dividend Day" is marked with q
red letter in Wall Street and all other
financial centers. The delightful expert
ence Of being able to clip coupons Of
bonds and have them cashed in at the
pay window of bank or other monied
institutions comes to a considerable
number four times a year, but to the
ma ajority of these the first of July and
the first Of January are the dates that
represent the create gains and profits.
Here is where the "undigested securi-
ties" fellows are not in it.
The first week of last January there
was paid out In dividends by the cor
porations that figure in Wall Street re-
ports some $138,000 900. On the first Of
July this great sum was exceeded, the
figures published being at $150,000.000.
This is s10,0OO,000 more than was paid
| out in July, 1902.
The railroads are not just now paying
much if any more dividends than they
did last year, but the traction and light
ing companies show up finely, the stock
holders getting well on to 100000
| more than they did in 1902. The Tobac-
co Trust presented to it's stockholders

No Losses From Strikes.
Last fall some Of the newspapers
never tired of printing tables showing
the terrible losses suffered by the
railroads and the workers from the
strike Of the miners. The facts are
that neither side suffered to any great
extent in this regard. The miners have
had steady work as never before, max
| ing their yearly wages about the same
as if there had been no strike, while
the report of the Reading Railroad, just
issued, shows that this company breaks
even with the previous years record.

Gus year in which the strike losses were
heaviest Reading lost 50, SOC, 900. In the

interesting information concerning tht
city Of London. According to this re
port, in the administrative county of

houses, which shelter 1856, 5li per.
sons, or an average OF I SO as COM
pared with - ten years before. In
dustrial workers aggregate lob, III,
less than three-fourth Of whom are
males. The mortality in London dur
ing that year vas greater than that OF
Amsterdam, Brussels, Copenhagen,
Stockholm and Berlin, but less than
that of Paris, St. Petersburg, Vienna
and New York. By 1904 London-i.
O., the county council-will own 1857
miles OF tramways and light railways.
In 1901 the gross profit on those then

COMMERCIAL CLUB MEETING
Resolution Protesting Against Pas
sage of "AduIteratiOn" Bill
is Adopted.

Omaha wholesale merchants and manu-
facturers of food products have, through
the Commercial club, entered a protest
against the proposed law Intended to re-
quire all deliberations to bear a stamp
showing that they are not the goods which
they are represented to be for the purpose
of sale. The Commercial club took this
action after the matter had been presented
to 1t in the form Of a resolution by Charles
H. Pickens, who Is pushing the matter.
In support of the resolution Mr.. Pickens
said: e.
IT did not know thai Governor Mickey
was taking such an active interest in the
matter as he seems to be doing until this
morning. The governor seems to desire
the enactment of the law above all others
and l think we should adopt the resolu-
ton. Under the common meaning Of the
word, adulteration does not mean some
thing deleterious to health, nor does it
even mean something less valuable than
that for which it stands, but 1t does mean
that the original article has become Sc
firmly liked in the minds OF the people
! that a substitute must be understood to be
something similar to the original goods
so that it will sell"
The resolution adopted calls the atten-
ton of the governor to the ract that Me-
braska manufactures a large quantity OF
food products, which are sold not only in
this state, but in the surrounding states
and as far west as the Pacific coast; that
IL the proposed law is passed and a large
part of these products are required to bear
a brand which will raise a question as to
their purity, the same products made after
the same formula in other states will
drive the Nebraska-made goods out Of the
market, as they can be sold without the
Omaha daily bee., 1903-04-01

questionable stamp. The petitioners claim
tina they favor a national pure food law,
! but not one which will discriminate be-
tween the products of the several states.
In addition to adopting the resolution mem
bers Of the executive committee and other
members Of the club signed 1t.
The restaurant problem" is to be taken
up again by a committee consisting Of the
regular house committee Of the club, the
president, the secretary, r. S. Wilcox, II.
]. Penfold and c. T. Kountze. Mr.. Buthorn
submitted a statement yesterday, which was
referred to this committee with Instructions
to act.
WoAd was received from the promoters
Of the cattlemen's excursion to Belle
fourche saying that the party will leave
April s for a trip of eight days, spending
part Of the time at Deadwood and Hot

directed to round up the town, outside OF
the prescribed district. and report how

over their Official signatures that only one
house Of designation and no women OF bad
repute could be found outside Of the dis
trict.
Police officers who will indulge in suck
deliberate Misrepresentation are totally
unfit for any position in the public service.
You say that II l desire the good govern

to assist your board In its efforts to place
the police department on a business basis.
This Is precisely what l have been trying
to do in warning you against the employ

for an honest and eficient discharge of
the duties devolving on them. Yours very
truly, f. ROSEwATER.
The Police orgy at Blair.
The clipping from the Blair Pilot about
the police picnic, which was managed by
Haze and sigwart. is as follows:
The Omaha police picnic has come and
gone; fifteen coach loads of people came
yesterday morning and such another deluge
or drunkenness and ~debauchery has never
disgraced Blair before. There may have
been-probabiy was-some respectable, well
behaved people in the crowd, but they were
the exception. The rule was a rush and
constant occupancy OF the saloons, where
men and women INDUCED I'm scenes too

which the Black Crook and can-can were

streets, as the drunken prostitutes of

II seems to have been the outpouring Of the
slums of Omaha, who came here to have
"a high old time" undisturbed by moral
or legal r~estraint-and they had Il. For
her own reputation Omaha should pat a
qutetus on future police picnics. Surely
Blair wants no more of them here.

Haze and Sigwart for duty on the police
force. the Broatch board appointed Haze
a captain and put Sigwsrt on as a patrol
mar and soon advanced him to sergeant.
