In his address of welcome to the mem bers D. S. .parkhurst, president ' of the South Omaha L4ve Stock exchange, took occasion, to aay the .'packing house Inter ests at -South Omaha would endeavor to keep pace with the phenomenal growth of the state In , stock and grain raising and continue to make South Omaha the natural market for the products of the farms after the stuff had been fed to the hogs and cat . tie nnfl-' heep, which," after all, was the most profitable way tor a farmer to dis pose of his crops. , . Colonel George C. Bellows was not present to make the response In behalf of the association, ' and ex-Congressman Shallenberger responded In his place. Mr. Bhallenbergc-r said: "This has been too greatest year In the history" df Ntbraxka. In the production of live stock, grain and hay. Inaamuch as Nebraska has no natural resources In ores or lumber, -grain and live atock will always be the mainstay of the atate and the greatest source of revenue, surpassing the entire tine ore output of the country In value. " T.i'ii prospects are for Increased production, and thla will make Omaha the best market for live stock In the country." Wednesday's program Is: Reflect rone. A. H.

Hannu Reports of Secretary and Treasurer Election of Officers .. Good Feeding and Breeding!. C. D. Bellows' paper On "Good Feeding an Adjunct to Good Breeding" was listened to attentively and considerable discussion marked Its close. He said In part: In the breeding of pure atock several elementary-principles are essential to suc cess: none of which, however, is entitled to precedence over the problem of good breeding. The party aspiring to make a mark as a breeder may possess capital, u good knowledge of- pedigrees, information as to th history of the breed and the anl- mats that have contributed to its promi nence, and In addition to a.11 of these. mny be a good Judge of Individual merit and by possessed of ample ambition, -, yet ijt hi lacks that one thing the knowledge ami application of. "good feeding as an adjunct to good .breeding " his Ideals will be shat tered arid, worst of .all, iia will be ftiiun- .vcially disappointed. . -. ... . "Good feeding consists In applying tlio methods which most economically produce the best results. Good feeding is the kln.l of feeding .which never permits the aulmuis to be of too light flesh and at the samo Urn. never permits therti to become too fleshy or overdonf. ,Ouod feeding will product- u race of , cattle that will be a source of pir:is ure and profit to the owner and can ho looked upon to improve the breed."

B4Sq,IF.T FOR THE STOt KMKX Sooth Omaha Kxehaaae Plays Host for the F.renlna. The banquet of the Central Shorthorn Breedera' association last night waa one nf the most enjoyed functions that has been celebrated in the city during the past jear. H waa an expression of good will on the part of the South Omaha Dive Stock ex change and the members spared no effort to make the occasion a memorable one. The Central Shorthorn Breeders have been In session here for the last two days and have been entertained by the Commercial club of the city. Last night, however, the enter tainment waa left In the hands of the South Omaha Dive Stock exchange. Tho guests, about 160 In number, assembled promptly at 8 p. m. at the banquet tin II In the Mil lard hotel, which was arranged with the speakers' tables at the south side of tho room and at thla the gnests of honor, to gether with those who were it respond to the toasts were seated. Th- other tables were set at right angles to this and all were decorated fittingly. After the generous menu Mr. Jay lAverty, representing the South Omaha exchange, presented the toasts of the evening. In troductory to this the Elks' quartet of Council Bluffs rendered "Robin Adair" ef fectively, and as an encore Bang ' 'Cause I've Nothing Else to Do." . - . . James H. Van Dusen had the role of mak ing the guests of the evening welcome, which he did under the Introduction of the ' toast-master, responding to the toast, "Not Strangers, But Friends." Tb this Mr. D). C. Dawson, president of the Breed ers' association, responded briefly and then delegated the task to the secretary, Mr. B. O. Cowen of Chicago, stating that he was not a public speaker and that he knew he could rely on the secretory to have something to say In any emergency. ' After this response the banqueters were delighted by half a dozen pithy stories told by F. T. Tomson, editor of the Breeders' Gasette. His topic was "The Sisterhood of Cows and the Brotherhood of Men." Out of the Incongruity of his subject he managed to extract a good deal of fun. W. J. C. Kenyon and C. C. Paly confined their remarks to the more serious aspects of the live stock industry and Mr. Kenyon gave a part of his response in a statistical and historical form, dealing with the estab lishment of the South Omaha trade centers. Mr. Daly told of the great necessity for the organization known as the Dive Stock exchange. He also dwelt at some length on the rules which govern the organization. Other representative - men among the speakers were James Dahlman, Thomaa B. McPherson and Bruce McCullough of the South Omaha exchange. ' Perhaps one of the most enjoyed treats of the evening was the response of A. D. Blxhy of Dincoln. His acquaintance with the muses Is well known In Nebraska and much farther. Koine of his especially happy rhymes are based on the scenes of the farm ami Just such Industry as was repre sented at the banquet last night. He was given the toast "Amusing Muses." on ac- i count of this propensity, and It la certain that he met the expectations of all who 1 heard him. The binquet hall was not de- ; serted entirely until after 12 o'clock, and 1 some of the South Omaha men had to hurry to make tho last cars. The meetings of the association, which will be held today will be open to the pub- lie and they are promised the most hearty welcomo. The last annual meeting of the association waa held in Sioux City, and, as expressed by the president of the Breeders' association,' though he accommodations there were the best, there -was a warmth f about the entertainment here that the asso ciation had never experienced before. One of the moat spontaneous outbursts of en- tliutlasm during the course of the evening was In rejqxniHc to the eloquent words of Senator V. A. Harris of Kansas, whose al ItiMlr.it t ti e status of the cattle raisers of h:tji-. both ii ihU country and In all nseg, wt," it jr.:y to the point and apt. .:V.U OF MARKETS Harris IVm-a l;trea if Legislation lr Not Come goon.

I'nless legislative relief Is received soon. Mr. Harries believes, the United States will be so shut out of European markets hs to make the sjtuation In thia country something to think about.

"I was In Washington', last mouth and conferred with Secretary Root, who, with the president, is in favor of legislation in this matter and anxious to make a fair treaty with Germany. The mass of the people is in favor of having- prompt relief in the Tnatter, but congreaa will not act. Pressure should be brought to bear at Washington and the national legislator aroused. The talk about meeting the raises of other countries with retaliation is all rot; our tariffs uro already high enough. In view -of the- meat and breadstuff indus tries of this state Nebraakans should be vitally Interested in this matter." Mr. Harris is general representative for several live stock associations. He has a breeding farm at Linwood. Deavenworth county, Kan Last August he represented the live stock Industry ot the central weat at the reciprocal congress held at Chicago. ftllAIXKSBERGER SOT FOR OFFICE Does .Not Want Governorship Thinks Democrats May Win. "You may say Mr me I do not want the democratic nomination for governor next year." said ex-Congressman A. C. Shallen berger. who is a member of the Shorthorn Breeders' association. "I am going to rut In my time at Alma raising cattle. At present. I do not think I could pick any man for the nomination. I think W. H. Thompson of Grand Island. R. V. Suther land of Nelson and C. J.

LETTING OF CONTRACTS STARTS DEBATE "leant tool and Uruaj Items Bring Ont O'Brien's Eloqnenae and He Wins In Both Argument. An spneal by Inspector of Weights and Measures Mahammitt for legislation to pre vent grocers and small coal dealera from systematically robbing the poor was not given even the consideration of a respectful hearing by the city council last night. The charges were made and new ordinances re quested in the annual report of the Inspec tor. The document was brief and to th" point, but was not rend. Apart from statis tics the lnseclor said: I desire to call your attention to a grow ing tendency upon the part of grocers to use paper bag or sacks as measures In selling commodities, without having pre viously measured or weighed such com modity in duly Inspected nnd standard measures ind scales, as the ordinances clearly contemplate. I also desire to call your attention to the constantly Increasing selling of coal In baskets. It Is believed by the purchaser thtit he buying a bushel of coal, when, as a matter of fact, the largest of these baskets used will not hold over sixty-five pounds, whereas eighty pounds Is the weight of a bushel. These abuses de fraud the poor people whose circumstances force them to make purchases In small quantities. I recommend that your honorable body take sueh appropriate action aa may cor rect the abuse. Awards of Contracts. Bids for printing and other city supplies were awarded to the Arms announced, with the exception of the 2.0U0 tons of steam coal used at the city hall and drugs for the health department. Tho arrangements In these particulars were tripped up and de cision deferred a week. All the printing, books, blanks, stationery, chemicals and apparatus for the laboratories were awarded to Klopp A Bartlett company, the litho graphing blda being rejected. It had been arranged to give the drug contract to Myers & Dillon, but Councilman O'Brien blocked the move. ft team Coal Contracts. The stea mcoal matter had been threshed out In the general committee. Superintend ent Hugh of the city hall wants the steam coal of the Central Coal, Coke and Lime company, but this firm bid $19C per ton. whereas another firm bid $2.96. For two weeka the superintendent haa been experi menting with coal furnished by the three lowest bidders. Assistant City Attorney Herdman said Monday afternoon that the contract could be let to the Central com pany regardless of the fact It was not the low bidder. On Tuesday an attorney rep resenting the Victor White company, the low bidder, called on City Attorney Brecn. argued that the contract had to go to his client and said legal proceedings would fol low If it wa granted to anyone else. The legal department thereupon discovered that the three low bidders had all submitted figures on Cherokee steam coal, and In view of this fact the city attorney told the coun cil It had to let the contract to the lowest In price. Superintendent Bugh aaserted the coal he wanted effected a saving of 15 per cent and that he had discovered a vast dif ference In Cherokee coal as supplied by dif ferent local dealers. Councilman O'Brien took the Victor White end of the argument and had rather a warm session with Mr. Bugh. O'Brien for Klopp 4t Bnrtlrtt. On the drug bids the controversy was over the right of the Klopp & Bartlett company to bid for H. J. Penfold. The legal depart ment held against It on the theory that dealer In drugs and prescriptions must be registered pharmacists or have the same In their employment. In this debate O'Brien had hold of the Klopp tt Bartlett end. It was hinted by him that each of the three firms bidding were low on various Items, and that it might be Illegal to let the con tracts other than by items. The lumber contracts for the year were split up among Chris Jensen, the C. N. Diet company and the Chicago Dumber company. SPORTS OF A DAY.

BAD BLOOD Every parfof the body is dependent on the blood for nourishment and strength, and when from any cause this vital stream of life becomes impov erished or run-doxvn, it invites disease to enter. No one can be well when the blood is impure; they lack the energy that is natural with health, the com plexion becomes pale and sallow, the vital energies are at a low ebb, and they suffer from a general broken-down condition of health. The system is weak ened and unable to resist the diseases and disorders that are constantly assail ing it. The Liver and Kidneys, failing to receive the proper stimulation and nourishment from the blood, grow inactive and dull, and the waste matters and bodily impurities that should pass off through these channels of nature are left in the system to produce Rheumatism, Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, Skin Diseases or some other blood disorder. When the blood is in this weak' cned and diseased condition it should be treated with a remedy that is not only thorough, but gentle ia its action. S. S. S., a purely vegetable remedy, made of roots, herbs and barks, is just what is needed.

The first I authorised hy Mayor Moores. who state positively that he ha not committed him self to the mayoralty candidacy of W. J. Broatch In any way. The second conies from City Treasurer Hennings. who ssorti with emphasis that Mayor Moores never sought an understanding with him regard ing appointments to city Jobs or any other concessions for support In the mayoralty race. At the mayor's home thia statement was given out for the mayor: "The mayor says he was for George West for mayor, but he haa made no statement regarding his willingness to support W. J. Broatch or anyono else. Neither haa he made any agreements with Broatch or other candidates. Statement printed to the con trary aro absolutely false. The statement quoting the mayor as saying he wanted to 'get oven' with Hlnnlnga and Rosewater if It was the last act of his life. Is doubly false. He never said or Intimated anything of the kind.
