Omaha Looks Good
After Long Trip to
The Pacific Coast
"From my tour of the Pacific coast
slatea I brought back three distinct Im
rresEiona, namely, that the business sit
uation, generally speaking, is Improving;
that the two California expositions are
-wonderful in many respects, and that
cry where the opinion seems to pre
veil that Omaha and the region of which
It is the metropolis are regnrded as the
moht prosperous In the country," says
Kay C. Wagner, who Just returned to
the home office from a seven weeks' tour
of the west.
"My business In the northwest made It
necessary for me U stop off in many
cities and towns, where I met numerous
men. From thorn I gleaned much Infor
mation as to business and crop condi
tions. I found that the war prices paid
for grain and llvo stock had brought an
Immense amount of wealth Into the
ruget Sound country, and everywhere
men are predicting bountiful crops. The
wheat fields are producing Immense
yields and everybody is looking for a
still greater Influx of money when this
grain is put onto the market.
"It was my good fortune to see both
California expositions upon special days
when the attendance was very large. The
San Diego exposition, while not so large
as the other, Is beautiful beyond de
scription and I retain memories of its
manifold charms.
"But it seems mighty good to get back
home, and it is gratifying to recall the
many expressions by men whom I met
when they learned that I hailed from
Omaha. Almost to a man they shared
In the prevailing opinion that Omaha is
one of the live towns of the country en
trenched within a territory so prolific
as to render it almost Immune from the
business depression which has prevailed
csewhere. Omaha is good enough for
me."
