DON'S REVIEW OF TRADE
Movement Of Business is Slow, but is
Large in Volume.
SITUATION STILL IMPROVING

of shoes from Boston
Increasing.

NEW YORK. April 16.-R. @. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow
will say:
Although the movement OF trade is slow
II Is OF large volume and steadily in the
direction OF Improvement. In iron and
steel the structural lines continue to re-
fleet q broader demand, contracts placed
thus far this month comprising a substan-
tial tonnage and considerable new business
Is also In sight. Tn railroads are taking
advantage OF the low prices named to
make necessary improvements and extern
sions, while the advancing season has
stimulated building activity In many sec
tons. One Encouraging feature Is the In
creased interest shown in pig iron.
Improvement in the shoe market is
steady, although the movement is quiet.
Some western and southern wholesalers
have begun to place fall orders For sum-
mer delivery. Shipments Of shoes from
crease of about rs per cent. as compared
with the same period a year age. Some
concessions are being made In prices to
are firm. The hide market is quiet but
prices are firm with most kinds OF pack
ers' hides slightly higher than a week ago.
The. report Of heavy transactions In
leather last week are now confirmed, the
largest sales being of hemlock sole. Bush
ness is on a much lessened scale this week
but trade on the whole is considerably bet
ter than 1t was a fortnight ago.
In the primary market for cotton goods
the effect of the recent heavy export busi-
ness to china is apparent. many mills
having turned over their machinery wholly
or in part to the production OF these goods.
While most of the busines taken thus far
has been for 3.5 sheetings, considerable in
quiry has been reported Of late for lighter
weights. a development which, should or
ders actually be. placed, will still further
strengthen the domestic market. On the
print cloth yarn division converters can nc
longer consider propositions for late deliv-
cry and I'm some instances a m foI
nearby goods has been paid. In narrow
lgrays, printers have operated more liberal
ly. but business on stable prints has moi
greatly improved. The wooiien goods mar
ket Is now awaiting the results of the Wis,
it's made thus far by statesmen on the road
and some duplicate orders have already
been reported.
Prices OF cotton yarns are Irregular Will

ness, while wooden and worsted yarns ar
quiet but steady and linen and jute are II

Republican Platform

10. No politics in police and fire de-
partment appointments - promotions
only for merit-dismissals only for cause.
II. Home rule-real home rule. not
sham home rule. We invite the atten-
ton OF the voters OF Omaha Ia the fact
that II was the republican party that
placed upon the statutes Of the state
the Slocumb law, by which genuine
home rule and a wholesome and ef-
fective regulation OF the sale as we'll as
the hours OF sale OF Intoxicating liquors.
up TO the time OF the late democratic
legislature, has been exercised by and
permitted to the various cities and
towns of the state.
y. We favor municipal ownership of
the water plant and declare that the
Water board, having exclusive and
paramount authority. should carry on
10 completion with all possible haste the
proceedings begun long ago to acquire
city ownership OF the water works to
the end that the amount required to
purchase the plant be definitely fixed.
Believing hat the demand for good
city government transcends party lines,
and hat the republican candidates are
far superior to their opponents when
subjected TO the test 81 fitness. in
tesrity and ability, we invite voters
OF all political creeds to join will US in
relieving this city OF the costly burden
OF Dahlmanism, and. by retiring the
Dahlman brand OF democracy from Off
cial power, to restore and uphold
omaha's credit and prestige at home
and abroad

w. A. Woodruff and Thomas Ken
yon, both OF Eagleville, were in Fallon
Saturday transacting business affairs.
Mr.. Woodruff is merchandising in
Eagleville, having succeeded his father,
now deceased, in the ownership of the
Eagleville store and also as postmaster
in the old stand that has made Eagle
vile a land mark for forty years.
Mr.. Woodruff stated that Eagleville
was attracting more attention at the
present time than at any previous per-
iod in its history and that new locations
are being made in the district daily.
He brought with him several new loca-
tons for recording and mining progress
is quite active. Mr.. Woodruff has a
contract for sinking and drifting on the
Troy and Buckskin groups of claims,
owned by M. R. Weddell, of Rawhide.
Frank Shaw formerly in the employ
of the Kent Company, is associated
with Mr.. Woodruff in the conduct OF

INDIAN SCHOOL OPENS.

Indian Agent Walter A. Van Voorhis
opened his school for Plute children at
Saltwater last week, and on the first
day had II scholars of school age, who
applied for school advantages. The
Indian bureaus plan is to feed them
dinner and allow them to stay home at
night. Household economy is taught
the children, in addition to the common
school studies. In institutions where
the children are keep throughout the
school year and later returned to
their tribes, they quickly lapse back in
to the tribal customs, but it is found
that where it is possible, children
taught at school and allowed to remain
among the tribe, that from association
with the children, new ideas uncon-
sciously find their way into the habits
of the older heads of the tribe and /,
great deal of good thus absorbed from
the children. This is said to be
the most practical course to pursue in
the education of Indian children, which
at the best is usually discouraging, and
and requires great deal of patience on
the part of the teachers.

Big WOOL CLIP
WILLIAMS BROTHERS MARKET
THEIR WOOL.
They Sell Their Entire Clip Con-
sisting of 100000 Lbs.
for 16c Pound.

The largest single clip of wool in the
state of Nevada was taken from the
backs of the bands belonging to Hon.
w. w. Williams and his brother G. B.,
the work of which was completed at
Argenta Saturday. This amounted in
round numbers TO half million pounds
of fleece of excellent quality, which
before the shearing process had been
completed. was under contract to the
wool buying firm of Finley, Gardner &
and Company, of Boston, for sixteen
cents pound. Although this price is
four cents in excess of that receiv-
last year, had the selling been de-
ferred for few days longer, the SELL
ing price would have been added too
by cert or two, as wool figures are
creeping upward. The wool is now
being loaded on the cars at Argenta for
shipment east.
Hon. W. w. Williams informs Us that
his present seasons clip is of unusually
fine quality and that the Viii Jams bands
came out of the winter in much better
shape than was anticipated, and the
lamb crop Is composed of good class
Of lambs. The ranges in Elko county,
where the bands are grazed during the
summer months, are very good this
year, owing to the unusually heavy
precipitation of snow and rain during
the winter months, and affairs for the
Nevada sheepmen start or very auspiei-
ouslv.

The local lodges of Odd Fellows, as
sisted by the ladies' auxiliary, the Re-

biggest and most enjoyable day in the
history of local Odd Fellowship. The
occasion which will be commemorated
On this date will be the Goth annivers
ssry of American Odd Fellowship, and
Fallon Lodge No. 81 /. o. o. F., Fallon
Encampment, and Ramona Lodge of
R,bekahs, have selected as the plsce
Of their grand picnic, spot on the
Thelan ranch as the most ideal and
convenient place TO cavort around, eat
ice cream and big dinner, the former
to be furnished by the generosity Of
county commissioner Z. P. Mclean,
and the latter by the ladies' Of the
Rebekah lodge, Mr.. Mclean IL the
Grand Master for this district and he
Is anxious that every Odd Fellow and
Rebekah in the county attend this pic
mic.
The committee on arrangements has
arranged the following named
events, which will add excitment to
day that would be otherwise far from

Race for girls under 10 years Of age.
Race for boys under 10 years of age.
Race for girls over ia years of age.
Race for boys over Ia years of age.
Race for Rebekahs.
Race for Odd Fellows.
Liberal minded citizens have provided
suitable prizes, not cash. so you need
not be afraid of leaving the amateur
ranks, and the various events promise
to be hotly contested. 1t is greatly
desired that every Odd Fellow should
see the Rebekahs speed down the Gin
der pike, for it is noised about that
some of our wives have all records
carfully slowed away about their per-
sons and on next Monday they are ex-
pected to show US what real speed is.
Great preparations are being made
for this anniversary picnic and a large
attendance of Odd Fellows, Rebekahs

means that project development will
now go along by leaps and bounds.
that an actual boom will occur during
the present season and that a general
awakening to the importance of our
agricultural lands will come about, for
the Truckee- Carson project authorities
will in the future, have absolute con-
troll Of the surplus waters of Lake Ia
hoe.
This year will witness for the first
time, the growing within the project of
sufficient grain and other produce to
supply the markets tributary. Local
firms have been shipping grain and hay,
butter, and eggs and even meat from
outside sections but this will no longer
be necessary, as, in the opinion of com
petent persons, we will have a consid-
cradle portion of our crop in the nature
Of surplus this year and available for
export. Already in the coast sections,
the virtue of our hay and potatoes
have come TO be known and as time
goes along their fame will increase, for
it is an actual, indisputable fact that
our potatoes are better favored and
our hay more nutritive than the hay
and potatoes raised anywhere else.
They have virtues peculiar to this
country and therein lies great asset.
An asset that will mean a ready mar
ket at a good figure. The writer has
been in California stores time and a
gain and heard customers ask for Ne
vada potatoes in preference to those
produced locally, which certainly would
Indicate the truth of what we say.
