FElsewhere the miléness of the weather is held account. | Thismay be true to a very small degree in Omaha, but the real cause must be looked for in another direction. 4n our opinion it will be found in the real estate boom of the past year. The favorable terms upon which the heavy real ostate owners have offered their lots to the working class has inaugmated a aystem of savings. This has to a great dogree tied up a large amount of money in real estate which otherwise would be in circulation.

Every cent is being saved by those people and applied on lots which they have purchased, and upon which they are building small but comfortable houses. This state of affairs, of course, has its effect upon the retail dealers. While it may put them somewhat at a disadvantage for the time boing, it is un- deniably a great thing for the future of Omaha, It anchors thousands of wcrk- ingmen in this community, and makes them substantial citizens. They are making every effort to reduce the indebtedness on their newly purchased property, so that in a short time they can call it their own. It encourages them to take adeeper interest in the welfare of the city. Many of the Omaha workingmen already have com- fortable homes entirely paid for. This class are now acquiring additional proper- ty, upon which they are erecting small houses for rent. They, too, are taking advantage of the real estate boom, and hope by judicious investments tv realize handsomely, as they undoubtedly will. This almost universal movement on the part of Omaha workingmen and shows that they are a frugal and in- dustrious class, who are the backbone of the city. In a very short time a majori- ty of them will own houses of their own, and bave no rent to pay. Then they will be able to live more comfortably and more independently. The high rents which have prevailed in Omaha for years have been a great obstadle for poor peo- ple to overcome. High rents have com- pelled them to seek some remedy against the burden, and they have found it in the advantageous offers thrown upon the market by real estate men. This raises the question whether rents will main- tain their upward tendency. The probability is that they will, for Omaha will next year, and for years to come, continueto grow rapidly. It follows, therefore, that all who now se- cure homes or put money in real estate will reap a handsome profit. Another evidence of the saving habit that is being acquired by working men and women is the fact that the Omaha Savings bank, an institution hardly a year old, has already deposits amounting in the aggregate to over £500,000. Nearly every dollar of this money came from the wage-workers. It is safe to say that there is no city in the United States where the working people asa class are better off than they are in Omaha, Iris just about as hard to get a man out of Uncle Ba's service as it is to get a man into it. This was the * experience of Deacon Richard Smith, of the Cincin- nati Commercial-Giazette, The other day the deacon called on the president and complained to him that he had just failed to induce Secretary Chandler to give a worthy friend, who had s licited his good offices, the position of chaplain in the navy. Mr. Chandler, he said, as- signed as his reasons for declining: h that the applicant was ten yoars older than the law required; second, he was broken in health, and disqualified be- cause he could not stand a physical ex- amination; third, the law limited the number of chaplaius, and every place was mow filled. The president suggested that ithere was room for move chaplaius in the department of the Platte, commanded by General Howard, This did not seem to |satisfy the deacon, amd he asked the prosident as a favor to assist him in got- ting a auan out of the seevice. President Axthur said that this was s0 rare a re- Gueat that it would certainly deserve at- teution, He seldom heard of such in- stances. *‘The person of whom I epeak,” continued Me. Smith, with wuch gravity, “is in the pevitentiary, and desires to get goard,” and the inactive, the ‘‘reserve | militin,” to be organized under state and } I territorial aws.

CITY WALKS AND TALKS. ——*“In the earlier days of Omaha, whenever a man wanted to make a stake he went into the whiskey business,” re- marked an early settler to the Bre's Man About Town; “*but now real estate seems to be all the rage. 1 remember that twelve or thirteen years ago— it was just after Omaha came to a stand still—there was only one real estate agent worth men- tioning. However, in 1873 or 1874,when the city began to look up again, there were four or five men who went into the real estate business, and three of them I know have made comfortable fortunes since then. Two former railway postal clerks, composing one firm, have made over £100,000. They recently purchased a tract of land for $20,000, which is bound to bring them in another $100,000 in a very short time. of the wonderful rise in property a real has since sold for $25,000. know a living the first year. authority that by a shrewd purchase of they will make between $15,000 and 20, a8 big as that. forty-one real estate agencies. other that threw up a position worth $2600 per year in order to go into real estate. making $500 a month. them are making money rapidly, the rest are making a comfortable Ii to be tetter than ever. money will be made in Omaha real estate history.” -——*While 1 was at the odera house some evenings ago to witness a perform- Paulding c¢)mbination,” said a well- theatrical audience. first to hiss when a biss deserved, the firat te see the ludicrou: i The rest of the audience invariably fol- low the gallery in approbation or disap- proval, %filn Riley and Fred.

For several years this has been in the minds of Colorado and United States ofticials, but the scheme has never been consummated be- cause of the strong opposition brought to bear. The plan, in detail, is to abolish the coining mint at Carson, Nevada, combine it with the mint and depository at Denver, erect a capacious building and coin money. Denver claims to be the most suitable place in the west for such an institution, The bulk of the precious mineral produced in America is taken from the ground in the vicinity of Den- ver, and it is there that the pure gold is extracted from the ore and the silver is refined. The metals, with all ingredients necessary for coining, are found in Col- orado, and if a coining mint is established there much money will be saved in the way of shipments. There are good grounds for asserting that the present year will witness the the death of the B. & M. as a distinctive system of railroad. Notwithstanding the denials of ofticials in this city, the consolidation of the road with the C., B. & Q. is practically accomplished. The recent sale of the remainder of the land grant of the company removed the only obstacle in the way, and on January 1st, 1884, the Burlington & Missouri River railroad in Nebraska will cease to exist, The necessary papers have been filed with the secretary of state at Lincoln, The C., B. & (. assumes control and management of the main line and branches and all liabilities This is not likely to produce any radical change in the present management of the road.

Cattle in the parks have never been af- fected with contagious or epidemic dis- eases of any character, and the percent- age of loss is extremely low. The expense of herding and wintering a large herd of cattle, say 1000 is from £1.20 to £1.50 for each head wintered. One herder in summer and two in win- ter are required for each 2,000 head of cattle, and their wages and board amousit tBy about $400 per annum each, Two hundred tons of hay for each 1,000 head is an extravagant provision, and the cost of putting it up should not exceed $2 per ton. This makes th total cost of keep- ing 1,000 head of cattle less than $1,200 a year. But allowing the cost of herd- ing and wintering cattle to average $2 per head, the expenses for ten years would amount to only §79,996 which de- ducted from thesales,in ten years $483,- 140,would leave a net ballance of £403,- 134, or more_than 80 per cent, upon an investment of £,000. The total assessed valuation of the ter ritory of Dakota, is $69,154,600, against 47,000 000 in 1882, This gives anin- crease of over $22,000,000 in one year. e The payments on the first day's sale of the Otve lands amounted to 17,000, Bidding valley much less than its usual volume | ' be that many merchants, failing to real- | [ | The people of Blair and Washington | PLOUR, SALT.
