FOREIGN GOODS UND(" OMAHA NAMES. Bro he City—Omaha urniture stories—Where Chairs Are Made—Rest for the Weary. ym Factories o So much has been printed in theso columns s 1o the necossity for “home patronage’ that it does not appear necossary to add any- thing more for the present at least, on that branch of the subject. My attention on several occasions has been called to an abuse which must be looked t “home patronnge” will become a farce. peoplo of Omana are asking for home made goods, but it is a fact that thoy do not alwuys recoive what they ask for. A custom has grown up in the business world which makes it a comparatively easy matter to deceive tho public, that is the brandwg or labeling of goods with a name other than that of tho manufacturer, “'he dealer anxious toadvertiso himself and to mako his name and business appear "im- portant in the eyes of the consumer insists that his name and not tho manufucturers should appear on the goods, The manufaciurer anxious to make sal®® concedes tho pointand putsout his goods under what he calis *“special brands,” that is under the dealer’s brand and not his own, Thus Mr. A. n the grocery business solls flour branded, for example, *My Choice, Mr. A., Omaha, Neb,” and other goods in the same way. 1f a consumer orders Omaha mado four, he can send out tnis brand whe it may have been madeat some place 500 wmilos from Omaha, A gentleman calls for an ©Omaha made cigar and the dealer hauds out one from a box bearing his nawme, but that is no sign that it was mado in Omaha, for east- ern manufacturers, when requested, stamp the retaii dealer’s name on the box. Brooms made in the peuitentiary are nover marked 50 as to give the consumer the correct idea of their origiu, but if laveled at all they usualiy bear the name of the jobber or retail dealer. The consumer desiring to encourago homo industry cannot bo too careful in guardiig against decoption. Mako tho dealer identify his goods, and the best identification’is the manufacturor's own uame or brand. The cigar manufacturers havoscen somuch deception on the part of dealers that they will urge the Manufacturer’s association to adopt a Nebraska trade mark to bo con- trolled by the secretary of that organization who will'allow only Nébraska manufacturers to use it. Besides deceiving the consumer the spocial brand is a bid for the manufacturer to turn out inferior goods. When his name does not appear on certain articles tho manufacturer can not be expectod to take the same pride in its excellence as he would it his reputation Wwas at stake. It is not the ntention''to attempt any re- form in the matter ‘6f special brands, as the , custom ¢ 13 world-wido and cannot bo easily wiped out. The ovly object in mentioning the subject is to warn'the consumer thut when an article is labeled or branded with the name of a local dealet it is no indication that the avticlo was made in Omaha, I have noted that the:soap factories of Omaha appear to have teceived more benefit than most any other liué from the agitation of home patronage, and am inclined to ascribe it to the fact that soap is almost al- ways stamped with the manufacturer’s namo, which makes it impossiblo to deceive thi consumer, ¢ ‘Where Brooms are Made. In Omaba thero ary two broom factories, Fred Krause, 1317 Chicago stroet, and . £, Copson, 1109 South Fifteenth stroet, employ- ing sixtcen people, with a pay roll of §170 per week. One broommaker can supply all the brooms that would be used by quite a large population, but if all the retail dealers sold only the home-made article, work could easily bo found for twice tho number of men employed here at the present time. Tho home manufacturers are at a great di advautage 1n having to compete with peniten- tiary made goods. At Lincoln the coutractors pay the stato 40 cents per day for broom makers in the penitentiary and these goods entor into competition with the output of factories employing houest labor. In Omaha the floors in several thousand houses, the homes ot laboring men are daily swept by penitentiary made brooms. Many dealers, both large and small, in this city sell penitentiary brooms, why! because they can buy them for less money and make a greator profit. The consumer pays the same price as or a broom mado by honest labor. It may be of interest to tho thousands who wield brooms to kuow something of the method of manufacturo. The state of Nebraska leads the list of broom corn states and the farmers have found it a most profitable crop to raise. ‘The broom corn arrives at tho factory 1 bales of 300 to 500 pounds. ‘Pho first operation is the sorting, which 1s based on quality and color, the grecu being preferred. Tho broom-maker, fastening the handle into his machine, commences to tio on the broom corn_ by winding uround tho wire as tho handle is revolved. Ou opposito sides of the handle he binds on two bunches of the broom corn which makes the shoulder of the broom. Then he covers it with layers of finer broom corn, turmug the handle round and round, arawing tho wire taut and holding it with ‘an_occasional tack driven over tho wire and into the handle. It i3 bard work, standing alt day on oue foot and :sing the other to revolve the machine. Whon the broom leaves the hand of this fivst overator it has a sort of crazy appear- ance, suggestive of untrimmed hisiors, through which the wind has been freely cir- culating. ‘The next operation is tho sewing, which in some_ factories is done by haud, tho broom being held by @ clamp. In other factories o machine 15 1 use which does tho work faster and botter than it can be donc by band, Then comes the trimming which puts on the finishing touches and the work s com- plote. Ono factory in Omaha has consumed dur- 1ng the past year cighty to eighty-five tons of broom corn dt an avernge prico of $05 par ton, which shows tho importance of this - Qustry to the country. 1 only the laboring men Omaha, who are supposed to be intonsely hostile to prison made goods,would insistdpon having Omana brooms a great improvétient would be noted at once in this line of manufacture. Omaha Furnityra Factories. The ayerage citizon My not be aware of the fact that fuenitur® manufacturing has become an important induistry in Omaba but such is the case. Six factorios are engagod in the business and uro’émploying 237 people with a yearly pay roll of §193,(40. As no two of thesa factories are ewnged in turning out exactly the samo line of #ods it will be nec- essary to mention thenyin detail. Where Chairs Are Made. At the intersection of/&paulding street and the Bolt line there iss& tine brick building used by Murphy, Wasey® Co. as a chair factory. Maple and oide timber of which chairs are mado is not &0Nebraska product and accordingly the wolk ©f *turning” out the wood is dono at_the’ amills in Michigan and Iudiana. At all thdse mills there is a large amount of waste lumber, pieces too small for any other ' purpose, and theso are turned out 1nto chair rounds and legs, "The pieces are shipped from these mills to the Omaha chair factory, where they are put togother, polished and finished. ome of theso operations are very iateresung. The painting of the fancy _stripes to be seen in the choaper chairs is done by girls with a correctness and deftness really surprising. The weaying of the cane scats is also the work of girls. When finished the chairs removed to @ large room small wrmy of boys is employea in wrapping them with newspapers which protect them from injury ana they are then ready for shipment. ‘The foreman explained that only World-Heralds were used for this purpose, which are delivered at the factory ¥ load lots. s factory turns out 120 different styles, and to fill orders promptly keeps on hand coustautly a stock of thousands of ohairs, all are where & SIXTEEN of them wrapped In papers ready for ship- ment, Perhaps the most interosting department in this factory is thatin which woven wire bed springs are made. The wire passes through a small machine which gives it the coil and ahoots it along & table. ~ When the dosired longth 1s ob. tained the operator clips the wire and slips the end into the coil already tinished and the machine shoots 1t down the length of the table, weaving tho two togethe I'hus coil after col is added until the wite fabrio is of the width desired for the bed. Theso strips are four times the length of a bed, so that oach fabrie suftices for that ndmber of beds. One girl weaves in day as bigh as thirty six of theso strips, This factory runs four of these machines, Another machino stretches the woven wiro over the frame which is bolted togethe It sometimes happens that people is moving their fueniture take out the boits holding the frame and tho wire heid ata tension con- tracts and the springs have to be returned to the factory to be put togethor again Tho chair factory omplovs on an o 100 people, muny of them boys and g pays out in wages yearly §35,000. Rests for the Weary. At Thirteenth and Nicholus streets the Owaha Mattross company has a factory for the manufacture of matresses, feather pil- lows and comforters. mployment is given to fourteon peoplo with a weekly pay roll of £00, Tne method of manufacturc in au estublishment of this kind is too simple to require any description as it consists only in cutting up the goods, sewing tho pieces to- gether on machines and filling the ticks, Billow & Doup at Fourteenth and Daven- port streets arcmuking mattresses, bedding, woven wire mattresses, cots, spring beds, ete. At this place nineteon people find em. ployment and are paid weekly $130. In this factory they have several machines for weaving wire springs and s pickers for shreding the wool, excelsior, ete., used in filling the mattresses. Billow & Doup came here last January from Wichita, Kan. The wages paid to the skilled operators in all theso factories aro large, but tho averag is brought down by the number of boys and girls employed Tho Omaha Upholstering company is other institution valuable to the city as it gives twenty people steady employment with a pay roll of £230 por week. They commenced busitiess last Jauuary ana brought with them to the city eleven men and their familie They make ali kinds of upholstered parlor furiiture and are turning out suires costing all the way from §25 up to 8230, The frames for this furnituro are made in tho east, furnituro frame making being a Lusiness by itself, bat Omahais_large enough to have such a factory and “home patronage’ will bring one here. 3.-M. Hulse company is an institution with a factory at Thirteentli and Nicholas streets engaged in the manufacture of bed lounges. Mr. Hulso camo hera from Chicogo and by devoting his entiro time to the study of the bed lounge has made great improvements in its construction. The Omaha bed lounge is an articlo that cannot be cqualed 10 any city in the United States, This factory employes sixty people and last year distributed 0,000 in wages. Boebo & Runyan company aro manufact- urers of mattresses and chamber suites and employ twenty-four people, with a yourly pay roll of 316,920, Buy Clothing at Home. In Omaba there is any number of first class merchant tailors who ed the sputation of doing as good work as can be douo in any city n the country, and yet a groat many business men make' it a practico when they go east to leave their measure for clothing. ~ These men are mostly merchants who make yearly trips to the east for goods which they expect the peoplo of Omaha will buy, and why should they set the example of buying their personal supplics in the east. New Kactories Will Come. Since the agitation on the home patronage question was started manufacturers have been turning their attention toward Omaha, Iiven veforc the Manufacturers’ assoctation had becomo & reality the committes appointed to draw up a constitution was approached by two different parties who wanted to como to Omaha. Tuk BEE Lus re a number of inguires from similar sources and some of these are likely to materialize into something of benefit to the city. A company has already been organized, with & capital of 10,000 that expects o commence work about the first of the month on a tank factory to b located at the foot ot Douglas street. They will mako all kinds of tanks and vats such as are used in_brewerics, vine- gar factories, ete. They are caleulating on furnishing employment for thirty-five men at the start. The Grocers' Talk. Jadstone Bros.—Wo do not cater to the fanuly trade atall, and have not noticed any particular change, Our trade is almost cn- tirely among the restaurants, chop houses and hotels. = But for that matter we haye always handled Omaha-mado goods in every line and buy them in prefercnce to all others, For instance, we handlo a full lino of the Cousolidated Cofteo company’s goods, and tho same with all othor goods made by Omaha bouses, so that we have been rying out the principles adyceated by Tir Bee all the time, It is an excellent move and Tur Beg should keep it up. W. R. Bonnott Co.—Thoro has been a marked iucrease in the call for Omaha £oods, We carry a full line of them, and have no- ticed anincreased demand for goods of all kinds of home manufaeture since Tk Bre ommenced this agitation. It has in- roased our business, and wo & glad to seo it. Our trade s principally ~ among working people, and they seem to have taken up the movement in earnost. William Gentleman—I have noticed a rap- ialy growing demand for Omaha zoods and have had a uumber of inquiries for such goods from my customers. The ladies scem to think that the stores do not carry a line of home made goous and they ask for them as though they oxpected to b disap- pointed, but_tho movement is gwmn- ing strongth. There is one thing, though, that the wmanufacturers themselves seom t0 lose sight of, and that is this: They seem 1o think that a'grocoryman should work off bome made goods on his customers and ad vertise these wares to tho exclusion of all others, but they never seem to think that they must Go something to bring their goods before the peoplo. Now, these outside manu- acturers spoud thousands of dollars in ad- vertising their goods and creating a demaud for them, but av the same time the local manufacturers think a dealer should force home made goods on his customors where thoy ask for others. Lam ready and willing to do all I can in that direction, but I think the manufacturers should do something in the way of notifying the public what thoy have to sell and thereby creating a demand for their goods. Veirs Bros., grocers at 519 South Thir- teonth stroet,’ say that they have alwavs bought a good share of their goods from the local tactories, but there is now an mereased demund on thé part of their customers for Omaha goods. They have always made more or less of arun on Omaha soups. Tho city salesmen roport to them that the chango is noticeable all over the city. Frank J. Lange, gv at 606 South Thir- teenth street, is another who has pushed tho products of Omaha factories for all they are worth, He sends them out in every case unless the customer positively insists on hav- ing somothing else. Ho sells Omaha brooms exclusively, and Omaha soaps with the ox ception of 'a singlo brand. He also supplies his customers with Omaba flour = and yeast and says that tho article Is just as good and prices lower than other goods can be sold for after paying drayage. Ho knows from cxperience that whi there is a sentiment in favor of foreign goods it is the result of a prejudice that is without foundation. State Central Committee.
