Living Comrades Recall Ones More the Deeds
of the Soldier Dead ,
MEMORIAL DAY OBSERVANCE IN OMAHA
Decoration of ( Jraven 111 the Morning Ux-
crclicii at lluniicoin I'ark Street
J'nrado by .Military C'onimnlci )
Otlicr IVaturcs.
It Is fho custom of the Grand Army of the
Republic on the day preceding Memorial day
to place on the graves of all the soldier dead
tiny flags , to dcslgnato them for decoration ,
and yesterday morning several hundred of
these pretty plants lent now beauty to the
cemeteries of the city , even before the ar
rival of the wagons , whoso profusion of
bloom and fragrance was soon to cover the
mounds thus marked from sight.
As In prov'ous years a list of the dead had
been carefully prepared and the graves
diligently Bought out , and If the resting
place of n single hero was pawed by It was
only by melancholy accident.
The rain of Tuesday night gave a freshness
to the sunny air of the morning and washed
those acres where the veterans sleep to a
clean and livid green as a priming for their
floral Investment.
At an early hour the committee from the
Woman's Relief corps , escorted by a detail
from the several Grand Army posts , re
paired to the cemeteries anil performed the
work of decoration with art abundance of
llownrs contributed by the schools of
the city and collected the day before.
In Forest Lawn , after the decorating of the
graves of the favored dead , a national salute
was II red from the little eminence where the
four cannon stand a * silent guards of the
BOldlera' plot. In the other cemeteries there
were no exercises , the program being simply
to distribute the Honors and return to tlio
city.
THOUSANDS AT TIH3 PARK.
Heldom has Hanscom park seen a larger
crowd than the one that turned out yester
day afternoon to participate In the annual
memorial services In honor of a nation's
dead.VIillo the green sward showed un
mistakable signs of suffering from the pro
tracted drouth , the park offered an ln\ltlng
welcome to the thousands who sought Its
eliudo and refreshing breezes as a relief
from the oppressive rays of a summer sun
ml the dust and turmoil of the streets , and
although It was an utter Impossibility for
my considerable part of the number to get
close enough to the stand to hear the ad
dress of the day , or any of the oratorical
part of the program , there was nothing to
bar their enjoyment of the music. It was
estimated that fully 11,000 people disported
themselves on the gently sloping hillsides
nd took advantage to * the fullest extent of
the outing that the sacred holiday afforded
them.
The program differed little from that of
former years , and there was little said that
has not been often Bald before , yet the un
usually largo turnout and the attention
which was accorded bespoke most plainly
the warm sentiment of the mass of the people -
plo and the growing Interest in Memorial
day. There seemed to be a deeper appre
ciation of the herloc deeds of those who
yielded up their lives on liberty's altar In
the hour of the nation's trial , and the lesson
of patriotism and unselfish devotion to the
flag found lodgment In hearts more re
sponsive than over before. The children
were Imbued to an unusual degree with the
patriotic spirit the day Inspired , but the
sentiment was by no means confined to
them , aa those whoso memories could run
back to the times when the. scenes of the
civil war were enacted seemed to recall llio
dark days with a vividness not experienced
for years , and drew from the recollection
renewed Inspiration for better citizenship
and thankfulness that the republic still
lives undivided and Intact.
The plan followed In former years , of hav
ing the veterans participate In the inarch
from the business center to the partf , was
done away with on account of the Increasing
years of the members of the Grand Army
and the arduousness of the march , and the
more satisfactory one of having them meet
the line at the entrance to the park was
adopted.
The line moved shortly before 2 o'clock
from the corner of Fifteenth and Douglas ,
headed by the Seventh Ward band of
twenty-six pieces. Next marched the Thurs-
ton Rifles , proudly bearing the now flag
presented them last Monday evening , and
behind them the Omaha Guards , In dress
uniforms with white duck trousers and
white helmets.
Carriages following the military companies
contained disabled members of the various
posts. In one carriage , furnished by Comrade
William Wallace , were General John Dennis ,
who Is so much of a sufferer from heart dis
ease that he cannot walk ; Ca'ptaln Gardner ,
who Is crippled In the legs , and Comrade
Kettler , the patriarch of U. S. Grant post ,
who Is 80 years of ago and a veteran of
more than sixty years standing. Ho wa
a soldier In the Prussian army In 1832 , par
ticipated In the Texas revolution and Is a
veteran of the Mexican and civil wars.
The line was followed by scores of private
carriages , which drew back at the corner of
Park and Woolworth avenues to allow the
Grand Army posts and Woman's Relief corps
to join the column.
The police had with difficulty kept an
avenue clear from the entrance to the park
to the band stand , which was * also the
speakers' rostrum , and thither Dr. W. II.
Christie , acting officer of the day , directed
the column. The Thurston Rifles executed a
few evolutions In the somewhat cramped
quarters In front of the stand , and a detail
was sent to guard the spot whereon had been
'erected the mound and monument around
which the ritual service of the Grand Army
was to bo conducted.
EXERCISES AT THE STAND.
The band played Ucyer's "Recollections of
War" as the opening number of the pro
gram , followed by a fervent prayer by Rev.
.Frank W. Foster for continued peace , better
citizenship , closer compliance with divine In
junction and final rest In a country where
warfare Is unknown.
After the singing of the memorial hymn
by the Glee club , under the direction of
1'rof. Leo G , Kratz , who , by the way , com
posed the music , the orator of the day , Cap
tain C. D.- Adams of Superior , senior vice
commander of the Nebraska department of
the Grand Army of the Republic , was Intro
duced. The address was somewhat lengthy ,
but was full of Interest and patriotic senti
ment. The application of the lesson of the
occasion was varied with reminiscent hls-
torlal sketches of events on the Mississippi ,
in "the. Wilderness , before Richmond , at
Lookout Mountain , and of the march to the
Hea. The utterances of the speaker \\ero
frequently applauded , and all who wcro able
to got within hearing of his voice remained
there until the completion of the old story
told anew.
Following another selection by the band ,
the Glco club sung "Tho Vacant Chair" In
a highly acceptable manner. The posts then
reformed their lines and proceeded with the
baud to the burial plot , where the ritual
service was conducted under direction of J.
A. GlllCBple , olllcer of the ganrd. The Im
pressive rites were witnessed by thousands
-who occupied points of vantage on the hill-
sldcs to the west and southward. The plac
ing of flowers on the mound was done by a
BiTmbor of children , both boys and girls. The
ealuto waa fired by the entire company of
Omaha Guards , Instead of by n platoon of
eight , as heretofore , and the deafening vol
leys rang far out over the city ,
The Glee club sang "Tenting on the Old
Camp Ground , " after which the vast con
course swelled the familiar strains of
America , " and Ilev. D. K. Tlndalt pronounced -
nounced the benediction ,
At the conclusion of the memorial services
the band gave a concert , rendering the fol
lowing program excellently :

FIGURES FROM THE LAST CENSUS
No Itcanon Why the Kantcrn State * Should
Jlato H Monopoly of Manufacturlnc
Went U ( Inliiliif * nnd Nobrimbu
tthonld llnvo Her Share ,
The enthusiastic citizens of the state , who
have been working during the past two years
to stimulate and encourage manufacturing
In Nebraska , have been frequently met with
the assertion that It would be Impossible to
make a manufacturing state of Nebraska.
It has been urged that the manufacturing In
dustries Were so deeply rooted In the east
that It would be Impossible to move them
westward , and that any efforts put forth In
that direction would be time nnd energy
thrown away.
Figures based on the liMt census arc now
at hand to provo that Nebraska has made
rapid strides In the development of her man
ufacturing Interests during the past. Divid
ing up the states of the union Into groups ,
It Is found that from 1SSO to 1S90 the great
est Increase In manufacturing took pl.icc In
the northwestern states. The Increase In
the capital employed In manufacturing In
these states was 252.7 per cent , while the
Increase In the product was 1C1 per cent.
During the same period the New England
states gained only 88.7 per cent In capital
jnil 54 per cent In product , the middle At
lantic states 117.3 and 61.2 per cent and the
central northern states 175.5 and 93.5 per
cent. These three groups of stated have In
the past produced the great bulk Of all the
manufactured goods turned out In the United
States , but the above figures would seem to
ndlcatc that the northwestern states must
scorn come Into prominence as a manufactur
ing district , If the ratio of Increase shown
by the last census Is maintained.
The following will show the Increase In
both capital and product as shown by thu
census of 1890 over 1S80 In the different sec
tions of the country :

The states Included under the head of

South Dakota. While these states as a
whole have shown the greatest tncreaso of
any section of the country , Nebraska has
led all the northwestern states. None of
the older states have made anything like the
Increase In percentage of gain that Ne
braska has. While Nebraska has made such
rapid strides In the past ten years , she still ,
as a matter of fact , ranks low in the list of
manufacturing states. These figures do not
tend to show that this state has already
become a great manufacturing state , but
only the possibilities of the future. They
will serve , however , to refute the statement
made , even by some business men , that Ne
braska cannot hope for any great growth
along the line of manufacturing.
The following , showing the amount of cap
ital Invested In manufacturing and the value
of the product for 1890 , will give an oppor
