FIGHTING FOR WAREHOUSE
Every Effort Being Made to Keep
Indian Supply House Here.
POINTS OUT oGICAL REASONS
Commercial Club cites Numerous
Reasons why Omaha ~ an Eco
nomtcaI Location for
Headquarters.

Omaha is stfl fighting TO be retained
BY the government as the location for one
OF the three Indian warehouses. There
are five in the United States. 1t has been
decided there shall be but three in the
future. Congressman Lobeck, after Wis
iting in Omaha a few weeks rushed back
to washington when the decision to cut
down to three was made. At Washington
he and Senator Hitchcock will have
fight on their hands to show that Omaha
should be logically retained as the To-
cation for one Of the three warehouses.
Logical Location.
The Commercial Club Journal this week
points out some of the reasons why
Omaha is a logical locations as follows:
Every we'll informed student of the
situation realizes that Omaha is the best
located of the five Indian warehouses now
being operated Omaha Is 500 miles nearer
to 70 per cent of the Indian schools and
agencies than any other warehouse.
Freight can be shipped from Omaha to
these various points much more cheaply
from Omaha than from any other ware
house. OFFICIALS In Washington know as
a matter of record that the United states
army has been buying supplies in Omaha
at lower cost per ration than anywhere
else. IL Is obvious that IL ordinary BUSH
ness principles are followed and true
economy considered, Omaha will be first
choice as a permanent supply department.
II Omaha does not secure the appoint
ment It would seem that the decision must
be based on something other than bust
ness considerations. At the time when
house system was considered before the
senate and house, Omaha advanced the
most effective arguments and put up the
strongest fight for the retention Of the
system. 1t Is needless to say that every
thing in the power of this club and the
Nebraska delegation In Washington is
now being done to secure a place for
warehouses.

HOTEL KEEPER GIVES
STRANGER AMOUNT LOST

Jens Karl Laursen, a young Dane, who
has been in America only a short time
and can hardly speak word of English,
reported to the Young Mems Christian
association and TO Chief of Police Henry
w. Dunn that he had been deprived of
IS Of his money when he placed 1t "for
safe keeping in the office of Thirteenth
street hotel. When Chief Dunn and Cen
eral Secretary r. F. Denison of the as
ISOLATION took the matter up with the
hotel. the proprietor denied Laursens
allegations, but paid the amount lost. "in
order to protect the reputation Of the
hotel" he explained. The Dane was
given a job as janitor at the association
building, so he is now quite happy again
