Bl AN OMAHA S IT, And Says That This Season's Barnum Show Beats the World, A prominent citizen of Omaha recently saw the Barnum & Bailey show 1n Chicago and gives the following very enthusiastic description of his visit: ‘‘The menagerie seemed different from any I ever saw,” he continued, “The animals looked so fine and healthy and then there werea good many 1 had never soen before although I am a con- stant circus goer. There is a Bongal uger tiers that really looks a foot taller than any over in Omana, and auother cage contalning three great big male lions and still another with five lions and so on, everything seemed botter represented than any menagerio it has been my pleasureto sec. I was taken back by the iltusions for they were neariy all new to me, and there was an old lady who stood by my side who Insisted thut they were not alive, but I know tboy were for I spoke to some of the girls. But che part that I liked best was the performance. First they had the graud entree which seemed to contain wmore performers aud horses than I ever saw before in any show and then the cir- cus came and she's a_dandy, too. That Miss Davis and Willie O'Dale beat any riders I ever saw and in fact the whole circus outfit and the hi%pmlrumu races were the best I ever saw, ut the spectacle of ‘Columbus’ 18 100 much for me to describo and do it jus- tice. The scenery 1s high as & two-story house and they look as life-like as if they were on the spot and the ballet is a revela- uon. Think of a line of girls three deep and extending from Tue BeE ofice pretty near to the Karnam street theater and all trained dancers and pretty girls. And the costumes are gorgeous. I mnever saw any- thing like them ana the beauty of it all is the story is so familiar averyone can understand it. Omaha never saw any such show as Bar nu‘m's this year, No take my wora for it.” - 200 Omaha grocers sell Domestic soap. B Spoctaclos adjusted for defective vision. Dr. Cullimore, R. 224, Bee bldg.

Omaha has been lurid with circus announcements during the past two weeks, and the man, woman or child who does not know that Ringling Brothers World’s G.eatest Shows will oxhibit in this city on Monday, August 1, must be beyond the reach of the newspapers and the irrepressible bill- poster. There are also some indications of & circus war, with the inevitable claim on the part of cuch of tho rival shows that it, and it alone, isthe big circus. All this is very interesting to the public, and culculated to arouse intorest and excive curiosity. As, how- ever, the Ringling Brothers circus is here on August 1, while its rival does not exhiblt here until seven weeks luter, the first arrival seems to have best of the controversy. Owmaha is proverbially a groat circus town: last scason all of the three circuses that exhibited hore played to big busin nd the small shams that have been bere this year have played to the capacity of theircan- vass. The Ringling Brother’s eircus will be the fivst big show to exhibitin Omaha this season, and while it has never been seen here, it is so woll known by its outside reputation, thatu suce ful duy is a foregone conclusion. Be- sides, thore is a reasonable suspicion that the public will welcome a chango from the shows it has been accustomed to see year after year, and that this new claimant for popular fuvor will bo met with outstretchod % The Ringling Brothers elaim for tifeir big amusement enterpriso that itisa cireus puro and simple. Thero is, to be sure, & spectacular entey, but this is moarely an incident of the show. The en- try occupies ten minutes: tho races twenty minutes, and the cireus propor one hour and a half. There is no show now before the pubiic that can compare with it in the length of thoe circus porformance or the number of high class circus acts presented. The Milwaukee Daily Nows of Monday, July 19, in speaking of the show said: “Of thé performance noth- ing but words of praisa can bo siid. The show was packed with a surfeit of good things. and the Ringling Brothers have made a re that will be hard to beat. The Kanas City Journal, on the morn- ing after the recent exhibition of the show there, smd: *‘Ivis asimplo state- ment of fact tosay that the performances of the Ringling show under the mighty canvas yesterdny and last night were the finest ever witnessed in Kunsas City.” These are notable words to be said of any exhibition, and as all of the newspaper comments elsewhare, with- out exception, have been of a commen- datory character, it is fair 1o assumo that they are true. This is the more arkable when it is known that in at st one instance of the two papers cited, a considerable sum of money was offered by o vival to have the Ringling Brothers’ performance condemned by an un avorable notice. The question might be asked with itutes agroat L is that the | that has the The Ringling i circus is the show most and best circus acts. In their esti- mation a pantomime under canvas is not, circus performance and cannot be sed as such. They have adopted the principle that people who want to sce u circus at all want the circus pure and simple; they want great acrobats, great and great ae lists, greav riders, avenic performers of all kinds, they have exemplified their theory bringing together what is said to be the strongest aggregation of high class per- formers that have ever been seen with a single show. As a result their busi- ness hus been phenomenal everywh and in Omaha there is o constuntly in- creasing cur to see an exhibition that has attracted so much attention elsewhere. e TWO VERY AGED NEGROES.

Wober, jr., 113 N. 15th, ProSiaveat 11 ey On the Other Siide of Anti-Options, Oy, July —~To the Editor of Tue Br Having lately read several articles favoring the passage of the anti-option bill, now ponding in the United States senate, we should like to bo permitted to advance un argamoant on the other side. The first and most practical question which suegests itsolf is, how would Nebraska be affected should the Hatch-Washburn bill pass and be effective! The first result would bo that the Chicago Board of Trade, which is really the grain ana produce exchange of the world, would be wiped out, together with the othor smaller exchanges. As a natural consequence tho small dealers who buy from the rarmers at all tho country stations, and mike thelr little profit by shipping at once All king paired by to market, or selling for future deliv- cry on the Chicago Board of Trade, would find themseclves at once out of the business. Bven if they had suficient capital they could at best fill thoir small warchouses, coase buying and wait porbans ‘, six months, until a slow, consumptive mar- kot gave them an outlet and to do that and make any profit they would require to buy from the farmer at starvation prices. Itis evidont that in such circumstances tho gramn buying in the country would fall into the haiids of the mammoth mill companies (such as Mr. Washbura's) and large corporations which coula control immonso capital, or, more likely still, that railroad corporations would build olovators along their lines and monopolize both freights and prices. The plain probability of either alternative sooms a sorry rosult of legisiation ostensibly - tended to benelit the farmer, Such restric- tive legislation is naturally followed by and monopolies, low prices to 000 bushels of gram, and it it would be put- ting it mildly to assert that 5 cents a bushel less would go into the farmers pocket unaer the new dispensation than they would re- ceive by the old method, making a differenss in this state alone of $12.500,000; and who would be benefitea by tho aunuul 10ss to the state of suoh a large sum? Probably some railroad corporations, or large milling com- panies, or trusts, but assiredly not the con=. sumers. Now is tnis ail? The farmers woul probubly not find a suficient market to tal all they offered at any price at times of greatest pressure. Multiply this disarrange- ment and loss by the number of the othe states and you can see what widespread dis- uster mighi be brought ubout by this bene. ficent legislation. There scems to be a crent deal of misap- prebension in the pubiic mind as to the effect on prices of tho operations of the boards of trade, There is hardly room to question the fact that they teié! to keep the price from falling at times when supply most exceeds demand. The best illustration that can be given of that is the history of pricos for the lust wheat crop. Whon farmers were pouring in their wheat by thousands of oars a day last fall to Duluth, Munneapolis and Chicago, and the Chicago market bad to bear the load of it a1l (40,000, 0)) bushels), the price pma was #l por bushel and ‘over. ‘U'he wheat afcerwards went 10to consumption at S0 conts por bushel. The spaculators who bought it had $0mo cause to ree, but surely the farmer bad small ground of complatut. The fact i3 that the enthusiastic nature of most speculators leads them generally to buy, and their com- bined buying briiges over tho time of ex- cassive supply. It is haraly too much to say that the Chi- cago Board of Trade moves and regulates the crops of the world. The Liverpool buyer of wheat in ludia sells against it 1 the Chi- cugo market to avoid the risk of change of price during the voyage, The extent to which it is used by dealers, miilers and manufacturers In the United States and abroad to give safely to their Lruasactions is little appreciated by those who seck to destroy o mighty engine of commerco to ro- pluce it by nothing. As regards the question as to whether speculation is allowable: It seems to us that every farmer, dealor, merchant or manu- facturer is less or more & speculator, having opinions as to whether particular prices are 90 high or too low, and governing his ac- tion as to buylug or selling in accordauce with his ideas. i’inite human judgment s frequently wrong 1 its efforts to compre- hend all the fuctors included in the phrase “supply and domaud” Theso are af- fected by price and by weather, by trans. portation, by the muceds of the sellor and the poverty or riches of the consumer the world ovor, and & thousand changlug conditions, The word “‘price is a crystaliz. ing of all toose conditions, and what 1t should be is the most interesting problom under the sun. There is no wonder that men should so exercise their wits over it and we do notsee why such oxercise should be rigut as appliod to loather and wrong s aps pliea to wheat, It seems t@.us outside the scope of good govornment for congress o intorfere with a useful commercial system which is so closely intergoven with the entire trade of this and othgreountrios. 1tis cspecially objectiona- ble when it is so clearly class legislation and when its promotors aré so plainly liabloe to tho 1mputation of personal and soltish mo- tives.
