FIGHT FOR INDIAN WAREHOUS
Nebraska Delegation Up Against Sc
rious Proposition This Time.
PAY VISIT UPON CATO SELLS
Present Statistics which show
Strength of Omaha and It's Claim
to Recognition as Perma-
nent Warehouse site.
(From a staff Correspondent,


WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-(Special Tele-
gram.)-An old story that has been told
al almost every session of congress for
the last ten years was told today to Cato
Sells, commissioner of Indian affairs, by
Senator Hitchcock and Congressman Lo-
beck, wherein they asked that Omaha be
made one of the three permanent In
dian Tupply departments provided for in
the Indian appropriation bill which be-
came a law on August /.
If any city ever had to fight for an
institution created by the government It
has been Omaha to retain the Indian
supply depot Every Omaha men<r
and every senator interested in Omaha
has been compelled TO fight off ambi-
tious towns that desired an Indian supply
depot in its particular locality.
Senator Hitchcock had to defend Omaha
when member of the lower house. so
had John L. Kennedy and Dave Mercer
and now Lobeck. The Indian supply depot
at Omaha has been a foot ball of politics
and now democrats are called upon to
retain the depot at that place.
Statistics show Up Well.
Commissioner Sells was surprised at
the amount of goods purchased and in
store at the Omaha warehouse. He admit
ted that the service had been excellent
but asthe BILL which was signed by the
president on August /, limits the number
of permanent Indian warehouses to three
and as there were five cities that sup
piled stores to the Indians under former
acts of congress, it will readily be seen
that Omaha is up against it," for st.
Louis, Chicago and San Francisco are
candidates as well as New York which
makes the running hard.
Congressman Lobecs said he expected
decision in a short time, but he was
not optimistic, as to the result
Appeal for Assistance.
Congressman Loneck today received a
telegram from Henry f. Wyman of
Omaha. asking his TO use his friendly
offices with the State department in get
ting into communication with Charles II.
Brown, also Of Omaha, who is at pres
ent in Austria, presumably in Vienna.

other officials of the reclamation serv-
ice, instructed by wire Supervisor ODon-
NELL who has charge of irrigation work
east of Denver, TO go Immediately to Lin
coin and Dawson counties of Nebraska

drouth stricken localities.
Judge Kinkaid presented in the most
forcible manner possible the needs of
the farmers in Lincoln and Dawson coun-
ties particularly for relief. in view of the
fact that there farms were burning up
because of lack of water and he made
demand upon the government to turn
the impounded waters of the Pathfinder
dam on to these lands.
lie stated to the secretary early action
was necessary to prevent irreparable loss
by drouth. He stated 10 the secretary
that he had advices that ten irrigation
organizations in the counties affected
had filed applications for water under
the Pathfinder dam and he though that
humanity would warrant the secretary
of the interior in straining a point and
turning on the water in order that the
crops that had been planted In these
counties in particular should not burn up.

PRICES IN 1860.

With the high prices that prevail to-
day. it is interesting to, revert to some
of the prices that prevailed in the days
of the other great war, the American
Civil war; though this is not meant to
say that the present war is the cause of
high prices in this country. a reference
to old memorandum books and receipt
ed bills gives some interesting facts.
We find for instance, 5A pounds of
sugar cost 81. or a little under 20 cents
q pound. \ half barrel of apples came
TO So, and a pound OF tea was a luxury
that few could afford. since it set the
buyer back %l.40. \ quarter of pound
Of nutmcgs brought 45 cents, whereas
for that money nowadays one could buy
enough uutmegs to keep the family sup
piled for half their natural lives. \ gal

sweet potatoes were 80 cents, molasscs
