II must be supremely gratifying TO
every one interested in Omaha that the
city's forward movement should be SO
steadfastly progressive. Omaha has
had it's ups and downs in the past, but,
except for the setback received from
the drouth years Of the early nineties,
followed by the financial depression
which was especially severe in these
parts, it has always made steady gains,
even though the pace may by turns
have quickened or slackened.
For the last ten years Omaha has
been notieeably ON the up grade and
never more so than right now. In
every field OF commercial and indus
trial activity, whose expansion makes

facilities are better now than ever be

employment to a large army OF wage
workers, and its wholesale houses sup

DENA rURIzED ALCOHOL IN SENATE.
The reported intention of a majority
of the senate finance committee to enter
upon an independent investigation of the
subject foreshadOws tedious road
which the bill freeing denaturized al
cohol from tax will have to travel In
the senate. For such an investigation,
requiring examination and summons Of
a great number Of widely scattered ex-
perts and other witnesses. If begun at
this point in the session. will be likely
to delay the matter till too late period
for action. even in the absence of other
means of defeating it.
The bill passed almost unanimously
by the house and now in the hands of
the senate committee was prepared with
extreme care, the executive departments
in any way concerned with the subject
cooperating to perfect the measure. The
house ways and means committee, hav-
ing taken up the work promptly when
congress convened. devoted months to
an exhaustive investigation, and in fact
examined thoroughly most Of the wit
nesses which the senate committee
would have to call before it, The COM
plete record of all this information is
actually before the senate committee,
and has been available to its members
as TO the country, from day to day as it
was made.
Naturally, therefore the interpreted
lions of the reported purpose in the SEN
ate committee now to go over all this
ground is pure hostility to the bill and
desire for delay rather than to gain new
light on the subject The immensely of

prompt passage in the house excites
corresponding though disguised opposi-
ton of the senatorial representatives of
monopollstic interests. The simple fact
demonstrated beyond doubt that the
bill would create an economic ad-
vantage, both for agricultural producers
and the consuming public generally,
representing an immense saving below
the cost of mineral oils and other fuels
now used and largely supplied through
monopollstic agencies, by itself invites
obstruction and delay possible in the
senate. Nor will it be strange If these
agencies avail to defeat the house bill,
at least so far as this session of congress
goes,
