Thorn Are Discounts nnd DlncountB.
It Is almost an hourly occurrence In our
store to hear some customer argue the fact
that at some place they can get a discount of
10 or 12',4 per cent. For the benefit of the
general public wo wish to state that our
shoes are marked In plain figures at such
prices that we cannot give a discount to any
body , not oven dealers. Had we arranged
fcr a discount trade wo would have been
compelled to add 10 per cent to the selling
price In order to take It off , which would bo
a simple matter , as you well know.

"Last Sunday , " says Rev. T. E. Cramblet

year of our work In Omaha , While wo- are
conscious of the fact that inoro ought to
have been done , we nevertheless take en
couragement from the visible results ot our
labors In this confessedly difficult field , and
wo think wo speak advisedly. I have never
known a preacher among those who are now
In the city , nnd these who have labored here
In the past , who had the least hesitation
In making this assertion. This Is true of
every denomination operating In Omaha.
Some ot the causes of this condition of things
wo might name , but our purpose In this ar
ticle runs In another direction. We started
out to speak of the visible results of our work
In the First church. In addition to the es
tablishment of the Grant street church , and

NEBRASKA MANUFACTURERS

Potter Quarters.
READY-MADE CLOTHING A NEW FEATURE
An Industry Hint Might Support Thousnmlg
. In I'luco of the Hundreds Now Km-
ployed \ \ hero Nebraska I'oople
, lluy Tnolr Clothing.
The Omaha manufacturers ot worklngmen's
uck clothing , shirts , cnsslmero pants , etc. ,
ro forging ahead lit splto ot dull times and
hort crops. There are four firms In Omaha
ngagcd In this line of manufacture , com
monly known as overalls factories. They are
Catz-NevoiiB company , M. E. Smith & Co. ,
tllpatrlck-Koch Dry Goods company and
( Ing & Smcad , The two first mentioned are
now seeking new and larger quarters to make
coin for the growth of their business , whllo
ho remaining two report a prosperous trade
hat will force them In time to Increase their
> lants.
M. E. Smith & Co. have In the past given
ip the two upper floors In their wholesale
dry goods house for manufacturing purposes ,
> ut this space baa become too cramped and
hey ore now moving the factory across the
treet Into Dr. Mercer's building at the corner
of Eleventh nnd Howard streets. This will
give them four floors , 66x132 feet , with splen-
Itd light and every convenience that could bo
desired ,
A largo force of men are now engaged In
putting In the tables , shafting , etc. , for 230
nachlnes. The first floor will be given up to
ho manufacture of overalls and that class ot
goods , whllo the second floor will be used as a
shirt factory. The two upper floors will be
ised for store room and other purposes. Every
convenience that can be devlssd for a factory
of that kind Is being put In , and Mr. Tlbbs
says that they will have the finest and best
equipped factory west of Chicago.
The transfer from the old to the new fac-
ory will bo made gradually , so as not to In
terfere with the filling of orders. The com-
lany estimates that the change will put U
n shape to double Its output as the trade
may demand It. The number of employes
will bo gradually Increased.
ANOTHER NEW ONE.
Katz-Nevcns company has leased the Pad
lock building at the corner of Eleventh nnd
Douglas streets , nnd Is preparing to move
Into Ita new quarters about the first of the
year. This will give It five floors , 66x132
feet , nnd It Is preparing to Increase Its
capacity about 25 per cent. The building was
formerly used as a shoe factory and Is well
calculated for manufacturing purposes. Mr.
Nevens says that no trouble or expense will
> 3 spared In making the factory as complete
as possible.
During the past few months the company
: ias been turning out the cheaper grades of
ready made clothing. In addition to the regu
lar lines of goods usually made by an over
alls factory. As scon as It Is established
n Its new quarters it will enlarge this
branch and make a full line of ready mode
clothing of all grades up to $10 per suit , which
will cover four-fifths of the ready made cloth-
ng used In the west.
This Is practically a new line of manufac-
ure for the west , and one that promises much
lor the city. .The money sent out of the state
for clothing every year runs Into the hundreds
of thousands of dollars. Mr. Nevens soys that
Tree wool has made It possible to buy much
setter gooda for the same money , the reduc-
lon In the price amounting to from 15 to 20 per
ant at the mills. The strong competition In
the east has led the clothing manufacturers
there to turn out an Immense amount of
shoddy goods , and tie | people are tired of that
kind of stuff. The west , according to Mr.
Nevens' Idea , demands a good class of goods ,
: he people will buy where they can be sure of
getting only good goods. For these reasons
Ur. Nevcns believes that the present Is a good
: lme to Introduce this branch of manufacture
Into Nebraska.
WHAT THE OTHERS ARE DOING.
The Kllpatrlck-Koch Dry Goods company
started Its factory about a year ago and
has gradually Increased Its business , until
now It has double the output that It
started with. It finds that there Is a good
demand for first class goods In the west , and
that there la a growing dlstasto for the
cheaply made eastern goods. The people of
the west want full sizes and first class goods
made up In the strongest and most durable
style. The best trade Is cast of the Rocky
mountains In eastern Colorado and Wyoming ,
Nebraska and South Dakota. West of the
mountains Omaha manufacturers come Into
competition with the cheap goods made by
Chinese labor. The factory belonging to the
Kllpatrlck-Koch Dry Goods company Is lo
cated In East Omaha and was built by the
Robinson Notion company for Its own use.
It Is considered a model factory o [ Its kind ,
Mr. King ot the firm ot King & Smead said
The Bee deserved a good deal of credit for
waking up the merchants In the state to the
fact that It Is to their own advantage to pat
ron Izo homo manufacturers. Their factory Is
located In the Bemls building , near the north
end of the Eleventh street viaduct. They re
port a very good trade and say that they arc
selling all the goods that they can make.
Trade In Washington , which Is usually a very
good field for Omaha manufacturers , Is a little
slow at the present time , owing to the fact
that wheat , their main crop , Is bringing only
IS to 25 cents per bushel.
SHOULD PATRONIZE HOME.
While this branch of manufacturing Is In a
very prosperous condition , It Is nothing to
what It might , bo If the people of Nebraska
would buy all their goods of the homo manu
factories. At the present time there are 475
people employed by the overalls factories In
Omaha , and that Is about all that there arc
In the state , as the business up to the pres
ent time Is practically confined to this city.
The Bee requested a number of business men
who are well Informed regarding this line ot
business to estimate/ / the proportion of the
goods used In this state that are of home
production. They all arrived at the same con
clusion , namely , that the Omaha overalls fac
tories are tupplylng only about 10 per cent of
the goods In their line used In the slate. The
most conservative estimated that fully 4,000
people could bo employed In this branch of
manufacture If the merchants of Nebraska
would only bo public spirited enough to buy
ot the home manufacturer ; . It has been dem
onstrated that the larger the trade that a Ne
braska factory has In the state the better
trade It can command In other states , so that
nn additional thousand people would bo re
quired at least to take care of the outs.de
business. That would mean a total ot 5,000
people employed In one line of manufacture.
As n matter of fact , a large number of
the employes In an overalls factory arc girls ,
but they earn good wages , and the amount of
money put In circulation nt homo would be n
vast help to business of all kinds. A girl Is
not counted a hand at an overalls factory until
she has worked there a year and learned the
business. By that time they have become
fairly proficient , and In the Omaha factories
average $6 to $0 per week , and tome of the
most expert make ns high as $12 per week.
This Is for a week of six days of eight hours
each. The work Is not of that character that
tends to wreck the body or distract the mind ,
but Is as easy as most any kind of work can
be. Power js supplied at all the factories , so
that the work consists of sitting at the ma
chines and simply directing the goods , start
ing and stopping the machines.
"Nebraska merchants whine about the loss
of the goods of this class of manufacture from
St. Joseph , St. Louis , Chicago , Dubuque ,
Qulncy , III. , nnd other points. St. Joseph Is
the largest manufacturing point ro far as
this class of goods Is concerned In the west.
They employ over 2,000 people In their over
alls factories and a large share of their trade
comes from Nebraska.
"Nebraska merchants whine about the loss
of crops In this state , " said n business man ,
"but the occasional loss of a crop would be
a small matter If the Industries were devel
oped as they might be nnd the money kept at
home. As It Is the merchants send about all
the money that they .get out of the state , and
when there comes a loss of crops there Is no
money left In the state and times become
about as bad as they could be. Omaha retail
merchants are wont to mention other western
cities as being better retail points than
Omaha , but how could they expect It to be
otherwise when other cities are building up
their manufacturing Industries and keeping
hundreds of people at work with the money
sent from Omaha , whllo our own people have
a hard time to find work. Most every retail
merchant In Omaha Is pushing the tods male
by the overalls factories of other cities Instead
of goods made at home. "
