CARPENTER PAPER COMPANY.

UP business in this city, employing over $500 men. The
jobbing business now amounts to $92,327, 900 a year.
Factories are putting out nearly 5000, 900, 900 worth of
products a year. Rea. estate transfers are close to $780,
100000, and the city assessment is nearly S35, 900, 900.
Figures can, Of course, give only an indistinct and
indefinite idea Of a city's greatness, but these are enough
to show that Omaha Is very far from being commercially
dull. Omaha is financially, commercially and industrially
great. Its greatness has practically been developed in the
last fifteen or twenty years and the greatest strides have
been made in the last ten.
So most Of these great movements have taken place
under the watchful eye Of the Ak-Sar-Ben kings. The
Ak-sar-Ben project has been a success in itself, and it
has made a success Of Omaha. Much would have been
done without 1t, of course. No one would credit one
agency with all that has been accomplished in fifteen
years, but it leads the boosters and the boosters have
made Omaha.

among the cities of the United States in bank clearings.
1t overtopped such places as Louisville, Minneapolis, Los
Angeles, Denver, Seattle, st. Paul, Buffalo, Indianapolis,
Washington and Providence, most of them cities at least
twice the size. In1894 the bank clearings amounted to
S24l,12l,O7S. In 1908 they amounted to 1902, 525, 1857,
almost three times as much.
There are many other comparative figures that are
jusLas astounding in showing the advances of the last
decade and a half. Live stock receipts have almost
doubled. In 1894 they we're: Cattle, S21,512; hogs, l.
932,677; sheep, 2~43,945. In 1908 they were: Cattle,
~1,O86,570; hogs, ~2,424,624; sheep, 2,1O5,S02. The total
receipts in 1894 were 2~,998,134 head; in 1908 they were
~5,566,996 head, nearly twice as many.

in The Bee had this to say of Omaha and the year 1894:
Starting out with prosl 3cts of the brightest, it closed
with a general feeling of distrust and uncertainty never
before experienced to such an extent here"
On January l, 1909, this same paper had this to say:
Omaha is just beginning to come into its own as a center
OF commerce and industry ana the achievements Of the
past are but a slight indication Of what the future will
see." Fifteen years ago the story was discouragement
and defeat. Now it is success and daring predictions for
the future.
Bank clearings are usually taken as a fair index of the
comparative volume of business. In 1895 The Bee said:
There is nothing in the reports OF the clearing house of
this city to be especially proud o. At the close of
August of this year Omaha stood In the twelfth place

THE LOCAL HOBO PROBLEM.

The apricot orchard at Glendale
burned yesterday by a gang of no.
boes may bear rich fruit after all
richer than it has ever borne, if the
destruction of it should suggest to
the authorities that hoboes and va
grants should be given no peace any
where in this community. This coun-
~ has the reputation of being good
10 the unfortunate and it should now
acquire a reputation of being hard
on the idler. These gangs which
camp along the highways and ca
nails ought to be transferred as
speedily as possible to Jail and thence
10 the rock pile where they could be
made to earn the right to live.
1t will not be a great while. we
trust, before work will be begun on
the territorial highway. There is
now. as there is at most seasons Of
the year. work for all who are will
ing to work Labor is always at
premium. When the highway build
ing begins the demand for labor will
still further exceed the supply.
Then the vagrant may find en-
ployment That is employment may
be forced upon him and if he shows
a disposition to shirk it, ball and
chain ought to hold him to it.
In the meantime these hobo camps
should be broken up wherever found
and the campers inspired with such
a distaste of the community that
they would abandon it forever imme-
diately upon their release from jail

Some pessimists believe that our
army management is not what it
should be, that in case it was put to
the test our military system would be
found to be as defective as the South
African war showed Great Britain's
to be. All this, however. is matter
of opinion unsupported by any proof,
but we have just seen the war de-
partment knocked out by the supreme

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
NEW YORK, Sept 24.-Though the
New York Americans haven't look in
at the pennant in that league they will
probably decide where that pennant
is to fly.
The Yankees by their double win
yesterday over the White Sox, proved
that they are garrison fnishers. They
have been playing splendid ball for the
past two weeks and they are confident
that they iwll be able to take the series
from the Tigers. who open here this
afternoon weather permitting. Connie
Macks Athletics are but II points be-
hind the Tigers and are making a game
effort to wrest the flag from the west
crners.
Jennings wants TO defeat the Yam
KEGS in this series, both TO hold his
lead I'm the league race and TO make
up for past defeats in New York. The
sentiment in New York is all for the
Athletics and the fans are praying that
the Yankees can keep up their grand
ball playing and put il all over the
Tigers in this series. The Yankees
yesterday won their eighth straight
game. their record for the season.
