Local EncouruEement.
W. II. Robertson, local manager OF R. G.
Dun x cos Mercantile agency, speaking OF
trade for the week says:
The week just passed affords more foun-
dation for the fast rising conviction that
the country generally. and this locality in
particular, is on the high road 10 quick
recovery than any week OF the year. Sea-
sonab e weather has hai something to do
with the situation, but the real causes 20
deeper and are found in the general improve
ment OF material conditions. The state and
country are again approaching the normal
consumption of natural and manufactured
products, though at figures greatly reduced
from those of former years Production is
stlll "A little in excess OF consumption, which
depresses prices, but u must be remembered
that the demand Will be vastly increased
Just as soon as the perio1 Of business con-
Valescence is passed. The appetite OF re-
covery In the individual Is analogous 10 that
OF recovery m business, and we are rapidly
reaching the point when activity will be the
rule Of trade.
story is the same. Business is better than a
year ago. AT the freight houses OF the great
railways the old air Of energy Is present.
Wholesale dealers and iobbers are In the
mand brisk
perhaps the mercantile agency touches
the situation more accurately than any
other element of trade. The record for the
past five years shows the number of failures
for the past week the smallest of record
for that period. Since lSq3 every month has
registered a net loss in the number OF trad
ers IN this district, until January 1897. since
which date We added ninety-nine names
twenty-three Of which We're in Omaha
alone.
The exposition has its effect OF course
here, and probably retail trade I'm Omaha
Is much better because OF that enterprise.
But the fact IS that the state Is recovering
itself for a much stronger reason. Cattle
and hogs are In good demand at good prices
and plenty prevails at al the farm houses
Prices of grain are ruinously low. bur every
thing the farmer buys Is also ruinously low
aud consequence there is an active ex-
change In all the interior towns. The state

Another feature of the live stock bust
ness that viii be or general interest in this
section Of the country. where al business Is
so largely dependent for its success upon
the live stock industry, is the extensive
marketing OF Mexican cattle in the United
States Under the influence Of the nigh
prices the MeNicans are shipping more cat
tie into this country than ever before. Dur
ing the first four months of this year ~
cars, or 30 coo head of cattle were shipped
out OF the Deming yards alone. The April
shipments from the Mexican state Of Chi
times as many were shipped from the
whole state during the entire year OF 1895.
The prospective advance in the duty on inn
ported cattle Is Fastening the shipments.
The most Of these cattle are goor but they
represent just so many pounds OF beef that
otherwise would have 10 be produced by the
cattle growing states Of this country.
