What He Will Mo for Them.
SP1UNQFIKLD , III. , Oct 0. Congressman
Bprlngor spoke tonight at a largo demo
cratic meeting at Illvcrlon , a coal mining
settlement near here. Ho devoted a large
portion of his speech to Iho subject of the
tariff on coal and the benefits that would
result to the mlnera of Illinois and the west
generally If the democratic policy of free
coal and rcclprocltr with Canada should
prevail. In the course of his Bpeech Mr.
Springer said : "No miner In this region can
be benefited , by a tariff on foreign coal. We
propose to admit Canadian coal Into this
country frcfl If Canada will receive our coals
Into that country free. The democratic
party will probably pass the free coal reci
procity at the next session of con
gress. This would open up central and
northwestern Canada BA a market for Illinois
and Indiana coals. Chicago and Cleveland
would become the shipping points lor this
coal. The products of Lake Superior nnd
Canadian ports shipped to Chicago , Toledo
ami Cleveland consist mainly ot Iron ore and
lumber. The ships must go back almost
empty. II they oould carry coal back the
freights on coal would be almost nominal ,
ionoo this reciprocity trade between Cana
dian ports and ports In the United States
would vastly Increase the demand ( or coal
In the states of Illinois , Indiana and Ohio.
What Is most desired by the miners of
these states Is free trade In coal with
Canada. This the democratic party will
obtain at the very earliest time practicable
unless we arc prevented by the election of
6. republican congress , which Instead ot giv
ing1 us free coal and reciprocity with
Canada , will give us 76 cents protection on
foreign coal and CO cents prohibition on our
coal entering Canada. "

In February , 1SSI. the Omaha Carpel Co.
began business at 1G11 Douglas , occupying
only the first door , 20x132 feet , nnd the base
ment , 20xC5. In a short time the third floor ,
ZOxCS feet , was added , but this being more
room than needed at the time a part'of It
was sublet , but coon again more room was
rq'.ilred and nil of the third floor xvas put In
u3. which gave them ample room until the
fall of 1SS8 , when It was found necessary to
have still more room , and the second floor.
20xC5 feet , was added , giving them the en
tire building , which gave them ample facili
ties to handle their trade for six years.
During the last year , however , thslr tr.ids
has steadily Increased , both In the retail and
wholesale lines , notwithstanding the busi
ness depression , which has been general all
over the country , until they felt obliged to
get a larger store , In order to properly han
dle their business.
Early In July negotiations were begun to
secure the four-story and-basement building
at 1515 Dodge street , having a frontage of
twenty-two feet and a depth of 120 feel ,
leaving a twelve-foot sidewalk In the alley
for shipping nml receiving goods.
Satisfactory terms wens made with the
owner to remodel the building to suit Hie
business and to put In a steam heating plant ,
the alterations and repairs costing -about
J3.000. One can hardly recognize the store.
so great have been the changes that make It
as flno a carpet store as can bo seen any
where. The front is entirely new and fin
ished In the latest design , and Is one of I tin
handsomest In the city. The vestlbula floor
la beautifully tiled and the naino ot the com
pany placed In the tiling.
On entering the sloro the first thing that
attracts attention IB the largo and commo
dious office on the west side , the balance
of this floor being used for displaying In
grains from1 the lowest to the medium
price ; the drapery room. Is also on this
floor , the stock In which Is now very largo
and Includes all the novelties of the season
In , fine and medium-priced goods.
The basement Is used for storing the heavy
goods , such as oilcloths , linoleums , mattings ,
window shades , window poles , etc. No
goods are shown In the basement.
The second floor Is where the best grades
of ingrains and 3-ply carpets are shown ,
together with the tapestry brussels. In the
rug room on this floor will be found the
costliest oriental rugs 'or the cheapest
Smyrna.
On the third floor la where the stock of
flne goods la kept , which can not bo ex
celled west of Chicago Wiltons , Axmln-
stors , velvets , nioquottes and body brussels
In I all grades and qualities are hero dis
played.
Half ot the fourth floor Is used t6r the
making up of carpets , while the other half
Is I devoted to the manufacture of window
shades and storing of Bhado stock which ,
being a special feature of their business , Is
the largest In the city.
The active members of the Omaha Carpet
company are J , W. Stewart , vlco president ,
and 1) . D. Miller , secretary and general man
ager , the latter of whom has held this re
sponsible position since the company was first
organized and has made friends and busi
ness for his house until It now ranks second
to none In the entire west. In this he
has been ably assisted by Mr. Stewart who
has entire charge of the salesrooms , and who
has furnished some o ( the most beautiful
designs In home decoration over produced.

as If Qus May , her driver , would never get
her away. Coming down for the fifteenth
tlmo he got her steady , and although she
got oft In the last division , before n furlong

was pure and faultless , and without being
struck a lick she swept past her Hold of
brilliant youngsters , nnd before the half
mlle polo wan reached she was leading by
two full lengths , She wns never In trouble ,
and came hcme an easy winner , with four
lengths to spare. The second and third

The calamity crusaders have at last struck

effort to raise funds to use In boosting
their candidate , Tom Majors , Into the gubcr-
notarial chair. They have placed petitions
In to me of the banks In the city , where pa-
trona are solicited to sign and contribute to
the fund.
William Wallace , cashier of the Omaha
National bank , a man who has
been very active In the canvass ,
called at the Commercial National
bank today , where ho urged the Barker broth
ers to efgn the roll and contribute funds.

in a majority of Instances ( he members have
been Informed that Holcomb was good enough
for them.

Whut They May of Us.
The following Is from the New York Dally
Dry Goods Record , and shows what a reputa
tion one of Omaha's merchants has obtained
In the cast :
"Do you ever see The Omnha Sunday Bee ?
Il'a . a hummer , and Hayden Bros. , the largest
retailers of dry goods , silks , notions , fancy
goods and articles , disclose on the front page
that they are hustling hummers. They
have a well displayed "Ad. " that tells an In
teresting t story In every lino. Their estab
lishment Is the "Bon Marcho" of that longi
tude , for as wo read It we become more In
terested In noting the prices and wonder
liow they can como to this market , buy
coods. send them BO many hundred miles ,
pay all the attending charges , and then Eel )
them at prices that are current here. They
do It. though , but how. they do It Is the
secret ot their business success. "
