Increased business at the stock yards
and packing houses is of benefit to every
merchant in Omaha. The more stock
received at this market the greater the
volume of money put in circulation in
packing houses and yards. This great
industry is one of the important factors
in Omaha's growth and prosperity.
Every head of live stock in South Da-
kota should be shipped to this market
not one car should be permitted to go
to St Joseph and Kansas City-and if
railroad rates were not fixed to the dis
advantage of Omaha competing markets
would never see a South Dakota steer.

REALISTIC ILLUSTRATION.

Dear Jim," she said, whats a garrote2'

And then he said, "My bOnny Kate,
Just what it Is I'll Illustrate"
His arms stole round her pretty neck
She let 1t steal without check
And then he drew 1t snug and tight,
'"They draw it close" he said, like this!'
And then he, snatched a hasty kiss.

saying that In order to be honest and
fair with the people the party should
do this, for unquestionably a majority
of democrats favor free trade. But the
very interesting feature of Mr.. John
sons address is his denunciation of the
present tariff law and his arraignment
of the democratic administration. He
declared that by reason of that legisla
ton and the course of the administra-
ton the democratic party ais broken,
discredited and degraded" 1t promised
four years ago to "kill protection,
abolish trusts, reduce taxation" 1t did
none of these and "in n time of peace
monstrous expenses of the government
are being paid by issuing bonds and
wages are lower and times harder than
in 1892" This frank statement of the
situation needs to be qualified only to
the extent of saying that times were
not hard four years ago, but on the
contrary the country, under the opera
ton of the republican tariff enacted
two years before, was enjoying uneX-
ampled prosperity. 1t is satisfactory,
however, to have the acknowledgment
of this democratic apostle of free trade
that the country was better off under
the last republican tariff than it is under
the democratic law, for while everybody
knows such to be the case its admis-
sion by democrat is so rare as to be
both interesting and valuable. 1t is n
pity there are not more democrats with
the candor and truthfulness of Mr..

A correspondent of The Bee recently
suggested that, merchants provide re-
ceptacles forrbicycles in order to attract
custom. A Chicago preacher invites
bicycle riders to his church and an
nounces that their wheels will be
checked and taken care of during the
service. These are but tips indicating
that sooner or later provision must be
made generally for the care of wheels.
The necessity is felt by every business
house and every large office building.
Yankee ingenuity will soon meet the
new condition. 1t is safe to say that If
bicycle dealers would provide stables
for wheels and maintain messengers to
go after and return wheels of customers
at nominal cost it would prove sue
cess. Possibly the A. ID. 7. is already
equipped for such service.
