OLD REPORTER TELLS 8T0EY
Mob nnraeal Soldiers and Dispersed
Mllltla, Destroyed Properly aad
Strarlt Terrar Taroaaa Hearts
f tha Cltlseas.
"The present telegraphers" strike is a
pretty good one," nemarked an old news
paper man In The Bee office Tueeday night,
"but It Isn't a olrcumstance to the big gen
eral strike of thirty years ago. when every
Industry In the United States was paralyxed
for several weeks. The strive originated
With the railroad men at Pittsburg and
quickly spread to the miners and then to
every branch of Industry, including tha
printers.
"Pittsburg was the storm center of the
strike and the mob, not the strikers, be
gan all sotts of depredations and threat
ened to burn the city and also to make an
assault on the Allegheny arsenal, the prop
erty of the United States. The Pennsyl
vania mllltla was called out and could only
reach Pittsburg by heavily guarded trains
and by patroling the tracks to prevent
the trains being wrecked. Two or three
companies of the mllltla succeeded in get
ting Into the city In a roundabout way.
and coming Into the city from the Birming
ham side the train was attacked in the
Pittsburg tunnel and one or two fit the
mllltla were killed.
"In the meanwhile the 'mob had set fire
to the great elevator that stood directly
In front of the union station, and as It
was impossible for the mllltla companies
to get through the depot, the train was
switched around the depot and the com
panies disembarked In the freight yards
near the Pennsylvania roundhouse. The
troops were at once assaulted by the mob
with brickbats, coupling pins and such
arms as the mob had, and the mllltla, after
losing another man killed, took refuge In
the roundhouse. The roundhouse was at
once besieged by the mob and In sheer
self-defense the troops had to fire on the
mob. Two or three of the mob were killed
and several wounded, Including one or two
women.
Strikers Bars Mllltlamea.
"The mob became frensled at once and
set fire to ths roundhouse, piling ties. Coal
and coal oil barrels against It, and then,
setting fire to some freight cars, bumped
them Into the combustible heap. In a mo
ment or two the roundhouse waa In flames.
The militiamen threw away their guns
and fled for their lives. Several of them
were burned to death and three or four
killed.
"The fire was quickly communicated to
other freight cars and several hundred of
them -ere destroyed. The fire department
was not permitted to extinguish the flames,
and all during the night and the next day
the fire burned fiercely in the freight yards
until nothing was left to burn.
"Just at this juncture was enacted a
scene showing the respect that an unor
ganised and frensled mob has for the
power of the United States. A detach
ment of about twenty regulars had been
hurried from Columbus (Ohio) barracks
to the scene by a special train. Tha cry
soon broke out 'The regulars are coming,'
and the sullen, maddened mob slunk away
from the car tracks as the special train
pulled in. The little body of regulars
quietly disembarked from the train, and
forming Into three platoons, marched down
the street toward the Allegheny arsenal
with their guns at a rlght shoulder shift.'
The order wss quietly given by the of
ficers In command that If any attempt was
made at an attack to open fire and shoot
to kill. The detachment of regulars was
not molested. A mail train with belated
mat) waa atandlng on the tracka, and the
officer directed that the train pull out,
which It did without the slightest attempt
at Interruption.
Breaks Back of Strike.
"This prompt action of the government
broke the buck of the strike In Pittsburg
and the Allegheny arsenal was saved. The
few troops of the ordnance department
that had garrisoned the arsenal had locked
and barricaded the gates, and the mob
had not the courage to break In and selsa
the large number of rifles and ammunition
that were stored there, or otherwise the
story of the Pittsburg riot might have
been different. As it waa, the total value
of property destroyed was "over 47.0CO.00O.
The railroads were the greatest sufferers,
and the city of Pittsburg had afterwards
to make the loss good to the railroads.
"Another great center of the strike thst
year was at Newark, O., which was the
junction point of the Baltimore A Ohio,
the Fort Wayne, the Pennsylvania, and the
Central Ohio systems. Several regiments
of Ohio militia were Sssemblcd at Newark,
under command of Governor Tom L.
Young, who had seen service in the civil
war, and as lieutenant governor succeeded
R. B. Hayes, who had just been Inaug
urated president. President Hayea tele'
graphed to Governor Young: 'General
Young: Do you need the assistance ot
the federal troops?' General Young Im

did not deem It prudent to take any
chances In exsspersttng tha mob further, at
that point
Baalaeea I'toeaal la Calamfcaa.
"Tha situation was almost as bad In
Columbus SS at Pittsburg, but the mob
had not yet got to setting Are to buildings.
Every establishment In the city but one
had been closed by the parading mob of
hoodlums. That was Butler Karri arts
coffee and spice mills. The mob had
paraded the streets, carrying a red flag
and torches, snd many of them were
armed. The cry of the mob tat, as they
visited each manufacturing establishment,
'Shut up, or burn up.' They all shut up
except the spice mills. A nervy fellow
named W. H. Crawford was superinten
dent of the mill and when the mob entered
the enclosure snd demanded that he 'Shut
up or burn up,' Crawford drew an old
pistol he had used during the war, batted
the ringleader over the head and laid htm
out snd ths reat of the mob withdrew
sulkily away, leaving Crawford master of
the field. The mob then crossed the 8tate
street bridge, where at the Junction of
High and Stats streets, In front of the
state rapltot wss drswn up a couple of
companies of mllltla. The lender of the
mob called to the mllltla to throw down their
arms or they would be attacked. The two
companies then withdrew Into the capltol
grounds and stacked arma, and abandoned
the field.
"While all this was gplng on Mrfvor
John H. Heltman had Issued the riot call
to assemble all the cttlxena of Columbus
capable of carrying arms to meet at the
city hall on State street. About 6.000 de
termined cltlsens had assembled In re
sponse to the call, and the mob, seeing
the temper of the cltlsens, gradually- dis
integrated. This prompt action of Mayor
Heltman saved tha city from a disastrous
conflagration and possibly looting by the
mob.
Peace Is Restored.
"The citizens were promptly organised
Into companlea, under command of veteran
aoldlera of the civil war, and aa moat of
the ringleaders of the mob were known,
they were arrested wherever found, and
peace was restored In Columbus. However,
the citizens maintained their organization
for several weeks, meeting nightly and
patrolling the city by regular details, and
the strike was ended.
"The Infection of the strike spirit spread
to the printers, and we fellows on the
newspapers had a rocky time of It Most
of us could stick anywhere ,from 1,000 to
S.000 ems at a sitting. There were no
linotypes then, nor were there any type
writers. We simply had to set our copy
out of our heads right at the case. Some
of the cub reporters would hike out and
get a line or two of copy and then we
regular reporters would hsve to go out
for the big stuff. There was plenty of
news, but we had the time of our lives
getting it.
"In those days, too. all telegraph copy
came In by abbreviation and In long hand.
Some of the copy was worse than Horace
Greeley or "Old-Man" Broes ever dreamed
"of. But we got out our papers all right,
such as they were."
SALTER ASKS MORE HYDRANTS

C. A. Baiter, chief of the fir depart
ment, wan La niorebydranta. He says:
"Experience with the fire at the Homan
livery stable again demonstrates that more
fire hydrants are needed In tho business
part of town. This was a fierce fire, but
not a heavy one. AH the water possible
was needed for a short time and we got all
we could on the fire. At present there Is
a Are hydrant at the northwest corner of
each block and In rare cases one at the
center of the block. As a result of this
condition it Is Impossible to fight a fire
In the business districts without stoplMng
trafflc on two or more streets.
"What we must have If we are to do
our duty as It should be done Is s fire hy
drant on every corner of every block In
the business center and an additional hy
drant in tho middle of each block where
large buildings sre located. With this sys
tem it would be poslble to'get all the water
needed on a Are without crossing more
than one street. We could not only do
this, but we would save our hose and get
a stronger stream. The matter Is one I
have mentioned In my annual reports and
It must be brought about If the Omaha fire
department Is to accomplish Its purpose."

MONEY IS COMING WES1
John L McCagne Seei Bright Future
for Eeal Estate Owners.
INTEREST RATES WELL BE HIGHER
rrlTata lave.tore Caanat Lend a
Cheaply aa Caa Blat roneeraa.
Which Are After Other
Thlaga.
The dawn of an unprecedented era of In
veatment of eaatern money In western e
curltlea, Industries snd reat estate Is st
hand. Eastern capitalists and men of
smaller means are alike apprehensive of
the results of further Investment In the
esst and are turning their eyes toward the
Betting sun. Not In the last fifteen years
have the eastern people so universally pro
nounced the west "all right."
So said John L. McCague Wednesday In
an address before the Omaha Real Estate
exchange. Mr. McCague returned a few
dnys ago Prom the east, where he spent a
month sounding the sentiment of Investors
In Pittsburg, Phllsdelphia. New York. Bos
ton, Providence, Hartford snd other cities.
"The depression in stocks and bonds In
Wall street will turn a flood of eastern
money to the west." said Mr. McCague.
' "Jones, who has f?.ono and lives In some
Ohio city, and Smith, who has M.OOO and
has his home In Pennsylvania, are getting
somewhat apprehensive about Investing
In storks and bonds, and are going to send
their money to Nebraska and Kansas and
South Dakota. Then, too, the big capital
ists, almost without exception, have come
to regard the west ss a safe place for
money. Real estate values have become
so high In the east that those who Invest
In realty must send their money west.
Interest Rates Higher.
"Interest rates will be hlRher. The In
surance companies are at no loss these
days to find a place for their surplus cash.
It Is going Into big projects, and the money
which Is going to develop the west must
come from Brown and Jones and 8mlth,
with their few thousand each. They can't
lend money as cheaply as the Insurance
companies used to lend It."
W. H. Green had a bone to plek with the
exchange. He learned recently that he,
who ran for the legislature on the demo
cratic ticket last fall, had been assessed
11 to help pay the expenses at Lincoln of
a republican lobby from the exchange. In
view of the fact that men of this same
lobby had been members of the exchange's
tax committee which had publicly declared
In favor of the exchange's republican can
dldatee for the legislature, Mr. Green was
exceedingly wroth and objected to paying
the 13. He said tne assessment was un
constitutional and he characterized the
maintenance of a lobby as bribery.
He wanted to rescind the action taken
In levying an assessment to pay the ex
penses of this lobby, but he could get no
one to mske a motion for him.

Why Some Advertising
Campaigns Fail
Some advertisers think that all there is to advertising is Copy (that is, advertisements)
in connection with Media (the publications used) . It is because they think only this far
that many campaigns fall down, and there is report of another advertising failure.
THERE is no doubt that Copy and Media ara
prima eaaentiala.
W prove our recognition of Copy importance
by maintaining a highly skilled staff of advertise
ment writers. .
These men command large salaries. We ara
compelled to pay a high figure for copy service to
secure the necessary talent.
We prove the Importance of Media by maintaining
our RECORD OP RESULTS.
This is a record of inquiry, casA and safes results
on mail-order advertising and non-mail-order ad
vertising (general Publicity). This record covers an
unbroken record of over six years, and la maintained
at enormous cost In cash, time, and in the detail of
ita compilation. f
But to stop with advertisements and publications
alone is to disregard entirely the vital factors per
sonal sales co operation, printed matter promotion
or inquiry handling, aa the class of advertising may
require.
The General Advertiser's
Problem
The succesi of a general advertiser cannot be any
greater than his grip on the retailer and the co
operation his retatler gives his goods.
The lost motion resulting from nsapa&aef coifs for
advertised products, because tha dealer is net
stocked, is easy to see.
Likewise, it la apparent that a dealer coerced against
his will into handling a product by brute-force adver
tising to the consumer la a menace aa long as this
dealer has an opportunity to substitute.
Therefore, it becomes evident that permanent suc
cess for any generally advertised product depends
on thorough Attribution coupled with the whole
some and hearty co-operation of the dealer, quite aa
much aa upon good media, good advertising and
reasonable profits.
Lord & Thomas have had signal success in merging
advertising and aalea departments into a smoothly
working unit, resulting in the complete utilization
of advertising in lining up the retail trade, and in
having the entire aalea plan progress smoothly.
They are so markedly successful in this Important
respect by reason of their knowledge of trade con

Omaha's grain market made a re
markable record for the first six months
of the year, according to the latest report
of the Department of Commerce and La
bor, which has Just been received by the
Omaha Grain exchange. Tor the six
months it stood fourth In total grain
shipments, with 24.214. C00 bushels, being
I distanced by Chicago, Minneapolis and St.
I Louis. Total grain receipts were 21,819,4
bushels, as compared with 19,919.1!)$ bushels
for the corresponding period of 1906.
In receipts for the six months, Omaha
stood sixth, being distanced by Chicago,
tit. Louis, Minneapolis Dututh and Kan
sas City. The market was third In corn
tccelpts, though It ran about 00,000 bushels
behind last year. '
Por tha single month of June Omaha
I ranks third In corn receipts find third
In oats receipts, only Chicago and Kan
sas City being ahead. For th'e month the
market was fourth In total grain receipts.
Making up lost time Is slow, hard work.
The out-of-a-Job man who sits down snd
waits for something to turn up will have
a lot of lost time to make up. The man
who uses The Bee's want columns doesn't
lose any time. And thus the difference
between the "lucky" man and the "un
'ucky" man Is aaplalned.

ments, in having the advertising plan consistent
with tha manufacturers' profits, territory, etc.
The Mail-Order Advertiser's
Problem
The success of the mail-order advertiser Is in direct
proportion to his facility in turning inquiries into casta.
The veriest amateur can explain that the inquiry
is productive or not, according to whether tha
catalogue la good and tetters efficient.
Failure creepa in through unwieldy office tystemav
criss-crossing of department work, failure to stop
litersture or follow-up when a prospect becomes a
customer, and in many other similar ways.
Failure also becomes more than a possibility whea
cost per sale ia loet sight of, and the actual pro-,
ductivenesa of the individual paper or advertise
ment ia not definitely known.
Here, again. Lord C& Thomas' broad experience,
gained in an almoat unbroken chain of successes,
teaches them to construct the inquiry brings , what
publications to uae, how and when and at what
intervale to follow the inquiry, what simple plan
may be followed to secure the order, and how te)
eliminate waste in the inquiry-handling method.
Every business haa its own peculiar and remark
able requirements. It is a self-evident fact that no
ready-mads plan can be formulated at long rang
for the handling of any business.
Yet so many Industries are to a degree elmilar la
their advertising requirements thst any advertising
problem may be referred to Lord CaV Thomas
with the customer's absolute aseursnce that tha
advertising plsn submitted will not only be highest
in efficiency, but mbst economical in Ita eaecueksn.
