Tuar Bxe is a paper in which all western readers will not fail to be interested. | Saline Couonty Standard: THE Owuasa Bre's Annual Review of the city of Omaha is the finest piece of work produced by that paper in its serles. The cuts of Omaha’s hand- some buildings are fine, among which are many new buildings erected dur- ing the past year. Boyd's new QOpera House Is one of the finest buildings in the city. Omaha is bound to be the city of Nebraska, and it is a pleasure to Nebraskans to see their mptropolis presenting such a prosperous growth for the year, and now having public buildings and res- idences eqaal to much older cities. The Bek is indeed doing Omaha and itself credit by its industry.

Republican: One unanimous testimony must roll up from all over Nebraska that TrE OyaEa Bee's Annual Review for 1881 is valuable as it is handsome, and bandsomo as art can makeit. Its worth in advertising Omahs, and in- directly Nebraeka aleo, is beyond any expestation that can be formed before seetngit. This review is of eight pages, the fonr outer ones being filled with iitkographic reprasentations of Omsha’s progrees in the past year, all new except those two old stand-bys that could not be cmitted—the High School building and Champion S. Chase. The inner pages are filled with descriptions and reviews of such nature as make it valuatle for refer- ence. Mr. Rosewater is making his erain Omaha an eesy task for the fatare historian. Blair (Neb.) Pilot: Tae Owmana BeE's annual review, just received at this office, Is away ahead of anything of the kind that we haye ever seen. Unlike the daubs that are generally sent forth as illustrations of a city’s enterprise and substential achieve ments, the illustrations in Tae Be zeview are excellent samples «of artistic design and workman- ship. The proprieters of Tae Bre are entitled to much credit for the superiority of their work and the painstaking labor displayed in their Roview. The city of Omaba, and especially the large property-holders, owe THE BzE a gigantic debt for its labors in their behslf and we are not quite certaln whether or not the city ought not (in justice to the proprietors of Tre Bek) to vote THE BER a subsi- dy for its work in the city’s interest.
