A Jobber who IIIIN been out over the t-tnt

supposed that the shoit cropi and low
piiceH haphuud the fnimcis where the }
could not nffotd to piirclint-e more than
thn bare necessities. On this oilier hand
the funnels have done very HttliS corn
plaining about Ihi- hard tlrney , and then
imvu been no calls the past winter from
any section of the slntp foi help , whlcl
would have been the on If the fin mots
wcro In such poor condition llnanoinlly us
generally supposed. THe jobber rneatlnnei
e.tptnlnsthe dttmtlon thus ; "The droilll

they will not soon foigct. They had conit
Into the habit of gionlni ; coin , and ono 01
two other crops , and of hujlng everythln ;
else from the store. Many large farmers
did not pretend to grow their own potatoes
nnd gardens were scarce ; It was so muel
easier to buy tomatoes and other cannei
Roods than to inlj-c them. The farmers
did not even grow enough beans to snpplj
their own tables , but obtained their .suppl >
from the local stores , which ordered Iron
the Omaha Jobbers , who had them shlppei
In from thu east or from California. The
loirs of the corn crop of 1S3I left the fnrrners
without the means of buying UK usual , am
In consequence they had to go on hhal
rations until a new crop could be grown. '
* I ast year every farmer made a great
effort to grow everything that lie wouli
icqulro for the support of hH fnmllv , am
with good success. This elmncc of'pollc >
on the part of the Nebraska farmer- , ac
cording to the Investigating jobber , has
caused the Omaha grocery houses the loss-
of no fctnall amount of trnde. The InrniBr
does not have to Iruv nearly so much In
the line of canned fruits and vegetables
dried fruits , etc. , as formerly , nor li he
buying us much fresh fruit and vegetables
as the wholesale fruit and produce houses
can testify to.
This moans , for the time being u.lo s of
business , hut In the end It will bo a goo <
thing- because It will Inc-caso the farmer's
purchasing power when u comes to other
Ilnc-4 of gqoda and will leave more wealth
in the Ftnte.
Ftnte.1JANK
1JANK CJ-EARINGS.
The bank ilearlngs continue to show a
f gratifying increase over last year , the gain
I * the 2ast wrek being in excess of ZO per cent'
I/Or * \vh.le the nvei.ico gain for the whole coun
try vvas only 98 per cent. Minneapolis
Bhow.s about the largest gain of any city In
the country. 41 per tent , but her gross
clearings art ) only a little over $1,090,0 < X )
greater than Omaha's. Kansas City gains
ZJ-per cent , St. 1'aul 1.6 per cent , St. Joseph
13 uer cent nnd Denver teports a deciease 01
5.4 per cent. It will be noted from this that
Omaha Is keeping pace with other cities In
thlK part of the. country , and no doubt If
id the Hvo stock , business couM he put on 11 =
feet once more would soon forge ahead of
Its , rivals.
If Omaha could secure the live stock ship
ments from Nebraska that rightfully belong
to her It would make a great difference to
the showing that this city would be able
to make. A jobber Is authority for the
statement that the ! o s of business at South
Omaha Is hurting the jobbing trade ol
Omaha. A retail merchant from a town In
the western part of the state was In the
city thq past weelt and remarked that since
nil the stock In his section had commenced
'goingto Kansas City Instead of South
Omaha , It was not so convenient for him to
buy hip goods In Omaha. He said that he
was an Omaha man and regretted to see all
the live stock going away from here , es
pecially as ho was aware that It would
take the trade of a eood many country
merchants with It. A good many retail
merchants arrange It so that they can come
In to buy their goods nt the came time with
a shipment of stock , nnd thus get a pass-
to the city nnd leturn , when otherwlye. they
would have to pay fare. If the stock Is
going to some other city than Omaha that
fact Is an Inducement for the merchant to
make the same change.
COUNTRY I'HODUCB.
The produce mirket of the past week has
been very slow and It Is no easy matter tepee
pee Just why. Some lines of produce are ex
ceptionally low , especially for thl seanon of
the year , as for cxarnple.butter nnd eggs. The
consumption of eggs In this city Is appar
ently the smallest that It has been for sev-
era ! years and at a time when the price
makes eggs about the cheapest article of
food In the whole list. The Hhlpping de
mand , however. Is goodnnd It Is not dim-
cult to keep stock * ? well cleaned up.
With butter the > cape Is not so favorable.
The consumption locally of that commodity
Is also very light , but at the same time the
demand for shipment Is extremely poor even
nt the low prlcc. prevailing. There does not
appear to be any outlet for It In the east.
With poultry It Is quite different. The
rcceiptu are'very light , and as the demand
Is good , values have been forced up so that
arrivals are brlnplng prices that are very
pallr/nctory to shippers. In fact poultry Is
nbout the best selling article on the whole
list of country produce.
The game briPinci-H nt this season of the
year does not amount to anything , there
being hardly anything In that Una hut rab
bit * * , and they are In light demand.

The general subject for discussion will he
how to push Nebraska products to the

more factories and the employment of more
people.
A traveling man from the cast , who was
In the city the past week , was dUcusslns
with a local manufacturer the peculiarity
of American people In always preferring
goods from n distance to those made at
home and uuvo the following IlltiMtatlcm ;
A large shoo manufacturer In a Hinull New
KiiK'aml ' town noticed that none of the
residents of the town , not even his own
iiiployeu ; , vu-re wearing Hhocs madeby him.
It.happened that IrU factory was the only
Industry of any Importance located there.
In fact. It wag the main support of the
town. PhD manufacturer dlscliiuted oil of
hla Ju'lp nnd clo ed his factory. A week
or two went by and the merchant ) * were
beginning to feel the scarcity of money and
finally waited upsn the manufacturer , who
tuolalned that h was tlml of supporting
a ( own that would not support him. It did
not tAke the merchants long to coma to
the cniicluflion tlmt they would carry In
stock the ihoc ninilo in their own town.

omc good buying , the strength being In-
cieased bv a rumor that a cold wave would
Invade the winter wheat legion tonight
and posf'ble damage to the growing crop

Noswindle finds more vvllllniIctlms than
the old one , frequently exposed , of ilcliutlnp-
cieduloiiR Americans with the assertion that
they are heirs to tome IIUKO estates In
I2uiopo and fccurlriR from them money foi-
legal and other o\pensei Incident to Its ,

tions of such swindles have become so hugo-

have thoiiBht It proper to deny olllclal'y
the existence of Mich estates. Such was.
the case with the famous , IetmlMn [ estate ,
the would-be heirs to which were so numerous - .
ous that they , too , formed an International
association and llnall : , canned an Investiga
tion to he made throu'-li the United State *
Department of Slate , with the icsult of
discovering that no Mich estate existed.
The Tovvnely estate , Mippnsed to consist or
tiOOOOOOOO lylnp in thu Hank of Knt-land

It hcems scarcely credible 'hat a .y lorulder- .
able hodv of men could be so Ignorant na
to Imagine that uch an enoirnous sum
could be left for decades Idle and ownerless ,
but the swindlers who Invented the my
thical Townley estate pi oil ted hugely by the
credulity of men of all nat'oii" .
Time and again the delusive nature or
the = e supposed bequests bus been exposed.
Some are merely threwd swindles , other *
spring from honest del'islon. but In either
ca e there are people who profit by them
and who are Interested In keeping up the
humbug. There may be , as an eminent
Ohlcagoan once said , a new "sucker" born.
