MACHINERY BUYING WAVE STRIKES CITY Proprietors of Leading- Job Shops Re fuse to Consolidate Duplication In IMauls Whjr Work Goes to Smaller Cities. Whether there will be a printers' printing house established in Omaha Is still being discussed by the prominent Job printers of the city, and somo express the belief that even though all the original plans ore not carried out the agitation will result ln tev eral "reforms" ln the business. F. V. Johnson, secretary and treasurer of the Omaha Printing company. Is credited wltb being the father of the present agita tion. The plan originally proposed was that three or four of tho largest printing estab lishments ln the city be combined and a strong and fully equipped company be or ganised to do all classes of work. Owing to some proprietors of shops declaring that they preferred to continue going It alone this plan was dropped, at least temporarily, ' and It was proposed that Instead a printers' printing house be 'established. An entirely new company, under the sec ond plan, was to be organised, the stock- , holders to be proprietors of Job printing houses, but the new company to do' work for outsiders as well as for stockholders and all at the same price. The new com pany was to be equipped with Mergenthaler linotypes, Lanston monotypes and such other machines as were found advisable, and all the straight composition, table work and other work which can be dons by ma chines was to be turned over to It by the atockholders. Wave of Machinery Burlnar. While this plan has not yet been carried out, and possibly may. not be, the agitation regarding It Is credited with causing the wave of machinery buying which has struck the Omaha Job printers. The first roll of the wave was tho buying of a mono type flant, consisting of three punching and two type-casting machines by the Omaha Printing company and the Klopp & Bart lot t company, the two companies having equal shares In It It Is located ln the basement of the Klopp Uartlett es tablishment, and so far has satisfactorily done all the straight work of the two com panltw, and while outside work has not been solicited, some of It could be done. The lloes lYliitlng company followed suit by purchasing a Simplex typo-settlng mi chine, but has Just disposed of It, not find ing It what was wanted. Other machinery will, however, probably be secured by the company In the near future. The Burkley PrAltlng company has ordered a Mergea- ' thaler and A. I.

Kot One Folly Complete Plant. Though forty-nine book and Job printing establishments And place In the Omaha di rectory It is freely admitted by all In the business that there Is not In the Vlty as large or complete a plant as there should be, or as could be profitably conducted. There Is not one such plant ln Omaha as may be found In the large eastern cities, plant which cpn take any Job, regardless of kind or quantity, offered. 1 On the other hand It Is as freely ad mitted that with the new machinery bought within the last ninety days, added to the Job and custom machinery already In the city, there will be a lot of Idle machinery during parts of every month, if not of every week, ln the year. The advantage of a central plant for all machinery work Is admitted, but the proprietors of the Ave or six big houses which would be stock holders, and which would furnish the bulk of the work apear unable to agree on a man to control It, or to even give up that much of their business Into the hands of others. They are, however, much more favorable to such a plan than to the con solidation of several of the big houses. "re are two lithographing establish ments In Omaha, half a dozen small binderies, and the different big plants all duplicate, more or less, special facilities for special lines of work. One falrslsed bindery In Omaha, for example, It Is stated, could do all the Work sad make money at the same prices on which half a dozen binderies are now struggling to keep even. Work Goes Out of Town. A very large amount of work goes out of Omaha every year, some to the big eastern cities and some to small towns within 10) miles of Omaha. The proportion of work going east Is decreasing, as the Omaha plants are equipped to do as fine work, at as low figures, as are the eastern' houses. But with the. smaller towna which under bid Omaha in price It Is a different story. Fremont Is declared to be the most active town ln the field at present after Omaha printing, though a considerable amount goes to Uncoln, Plattsmouth, Nebraska City and other towns. The difference In the ccst of composition particularly, and to letser extent the differ ence ln the cost of press work and labor of all kinds In the smaller elites. Is given as an explanation of their ability to com pete with Omaha firms. In Fremont, for example, they have a flfty-nlne-haur week, with .wages ranging from 14 to wiil.e Omaha has a flfty-four-hour wetk, with a seals of IIS. But while declaring that Omaha concerns, and especially th se hav ing large Jobs to give out, should practice patronizing home Industry the prlnteis as a whole declare they are able to keep up their plants, and some of them admit they are even approaching the point of making a fair living on the capital Invested. TOIBB GETS HIS DOORS OPEN I'mbrclla ItenaJrer Seenrea Restrain ing Order Against His Hostess and Continues Business. The troubles between David Tolbb and Cora A. Wilson havs at last reached the district court. The last time t,hey were aired was, when a detail of policemen was sent to the home of Mrs. Wilson to re lease Ttlbb, whom she had nailed up In a room.

The restraining order enjoins the defendant from so inter fering until the further order of court. BIDS FOR CHURCH TOO HIGH Estimates Surprise First Baptist People and Building; May Await Lower Prices. Bids for the construction of the First Baptist church building have been opened, but It la understood that the contract will not be awarded upon those bids as all of them were higher than the estimate of the architect. The society expected that the cost of the building would De about $35,000, while the bids were ln the neighborhood of 146. 000. The mason work which Is the most expensive part of the construction, would cost, according to present bids about $20,000, against on orglnal estimate of about 115,000. The building committee has hot decided whether the plans, will bn changed or the church wait for a dellne. in the price of material. The latter course may be adopted because there nre some indications of a lower level of prices rn the more Important lines. This week the manufacturers of American Portland cement nave announced a reduction from I2.K0 to $2.50 a barrel and contractors hope that this will be followed by declines In other lines. MAYOR STARTS STREET WORK Sla-ns Resolution Providing; Necessary Menus to Repair Dangerous Places in Thorough tares. Dangerous places In the streets are being repaired by small gangs ot men under the direction of the public worm department. The resumption of public work was made possible by Mayor Moorses signing the resolution from the council directing that (2.000 be tnken from the general fund and used for street repairs. More than a week ago work on the streets was stopped by orders of Engineer Rosewater, because the money available had given out. Since then heavy rains have made many streets dan gerous and Impassably. The amount provided will enable the most urgent re pairs to be made.

CANDIDATES FIGURE ON PERSONAL EFFECT Similarity of Jefferls' Rules and Blackburn's Primary System Promulgated Three Years Ago is Pointed Out. More than usual interest attaches to the meeting of the republican county committee called for Saturday afternoon at Washing ton hall and a practically full attendance Is expected. The proposed new rules to govern prlnary election and nominating conventions will draw out a sharp line-up between those who favor them and those who oppose them. It Is understood that the most strenuous opposition will come from the county members, who naturally ob ject to any plan that would reduce their strength ln conventions and committee organisation. The different candidates, who have lightning rods up for nominations on the county ticket this fall have been trying to figure how the change If adopted would affect their personal fortunes and have ranged themselves on one side or the other according to their conclusion. At the con ference at which Jefferls rules were endorsed and recommended to the county convention, most of the antl-cundldatea were present and recorded themselves in favor of the scheme only one voicing op position, but there Is considerable doubt as to the ability of the leaders to control their committee notwithstanding the fact that thai county committee Is purely an anti-creation. At the session of the McKlnley club the other night it was brought out that the proposed new rules for primary nominations formulated by Jefferls are almost Identical ln scope and operation with the elaborate set of rules for direct primaries that were promulgated three years ago by Tom Blackburn ln his capacity as congressional committee to make sure of Mercer's renomlnatlon for congress In 1900. Black burn's scheme embodied and arbitrary ap portionment of delegates Instead of a distribution according to voting strength and left the voting districts unchanged, but It Included the filing of all candidates names for expressions of preference throughout the county and made these Instructions mandatory on the delegates in favor of ths candidates, who should secure a majority. Blackburn had It all figured out that this meant a cinch for Mercer, but withdrew his proposition after he had succeeded In sidetracking all competition and did not venture to resurrect It for the congressional contest last year. The populists declare that they will ex hibit a still different brand of nonpartisan ship In their Judicial convention by putting up a U-ket made up of a selection from the republican nominees and the bar recom mendation. Whin It comes to fixing non partisan slates, they insist they are as competent to pass on Judicial qualifications as any bunch of lawyers, who ever bunched together. The republican Judicial committee has taken room E13 in the New York Life build ing as headquarters, this room adjoining the office of El M. Bartlett. chairman of the committee. Hancorn M. Waring has been employed as secretary of the com mittee and stenographer, and the active work of the campaign will begin as soon as the plans under consideration are ma tured. The first meeting of the committee will probably be held Monday afternoon, '2c at 69c Final Reductions 69c Lace Hose at 15c 15c w ?:!h. 15c-7c 6ic made. Novelty Walking Skirts, new styles and colors, at which time the chairman will lay be fore the members the matters he has naa under consideration, and each member will be requested to take a distinct and active part ln the campaign. The announcement that the democratic judicial committee will meet Saturday to consider the question of a Judicial conven tion is causing much Interest ln demo cratic circles. Some efforts have been made to Induce the chairman to Indicate his desires ln the matter, but with his usual modesty Mr. Smith says that he pre fers to have the members of the committee decide the question for themselves. The persons opposed to the assumption of power by the county committeemen are uMng overy effort to have the judicial conven tion called before the date fixed by the county committee, and this will be the bone of contention before tho committee when It meets. ANXIOUS FOR FIELD TRIALS Omnhn Sportsmen Prepare (or 'Big Shooting In Antlcipntion of Henry Game. Local sportsmen are now Interested In the Nebraska Field trials, which will be held at O'Neill, August 18, continuing for a week. The entries Include some 0" the best dogs ln the United States and 11.000 Is hung up for the winner of the first prise. The dogs will work on prairie chickens, which are reported very numerous ln Holt county this season., A large number of hunters will leave Omaha to spend the week at the trial grounds. This season, for the first time in three years, It will be lawful to kill quail for one month, that of November. Reports from the state show that in the western and northern parts three years of Immunity from the guns has done the birds much good, and they are more numerous than they have been for years. This was also true ln the eastern part of the state until after the present spring, during which so many died from exposure. Trap shooters are meeting every week at the Omaha Oun club grounds for sweep stake and practice work. The "Indian" shoot will take place at Lake Okobojl Au gust 24, and a number of the Omaha shoot ers will be there. W. D. Townsend and a few others will go to the meeting at Hot Springs, 8. D., August 17, returnleg to O'NelH ln time to see the dogs work. NOT A BUMPER CORN CROP But Will be Fair In Nebraska and nil Other . Crops Are Good. Secretary Utt of the Commercial club re turned Thursday night from a two-days' trip to Denver, on which he Inspected the crops of the state by daylight. While there will not be a "bumper" corn crop this year Secretary Vtt states that Ne braska as a whole will have a fair crop and that the higher prices which will rule, due to the short crops U astern Iowa. Illinois and other corn prodrSng states, will more tha,n make up for the lack of quantity. A number of "bad places" were noticed and the second planting of corn. In places where the first one was washed out by the early rains, will be good only for fodder. But this Is all the farmers and ranchmen ex pected of it, the eorn not being regularly planted, but sown, and it will be cut with a reaper. Aside from these places, how ever, corn makes an excellent showing for this time of year. Of other crops Secretary Utt's report Is that they are all good as a rule and that taken as a whole the farmers of the state never were In better condition than at pres ent. .

SELF-GOVERNMENT HAS GOOD FUTURE Thinks I'nlted States the Nation to Teach Principles of Its Own In stitutions nnd Predicts Ultimate Success. "If the American people who are the champions of self-government, who have, by their own practical experience brought the institution up to Its present condition of supreme usefulness, cannot Inculcate the principles of this Institution ln another people who know nothing about it, then no nation can." This Is what Captain J. J. Pershing, Fif teenth cavalry, who has Just returned from the Philippines, says. The captain, who arrived ln Omaha Friday on his way east, -is on a furlough. H-j bs done Impor tant military service on the tiland of Min danao and is thoroughly conversant with the situation ln the archlpelngo. His view of general conditions is decidedly optimis tic; he believes the United States has done and is doing a great service for Itself, the Filipino people and the world In the role it has assumed. Captain Pershing for four years was stationed at Lincoln and is well known ln tills part of Nebraska, which he regards as much his home as any other part of the country. "As to the Moros, the conditions among them are fur better than, perhaps, Is known in this country. While it will, of course, be necessary to maintain troops there for some time, I believe it can con servatively be said that no mOro uprisings are likely to occur among the Moros. The tame element Is too) great. It yields to American discipline. Confident of lltlmnte Success. "Some foreigners In the Orient find fault with the work the Americans are doing there, but it is my confident belief that within ten years these people will be forced Into the line of our most enthusiastic ad mirers. With such men as Governor Taft and General Davis on the commlSKion we are safe In anticipating good results." As to Industrial and sanitary conditions In the Islands, Captain Pershing said the Improvement had been commensurate with that of civil government; people had more and better employment and less disease. The captain landed at San Francisco July 30 pn Siberia and visited a while ln Lincoln before coming to Omuha. He pro ceeds to the east from here. Captain Pershing distinguished himself while in command on the island of Mindanao by his able and diplomatic dealings with the na tives, whose pacification was a matter ot serious Importance and difficulty, 1IU method was to gain the confidence of the natives and gradually draw them rather than force them by more severe methods to his way. His services Involved hazar dous undertakings and he hue been highly commended for them. PUSH WORK ON THE SCHOOLS Flnlnyson line Fore of Men Repair ing Buildings for Fall Oceupnney.

CAN'T HELP IT Coffee Kerves Always on Edge, The easy way to get rid of coffee nerves on edge is to quit the coffee and drink well made Postum Food Coffee ln Its place. When the Postum la thoroughly boiled It furnishes a rich tasting food drink and It Is then easy and pleasant to shift from the drug to the food coffee. A Washington lady says: "For a long time I suffered from nervous headache and was so weak and worn out all the time thot I was hardly able to do my house work. Kvery little thing worried me so, and the noise of my two little children almost drove me wild. I tried my best to be kind and patient with them, but it seemed the harder I tried the crossser I grew until I was discouraged almost to despair. I had tieen UKlng coffee three times a day for about twelve years. Several months ago I read an article In a religious paper telling about Postum Food Coffee and I made up my mind coffee was causing my trouble. "So I shut down on the coffee, which was easy when I used Postum. My headaches grew more painful at first, but I wir not surprised at this and was determined to let coffee alone and givePoatum a fair trial. In a few days Postum had driven most of the drug effects of coffee out of my system. The headaches grew less and finally stopped altogether, and for the past three months I have been a different person. The head aches are all gone, my strength is coming back, nerves are steady and I feel rested In place of tired alt the time. "I know It was coffee that caused all the trouble and I am certain that Postum Is rapidly repairing all the wrongs that coffee caused. I always tell people when recom mending Postum to be sure to make it ac cording to directions; don't forget to boll It fifteen minutes." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. eend to the Co. for particulars by mall of extension of time on the J7.500 00 cooks contest for 735 money prises.
