This Minneapolls Y Has a New Scheme, The extent to which home patronage has been practiced by the people of Omaha has made serious inroads upon the business of some outside firms that have been growing fat out of Omaha, and sowe of these firms are maizing strenuous efforts to stew the tide of popular sentiment. In spite of the iact thatit has veen pointed outtime and again thut it is to the advantage of Omaba retail aeal- ers to promote homo industries, as it will im- prove their trade, many of them are assisting these outside Hrms to keep thew grip on Nebraska. The rotail dealers who are doing this are not the new-comers to the city, but they are men who have been in business in Omaha for years, meu who have made overy dollar they have out of the patronage of Omaha neople. 1n the face of this they turn round and stab their own city in the most vital point by aiding outside manufacturers to crush out the manufacturing spirit in Nebraska. The latest example of this hostility on the part of retail dealers to Nebraska indus- tries is to be found in the grocery trade, There was a time when the peoplo of Omaba believed that no flour was good unless it bore some Miuneapolis brand but after the home patrouage movement was set on foot they tried Omaha and Nebraska flour aud found it equal in every respect to the best Minneapolis branas. The discovery of this truth has materially cut down the sale of the leading Minneapolis brands in Omaha and the manufacturers of that city felt that something must be done or Ne- braska mllers wouid bo able to build up u business within their own state and in time bacome strong enongh to compete with Minneapolis in othor statos, Accordingly the largest fiour manufacturer of Minneapolis came to Omaha and perfected arrangements with the_enemies of home pat- ronage by means of which it is boped to once more make the public believe that Minneapo- lis 15 the only city that can make good flour. This Minneapolis miller brought with him a young woman who is noted as an expert bread and biscuit baker. The past week this baker has been operating in a well known grocory' store in Omaha, KEvery customer that enters the store, gentleman or lady, is wreated to hot biscuits, which are cerwain of oxcellent quality and taste, good esy cially to one whose appetite has besn sharp- enad by the exercise of shoppine. While partaking of this tree lunch the con- sumer is entertained by the glib recitalof tho fact that the flour was made in Minncanolis, and for fear that it may be forgotten circu- 5 are distributes 'his Minneapolisibake shop is not located in the back part of the store or under the counter where Nebraska made goods are so frequently placed, bus the best part of the store is given up to- it, the front counter close by the entrauees The clorks and the proprietor vie witlueach other as to which one can lead the greatest number of cuse tomers up to the frealunch counter and say the most complimentary thiugs about the Minneapolis flour ans the falr baker, Only about a weelkk is spent in a placo and then the bakery is:moved into some other store, In this way it is proposed w make the rounds of all the: leadwig grocery stoves, or as many of themma are willing to lend themselves to the @gid of Nebraska's com- potitor, Ladies who samphés theso buscuits, and are inclined to believe uhat they are better than the ones which they'get at home, wust bear in mind that there i a wide difference be- tween their & o waek sorvant eirl and the $15 agmonth Mioncapolis expert.
