lay electoral conference us well as at the an
nual ministerial conference. Dr. Maxneld
said that the manner In which the
lay conference bad conducted the busi
ness that came before the body the
previous dav In the basement of the church ,
convinced him that tbo blsbop should bavo
been the presiding ofllccr , so that the dig
nity nnd the solemnity of the occasion could
bnvo been maintained. Ho said that the
lady members appeared to bo the only
decorous members of the lay conforonco.
Uov. Peter DoClarko was opposed to the
resolution. Ho thought that tha bishop
should bo civon authority simply to appoint
the presiding ofllcer for all lay electoral con
ferences.
It Wasn't Popular.
Cider Marquette made a popular hit by
attacking tbo sentiment of the memorial
which proposed to take away from the lay
conferences the right to elect their own
chairman. Ho said the Methodist
church was democratic , and the
laymen were as capable of conducting
their business as the ministers were. Ho
thoueht that it was a reflection upon the good
intentions and ability of the laymen to offer
sucn n rosolution.
Dr Maxtleld defended the resolution in a
lengthy and forceful speech , in which ho dis
claimed any intention on his part to reflect
upon the ability of the laymen. Ho thought
that the laymen ought to bo satisUea
with the same arrangement as tnat by
which the ministers were governed. The
ministers were not consulted as to the chair
man who presided over their annual confer
ences. The bishop was sent to the confer
ence and the ministers accepted the situation.
Ho thought the laity should bo governed In
about the same manner in their conference
deliberations. Dr. MaxQeldsaid be proposed
to present this memorial to the general con
ference personally , OVOQ if the conference did
not see fit to adopt it.
Elder Clondennlng was opposed to the
sentiment of the resolution. Ho believed
that the laymen of the North Nebraska
conference were as capable and as well in
formed in the performance of their work as
the ministers were In the performance of
theirs.
Dr. Merrill was opposed to the resolution
and ho offered a substitute resolution to snut
off the threat made by Dr. Maxiiold to the
effect that ho would present ] such a memorial
to the general conference.
Dr , Merrill then offered a resolution to in
struct the delegates to the general
conference not to introduce any
such , memorial as that proposed
by Dr. Maxflola , but his resolution was not
seconded and could not bo put as a substi
tute.
Elder Moore was in favor of the memorial
offered by Dr. Maxflcld.
Kov. Jennings was very much In favor of
the adoption of tbo memorial.
The conference finally voted upon Dr.Max-
fleld's memorial and rejected it.
In Full Connection.
Tao sacred and solemn services attending
the reception of these ministers who had
been two years in the work on
trial into full membership were
then tak n up by the bishop. Ho called the
following ministers who were to bo received
to the front pew and delivered a most fitting
and solemn address fo them and the confer
ence : Rev. N. A. Martin , Uov. Juil A. High
and Uov. E. E. Wilson.
The bishop said ho wanted the young men
to fully understand the kind of church they
wore intending to enter as ministers. Some
ministers who could not succeed in the Meth
odist churoh might do much better in some
other church. The bishop said : "We
don't , for a minute , hold that our
regiment is the only regiment in
the ranks of the trreat salvation army. Wo
don't hold tnat all the saints in glory have
plumed their wings at our altar. But wo do
want our ministers to fool at home m our
ranks. If you do not like the Methodist
church , my brother , say so in a manly way
and wo will lot you go elsewhere with our
blosslng. And ufter you have preached in a
Methodist pulpit for a number of years , if
for any reason you should become dissatis
fied with the church , don't be
a cmvinl and attack the church
government from behind , don't
slander the mother that bora you , but if you
have made up your mind that you can't live
with your mother cburcn in poaro and happi
ness , then say so and go outlikoaman to
work in other fields. "
The bishop then entered upon a very Inter
esting and eloo.uont explanation of the vital
principals of the Methodist church. The
bishop said that the life and vitality of the
Methodist church depended upon a constant
and unrelenting fight against sin. Methodists
should never light anvbody or any church
until they had espoused the causa of sin. The
Methodist church was distinctly a reform
church. It dia not Bella vo in bolngiod by
the world into reforms , but the church should
impose reforms upon tha world. Tbo bishop
then spoke of the courage of the Methodist
churoh during the dark days of the rebellion
wnon the church was cut in two rather than
countenance the terrible sin of slavery by
the church. Ho then said that in recent days
everybody realized that wbcrover a Motho-
dlst minister made his appearance there
stood an enemy of the liquor tralllo.
Always Fixed to FJjnr.
A Methodist minister was always loaded to
fight the saloons and the liquor trafllo , the
bishop saidand unless ayoung man had made
up his mind to that purpose ho bad no right
to enter the work of the Methodist ministry ,
lie said the Methodist church was strictly
orthodox. It was admitted now to bo ortho
dox by all. Tno dav has pone by when
these who rejected the Calvinistic doctrine
were called heretics. Calvinism bad practi
cally surrendered its claims to any foothold
in the Methodist church.
The doctrine that Jesus Christ had tasted
death for every man had won tbo victory ,
and the Idea that a part of tbo human race
had boon doomed to porlsn and another part
to bo saved , had boon overwhelmed in tbo
march of religious enlightenment. In con
clusion tbo bishop said the church did not
claim to bo historic in every turn of the band
or wink of the eye. Ho did not bollovo that
God selected the bishops and made
faucets of them tbrougn which His grace
might bo poured into others through the lay
ing on of hands.
" 1 should only bestow the authority of the
church , " said the bishop , "if I should lay my
hands on the heads of the brethren who nro
seeking admission to tbo ministry. God would
bestow the grace from His own great heart ,
not through the tips of my fingers. "
The three young ministers were then asked
to answer the questions put to them by the
bishop , nnd then they wore- admitted by tbo
conference to full connection.
Uov. F.V. . Dross was patsod from tbo tint
to the second year.
Rov. A. L. Mtckol was also passed to the
second year.
Uov. H. D. Foota was admitted to trial for
the first year.
Mr. Frudy of Nellgh applied for ordination
as local deacon.
There was considerable discussion with
regard to the ordination of Mr , Frady. It
was broadly hlntod that bo was not entirely
loyal to tbo Methodist church.
Dr. Maxtleld said that Mr. Frady was not
strictly a Mothodist. Ho was u Congrosa-
tlonallstora Presbyterian or almost any
thing as well a * a Metnodlst. Several others
apoUo m a similar manner and others
claimed that Dr. Frady was all right and
that ho had orgnnUod .union Sunday schools
In certain places simp ) ; .because the Method
ists could not sustain tnom.
Borne of the paslonthbughl that tbo habit
of onlalnlng local doncons wni not a good
one because they sometimes got the wedding
fees that should go to tbo pastors on the
charge. > '
Dr. Merrill thought thnt such an argument
was beneath the dignity and spirit of a true
Methodist.
Uov. Qorst stood byiMr. Frady , saying that
ho was a > cry usofuliman notwithstanding
the fact that ho baa done a great deal of
work In union Sunday schools outsldo of
the Methodist rhurchu Mr. Frady wasnot
elected. f ,
Mr. William A. Mlllor was elected as local
deacon.
Uoports upon the traveling preachers of
the conference were then called for nnd the
preachers were passed to the order of
deacons.

RATIFIED THE WARD'S ACTION.

darned by tlio Central Committee.
The county republican central committee
motatttio _ Millard yesterday afternoon and
accepted the names sent In from the various
wards and precincts as'delegates to the state
convention at Lincoln next Thursday and
fixed tbo time for tbocounty , convention and
primaries. The rceetlng was a quiet ono and
harmony reigned at the close , although there
wcie indications of a little ebullition at onetime
time , but matters were satisfactorily ad
justed and the result was pleasing all arouud.
1he fine Italian manipulation of Gould's
north and south line managers was to bo de
tected in certain linos.
The action of the ward republican clubs In
asserting themselves and sitting down upon
the proposed plan of allowing the committeemen -
men to name the delegates resulted in a
strong , representative delegation.
The only outbreak occurred when thonamo
of Charles J. Green , the well known railroad ,
attorney , -nas road as a delegate from the
Eighth ward. The resolutions adopted at
the last meeting denouncing railroad inter
ference were cited , and strong opposition to
Mr. Green developed. At the same time it
developed that he was not a resident of the
Eighth ward , and bis name was stricken
from the list and that of Major John B.
Furay substituted. There was no other kick
made , and the delegates who are entitled to
seats in the convention are as follows :

Timely BIioworH.
BXDCOCK , Wls. , Sept. 10. Copious showers
of ruin have permanently checked the fire
that scorned likely to dovastitato all the cran
berry marches north and 'east of Valley
Junction. A largo portion of the Mills marsh
and nearly all of the Taylor marsh Is entirely
destroyed , together with oil the dwelling
houses , barns and warehouses , with their
content * . On the latter tbo loss will extend
well into thousands , but cannot bo definitely
estimated.
IT IS HAYING GOOD EPFCT ,
Agitation of the lloma Industrj Question
and Its Results.
-WHAT A REPORTER HAS LEARNED ,
All Urnuches or IliiHlncgs Stimulated
Locally Good Orders nt Homo
Knctorlca Moro on n
Timely Topic.
The cause of homo patronage bos boon tak
ing long strides forward during tbo past
week and public sentiment Is nipldly coming
to its support. At the present time It would
bo a difficult matter to find in the whole city
of Omaha an Individual who will not admit
that vast benefits will accrue from the prac
tice of homo patronage on thu part of all citi
zens. The difficulty has not been in the con
version of the people to a belief In thcso two
potent word * , but iu prevailing upon them to
practlco wht > t they behove.
However , thousands of people have com
menced to practice their behot , and manu
facturers nro already fooling tbo effects in
the receipt of unsolicited orders from dealers
who have not patronized them In the past.
It is a noticeable fact that the improve
ment bos been the greatest in these lines of
goods which go into general consumption in
the household , such as coffee , baking pow
der , yeast , soap , Hour , etc. This may bo in
part duo to the fact tnat Tin ; Bni ; has said
more regarding these articles but I nm in
clined to give the credit to the ladles thorn-
solves who when they bcllovo that n certain
thing Is right do not ncsitato to put their be
lief into practice.
As a matter of fact a great many enter
prising citizens have requested their families
to use goods of Omabu mant'facturo , which
has helped along the cause , but I suspect
that n largo number of these same enter
prising citizens have not been practicing
what they have been preaching to their
wives. Wbllo keeping an eye on tbo pur
chases of their better halves they have gone
on in the old way , buying their , cigars ,
shirts , shoes , clothing , etc. , in the oast. If
this is not the case I hope that some cigar.
manufacturer or shirt maker will correct mo.
It may bo that the ladic will have to take
this matter lu hand themselves and rescue
such manufacturing Interests as depend upon
the lords of creation for support. Hoiv would
It do to hint to the head of the family that
the coal house , nnd not the family sitting
room was the proper place to smoke cigars
redolent of New York tenement houses ? If
ho buys his clothlncr in the east , how can ho
ask an Omaha lady to sow on the missing
buttonl
During the past week I have
heard and seen many ovldonccs
of the good that has been already accom
plished. In tbo past the manufacturers them
selves have not all boon blameless in this
matter of sending out of town for goods made
in the city , but they nro now showing the
right disposition.
At ono factory which I visited throe weeks
ago I saw a large number of labels printed in
an eastern city and learned that they were
having all their work done there. The man
ager promised to correct the fault and a few
days ago I saw a largo order which bo bad
filed with a local printing establishment.
Ono prominent manufacturer has been
telling bis friends that bis city business had
almost doubled in the past three wepks , and
I saw an order which ho filed with a local
printing house calling for 1,000,000 impres
sions , which illustrates how the prosperity
of ono line of business helps another.
A city salesman related how ho went into
a place of business which In the past has ob
tained most of its supplies in the cast and
heard the proprietor toll a traveling man.
"I know it. 1 have nought lots of goods of
you in the past and everything has been sat
isfactory , but they are making the same
thing in Omaha and I must buy all These
goods at homo from now on. "
A factory employe remarked : ' 'Thoy
are not laying us off any more
for a day at u time because
of light orders , but wo are working over time
and the foreman says that ho will need moro
help in a few davs if the orders keep up at
the present rate. "
A column of instances might be related
showing tbo good already done , but the chief
point to be considered is bow this movement
may bo kept up and how the people can be
induced to practice the principle wntch alone
can make of Omaha a great and prosperous
city.
1 have heard many suggestions and manv
different plans , but it would appear that the
desired result can not bo reached in anyone
ono way but that every effort must
bo put forth to reach the consumers , the re
tail dealers and the jobbers.
One plan may look to the reformation of a
certain class of consumers , if practical put
it into operation. Another plan may bo use
ful in reaching certain dealers , if so do not
let it go untried. Homo patronage Is a bow
with many strings nnd every string must bo
pulled if you would hit the mark.
Tbo plan proposed by TIIK BEI : , that of a
manufacturers' association , has mot with the
unanimous approval of all concerned and if
the manufacturers decide to form n perma
nent organization , as they probably will at
their meeting Monday afternoon , they will
then bo in position to put m operation every
plan that setms practical.
The coming meeting of the manufacturers
deserves moro than a passing notice , as it
promises to bo the largest and most import
ant mooting over held in Omaha by any
class of business mon.
I had contemplated publishing a list of the
manufacturers who would promise to bo
present nt the meeting , but after calling on
about fifty aud learning bow enthusiastic-
they were and how they were calling person
ally on other manufacturers and sending out
notices of the mooting , and not hoarlnc of a
tangle manufacturer who was Intending to
absent himself , I decided that it was a clear
case of "wo will all bo thoro. "
For fear that someone might overlook the
call published in Tin : BEE or forgot the date
several manufacturers mot Thursday morn
ing and formulated the following invitation
to the meeting which they are sending out to
manufacturers :
To nil Omaha manufacturers nml parties in
terested In the upbuilding of Omaha : Von
are hereby earnestly requested to bo present
at a meeting of the O mail it manufacturers to
be hold In the room of the Iie.il Ilsitito Own
ers' association , room 2A Now York Ijlfe
bulldliiir. ut 4 p. in. , i-eptembor l.'l.
The object of thin mooting Is to effect an or
ganization that will uid the development of
all classpa of manufactures and Industries of
this city. AH you are interested In tills movo-
n out. at least ono representative of your ilrm
should bu present.

The manufacturers appear to understand
Ibo situation perfectly and 1 have hoard any
number of such remarks as "If wo nro over
going to do anything now U the time , " ' 'the '
consumers are interested , we must strlko
while the Iron Is hot , " "Tun BEE has started
a great wont and we must come to tbo front
and show that wo are worthy of the efforts
put forth in our behalf. "
There are a sroat many men real citato
owners , capitalists and business men- who
are not manufacturers , but who are Inter
ested in the success of tbo manufacturing in
terests of the city. It would bo a great en
couragement to the manufacturers if these
men would attend the meeting at spectators
and say by their presence , if not in so many
words , ' 'Go ahead , you have our sympathy
nnd our support. "
There Is much moro that might bo said In
this connection , but the consumers are still
asking for more Information as to what is
manufactured in Omaha , and while TIIK Hun
cannot go into all the details at to quality of
goods , prices , brands , trade marks , etc. , it
has been calling attention In a general way to
tbo different lines of manufacture.
iijc the KaotorleH.
Down in East Omaha there is a cluster of
factories , several of which have already boon
brought to the notice of the peopio of Omaha
through those columns. Among the number
Is the factory of Marks Brothers , who manu
facture all kinds of barncn , saddles and col
lars , They employ sixty-five men , forty of
the number being mon with families , and it
U estimated by the proprietors that they are
directly supporting 300 people. Tbo weekly
pay roll amounts to I'.KX > , or (10,800 per year ,
a largo portion ot which Is spent among the
retail dealers of Omaha. The factory is ob
taining all the supplies possible lu 'Omaha ,
such ns boxes , naUg , paper , Uillow , etc. They
nro receiving a fair local patronage , but
plenty of goods of their kind nro sold in
Omana that come from eastern faclorlci.Tnoro
is no excuse for thh , and the owners of horse *
who are usually property owners and hence
deeply interested In tbo upbuilding of fac
tories , should see to it that they buy only
Omaha harness and saddlorv.
There are two other factories near nt hand
which turn out a superior grade of wall
Plaster. Tha Omaha Silicon nnd Wull
Plaster company nnd the Adamant Wall
Plaster company , They employ fifteen to
cightcon mon , but might double this number
several limr * over if Omaha builders would
glvo the homo made plaster the preference.
The trouble has boon that builder * only
specify that the plaster on their bulldmcs
shall bo a "good Job , " and the contractor can
buy some Inferior plaster made in other cities
or put on Missouri river mud and If U will
stay on until the building Is accepted , all
right.
Another factory in the East Omaha cluster
Is tbo whlto lead works , which nro too well
known to need any special mention. It Is
sufficient to say that they employ fifty mon
now nnrt turn out n superior article , which
they nro nble to sell oven In cities which have
whlto load works of their own. At tbo sumo
time many Omaha dealers are selling other
than the homo made article.
HUH another industry of East Omaha is
the Martin Steam Food Cooker company ,
which , ns the unmo indicates , turns out an
article useful on the stock farm but of llttlu
interest to city people. They also conduct a
foundry for turning out all kinds of callings.
It Is an Important Industry to the city , how
ever , from the ( act that It employs quite n
number ot siclllud workmen at good wages.
Last winter they run as high as twouty-
seven men.
A line of manufacture which has been car
ried on to considerable extent in Omaha for
some years Is the roasting nnd preparing of
coffoo. The Consolidated Coffee company
has a largo establishment at 1411 Homey
street , employing twenty-seven people , besides -
sides salesmen. They nro roasting from 0,000
to 10.000 pounds of coffee per dav. They put
up all grades , from the best Perfection Java
and Mocha , down to the lowest grades of
Kio. A good many Omaha dealers have been
buying colleo that U roasted In Boston or
some other eastern city , nnd that Is usually n
month old before It roaches the consumer.
Every housewife knows that coffee Is far
bettor Immediately after being roasted , and
that the longer It stands the more It deterior
ates. Dealers figure that roasted coffee loses 10
per cent of Its strength In thirty days , In splto
of this fact hundreds of housekeepers In
Omaha allow their grocer to put off onto them
n stale eastern article when they could by a
single word obtain coffee freshly roasted in
Omaha. There is a largo railroad running
Into Omaha that goes clear to Boston to buy
coffee for its eating houses. Once in a while
they run short and the purchasing agent or
ders a few cases from the Omaha house and
always admits that it is all that could
bo desired both In quality aud price ,
but when asked to buy more always excuses
himself on the ground that tie has a big order
coming from Boston.
Another line of goods found in
every household is splcos. These
goods nro put up by the Consolidated
Coffee company nnd are to be
had in all era Jos from the best German
down to the ordinary bulk spices. Why any
dealer should go outside of Omaha to buy
splcos is a mystery uhen anything in that
line can be Duplicated right hero in both price
and quality. The members of the Consoli
dated Coffee company are enthusiastic on the
subject of a manufacturers' association and
they will bo out to the meeting on the -1st iu
full forco.
There are probably few people in Omaha
who know that such articles ns bulb syringes ,
fountain syringes , and their connections ,
tubing , pipes , etc. , nursing feeders , nursing
bottle fittings , nasal douches , physician's
syringes , etc. , nro made right bore in the city
but such appears to bo the case. The Omaha
Rubber company , in addition to tbelr whole
sale and retail business , are manufacturing
goods of the above class qul to extensively ,
and would be glad to increase the number of
employes if the people of Omaha would en
courage it. Hero is nn opportunity for tbo
physicians to do the city a good tu'rn by en
couraging this branch of manufacture.
The Omaha Basket Manufacturing com
pany bavo a plant at West Lawn omplovlnir
sixtv hands during the summer with a
weekly pav roll of $500 to $600. There are
enough baskets used in Omaha nnd vicinity
to keep this number employed during the
whole year , which would result In the distri
bution of Sri.OOO to $30,000 per year in wages.
They manufacture basnets and fruit boxes of
all ulnds , market basnets , bushel baskets ,
etc. , such as oto used by gardeners and fruit
growers. Ono of the Interesting features of
the factory is the eleven-ton machine , which
will take a log seven feet long and cut it into
thin strips from the thickness of paper up.
Tbo quality of the goods turned out Is llrst
class and the shipment of baskets to this
point from other cities should bo stopped at
onco.
What Business Men Sny.
W. A. Pace , soap manufactutcr Our
business iu the city of Omaha has been in
creased 50 per cent since THE BEB com
menced to agitate home putrouace. Dealers
who have absolutely refused lu the past to
handle our goods , send In orders now unso
licited.
P. J. Quoaloy , soap manufacturer During
the twenty years that I have been in business
in Omaha. I never uaw a time when it was
so easy to sell mv goods as now.
L. M. Roam , Manager of the American Dis
trict Telegraph As n citizen of Omaha , anx
ious to see the city prosperous , I nui deeply
interested in this movement for homo patron
age. The manufacturers must organize and
help push forward the work commenced by
THE BEK. All my inlluenco will bo thrown
on the side of building up the manufacturing
interests of Omaha.
O. H , Curtis , president of the Omaha Rub
ber company Tbo members of our nrm will
all bo present at tbo manufacturers' meeting.
A strong organization of the manufacturers
will bo the making of the city , besides being
of great advantage to the manufacturers
themselves.
Charles R. Leo , hardwood lumber dealer.
It looks to mo like poor policy on the part of
any business man to send away for goods
which can bo made In this city , oven If n few
dollars can bo saved by so doing. Take it In
the matter of clothing every few days there
is u drummer for some eastern house around
with samples and tbov all claim that they
can furnish goods for less money than the
local bouses and they give n good many rea
sons why tov are able to do It. It stands to
reason , however , that they must slight tbo
worlc or put In n poorer quality of goods , erin
in some way make up the difference in price ,
for they hnvo the extra expense of the drum
mer , which the local house docs not have.
When Omaha clothing merchants build
houses wo expect them to buy their lumber
In Omaha ana wo ought to give them our
trade in return , The same line of argument
can bo applied to all kinds of business.
Frank Dwork. retail crocer nt 1318 WIU
Hams street I have no trouble in selling
Omaha made goods , which my customers
have found to bo just as good ns anything
made In eastern cities. 1 soli Omaha soap ,
pickles , crackers , syrup , baking powder ,
yeast , etc. , and bavo novcr had u customer
complain of the quality. I behove that all
grocery mon ought to do this for tbo sake of
the laboring men who need work.
An Omaha teacher who would perhaps not
care to have her name mentioned makes a
good suggestion : \ \ hllo reading from week
to week your articles on "Patronize Homo
Industry" I have wondered why you did not
suggest that the teachers help in the matter.
From experience I know that in thn course
of study a largo amount of time is allotted to
Omaha and Nebraska. In ray Sixth credo
wo are using the IbOl Board of Trade
statistics.
H. Hardy , Dealer in House Furnishing
Goods , Eto , A great many retail dealers
huvo tbo Idea that it looks big to go east for
goods when they could buy of the local job
bers to Just as good advantage , nnd by so
doing help build up the jobbing business of
the city. I am pleased to see the growing
sentiment in favor of patronizing local fac
tories and hope the manufacturers will avail
themselves of the opportunities to bring
themselves moro Into notice. Too many of
them have failed to Inform tbo publlo what
they wore making , and people have bought
eastern goods that they saw advertised , never
suspecting that the sumo thing was made iu
Omaha.
Hon. John Rush , city treasurer of Omaha ,
says : Owing to catarrh anil a malformation
in my nose , caunod years ago by a hart , I
wus Induced to undergo treatment with Dr.
Illrnoy , I am glad to report that bis delicate
and dexterous operation was productive of
tbo greatest good , and I am entirely cured.
I can recommend Dr. Illrnoy as ono of the
best specialists in tbo west for the treatment
of throit and nasal troubles.
