Agitation for the Establishment of Ona in
Omaha ii Still On,
. 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-

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.

defendant a room ln the house at 606 South
Sixteenth street and set up signs announc

and repairer; that previous to August 1 the
defendant notified the owner of the build
ing, P. E. Her, and the plaintiff that she
would no longer occupy the house and that
then the Owner made a lease to the plaintiff
for a term of three years, but that upon
August 1 the defendant refused to vacate
the premises and an agreement was made
whereby be was to vacate September 1 and
the plaintiff held possession of his room as

the defendant destroyed the signs he had

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.

GOSSIP OF THE POLITICIANS
Much Interest Centers in Aotion of the Be
pnblioan County Committee.
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,

under consideration, and each member will

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. .

PROGRESS ALL OVER ISLANDS
Captain Pershing, Hero of Mindanao,
Praises American Occupation.
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.

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
