At the afternoon session of the conven tion Omaha was selected aa ths place for holding . the convention Beit year and officers were elected as above. During Ihe eftemooo there wsa a gen eral discussion, It taking the form of shop talk, aad was designed tabe good for all of the members af ths association. Reports of tbe central ttee showed the association to be growing and In good condition financially and otherwise. Toastmaster Richard O'Neill of tsneoln at tha-banquet ssld Msyor Dehlman had beea called out ef the city and could not attend to make the sxpected address. The toastmaster In hit talk arged ths home patronage policy, insisting that Ne braska retailers should buy of .the Ne braska Jobbers, thus helping to build up ths state and Its commercial' Institutions. Ho designated the retailer aa being di vided Into two clsssei Ths members of ons class axa In the business for pure commercisllsm and those of the other elsss for tthe pleasure that It brings them and the art of making things attractive, and In the long run those of the last named class are the ones who succeed.. Colonel Jotin Shepherd of New Tork, who baa been connected with the Jewelry business for more than fifty years, told some amusing and entertaining stories on commeaclal travelers and then remarked that he knew little about the "Millen nium." the topic assigned him by the toastmastsf. However, he thought this Important epoch would come when the Jobbers extended credit promiscuously, when Jewelers sll loved one another and when Bryan and Roosevelt stop running for the presidency. Colonel Shepherd Is something of a poet. He calls himself a "dogerel" poet and digressing from his subject he re cited some poetry of his own construc tion, 'It was so side-spilttlBC that It evoked much laughter. The colonel ventured tbe opinion that nvthis country there are a lot of people not capable of eelf -government and that there are. another lot who are not satis fied with tbe paue that I being set for them to follow. He grew pessimistic and ssw a number of bad shoals ahead of the eld snip of male, though he expressed a belief In the "eternal progress of the country" after things have righted them selves. ) ' Rev. M. D. -vYIIlletns. pastor or tne First Mstbodlst church, assigned lo ; speak oa "Diadems." remarked thet for , twenty -five years he had had a warm spot tn his heart foe Jewelers. At that particular time, he said, ha had bought an engagement ring and thajeweler had sold It to him on time, letting tdm pay on ths Installment plan. Rev. Mr. Williams could not quite agree with Colonel Shepherd. Hs ex pressed confidence in the manhood of this country and thought the Institutions sufficient for all ths strain that say be placed upon them. So far as the emi grants to this country were concerned he said that he bad mors fear of those who rode first class than of those who JUKI n. aKioinf n wiww i "The Jewelers' Outside Knowledge.' looked apon them aa men of good sbtllty and more than above tbe average In general knowledge.
