TIIE OMAITA DAILY REE: BUXDAY. JULY 30. 1005. BIG CAIN IN' BANK CLEARINGS Increases Continue m Remit of Froiperity, 1 Unaffected by ConnclidaVion of Banks SIGN OF UNPARALLELED PROSPERITY Local Banker Jars Cltr' 'f - Persistent rrsnrrm Canaot Be Impeded by Ar Or dinary Means. Omaha' consolidated bank, the t'nlted States National, the component parts of which are the t'nlon. Commercial and Untied States Nationals, hns been In ac tive operation one week, or In other words, ' It has been one week nines the number of national banks In Omaha was reduced from seven to five, and yet the bank clearings continue to Increase. The total for the week la t9.iW.606. 41, which Is $3,626,7. 31 greater than for the corresponding week of 1504. Whatever the cause for this tremend ous Increase bankers assert It ought to go far toward demonstrating that Omaha has not suffered from the recent amalgamation of banking Interests. Whether It has gained or not they say remains to be seen. "The truth Is," said one financier, "Omaha la making unparalleled progress and devel opment commercially and her advancement 1b not to be checked by any ordinary transi tion In the business affairs of Its separate Institutions. Our bank clearings dally and annually for a long period have been sur passing those of cities much larger In pop ulation, such as St. Paul, Denver, Los An geles and even Buffalo, occasionally, and this can be , taken as an In dication of the unimpeded progress the city Is making. We are enjoying an era of ptnsnerity never before known In Omaha, and the best feature of It Is It possesses none of the "boom" characteristics. Is not spasmodic, but constant and substantial." INDIANS VISITJ0HN POWER Several Members of the Omaha Tribe Stop with Sheriff for tha Baminer. A bunch of Omaha Indlnns, benrlng the euphonious titles of Big Tree, Green Cloud and South Wind, with others of the more comprehensive patronymics, William Hcnssy, Mrs. Hall Farrlsh and the no torious pair known as the Rupert Twins, were brought down from the reservation Saturday morning by Deputy United States Marshal John Skies for a summer's visit with Sheriff Power at the Douglas county Jail. Tho visit was Insisted upon by United States Commissioner SInghaus at Tekamah, because. the aforesaid Indians were indis posed to put up the requisite bond - of IttO each for their appearance before the federal grand Jury In November next, to answer for taking liquor onto tho reserva tion and disposing of the same to their friends without observing the due formali ties of the law in such cases made and provided. FIX CONVENTION BY LETTER Plattl Sara Jo Coafereae to Arrange Stat Meeting la Likely . to Be Called. "It Is not likely there will be any meet ing of the democratic state central com mittee called to ananas for the state con vention, 'says Louis J. Plattl, member of the executive committee from Douglas county. "Chairman Allen has sent out let ters asking committeemen If It wouldn't be Just as well to make suggestions by letter and leave tne matter to him. This probably Is what will be done. I replied Suggesting Omaha as the convention place and the date as early as possible. Further concerning the matter I know not. Talk of candidates has not reached my ears." Boston flea ring House. The Gibson Soap Company, Omaha, Neb. Gentlemen: I have used Gibson's Soap Polish In the Boston Clearing house since 1900 and find It to be the best and cheapest cleaner I have ever found. I believe I had one of the first barrels of Gibson's Soap Polish that was delivered In Boston and have continued using It, as I have nevor found anything else that would do my work as well. In cleaning marble and wood floors I find that they dry out their natural color, a re sult I could never get before and I have used everything on the market. For clean ing painted walls or woodwork your Gib son's Soap Polish has no equal, and is well named, "King of Cleaners." Respectfully yours, H. F. FULLER. Janitor. It may seem strange that the culture and refinement of Boston must come to Omaha to find the best cleaner on earth, but such la the fact. Gibson's Soap Polish Is used the world over, wherever cleanliness Is prised. For home use It Is put up in one pound cans with perforated covers at 10 cents. Clan Gordon Ptealo at Blair.

To the Editor 6f The Bee: in your editorial In this morning's Issue of The Bee on "Loss of Population to Canada" you speak as If the lamentable exodus was "unreasonable." Suppose in stead of saying this, you test the phenome non by the well known principle of cause and effect, and as a great newspaper en deavor to find the cause and seek to apply a remedy. Having some knowledge of the situation, having been there, and being somewhat well conversant with the situation in contrast with our home matters here In Nebraska, I have no hesitation In saying, first, cheap lands, but more than this. II will go as far In paying taxes there as 110 will here. Then, your article In the same Issue on "Graft" In the city of Milwaukee, which might better be headed "Greed and Graft Everywhere," and which would seem to apply to the whole country, for the country seems to be permeated with It from one end to the other, from high to low, but chiefly high, may have something to do with It. Just now this gives a very discouraging outlook to the patriotic American cttlien who reads the newspapers. Granted I But the remedy, you say. Read Washington' 'Farewell Address." ye beacon lights of the people. "Beware of partisanship and party spirit." the keynote of It. No traitor to his country Is so dangerous as the thick and thin party man. J. J. HAWTHORNE. Replr to the Other Side. BASIN, Wyo.. July 24. To the Editor of The Bee: I notice In your Issue of July 15 a letter from one'C. F. Robertson, secre tary and general manager of the Hanover Canal company and Hanover Land and Ir rigation company, where he makes a state ment that the said Alexander McDonalc tried to discredit the enterprise and the men who are Interested In It, which state ment made by the said C. F. Robertson is false. He furthermore stated that I have no Interest In either enterprise. But I will show proof to the contrary In tho highest court of Wyoming, above their own signa tures that of N. B. Rairden and C. F. Robertson. If Mr. Rairden will refer o his copybook of July . 13, 1901, he will see how much he (Mr. . Rairden) admits. that I am In said company. I want to say that I am claiming or ask ing nothing only such as I am entitled to, and I have the necessary papers to. prove my Interest In the canal. Roberts makes the statement that the case was thrown out of court by Judgo Parmelee. Now, he knows that to be a falsehood, for It will not be out of court, unless settled by mu tual agreement by both parties, before the October term. ' I have the best of feeling toward both the Hanover enterprises and wish them the very best of success, but Lthey want all my interest for nothing, and I was compelled to go Into court and ask for the protection of my rights. . As to the commute of arbitration, my case Is not a matter of arbitration. I nave the documents to show the court my rights, and as to the proposition-made by C F. Robertson personally, I nave nothing to settle with him; It la. with the Hanover Canal company and -the Hanover Land and Irrigation company. - C. F. Robertson gives for reference the State Loan and' Trust company of Basin City,' Wyo., ' which has been In business for only ninety days. Why did he not refer to '.the Big Horn County bank, the oldest bank In the county, doing business at Basin City, Wyo.t . J ALEX M'DONALD. Desecrating the Marriage Service. OMAHA, July . To the Editor of The Bee: Permit me to thank Rev. Comble 8mith through your columns for hla letter with reference to the proposed marriage in a balloon to be "drawn off" In a so-called "summer resort."' While . enddrslng fully all that Mr. Smith has said, permit me to ask. Is there a man who, as minister, priest or justice, with soul so dead as to be willing to prostitute his honorable calling for filthy lucre as to play a part In such a base affair? If there be,' may a righteously Indignant people relegate him as soon as possible to "Innocuous desuetude." ; H. R. B. Orchard Hill Improvement Club.
