IIIEY KEEP COUNTRY STORES Into Bnainosa Men's Association Endorses a Lot of Things and Adjourns. IOME INDUSTRIES PRINCIPLE APPROVED < * orrey llnnkrnptcy I.nw Aluo Find * I'uvor Coinnro for \Vholcnalcr Who Ho- tnlU llonolutlonii Atloptcil lie- eloToil by the Commercial Club. The election of ottlcora was the first thing hat occupied the attention of the State Business Men's association In convention ns- emblcd yesterday mornlngbut Itdld not take eng to settle It , as a motion instructing the ecretnry to cast the full vote of the nssocla- ion for the old ofllcors carried unanimously. The olllcors who were thus elected to sue- "ccd themselves for another year were : r * D. Davidson , Omaha , general president. O. J. King , Lincoln , llrst vlco president. II. J , Leo , Fremont , second vice president. S. S. English , Eagle , third vlco president. R. P. Hodgln , Omaha , general secretary. F. II. More , ICoarnoy , llrst assistant sec retary. S. 11. Colvln , McCook , second assistant C. P. Iddlngs , North Platte , third , assistant secrotary. Tlio greater part of the tltno of the morn- ng session of the last day of the convention was taken up in discussing what should bo done with reference to the collection law. ttid tlio prevailing opinion scorned to be that ; ho law as it now exists should bo amended at the next session of the legislature. It was admitted that thus far the efforts of the association , in tiio way of lobbying had not been attended with the most brilliant suc cess , but It was asserted that this was because the work had been left entirely to the legislative committee and Ignored by the body as a whole , while It should have boon attended to personally by each member through the representatives and senators from tils district. It was agreed that this mlstako should not bo made again , Tulkod of Homo Patronage. Before proceeding with the regular pro- gram for the session \V. A. P.igo ' , preside ! of the Manufacturers and Consumers associ ation , was introduced to speak on "Homo Patronage. 1t 1 " Ho said ho had been devoting 1i the t greater part of his time for several weeks to the exposition that was devoted to the t public ndvocaey of this Wea. Ho called attention to the fact that the majority of i the business men of the state showed plainly that I lu onu particular , at least , ttioy wcro going j outside the state to liavo work dona that I could just as well bo dona at home , and that I was in the use of foreign printed bank checks and drafts. Ho said he had paid close l attention to this for the past year , and had I noticed that drafts that his lirm had re ceived from all over tha state were printed in i St. Louis , Milwaukee , Kansas City or Chicago. I Ho thought this was wrong , as there were houses iu this state that could do the work as well as It could bo doiio any where. It was most fitting that the local printing and newspaper ofllccs should receive - ceivo this patronage , as they were all the time assisting the business men , and ho be lieved that the whole trouble was that the business men had not thought of what was really 'it stake nnd what homo patronage meant. The speaker related a number of incidents to show that the consistent prac tice of the principles advocated by the asso ciation , of which lie was president , would result in mutual benolit to every business man in the state , and called attention to what the effect would bo on a dealer iu a certain line to have a man talk homo patronage - ago to him while wearing apparel , invjrjch his auditor was dealing , that was bought outside the state. DrloKiites Approve the Principle. Mr. H. J. Leo of Fremont said that the as sociation wanted the manufacturers of the state on their side , and ho was glad that the matter had been brought un. Ho thought that the1 principal trouble had been tnat No- brask.i made goods had not been brought to the attention of the merchants as they should have been. After the mooting of the association a year ago there was complaint from Grand Island because factories there had received no notice , but it was the fault of the delegates from that place , who had not mentioned anything about them or brought them to the attention of the mem bers. Ho wanted to sco the manufacturers and retailers get together and como to a bet ter understanding. Mr. Dort of Beatrice said he had tried to educate his trade along the homo patronage idea , and was pleased with the result. Ho wanted to call attention to the fact that his town was turning out as good creamery but ter as could bo gotten anywhere , and also manufactured starch , oat meal and numer ous other articles that ho was pushing. Mr. King of Lincoln was glad to note that Mr. Page was noticing all the Jittlo points , but ho wanted it understood that in his city the checks weru furnished by the banks , and the dealers did not have them printed for their own uso. Ho suggested that the way to reach It was by calling the matter to the attention of the bankers on the occasion of their next convention and ask them to cor rect It and have the printing done in Ne braska. Wliolunalor * Doing Itetull Trade , Mr. Burks of Lincoln said that there was trouble in some places because some of the wholesalers did a retail business in the same places. Ho thought It unfair for a whole saler to como into a town where ho was soiling - ing to a retailer , and supply the hotels , restaurants , or laundries at the saino price as the same goods were sold to tiio retailer. Ho wanted each clas to respect the rights of each other class. Mr. Page said that the little talk that had already been had with the Omaha bunkers had resulted in leaving oft outside imprints on checks , but It had boon ascertained that the printing was .still helm ; done outside the name of tlio printer being loft of by re quest. This showed .hat the bankers uould accede to the demands made , but not yet in the way desired. Mr. Hodgln said tlmt this would bo at tended to , and the banks would bo required to have the name of u Nebraska printing house on the checks. Mr. lliilgoway of Grand Island pleaded guilty to not being an orator , and said that the talking businessmen of his city had boeu unable to get away. Ho spoke of several of tliu factories there , and said ho did not know why they wcro not represented at the ox- position. Ho proposed to inquire into It us soon as ho got home. Tim report of the railway committee was called for , and Mr. Hodgln said that Gen eral Manager Holdrcgo of the B. & M. bad been waited on. lie was surprised to learn tlmt the depots wcra being used by peddlers us distributing points , and had promised that if the other roads would do thu same , he would issue an order prohibiting it. The announcement was greeted with applause , and the report was accepted ami tlio com mittee discharged , For Hotter Collection I.U\VB. Mr. English of Eagle offered u resolution looking to better collection laws. Mr. Hammond of North Platte offered a substitute- resolution , stating that there was no need of uny collection law with the now rating book of the association. Ho said thut the association had mot with poor suc cess in the way of securing desired legisla tion , as tlm labor organizations wora TOO strong , and efforts la that direction hud only tended to antagonize the labor element. Ho thought It hotter to go on the 1107 plan and give no credit except to parties who were certainly good. Mr. King of Lincoln favored the substi tute. tute.Mr. Mr. Wilcoic of McCook said that ro ought to bo a remedy for the collection of accounts now on the books. Ho did not ba- lleve the members would lose anything ay > stuudltig up for their rights and seeking uet- tor legal protection against dead heats. Itof Mr. llobtettor of Sholtou spoke in favor of a good , reasonable collection law , aud wanted the association , when it went after it , to go after it lu earnest. If they did that they > would got It. Mr. Ilawlhigs of Wakofleld said that the rating hook was all right to help from mak ing bad debts , but there ought to bo a col lection law to afford relief after they were contracted. He was confident of it because be wan u democrat , and know what it was to bo out In the cold , and therefore rcatUod that they could pot tHaro ff they only waited long enough. ' Mr. Clarke of North FJatto thought the ratintf book would work , out their salvation In duo time , ns the tfustomors who were In arrears would bo clnmbrinK for n law that would nrotect the merchant in Rlvlnp them greater credit if they were refused such credit according to the book uudar existing law. ] ' I Itnttnc Iloot n 3'itUnncc. B. W. Johnson of Atkinson made a rat- tllnif speech In favor of n' better collection law. Ho said that aecdrdlhR to his belief the rating book was n nutsnnco and a fraud , nnd that It would not afford the relief that was desired , A man might bo nil right now nnd have a good rating , but six months from now ho might bo all wrong , and the book would bo of no assistance in collecting an account that might have boon incurred In the meantime ; neither wouht It avail In col lecting n bill from a man who could pay but wouldn't. Ho didn't take any stock In the talk about a more stringent collection law keeping eastern capital out of the state , nnd for his part wanted to see n law that would put a premium on honesty rather than on dishonesty , Mr. Bishop of Lincoln defended the rating book , but favurod a hotter law. Ho said the prcjcnt one tended to nmko men dishonest , and ho was In favor of legislating the other way. The way It was now , the more a man could heat a creditor out of the better fellow ho was , and ho wanted to sco It so that when n man willfully refused and neglected to pay his bills ho could bo shown up to the com munity in his true light. The sentiment of the delegates was to the effect that the. matter was ot too much Im portance to bo settled so long before the next session of the legislature , nnd the sub stitute was defeated , after which the orig inal resolution was tabled , to nwalt action at the next convention. Mr. Ilawlhigs was appointed chairman of the legislative committee. The committee on the Torroy bankrupt law , consisting of yours. Bishop of Lin- coin , Lee of Fremont anil Notzol of Strains- burg , submitted a report , endorsing the bill , recommending its passage and calling upon Nebraska senators anil representatives in congress to work and vote for it. The re port was adopted , and a recess was taken until 3 o'clock. Virtuot ot Invoicing. At the afternoon session n paper on "In voicing Its Bonollts and Necessity to llotall Alorchants , " was road by Air. John Ilussio of Omaha. Ho hold that in no ono way was a business man's ability and enterprise shown , and by no ono thing was ho better iittod for the next year's business than In the taking of ttio annual Inventory. It Is necessary in order to compare ono year's business with another , and to ascertain the merits of different classes ot goods. It pro vides a basis for satisfactory settlement with the Insurance companies in case of lire , nnd also assists in securing a favorable rating with the mercantile agencies , which is not only desirable , but absolutely essential in successful buying. It insures the clean ing of the shelves and the dusting of goods , and discovers goods that have been lost or gotten out of place. It discloses what bid fair to become shop-worn goods , nnd leads tea a prompt disposition of them , which averts the tying up of r. considerable sum of money where it would be unproductive. The uaperwas applauded , and the Ideas advanced were earnestly endorsed by Messrs. King and Burks of Lincoln , G. S. Benawa of Omaha , S. S. English of Eagle , Fred LoomLs of Omaha , Henderson of Osccola , llawlings of Wakellold , and Leo of Fremont. llonotlt.s of Orcnnlzntlon. Mr. ITostotterof Shelton , palled on to give his views on "Stato Organizations and Their Value , " said that It was'of the utmost im portance that the meetings of the branches bo regularly attended ana that Interest bo maintained in order that tlio state organiza tion bo kept alivo. Ho pointed to the report of the committee on 'railroads ns showing what the state organization could accom plish , and said that it was simply u case where there was strenethi In union even If there was none as Individuals. The good results to bo expected from state organization wcro testified > to by a number of the members. A telegram was then-rend from a number of the business men of'Curtis. Nob. , protest ing against the placing , pu sale there by a St. Joseph wholesale firm elf a stock of goods t iken under a chattel mortgage , and request ing the convention to take some action toward securing its removal or selling it to the local merchants. It was decided to send a latter to the firm setting forth the situ ation , and asking that the local merchants bo given fair treatment in the matter. The following committees were appointed : On State Trade J. C. Dort. Bui-chard ; E. J. Pease , Hastings ; W. E. Babcock. Cam bridge ; H. A. Scott , Osccola ; J. C. Boweu , Broken Bow. On State Legislation Thomas Rawlings , Wakefield ; J. S. Bishop , Lincoln ; George Schweser , David City ; M. A. Hosteller. Shelton ; Ed G.Yates , Lincoln.

Wo meet hero to night associates and friends with a view of building up a social comity between the busi ness men of our state nnd the merchants of the metropolis. The aim ot the commercial club as Its name signifies , Is to blend social features with our business cares. In thcso fraternal mlngllnes upon a piano of mutual converse It Is reasonable tohopo for benefits , not only from the social order , but from tlio lights and shadows of the past wo may ex change ideas gathered from experience that will guide and strengthen our future foot- stops. "Wo need the strengthening Infiucnco of some council llko this. In the building up of such an organization as the Commercial club there is strength alike safe to the In dividual , the corimration and the stato. A great metropolis within the state is n tower of developing the natural resources of that state , not only ns n market and distributing center , but through its great financial In stitutions , banks , insurance and trust com panies the sinews of war are furnished to turn the wheels of commerce without depending - pending upon Boston , Hartford or Wall street. "Our interests , gentlemen of Nebraska , nro identical with yours. Wo vote for thu saino state ofllclals , our business relations are alike , our social meetings should bo based upon u common friendship. A crowd Is not com pany , faces are but a picture gallery , and talk Is but a tinkling cymbal , when there is not friendship. Omaha has passed the ex perimental stage as a wholesale market. Wo welcome you not only as customers but wo extend to you the right hand of fellowship and ask you to be associate members of our Commercial club. " J. S. Bishop of Lincoln responded in a happy speech , in which he voiced the deep appreciation of Omaha hospitality. Im promptu speeches were made by Edward Yates of Lincoln , J. S.

Money Is scarce in Omaha , why raako it anymore so by sending the money you make to Minneapolis for Hour , when by purchasing the Omaha Milling company's ' Kolianco ( lour you will bo getting the best and at the same tlmo aid in building up homo industries. Tliu Kclianco brand Is .becoming very popular bv reason of its excellence and the people of Omaha are showing by a liberal patronngo tholr appreciation of a good thing. During the past week 191,000 "pounds of Reliance Hour was sold for delivery. A very interest ing exhibit of the Kellnnco flour may bo seen at the exposition where it is attracting a good deal of attention. People who have never used this flour uro given an opportunity to test its good qualities by sampling biscuits 1 made from it in the Omaha Milling company's booth. Crcto Kollcr .mils. Nebraska floar is well represented at the exposition , and the CrotoKoller Mills are represented lu a manner that shows a com mendable enterprise. ' Kxaot reproductions or the "A" and "B" mills in miuituro nave been erected , and oven to the painting they resemble the originals. These Crete mills are run by water power , and their combined capacity is 000 barrels of Hour dally. The splendid reputation which the output of thcso mills enjoys throughout the state Is dua to the watchful care which the proprie tor , C. C. Whlto , uses iu conducting the mills. Ho recognizes that "patronize homo industry" is an effective slogan only when it is backed up with an article which will equal anything offered in the s.imo market. Mr. White was tht first miller fn the state , and ono of the flrst in this country , to adopt the new bolting device known as the "plan- sifter" method. It is a Hungarian Invention and now all the ilrst-cluss mills are adopt ing it. The Crete Roller Mills flour is used very extensively In this city , where Its excellence is well known. Tiio "Victor" brand is the loader , and it has no superior in any flour placed upon the Nebraska market. Ullman'd Flour and Flowers. It is n rather dlfilcult matter to arrange n very attractive showing of ordinary Hour sacks , but Charles E. Block , manager for S. F. Oilman , has succeeded In embellishing his exhibit , in the exposition in a way that attracts attention. Flowers , plants and vines are arranged around and among the sacks in a manner which lends an air of freshness and charm to an otherwise dry subject. Two largo p.iin lings , ono of tlto mill at Pierce and the other of the Valentino mill , grace either side of the booth and add their share to the embellishment ol the dis play , The capacity uf these two mills is about 400 barrels daily , the product being exclusively hard wheat ( lour. In this city tlioS. F. Gilman Hour is very well imown and extensively used , the Gold Medal brand being the leader. For a number of years tliosu mills have had largo warn rooms at 1013 , 1015 and 1017 North Sixteenth street , from where the greater part of tholr Hour is placed upon the market. S. E.
