would still owe $6s10 per capita, or
about four-ifths of her whole debt.
A good illustration of the number
of people coming to this country from
Italy may be had by the following
statement: If the immigration into the
United States from Italy last year had
been followed by an emigration from
the United States TO any other coun.
try in the same proportion, and all
these emigrants had gone from the city
of Chicago, there would now be only
sixty-three residents in the great me-
tropolis Of the Middle West,
Drawn Millions From Abroad.
Since the foundation of our Repub-
lie the magic of it's name has drawn
$4,000 900 men and women across the
seas. If they had all come from Spain,
Sweden and Norway, there wouldn Z
be single inhabitanit left today in the
three kingdoms mentioned. The move
ment TO America is distinguished from
all other migrations in that il has
drawn, not driven. The great mira
European migrations, the "folk wan
dering" Of the fifth and sixth centuries
OF the Christian era, that resulted in
the overthrow of the Roman empire by
the German tribes, was movement of
the chieftains who forced their serfs
and retainers TO aid them to strike out
for victory and spoils; but the tide Of
homeseekers that has swept TO Amer
lea was a movement inspired by the
individual seeking to better his condi-
tion. He has come from Europe by the
! millions, and yet so great is the land
which receives him that, while Europe
has 114 persons to the square mile of
territory, North America has but thir-
teen. and the United States proper but
twenty six persons 10 the square mile.
In searching history for some com
parison of migration, it seems that the
pilgrimage of the lsraelites was the
first great "trek' of which we have
an authentic account. II is believed
that there were about 100000 souls
involved in that movement, which last
ed forty years. During a similar period
the United States has attracted 20,000,-
600 homeseehers, so that, as a drawing
card, our country seems TO outrauk
Canaan by twenty TO one.

the inevitable result of his con-
viction through to the highest
courts only to lose out in the end.
The ultimatum was received only
a month ago by the United States

ari applied for by his attorneys.

This is the season when it be-
hoves the careful citizen to pay

discover its your own domicile.

it in Its earlier days.

South Omaha Market.

Clay, Robinson & Co., commits
sion merchants, issued the follow
ing report yesterday.
No change of any consequence
was noted in the cattle trade on
Monday. Receipts were not
too heavy, and while there was
little snap to the market, prices
were not quota bly, different on
killers. Feeder buyers were lack
ing, and on this account, and
with weather conditions uncer-
tain, nearly all kinds of stockers
and feeders were lower. Yester-
day the suitation was STICKY,
Only the best grade of steers
were attractive enough to bring
steady prices; che others were
hard sellers and always went at
shaded figures. Common cows
and heifers were 10 to l5c lower;
feeders suffered, too, in about
the same degree. Possibly the
best fat steers and some choice
heavy feeders will bring steady
prices, but all others without ex-
ception, are 10 to 15c lower, and
in some cases even more. Half
fat steers comprise a great per-
centagc of the offerings, and
they are always unattractive and
poor sellers at this time of the
year. In fact trade has assumed
the usual "before the Holidays"
appearance, and there seems
little Likelihood of a reaction dur
ing the balance of the year.
Good to choice heavy beeves $500
to $3.50; fair to good 1000 to

Holiday Trade in Full Swing.

Broken Bow people have APP
parently taken to heart the
warning. do your Christmas
shopping early" Stores yester-
day and today were crowded.
The throng of shoppers in ore
of the stores was so large that
it was almost impossible for the
clerks to wait on them, The
Gro 8ds led one proprietor to re-
mark that if tn trade kept up
like that until Christmas day,
the holiday season of 1907 would
be q record-breaker.
During the early days of the
so-called panic, travelling men
complained that the local mer-
chants were slow in ordering
their Christmas goods, d that
they were cutting their usual
layout. The immense stocks of
goods most of the merchants
have on hand now is an eloquent
denial to that statement.
"It's like the bursting Of a mill
DAM" one business man put it,
in speaking of the unusually
large early trade. "Now that
the people have had their con-
fidence restored, they're mixing
up for lost time. / predict a big
business season during the holt
days"
The line of Christmas novelties
displayed contains the usual
number of new ideas, especially
so in the toy department.

Mr.. Wares ranch interests. BY
good behavior Mr.. Ware will re-
ceive reduction of sixty days in
his sentence of imprisonment
during the year. Nothing will
be undertaken at present looking
toward securing his pardon. His
friends in South Dakota, who
are still loyal to him, particularly
those of his old parish at Dead
wood, where he officiated as a
minister of the Episcopal church
and from which he resigned upon
nouncement of his sentence, will
move toward securing his pardon
