RIVALRY ON THE TRADE TOUR
Omaha Must Compete with salt Lake
and Portland for North
west Patronage.

An element increasing the interest in the
coming trade extension excursion OF Omaha
boosters" to the northwest territory has
been caused by the fact that competition
will be had with merchants from Salt Lake
City and Portland, who will hold trade ex-
curslons in the territory covered by the
Omaha excursion prior to the advent OF
the Omaha merchants.
Merchants from Salt Lake City win hold
an excursion through Utah and Idaho be-
ginning May 10 and the Portland merchants
will take an extended trip through oregon
and Idaho In June. Omaha will have TO
compete with these excursions and make
inroads into the work accomplished.
It is confidently expected the reputation
OF Omaha, in similar cases will be sustained
and the impression given by one hundred
representative merchants Of the market
town" viii counteraot the trade effect OF
the excursions OF the other cities who have
gone before.

One Of these, the bill to give the city

They need complete repair and resurfacinl

betrothed and while Karl is away to school
his brother matches a plot to wrest from

ingeniously spreading the report that Karl
is leading the life OF a libertine at col

she gives ample proof that she still loves

Franz is made a prisoner and placed in the

F. A. Nash, president OF the Omaha Elec-

not fair to Omaha to keep sending out re-
ports that tend to show that Omaha IL -
far away from the coal fields that the cost
Of power is almost prohibitive to manufac-
lures locating here.
There are many things which show the
cheap cost OF power in Omaha" said Mr..
Nash. "Our company is supplying all the
new elevators with power and this has been
a great help in building up the Omaha grain
market. II these new power companies
could supply 10000 horse power and sell It
they could afford to supply Omaha with a
cheap power, but when they have water
enough TO furnish 1000 horse power there
is nothing to It, Power is selling cheaper
in Omaha today than It is In Buffalo, which
Is only twenty miles away from the great
Niagara plants
There is absolutely nothing In the Platte
river power scheme and II Is rainbow

favorable condition, which. though It ex-
listed some years ago, does not now. and

In White Salmon during the past
year real estate values have increas-
ed fully 900 per cent. About four
months ago began agitation for wa
ter supply for the town and irriga-
ton of fruit lands. On Wednesday
a bonding proposition was favorably
voted upon, the amount authorized
being $4,000. Water will come from
Big Buck, IL miles from White SAL
mon. This creek has its source In
the glaciers of Mt. Adams and in its
course 1t passes through the forest
reserve, thus being protected from
contamination. There are numerous
cascades and waterfalls which keep
the water aerated. An inverted sys-
phon will take the supply over the
Salmon river and will be piped
through the fruit region. into town.
The irrigation scheme is public
