PREPARING FOR
OMAHALAND SHOW

1t has been shown that an exposition,
the purpose of which is to turn the
stream of emigration, which has been
going from the middle west to the
south and to Canada, toward the west
can be made an annual event. This
is the opinion of the management OF
the Omaha Land show, expressed when
they announced that a second show
would be held.
The first cOlonist rate, March III.
saw the greatest number of people pass
through Omaha to the west ever ear
ried over the railroads in single day.
Since then hundreds of trains have
carried homeseekers privately organiz-
ed parties of colonists and investors
into the new west through the Omaha
gateway.
A statement of the aims of the show
by c. G. Rosewater, general manager
of the Omaha Bee and the Twentieth
Century Farmer, the publications
which stand back of the exposition,
follows:
cit is something more than show;
more than merely an instrument for
the use of the land man in selling land
1t is more than a mere collection
of the best products of the west.
X is more than a great object les
SON in the best methods Of agriculture.
1t was not started for the purpose
Of making money in the show business
or to attract crowds to Omaha.
"The object Of this exposition is to
meet a great vital problem-to stem
the tide of emigration now going to
the north and to the south and to d.
rect this stream westward. =
The people of this community have
been invited to take part in the Omaha
Land show and to receive their share
in this big migration. 1t will be held
from October 10th to 28th. These
dates will give the fruit and grain
raising sections of the west a splendid
chance to show their products at their
best.
The Land show will be held at the
Coliseum in Omaha, the great strue-
ture where for many years the knights
In this building the great Of the ma
tion have been initiated into the mys-
|teries of the Knights. Distinguished
visitors from every state and every
land have been among them. There
Theodore Roosevelt and President Taft
were made members of the order.
To fit this gigantic building for the
purposes of the Land show it is being
largely reconstructed. The Coliseum
has been clothed in concrete, cast in
mission design. The interior has un
|dergone artistic treatment, adding to
the beauty of the structure and giving
greater room for the, exhibits, the
splendid court Of honor, the beautiful
electric fountain and the panorama.
Four large annex buildings are to be
erected later.

COM MERCIAl CLUB.

The annual election of officers Of the Mesa Commercial club took place last night at the club rooms. There is a vast amount of work that this organization can do for the town. if it will. At present land buyers are Dc ing carried through Mesa to other points and induced to invest. To this there can be no objection; but a DOT ton of the new settlers could b. se- cured for this immediate vicinity If the local commercial organization was properly on to its job. This is n general view taken by many of the members and not an opinion of the correspondent solely. Members who sit back and kick, doing nothing themselves. are as much to blame. as anyone. for any mistakes of tine club. and it is up to them now to be at the meeting and take a hand in the management of affairs. Thee is work for the organization, and that work should be done now, and done in the right manner Don't forget that the election of officers takes place at the club rooms Saturday evening, Decem- Der 4th.

THE OUTLOOK IN ALMA.

Alma precinct has had the reputation of being the banner democratic pre- cinct of the county but the indication this season is that there is a wide split in the faithful ranks while the rc- publicans of that section are united and will poll the heaviest vote that has ever been known in Alma so far as the republicans are concerned.
 Next Tuesday evening a big rally will be held at the old meeting house. Alma, at which all the county candi- dates will be present. Democrats, so- cialists and republicans are all want ed at that time. The issues of the campaign will be candidly discussed and the merits of the opposing can didates fairly set forth.
