OMAHA FORTY,FIVE
YEARS AGO AND NOW
File of The Bee Shows Some of
the Same Problems Con.

CHICAGO ONE WEEK AWAY
By A. R. GROH.

Here's 'py OF The Omaha Daily
Bee OF February 10, 1872. The Bee
was less than year old then. four
page paper with six columns to
page "Ofhce-Corner of Twelfth
and Docge streets. Published every
afternoon, Sundays excepted. Deliv-
cred to subscribers at l2H cents per
week."
All OF the first page except one
column is advertisements. Among
the Photographic Briefs" is this: "A
feeling is being worked up among
wo-kmen in various cities in France
favorable to Louis Napoleon"
The young Bee was conducting a
campaign then against dirty and
muddy streets. This is reflected in
the Omaha Brevities," some of which
are as follows:
We hardly credit tn. report that a six
mule government team, wagon, driver and
all, disappeared In the mud on the crossing |
Of Dodge street over Twelfth. Still It might |

Omaha, for II they do they will be sure to |
bring back the city with them.

A theatrical notice states that miss

Metropolitan. She will positively ap-
pear tomorrow evening in East

Here is an advertisements: 1.-THE
Grand Duke has ordered Stein, the
tailor of Omaha, to send him one

Another advertisement advises peo-
pie to Leave orders with Edwards,
lS1 Farnam street, for the celebrated
Gillespy coal, the best soft coal in
the market, only $8." Coal was dearer
then than now, you see. IL
Even then The Bee was the watch
dog Of the public treasury, as this
editorial shows:
The city pays out $4,000 annually, with
10 per cent interest thereon, making In all
$16S,ooo. If cash were paid they would only
require $127,500 because the parties paid re-
ceive warrants at So cents on the dollar.
The city is. therefore. paying this differ

Applications to farm the right-of-

to the local headquarters by the hun
dreds. While no close estimate has
been made, it is figured that donating
the right-of-way to those who will cul-
tivate will add at least 5000 acres to
the crop-producing area Of the state.
Most Of the parties who apply for
the use Of the land indicate that they
desire to plant the greater portion to

ID. C.. RETAILERS KEEP
UP PRICE OF FLOUR
Baltimore Prices Decrease, But
Washington Gets No Reduction.

Flour is retailing in Baltimore at
from 81 to S11-30 a barrel. accord
ing to reports to the food administra-
ton
In Washington -four is retailing at
from S12 to S15 a barrel.
The food administration has just
reported another drop OF s1.25 in the
retail price in Baltimore, bringing
the figures down to those quoted.
There has been no similar drop in
Washington.
Speaking OF the Baltimore price,
the food administration says:
This price accords fairly well with
the present mill price. and indicates
a reduction in retail prices of So to
$40 per barrel under the average
prices for August. as shown by the
Department of Labor reports"
A food administrator for Maryland
has been appointed by the food ad-
ministration. None has been ap-
pointed as yet in Washington. 1t is
learned on good authority that Bal
timore retail prices responded to the
drop in wholesale prices when the
food administrator asked the retail
ers why the trend of retail prices had
not followed reductions in the whole
sale price.
In a number of instances retailers
have stocks that were bought before
wholesale prices were brought down.
They must get their money out OF
this flour.
At some OF the smaller grocery
stores in Washington -four in six and
twelve pound sacks is selling at
prices considerably higher than SIS
