Tie ) jobbing trade of Omaha has failed to
Jlovelop any very interesting features during
r.hc past week. The situation Is very much
Ithu same as was detailed ti week ago. The
Slobbers are all doing a fair business for the
[ season , nnd do not indulge ] In any fault-limi
ting , though they would like to have the
| weather conditions n little different.
In some parts of the state there Is a do-
[ mnnd for rain , and the retail merchants arc
[ inclined to move n llttlo slow until the uncertainty -
( certainty concerning the coining crop Is ru-
jmoved This keeps down the volume of
business with the jobbers and makes trade a
( little slow In some localities. It Is still early
lln the season , and jobbers are not worrying
because It docs not happen to rain in some
( localities juit when the farmers are ready
j for It.
I. ) Omaha there has been too much rnln
I md cold weather and local business enter
prises of all kinds have suffered mure or less.
I It Is noted tnnt on pleasant days the local
retail trade Is pretty good , which leads the
retailers to anticipate a good demand for
spilng and summer goods as soon as there Is
weather that will encourage buyers to bo out
on the street.
A week ago attention was called to the
compiled reports of the- last statements of
the national banks showing a comparison
between the national hanks of Omaha and
those of the stuto outside of Omaha. The
State Hanking board has now made a re
port of the state banks and It is possible to
show the Ilgures for the state banks in com
parison with the national banks of thu state.

"Sioux City fullnro ? " sild : Mr. W. H. Hob
oraon , innnngor of thu Omaha br.inch of K.
G. Dun & C'o.'s mercantile agency. "It was
EO overwhelming in its consequences and so
largo in the anprcgato sums involved that
business pcopio have talked of llttlo olso.
Omaha people can congratulate themselves
for two facts suggested by the failures at
the up-rlvor city , first , of course , that no
such disaster has occuncd hero , and second
that no such a ono can in the ordinary course
of the city's history occur hero.
' Laying aside the advantages of situation
nnd resources whic-h this city possesses ami
which might prevent a wreck like that in
Sioux City , the capital of Omaha is not con
centrated in the hands of three or four indi
viduals. The utter destruction of our heavi
est financial institution could not carry with
ii the relative disaster which followed the
collapse of Hedges and his associates. The
tlnancial men of Omaha are not all in
terested in the same investments , and one
heavy corporation might go to the wall
without affecting business in general.
Omaha's record in this particular is phenom
enal. Kvon in the early days of her history
her tlnancial concerns and heavy mercantile
houses wore independent of each other to a
remarkable extent.
"Trauo has not been up to the average
generally this week though in groceries and
hardware dealers say orders are very
licavv Collections are a llttlo off all along
the line In most of the wholesale houses
trade is reported fair only. Among retail
dealers trudo Is iiulct , even forced sales and
heavy ad\crtlsing hills fall to attract. Thu
weather Is against the retail dealers In al
most every lino.
"Tho Manufacturers ami Consumers asso
ciation is Just now receiving deserved atten
tion from the business publicNo organisa
tion In Omaha has done more to stimulate
local patriotism and homo Industries than
tills. Ono heavy manufacturer says his
business has increased 75 per cent , largely us
u resuit of the active homo Industry
campaigns conducted by the associa
tion. The exposition , May 22 , promises
o be a cumpleto success. 1 regret to hear ,
however , that two or three local Institutions
which have been benefited by the move
ment are too busy to make exhibits. This IM
short-sighted In my judgment.i Nothing
can do more for Omaha und Nebraska than
ix llrst-class exhibit of her homo products
and her homo factory machinery.
"The wrangle over the leasing of the top
floor of the Hoard of Trade to the Com
mercial club should have been avoided by
nil means. The Hoard of Trade needs the
Commercial club worse than the club needs
the Hoard of Trade , ns some of the dissatis
fied spirits of the former organization arc
Unite likely to disc-over. "
I'ACTOKY TACTS.
Note * ConccrnuiK th Mm Who .Make the
\Vhrcln ( in Itoiinit.
Three weeks from tomorrow the manufac
turers exKisltlon | will open In the Coliseum
building in Omaha. During the past week
great progress has iiecn made in the matter
of perfecting the plans for the exposition ,
nnd about all that now remains to bo done is
to place thu machinery and arrange the In
dividual exhibits. About three-fourths of
the space has been contracted for and a. .
peed share of the remaining one-fourth ha
been spokeu for , though no contract has been
,
ftlgncd. Tlirro U no dnnucr but what the
Npnco will nil bo occupied ami n most Inter
esting cxlilblt of Nebraska Industries inudc.
The manufacturers nro Inking oven more In
terest in the move than laM year nnd nro
preparing to put In a good itcat of machinery
and carry on the actual work of manufacture.
Some of these live exhibits , ns they call
those In wlilcli tliu actual work of manufac
ture Is carried on , will be highly Interesting
amt Instructive to the public ,
The manufacturers are striving to show
the people of the state that there 1ms been
progress during the past year , antl that the
factories have grown In slzo anil have Improved -
proved their methods , thus keeping abreast
of the times , for this reason they nro tryIng -
Ing to make nn exhibit that will bo different
from , and an improvement over , the ono
given last year.Vhllu the majority of the
manufacturers nro taking hold and doing all
they can to make the exposition n success ,
there are some who hold back und plead a
rush of business as nn excuse for doing noth
ing. At the same tlmo these manufacturers
are busy because of the homo patronage
movement , and it is poor encouragement for
those who have worked up this movement to
have the llrms that have been benefited re
fuse to do anything to keep the movement
going. In the long run the tirms that do not
take up their share of the work win bo the
'osers. as the people will forgot , the llrms
hat do not snow themselves at the annual
xposltlon.
The attendance of country merchants will
jo large , and they will become acquainted
ivltti the llrms that mak-j exhibits , while
hose that an- not represented will bo lost
Ight of. Hesldes , every buyer wishes to do
> u.slncss with the most enterprising tirm In
Mcli line of business , and the supposition Is
.ba't the firm that goes to the trouble of
Making an attractive and interestingoxhiblt
if Us goods and method of manufacture must

Altout a car of strawberries was received

record for a cold day.
Irvine Mitchell of the Vinton , la. , I'ro-

Local fruit houses are In receipt of a irood

J. C. Furr of the Chicago Produce com
pany at Yankton was in the city the other
day and reported that the\ are getting good
country roll butter there at III cents.
Williams it Cross .iropromis..l a comiifii-
incnt of jessamine buds from Texas. Hraneh
t Co. did the jessamine business last year ,
but found It too wearing on the nerves.
10. U. Klmball , manager of the Creamery
Package company of Kansas City , was in the
city and reported that there are quite heavy
shipments of now butter being made from
southern Kansas to eastern markets.
The Klrschbraun-ilaskell Produce com
pany have opened a branch at Lincoln. U is
under the management of Henry Teigler ,
who formerly represented the Fremont
Iliittcr and Kirg company on the line of the
Klkhorn railroad.
S. M. Harris lias returned from a trip to
Texas and Is greatly pleased with the coun
try. Crops of all Kinds are good , lie visited
the irreat pear farm of 11. M. Stringfellovv at
Hitchcock , about ten miles trom Galveston ,
where there are 12.000 pear trees now loaded
with fruit.
A local fruit man observes that no one Is
very enthusiastic over the profits made in
apples the past season. Lust fall apples
were said to bo very scarce , and as usual
when there Is a scarcity of anything the op
portunities for losing money appear to have
been unusually good.
The Importations of bananas during the
month of March were very largo , with the
striking feature that Now Orleans received
moro bananas than all the other ports or the
country put together , The figures are as
follows : Now Orleans , 48D.81H bunches ;
New York. 284.281 bunches ; Philadelphia.
107,557 bunches ; Boston , 07.US bunches ;
Hultimoro , OU.4UO bunches : total , 1,142,203
bunches.
U. Purvis received a shipment of butteryes-
terday that was quite a curiosity. The butter
was put up in prints and had the appearance
of being something extra good. When the
rolls were cut open It was found that the
butter only extended In for about half an
Inch , while the center of the rolls consisted
of some unknown white substance. Decep
tion of this kind has been reported In the
east , but this is the flr.st Instance reported
in this city.
The scarcity of butter and the consequent
hlgti prices are giving the oleo men a good op
portunity to got in their work , and they do
not appear to bo at all backward about
taking advantage of the situation. With
butter as scarce as it is ono would expect to
see an active demand , but the fact that
there is nothing of the kind shows very
plainly that the pcopio are not consuming
the genuine article.
Davenport , la. , strawberry growers are
not altogether happy , according to ono of
them wlio has been prominent as a producer
of the best berries in the market for several
years The dry weather of last fall killed
the yomur plants that were being rooted to
make a new bed for this year , in other
places the snow of the past winter drifted
olT the old beds and left them unprotected ,
and damage was done there. Some old beds
and some now ones .look well and promise to
fruit well , but a great big bounteous crop ,
enough to feed all Chicago and Davenport
besides , is not expected this summer.
The amount of fruit grown in Georgia is
rapidly increasing , and should it continue to
increase In the same proportion as of late It
will not bo long before Georgia will bo among
the largest , if not the- largest , peach state in
the union. Fort Vulle.v , ( ia. . is ono of the
largest shipping points in the state. The
bulk of the crop will be shipped toNowYork ,
Philadelphia and Now England points , ami
some fruit will bo evaporated , but compara
tively little , as the southern growers cannot
seem to compete with the California
evaporated fruits , ami most of the evaporators -
orators will probably remain closed.

Waterloo DumiicriU * Claim Hint Their New
1'oitm.iMcr U ii Iti'pnlil.can.
The old timo.Iacksonian democrats of the
little suburban city of Waterloo are all torn
up , while many of them have painted their
faces black to indicate that their hearts are
bad. Not only have they done this , but they
have unsheathed their scalping knives and
have declared that ono man must come down
from his high position , or else the face of the
palo moon will bo streaked with gore. This
trouble has all been brought about by the
appointment of J. L. Oenton as | > oslinastcr
of the burg.
Not long ago there was a good staunch re
publican handling the mall sacks that
readied tno town. Shortly after Grover
Cleveland moved into the presidential chair ,
the Waterloo democrats commenced to cry
out for a change , arguing that they should
have a postmaster of their own political
faith. There were an.\ number of men who
were spoiling for an opportunity to cancel
the great Colombian stamps and answer
culls at the delivery window , but there was
a slight row on hand , and while it was brew
ing Dcuton slipped In and picked off the
plums. Ho was duly commissioned before
the followers of democracy knew that ho
was In the field , ami as soon as that commis
sion was In his ( tosltion he took full posses
sion of the equipment of the otllco.
Tills act opened the eyes of the democrats ,
and they commenced to us > k each other what
had happened The wisest man of the town
could not tell , for all he know was that Denton -
ton was there. Now Indignation meetings
nre being held , wnilo the workers have for
mulated n petition which they have for
warded to the ixiwersthal be , residing , set
ting up the statement that Demon is a re
publican , always has been and always will
be one. They not only charge this , but they
claim that ho was one of the workers last
fall , going so far us to be a member of the
convention which nominated Dave Mercer
for congress.
