character in your town, try that
remedy on him.
"lf YOU are charitably inclined
and would mingle Philanthropy with
your business Investments, how bet
ter could you act than by gathering
several hurd dred of the worthy poor
Of your county into new cotton mill
will ge? If you belong to that class
Who believe all tho ills of the coun-
try are due to the overproduction
OF cotton, why not show your faith
by yonr works, and take from tho
folds several hundred laborers and
put Them to manufacturing instead
OF producing cotton?
IN cotton mill with 100 hands
will spin 900 bales Of cotton annual
ly, worth at present prices $4,000
IN Its raw state, and say $4,000
when it is spun. This force of, say,
fifteen men, twenty five women and
sixty children. In tho fields this
fcrco will not produce moro than 300
bales Of cotton worth $500, while
in the mill tho value of their labor
will amount to $4,000. This is
why New England is rich and the
South is poor. Will you not think
of this aud act? Do not hesitate
because coal is hi h and you have
no convenient water power. Geor.
gia pine wood at Sl,25 per cord
boats coal at 50 per ton. With the
new improvements for economical
fuel steam plant on railroad is
better than a water power four or
five miles from shipping point.
"Flfteen years ago there lived in
the then small town of Griffin a
merchant of only moderate means
who WAS badly afflicted with that
dreadful disease, dyspepsia. Forced
by the hand of diseuse to abandon
his store, he decided to build cot
ton mill. After weeks of anxious
soliciting, be could raise only SOL
900. With this small beginning,
backed up by the friendly promise
of the local bank, he made the ven
ture. From this small beginning
the plant has grown to nearly a mil,
lion dollars, the stock being worth
$3.50 per share Of 500, The city of
Griffin has doubled more than once
in wealth and population, and the
cotton mills are now lending money
to the very bank which helped them
In their infancy.
"All throughout tho Piedmont
region Of the Carolinas tho hum of
ohe spindle and the smoke of the
furnace is heard and seen on almost
every hilltop, bnt after crossing the
Sa' .nnah river into our own State
the noise of the cotton mill is no
longer heard, bnt in its stead the
stiffness of death prevails. The
wave Of industrial prosperity which
has caused tho Carolinas to reach
far ahead of Georgia has passed over
Georgia and is now finding hearty
welcome in the State of Alabama.
II will not say the bankers Of
Georgia are to blame for this state
of affairs, but j will say that it il
within your power to change it if
you would. VIII you not try :"

BIDS FOR COUNTY SUPPLIES
Commissioner Hold 81 Brief Routine
Session and Hear from Men Who
Have Wares to Sell.

At a routine meeting of the county COM
missioners bids from various dealers for
county supplies for the coming year were
opened and referred to the different com
mittees. There will be another meeting of
the commissioners next Saturday and at that
time some definite action will be taken.
The number of bids received was smaller
than would naturally be expected in view
of the published notice given by the COM
missioners.
One important item in the county's
affairs is drugs for patients at the county
hospital and other public institutions. Otto
Seiffert offers to fill all prescriptions writ
ten by the county physician at IL cents
each. J. II. Schmidt makes a bid of 20
cents per prescription, with the proviso that
all proprietary medicines shall be fur
nished at regular price less a discount Of
% per cent.
LamoreauX Bros. and the South Omaha Ice
and Coal company are the bidders on ice,
the former offering it at SO cents per 100,
and the latter at 40 cents per 100.
The U. P. Steam Baking company offers
bread at 2 cents per pound. 1t is sug-
gested about the court house that one
reason why bids are so few is because Of
the fact that in the general prosperity
dealers in the various lines of trade have
all the business they can attend to without
bidding for it.

FOR The HOLIDAYS
Many Omaha People Will Spend Christmas
Away from the City.
PASSENGER TRAINS ARE LoAD:D DOWN
Holiday Excursion Rates Furnish on
portunity for the Enjoyment of
Fcstn1 Scnson with Distant
Relatives and Friends.

The Union, Burlington and Webster street
depots have been the Mecca toward which
many people directed their ways, beginning
with an early hour I'm the morning. Yester-
day was the first day that the holiday excur-
sion rates were put into effect, and the
opening Of the holiday travel was %surpris-
ingly large. 1t will continue to tax the
traffic capacity Of the various railroads
until after New Years day.
The first trains which left the stations
in the morning were crowded and the crush
continued without abatement during the en-
tire day. The ticket agents were given no
opportunity even for a temporary rest. At
the Burlington station when the ticket win
dows we're thrown open at 8 o'clock there
were two lines Of people waiting to pur-
chase tickets. These lines, about fifty deep
at the first, seemed rather to be increased
instead OF diminished until after 0 o'clock
when the last of the morning trains left
the depot. The same condition of affairs
prevailed at the Union and Webster street
depots for an hour or more prior to the de-
parture of all trains. At the uptown ticket
Offices there was not such a crush, but the
sale of excursion tickets increased the con-
tents of the money drawers so perceptibly
that all the city passenger agents were
beaming with smiles of satisfaction.
At the depots the presence of so many
people reminded the observer of the palmy
days Of the Transmississippi exposition,
when travel was so heavy. The balmy,
sprin'g-like day, too, gave an added sug-
gestiveness to the exposition time. The
sale of tickets to points west OF the Mis-
souri, river was in excess of eastern sales.
This Is attributed to the fact that the rates
west of the river are lower and, conse-
quently, taken advantage of by more peo-
pie. To all points within a limit of 200
miles the rate west of the Missouri river
is one fare for the round trip. East of
the river the rate is one and one-third,
with the same limit of distance, The re-
naming dates of sale for the holiday ex-
cursion tickets are December "a, %, 80, 81
and January /. The return limit is jan
nary 4.

Card of Thanks.

To our Patrons: Who have so literally
patroni2ed us the last two weeke, we desire
to render our thanks, not only for the fnan-
cial remuneration we have received thereby,
but also for the words of encouragement
have given us in our fight with this
newest form of monopoly-the Omaha Drug
trust, Since resigning from the aforesaid
association, we have become more fully con
WINGED of it's injustice owards the drug buy
ers of Omaha and vicinity, and are heartily
glad that we are not constrained by any
gang" from furnishing you anything in our
line at a saving of 20 to 80 per cent.
Just think of it. Trying TO COMPEL us
to charge 81 for an article you are accus-
toned to paying 75c for. No wonder they
need the services of spys and detectives.
But, judging from the healthy appearance
OF our cash drawers at the close of the days
business, the public is not going to allow
itself to be imposed upon, but is going to
give its support to those who are working
in their behalf, so we will just give the
trust All the rope it want and it will
hang itself" Wishing you a Merry Christ
mas, we remain yours respectfully,

FELL INTO THE BUILDING
investigation of the Entering of the
WelIfieet P~Ostoffce COM
Dleted.

Out at Wellheet, a little town thirty miles
south Of North Platte. the citizens had a
real sensation a few days ago. A stranger
who gave the name of ]. II. Savage was
charged with breaking into the postofice.
In the due course Of time some of the citi-
zens went to North Platte and secured an
Information which compelled Savage to
answer to the serious offense of breaking
and entering a postofice. A special agent
OF the Postofice department was there to
prosecute, but after hearing the evidence
the prisoner was discharged. The testimony
showed that Savage was drunk and that
while leaning against the window the glass
gave way and that he fell inside and re-
manned lying upon the floor, being unable
to get up.

Sioux City is much exercised over the
probability of the Great Northern removing
its present terminus from that city by build
ing the proposed Omaha & Northern railroad
to Omaha. The line for this proposed route
has been surveyed on the west side of the
Missouri river between Sioux City and
Omaha and its construction by j. J. Hill
would make Omaha the southern terminus
OF the Great Northern by reason of the con-
n~ections furnished by the Sioux City &
Northern and the Omaha Northern, the for
mer being already practically a Great North
ern line. If this proposition is carried out by
President Hill, Sioux City would be merely
a local station on the Great Northern.
