JUMP IN BANK CLEARINGS
Omaha Moves Up to Fourteenth Place
Among the Cfties of the
Country.

Omaha has moved up to fourteenth place
in the bank clearings record OF the United
States instead of tho seventeenth place
which it has held for some time.
The bank clearings show that Omaha has
made a gain of over IS per cent, while
some of the other cities show a loss and
others do not show the gains they did a
couple of weeks ago. Minneapolis shows a
loss of 40 per cent and st. Paul a loss of
rs per cent and but for the remarkable
squirt Of Louisville, which made a gain of
COS per cent, Omaha would nave been in
thirteenth place. Omaha now leads such
cities in bank clearlngs as Cleveland,
Detroit, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, Seattle,
st. Paul, Buffalo, Denver and indianapolis
and is making rapid strides after some Of
the largest centers of trade.
This remarkable and continued increase
by the Omaha banks is not the result of
any boom period, but has been q steady
growth. which continued even during the
depression OF last fall, when other banks
of the country showed a decrease. This
fact accounts for the fact that some of the
cities are now showing a larger per cent
Of increase in comparison with the condi-
tons last year. When the financial furry
struck last fall the banks of eastern CEN
tiers showed a heavy decrease In comparison
with the year before and when COMPARE
sons are made with that decreased period
the per cent OF increase is, of course, much
larger this year.
The banks OF Omaha and the business
which is being done at Omaha as reflected
by the bank clearings are keeping Omaha
in the limelight Of the financial world.

TIT Dahlman Democracy Is broke

bills and Incidental expenses, the notorious
political club is in danger of vanishing ir
mid air, leaving the colonies on the boart
of strategy suspended by their swor'
belts. The club has been tottering since
election day and the presentation OF every
new bill makes It totter all the more, the
totterings being accompanied by many a
shiver on the part of the powers behind the
throne.
Heretofore the Dahlman Democracy has
been supported by monthly dues paid In by
the members, but this has proved INSULT
Client to meet all bills, which have been
increased to a considerable extent by the
recent Qualification meetings at which re-
freshments, largely liquid, have been
served. These bills have piled up higher
thar the receipts. and something had to
be done to change the existing condition
OF affairs.
The board Of strategy therefore held a
meeting and appointed Lee Bridges, Robert
u. Wolff and Harry McVea as a committee
to levy and collect an assessment from
democratic office holders. The committee
began work several days ago, but does not
report much progress. The trouble is that
the OFFICE holders and clerks are adverse

All the parties in the suit were Germans,
and Mr.. Murphy in his argument waxed

Of the German community in which they
lived. At the close OF his argument he
raised his voice and sang the first verse of

After he had finished singing Judge SUIT

proper to sing before a jury and asked the
Jurors not to let the song influence them

STAMPS ARE I'M STATE Fight
Christmas Stickers to BE Sold TO
Finance Anti-TuberculOsis
Society.

Substantial endorsements in Nebraska's
fight against tuberculosis arrived Friday
in the shape of several thousand Red
Crosse stamps, which will be sold at l cent
each. the proceeds going to the treasury of
the state association for the prevention of
the spread Of tuberculosis
The stamps are in the form of a paster
a little larger than q postage stamp and
are printed in red and green. A red cross
and a holly wreath surrounding the words
Merry Christmas" for a center for the
stamp and around this is printed "Ameri-
can National Red Cross Below the
wreath Is printed Happy New Year, 1903. "
The stamps are printed on the United
States government presses and sold to the
National Red Cross society, which In turn
sells them to the various state associations
for the prevention Of tuberculosis, There
n no profit in the sale to anyone, the cost
only covering the actual cost of making,
the remainder going to the society. From
each 10-cent sale the society derives 8
cents, and It is estimated that IL everyone
in the state would buy one stamp tuberou-
losis would disappear in Nebraska within
ten years. The stamps will be for sale in
the dry goods stores, drug stores, court
house, city hall and several office buildings
and mail ORDERS will be received by the
secretary Of the association, room 40S. City
hall. They will make attractive pastors
for doing up the Christmas packages and
Will serve to advertise the crusade if used
as pastors on letters.
During the holidays last year the state
OF Delaware cleared by the sale of these
stamps, $4,000 in seventeen days, with
which its tuberculosis day camp was es-
tablished. The plan originated in Denmark
four years ago in a crusade against tuber-
culosis the government Issuing the stamps
as postage. Eight million were sold the
first year and the stamp is now Issued an
nually during the holidays, The American
Red Cross society made an effort to have
the plan adopted in this country, but the
postal laws will not admit of it. The stamp
can not be used as postage, but 1t bids fair
to be popular as a holiday greeting on
much Of the letter mail this year. Orders
for over $500 worth of stamps had been
taken by the tuberculosis society before
they arrived.
