The flrt emotion that. prevaIte In Omaha
'when the news of the passage of the expo
nftion bill came over the wirc wa of mi
bOUflkd ( gratlocatlon. People were content
to know that the flrst great obstacle hn4
bcen RurmoLinted and for FOmo tIme they
were too excited an(1 enthusiastic to nslc
themselves exactly what wa to follow.
They have now had time to iligest their
aathfnctlon and every ono is looking arouml
_ to see where tlio first tangible beneflt i
going to strike.
ft may be safely said that ninety-nine
men out of every 100 have figured out the
problem. The conservative bualncs3 man
does not expect that a boom wilt follow the
act of congress , but lie locs beltevo that
this is the wedge that will bring other re-
aults In their natural order. It ts hot
difficult for the average business man to ace
r how ho Is going to reap the benefit of a
movement that he believes will at least ho
prolitic of conhltlenco in the future of
Omaha , not only on the part of the citizens ,
but of those who have their capital invested -
vested here. The effect of this feeling is
everywhere apparent. There is a bettor tone
noticeabie In all kinds of business , born of
the simple fact that men believe that Omaha
has taken a step in the direction of renewed
r prosperity. They realize that the hardest
battle Is yet to be fought and that when
Omaha men are aslc1 to go ilown Into
their irnckets nut ! raise the sum that must
be furnished at home to carry on the cx-
' position the real test of Omaha. cmiterprlse
and loyalty will come. But now that only
the co-operation of local Interests Is neces-
n nary in order to make the fair a SUCCeSS
they believe that that support will be forth-
coining.
'Time business men who have handled the
vrojcct during its incipiency have ca-
pedal cause for gratificatIon. They have
aeon that which was not long ago regarded
as visionary by a certain clement take
form and substance. And time success
that has been achieved so far Icads them
to believe more firmly than ever that the
Transmississippi expoattion of 189S viI1 be
second only to time great fair at Chicago.
No definite plans have been made as yet
by the Tramismississippi Expoimitloii asocia-
tion beyond these previously announced.
The next step ril1 naturally be to prcnare
to raise the addItional funds that will be
required to go ahead with the work , and in
this particular the asociation wilt asic the
, \ advice of the citizens and business men
generaliy.
PrcsiIent Wattles said yesterday morning
that until a public meeting was hold no fur-
tiler steps Would be taken. The meeting
would in all probability be held next Ionday
night , and It was expected that there w.iuki
be a full attendance of citizens. They
would be asked to suggest ways and means
for raising tile necessary funds. Time fair
association would have Its hands full with
other matters , mind the citizens of Omaha
must step in and furnish. the money. After
constiiting time general sentiment of tl'e
city tile mmext step wotilti be to complete
time organization by the appointment amid
organizatIon of the various burcawm. That
flcconiplished the active work of mrearing
for the oxpositiomi would begin , and it the
project received the iibcal flmmnncial support -
port that it. deserved Its success was as-
sured. .

One of the classes most vitally interested
in tiio success of the exposition are the
architects and builders. Confidence in
Omaha means that the building trade that
tins been almost at a standstill for the
past two or three years will again become
active. No one anticipates that a building
boom wili suddenly mitart up on thu strength
of time passage of the exposition biil , hut
it is the general opinion of the leamling
architects of the city that ( ho circumstance
vili be a potent factor in bringing about a
gradual revival of building op rations.
Mr. Laurie of Fisher & Laurie said yesterday -
day that it was certainly a matter of mmmcii
importance to the building interests. "It
does not pay to exaggerate. " he continued.
"Wo have had too much of that already.
We are not going to wake up in the morning -
ing and see big new blocks that Imavo risen
up , mushroom like , in the night. But I
flrmly boiiev that the passage of the cx-
position 1)111 viil do more to start time ball
rolling than anything else that could ho

build iiiocks on time strength of it. They
are going to look the ground over , see what

C. FJ. iloimimlorff was oven more sanguine.
lie was enthmimsiastic over the bill , anti ile-
dared - timat it would have cmi immediate
effect on time building interests. In fact , lmo
knew that time flows had already alimiost
asimurcd the .ervctioi of at least two struc-
tures. In one case the improvement was
now practically assured mmd the plans would
be drawim at once.
Charles Cicvcs of Cloves thros. said timat
while lie had not seen any of his customners
since lImo bill passed , lie was assured that it
would have a good effect. It would inspire
contimicitce imm men who had mooney to invest
and have a tenmiommey to start them out of
the rmmt. Time results might not be imnmedi-
ate , but a immaterial step had beemm taken
toward bringing timemu about.
Mr. Kimball \Vaih-cr & Kimball thought
time bill meant everything to Ommmalmmt. The
city was bound to grow. It had time location
and the peoflio amid wommid eventually becomne
time great city of the west. The exposition
would do mucim to hasten this result amid

bill would certainly be to revive confidence

Among real estate mnen there was great
rejoicing over the passage of the lull. They
have had it bard row to hoe fem the 'mast

exposition as an mmltmmost vrlceless boon.
With the contemplated immmprovcmeots to thu

pm oi enments of the local raIlway service
and tIme certain erection of a number of
large aiim ! immmudsome buildings , the real es.
tate dealers feel that time day they have
longed for has' come at lust.
C. C. George , 'rico president of time fleal
Estate exchange , said "it will be several
months before time contracts for tima many
now buildings that are already bm'imig talked
of are let. IL will also take sommic time to
find out just what lmnprovommwnts to the

some tinmo before any decldad effect is fell

can ( cci that there Is renewed confidence
In Omaha and Its rehire among all the iwo-

Ex-Mayor Ihemis was feeling particularly
happy yesterday morning over the passage of
time bill. It was lie who was instrumental
In bringing the last meeting of the Trans-
mississippi commgress to this city while others
declined to assist in the matter. The expo-
sitlon lme regarded an the oimtcome of time
last session of that congress and he felt ,
tlmerefore , no small anmount of personal
pride In time matter. "Time exposItion will
be time grandest thing that ever happened

if. h. hlmmrder of the Fidelity Trust coin-

Immi Immsimraflcc Itmites.
Insurance was once more time topic that
Interested the Omaha Retailers' associa-
tlon last night , It came up principally In
time simapo of a discussion over the valued
policy law , which 'as precipitated by an
address from F'raiik Ransom. Mr. Ransom ,
wimo imad considerable to do with time ultt-
mate passage of the law , proved to be its
vigorous chiamumpion and gave his views of
time trite reasons of time insurance coam-
panics' opposition to it. The discussion
was an interestimmg one , from the fact that
the insurance companies have agreed to
repeal ( ho last 20 per cemit raise in the
rates on conditlomm that time law is annulled.
Mr. Ransom stated that time law iii imlaiti
words Coimiimelietl the insurance coimipanics
to exanmimme property and Insure it for its
existing value , nm.il furthermore compelled
time paymmment of that value 1mm case of total
loss. 'Time desire of the companies was to
insure property for a certaimm anmount aimil
themi in case of total loss to pay only so
mimucim as it had becmm worth iii time opinion
of somnu foreign adjuster , arrived at from an
exainimmatiomi of the ashes. "
Mr. ltatmsoxn themm detailed the fight
through which the bill was compelled to
pass. "I was instrumental imi bringing it
UI ) iii time lcgislattmre in 1881 , wimen time leg-
isiature was largely comnposeml of lawyers -
yers , vlmo , imi additiomi to their practice ip
country towmms , were also emigaged as in-
suratmce agents. They forced the bill to
lay over by threatening to foist prohibition
impon time state anti city , which it was
feared would do moro harm than the law
would do good.
"It came tip again in 1889 , wlmen the
clause was added to the law compelling the
insurance companies to pay attorney's fees
and costs if recourse hind to be taken to the
courts to coliect insurance. It passed the
senate , but met opposition in the house.
It was referred to a special committee ,
which held secret meetings amid for three
days listened to arguments from insurance
men without hiearimmg time bill's champions.
It lay for months in tim committee ; but
was limmally brought before the house after
the sergeant-at-arms bad forcibly taken time
copy from time chairznami of the committee
under instrtmctions of the house. Then ,
( lespite dilatory practices on the part of in-
suronce men , it was passed. Governor
Thayer sigmmc-d It in the face of the impor-
tunimmg of time insurance amen. " Mr. Itaim-
solii stated that the niernbers of time lcgis-
iattmre were contimiunhly threatened and
browbeaten by the lobbyists of the corn-
panics.
TESTED IN OThER STATES.
The speaker held that the fact that time
bill passed through this ordeal without
being scratelmed in any way , and also from
time fact that no state has ever repealed
such a law after passage , were proof of the
merits of the law. "Statistics show , too ,
that it did not hurt the insurance business ,
for despite time prediction of the Insurance
men that within ten days after the passage
of time blii every company would withdraw
from the state , there were sixteen more in
operation five years afterward. "
Mr. Ransom said that the companies tried
In the courts to prove the unconstitutionality -
ality of the law , but failed. The eourt8
have several times affirmed its constitutionality -
ality and have reftmsecl tle companies the
riglmt to affix any 80 per cent clause upomm
the policies. .
"The law had little or no effect in reality
in. bringing about the raise in rates. In
1S93 whmeii Boyd's opera house was burned
the raise of 20 per cent went into effect
because of poor water pressure and fire
force. The law was not offered as the
reason , because its constitutionality had not
yet been decided. Now that tile fire department -
ment is of the best and the water supply
has been increased from fIve to sixteen
tlmnes what it was then , time companies
mnaintain the raise and assign the law as
time reason for It.
'Tlmo Fire and Police commission , " continued -
tinued Mr. Ransom. "Is a body whose duty
it is to keep time fire department U to a
high standard anI thus reduce insurance
rates. No men should be appointed to it
whose business it is to keep up time rates.
Yet Churcimill amid Russell , ignoring the
interests of Omaha , and without consider-
Imig time duties of their appointmcnts chose
Captain Palmer as a member of the board ,
one of time lending Insurance agents of the
city. Ills business requires him to keep
up Insurance rates , His duties as a corn-
missioner compel him to keep up the department -
partment and keep down rates. It is an
outrage to appoint a man whose duties to
his employer/mnust conflict with his duties
to the public. I for one protest against
this and urge that hereafter your association -
tion recommend a maim to liii the next vacancy -
cancy whose duties will not thus conflict.
lIe cannot serve both masters honestly. "
COULD NOT AFFORD A QUARREL.
Mr. Ransom thought It a remarkable fact
that the committee lmad obtained a reduction -
tion , but thought it was because the corn-
panics saw a storm brewing. "They saw
that their conspiracy which sat. in Chicago
to Impose rates on Omaha , " he said , "was
opposed by representatives who had all time
merchants behind timem. Do not tlmink that
they did a magnanimous timing. They 5mm-
ply could not afford to provoke a quarrel. "
Mr. Ransomn urged that the law ho supported -
ported by time association in the face of the
promise of the Insurance men. lie said that
"if time Douglas county doi gation went to
time next legislature to defeat the law It
wouil bring another bllgimt to time city , as
time law was favored by the rest of the
state. fly their opposition to time law the
delegation Would be unabio to obtain any
new charter , but must remain under one
dictated by the remainder of time state. By
reason of atm attempt to repeal time law time
entire state would array itself agaInst the
city antI would work it harm , "
A partial report was made verbally imy
Chairman fleatt of time inamiranco committee -
tee , in whicim mention was made of the
visit of time c mmrnitteo to Chicago to confer
with commission No. 4 of the iimsurance
companies , Mr. fleatty spoke of the 5 per
cent reduction applIcable to time whole city
timat had been obtained.
Accorditmg to time report , lmom'ever , time in-
suraimce companies did not seem favorable
to a furtimer reduction , as they asscm'ted
they were workimig against great disadvantage -
vantage in timis state , holding especially that
imi the past their losses imavo beeim greater
than vremiumna received. Time companies
promised , however , that if time losses were
kept doivim , as they have been recently , amid
furtlmer Improvements were made in tile
tire departmnemmt , timat a further decrease in
time premium rate would be made.
The report furnished an opportunity to
President Ilospe to speak of the work of time
association in obtaimilng the decrease in time
premium rate , lie said that small as the
victory was , comparatively , it simowerl the
benefit of associatIon , mis never before in
time history of insurance had such a general
decrease over a large district occurreml ,
President Iloape from this urged that
greater efforts slmcmI&lbo made to increase
the membership , pcially since it Was
necessary to begin nnergetlc work , now timmit
the Tratismississippi Isaposition is assured ,
lie particularly kdhed that the Retail
Grocers' assocIation combine with the ye-
taliers , without hoatntthcir individuality as
a body , for better erIc ,
FAVORS NO GOMPROMISE.
Peter Wiig gave all duo credit to tIme
e.onimnittee for whmat..hait been accomplished ,
but ho maintainedithat the work should be
continued. lie sauD that all the ciaiimis of
the insurance comupanies that they had millions -
lions invested in flint state hail been din-
proved. Tlmerefore tbcir reasons for mnak-
lag an increase in the rate were groundless
antI iii conserimmenco their decrease was niggardly -
gardly in conip.mrion. V'ilg therefore held
that there should be no conipronmlse a'lthm
the comimpanles , but that a fight for a radical
decrease In tIme rates simould be contimiued ,
evemm to tIme point where Ijroperty owners
and mnem'chmants simould witimdraw their ioii-
