THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: DECEMBER 15. 1P07. .4 rnn in (7?. n n an U Jl U-lal Ll LJ ifu 13 r 0) J 'a 0) J Ui Do unto others as you would hqc Ihcm do unto you. We ask only to be judged fairly by the peoyle ol Omaha without favor. We believe: in fairness in all matters facts dnd truth only without misrepresentations or false impressions. We stated publicly the other day, and state again, the circumstances of our coming to this city. After O'Donahoc-Redmond & Normlle Co. failed, we figured with Messrs. Webster & Sunderland, the owners of the building, ro locate here permanently, but could not agree on the terms until November 14 when lease was finally executed. Owing to the lateness of the season, we were not able to open with new fixtures and new equipments, and concluded to open temporarily until spring, when we intend to open per manently. We are wholesale manufacturers, many years in business, and stand as high in the business community for good, reliable merchandise, or for integrity, as does any house in the country. What have we done for Omaha? We spend thousands of dollars for rent, advertising, wages, labor, etc., and employed Omaha people with the exception of one, wpo either were idle or were unemployed. . . NOW TO THE POINT WHAT iS IT ALL ABOUT? As one man puts it: "The combine behind this movement some of the merchants here are not as much afraid of yemr selling as they are of your low prices." He struck the nail on the head. This combine, who enjoyed the monopoly of selling cheap goods at high price?, and most who became immensely wealtliy in a short period of years, are the leaders in this movement. By misrepresenting facts that we are transient merchants etc., they easily prevailed upon the city council to pass a special tax law which, by the way does not hit our case J not so mucb with the expectation of collecting the tax, but to harrass us, but mainly to discredit us in the eyes of the people of this vicinity. TIHIts f7r n 2v ra 3. mow wm urns EKie 0' Is the tuidismited fact that we were the nnio ntirl ititrniet nf hrlfioinr down their exorbitant prices. We have saved the public hundreds of thousands of dollars in their Christmas shopping, and will continue to do so.

Council, city health commissioner, when asked In reference to the aemand from certain parts of the city for a more rigid school Inspection for contagious diseases. "It would be the best and most Judicious use the school board could make of that amount of money. There la a pressing de mand not only for Inspection for contagious dlseasea In the public schools, but ex amination should also be made by spe cialists of the eyes and throats of every child. "A personal investigation by myself on account of the large number of cases re ported from the section where the school Is located was all that shut off quite a spread of diphtheria. One case of nasal diph theria was found where tha child bad been In school In contact with the other chil dren for two and a half weeks. "If t!iu children were navlng regular In spcctlcn this and other shnHur raxes would huve been detected and tho epidemic In the scluul shut off and prohaljly forty or fifty cies of diphtheria less than there waa would have been the result.

Mne-Trnlbs Affected. "This state of affairs wus emphatically brouBl.t to my notice two weeks ago while examining the throats of the children at the asylum for the deaf In this city. There It was found that nearly nine out of every ten ought to have some sort of an operation on the throat to have It return to Its normal condition. "It would be money well spent for the taxpayers to have a regular system of ex animation established In the public schools." 'The idea of school Inspection la not an experiment," said Superintendent David son. "Wherever the system has been estab lished on a basis of competent and thor ough. Inspection It baa brsubt good return for the money spent and principals have become very rnpablr- In the matter of In-1 spectlon for contagious dtaeuKcs and are ! able to detect It quite quickly. The prin cipal difficulty with our vystem Of Inspec tion Is that the teachers cannot control carelessness at home In the matter of quarantine.
