club rooms on December % and q, 1895,
and it was determined to go ahead and
hold the exposition. The Transmississippi
and International Exposition association
was formally organized at a meeting held

- Of significance for the
Kl4ks9kS growth and welfare OF
H'saSe7s the city as the time of
the Transmississippi and
International exposition. This great
enterprise was undertaken at a time
when II seemed like the most daring
attempt ever assayed by the citizens
In fact, It seems now, viewed from
distance In time that affords a better
perspective and considered in all
its several phases, that II was the most
daring, as we'll as the most momen-
tour work, on which the people of
Omaha ever embarked. It was pro-
jected at a time of such widespread
business depression that the wonder
now seems that its promoters had the
hardihood ard self-confidence to make
the suggestion.
And yet, It was the most reasonable
thing to do, after the panic of 1893
and subsequent depression. Material
growth in the west had reached a
point that was almost literal stagna-
ton. Any probable change was not
encouraging in the prospectus. for it
was hardly likely that the impetus
NEEDED was to come through natural
means, and for that reason the very
holiness Of the enterprise that should
again awaken energy and dispel the
lethargy that had overtaken the peo-
pie was the factor that determined ita

They DE-
With Garretson

The civil service board is In a
Quandary what to do in the case
of Max Garretson, caught with a
jumper on his wire to cheat the
city on electric Juice.
The board was jumping side
ways around the city hall all day
yesterday trying to get out of
the bad box its secretary had
placed himself and the board in.
The council was finally called in
consultation at o'clock, but aft
er an hour of conference nothing
was settled.
Some of the members of the
board want to retain Garretson
because he is an efficient clerk,
but that jumper business does not
look good.
