STRANDED la Chicago with Just 60 cents In his pockets Is the some
what unusual situation which stared blandly In the face of one of
our well known citizens.
Thli prominent real estate man bad Just manipulated a $700,
000 deal In Omaha and was accompanying hie wife and small eon a short
distance on their way east.
Because of much persuasion on the part of the small son Mr. P. R. K.
M. decided to go on as far as Chicago.
Tpon leaving the train at Chicago bis wife asked If he na4 enough
none to return home, anticipating performing the act of the Lady Boun
tiful. "Indeed," he replied, visions of a particularly fat commission claiming
his attention. ' : - ' ' '.
He was enjoying the prospect of a few hours In the Windy City, when
suddenly he discovered he had but 60 cents with which to take in the gay
sights. With the spirit of adventure strong upon him, be was loath to
part with his little fortune for a telegram home which would bring relief.
As he stood pondering what would be the next development, a hearty
Hello!" from one of his best Omaha friends who chanced to be In Chicago
a the same time disturbed his meditations.
The Omaha friend was well supplied with the "long green" mod in in
of exchange, ao Mr. P. R. E. M. was able to return home. ,' , . .'

TO ATTACK CAPITAL
RETARDSPROGRESS
Leslie VL Shaw at Commercial Club
' Says Opportunity it Ours if We
Stop Indictment ef
Industry.
NOT ALL ARE CONSPIRATORS
Leslie M. Shaw-, former coventor
of Iowa and former secretary of the
United States treasury, who ad
dressed the graduates of Creighton
university Thursday, speaking at the
Commercial club at noon, said In
part:
"At Lh close of the civil war the veople
of the United Btatea occupied a unique
position. They possessed matchless re.
eourcea undeveloped and matchless re
sourcefulness undetermined. Wisely or
unwisely. the fact exists that for forty
years and Vver it wee the well-nigh con
tinuous policy of the government te en
courage Industry. Its motto might be
thus "expressed: 'If any man says ha
tan do something-, tell hlrn to be quick
about K.' and the government will eo
operata ' So - when dear Oenerai Dodge
and his associates said they could build
a railroad to the Fedtfle ocean, the gov-
ernmeAt eaid: 'Build a railroad to the
Faolfto 'ocean f Way.-if has beea eonsld-
erd' Impossible to build a respectable
waoB road te the coast. For years It
was considered impossible to get to tbe
Pad Od coast at all except by water. Ton
build a railroad? What do yon waatr
Ahd the promoters eeked for one-half of
the land lor ten-miles ea either Side and
a easfc ' subsidy. Then the government
said: Tou oaa'have the land without
0bate. We would be tempted to f've It
to you gratis If you would take It It is
worth nothing to the government' Bo
the road was built. Other roads were
Lullt. Statee were carved out of the
wilderness, commerce developed and aa
empire furnishing homes for some mil
lions of people, which might be called the
Kocky Mouataia Empire, was created.
Crests ef N'sttsa. .
"The same rule was applied to various
Industries.
"What have we to show for these forty
years of encouragement to business Our
(aims produce more than the farms of
any other country on tbe map; our mines
Meld cold annually by the trelnload; sil
ver more abundant still, and there is un
loaded from railroads and coastwise shlpe
or. the shores of Ohio alone more Iron
ere than any ether country la the world
produces. We out from our forests 100,-
OP.OOO feet of lumber every day of the
calendar year; our domestic commerce Is
two and a. half times the combined In
ternational commerce of all nations, while
oar shops and factories turn out more
finished products thaa all the ehope and
factories of, Great Britain and Germany
and France combined plus 1,000.006,000
every twelve months, and ws pay out as
much ' In waxes aa air tbe rest ef the
world. Of course we raurht have done
better' under a policy of restriction and
worldwide competition. I am not arguing
the question. I am only stating the facts
of history. . ,
Casltel Becomes Arrogaat.
"But . capital, , successful . beyond ' Us
dreams even, became arrogant, eelf-as-eertlve,
domineering and monopolistic. It
became necessary therefore to resort to
rlsotpllne, and some of ths big boys were
panlshed In the presence ef the Infant
cUss. This caused all the little fellows
to clap their hands In glee until grad
ually It has become a pastime to get
after the fellow "higher up.'
"Today, and 'especially when the iDuro-I-ean
war shall cease as cease It must
some time the people of the United
Ctatea will again occupy a unique poal
ton. International commerce Is now
thro we wide open and the most t virile
people, if they act wisely, will hereafter
dominate it. It is for us to determine
and to determine quickly, whether we
will adopt pollciea and grant encourage
menta sufficient to enable capital and en
terprise to take and maintain an Inter
national position as far tn advance of
anything neretofore enjoyed by any gov
rrnraent or people as our national growth,
developments and commerce transcends
anything In history. The opportunity la
ours. All needed resources and all need
ful resourcefulness are ours. Money and
brains, the two essentials, are both eura
't we Continue the policy of charging
every man who propoeee to do something
with being a conspirator aad every man
who has done anything with being a
thief, we have probably reached our max
imum. If, on the contrary, we assume
that capital has learned the Intended and
needed lesson, and without apologising for
what has beea done, we lay the rod ever
the door it may be well to let the handle
stick out far enough so that It ran be
seen and hereafter make no reference te
past unpleasantnesses, the future of this
matchless people Is beyond the dream ot
the most optimistic."

A Word About
Our Opening
v
' Owing to the delay In our opening data,

COST OTHER STORES eight weeks ;ego.
The Policy of
the New Store
The garments to be shown and sold at

ten years here catering to their needs.
"The customer flrat" has always been
the note reflected throughout Mr. Orkln's
selling forces, and this same standard will
