"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."

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."

The warmest sort of a discussion was

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

nations.
"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

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

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.

Breeders' association. "I am going to

"Events may develop so that tlM demo

to win Nebraska next fall. If the railway

Inevitable split the party In this state

Eepori from .Inspector Mahammitt Gats
Scant Caniideration.
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.

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. It not only cleanses
the blood of all impurities and poisons; and enriches and strengthens it, but
PURELY VEGETABLE. PromPtly n gives better results than any other
medicine. It cures Rheumatism, Catarrh, Sores
md Ulcers, Skin Diseases and all other blood disorders, and cures them per
manently. Our Medical Department will be glad to five advice without
haxgt to all Safferiaf with blood or skia diseases. Addxtss

Major Moorei PasiUTel Deniei Alliance
With Brottch as Hit Snoceuor
YELLOW STORIES NOT BASED ON TRUTH
Hennlnc Repudiates Report that
Mayor Tried to Exact Promise
of lllra Regarding; Fotoro
Appointment.
Two positive statement were given out
Tuesday morning that ought to clear up
the republican political atmosphere consid
erably. Both were made to deny stories
printed In the yellow newspaper. 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. He Is a good friend of Edward
Rosewater' and will remain so regardless
496 - of any differences of oninlon nh.-mt hmvnr.
JJi I alty candidates. Mayor Moores Is not per
sonally nosnio or 111-disposed toward Mr.
Hennings, as has been reported."
The Information that Mayor Moorea felt
keenly the charges that he had attempted
to get promises from Mr. Hennings to ap
point certain persons to positions In the
city hall If elected was conveyed to the city
treasurer. Mr. Hennings said
"As a matter of fairness to Mayor Moores
I want to say he never made any requests
of the character upon me, nor has he tried
in any way to have an understanding re
garding the appnintmenta. He haa not
473 ! made overtures toward any bargaining of
4"8 the kind and has not attempted to dictate
I what I should do about my candidacy or my
policies alter election ir 1 gained toe omce.
Letters felicitating City Treasurer Hen
nings upon his mayoralty candidacy con
tinue to be received by him from unex
pected sources. .The other day one arrived
from Egbert M. Badgrrnw, a former Oma
han now in the real estate business In
Tacoma. Mr. Badgerow writes:
Omaha Is certainly in need of a good
business administration, such as you are
eminently fitted to administer, and I, for
one, while at present a long distance from
home, am pleased to note that affairs are
shaping themselves in the proper direction.
I regret not being In tho eltv to perform
my part of the work to be done, but 1 shall
watch the progress with interest, wishing
you success In the present move.
Tho first democratic filing for the munici
pal primaries crept into the city clerk'
office late Monday. It came from Charles
W. Young, who would like to be a city
committeeman from the Third district of
the First ward. Two other republican fil
ings were made. They are those of Samuel
McLeon, who cherishes deep design on the
office of building Inspector, and J. A. Lov
gren, who submits his name In the coun
cllmnmic contest In the Eleventh' ward. ,
The Ninth ward division of the Equal
Rights club concurred In the action of the
central body Tuesday night by endorsing
the candidacy of A. H. Hennings for mayor.
The Equal Rights club of the Fourth
ward held a large and enthusiastic meeting
last night, at which zeal for the coming
campaign waa freely expressed. The chief
business of the meeting was to endorse the '
action of the central body of the Equal
Rights league, which adopted resolutions
endorsing the candidacy of A. H. Hennings
for the mayoralty and William Elbourne
for the city clerkship. i
