PEOPLE MUST HAVE WORK Reasons for the Quiet Provailing in Retail Circles. OPINIONS OF PROMINENT MERCHANTS New 1 e Introduced That will astries Muast Give E Poop! win aployment to More Betre Bus e Active. Enterprises of a puroly local character in Omuba have suffored more or less from dull- ness during the past two years or more. It mualkes littie difference in what girection you look, whether to the real estate vusiness, to building eutororises or to the seliing of goods at rotail, the conaitions have been practically the sume, with fow exceotions. Fven when tho volume of business has been fairly large there has been a uoteworthy ab- scnce of that snap which leads people 10 ob- gerve, “‘business is good, trade 1s active.” While these facts have been only too appar- ent to those fnterested in the welfare of the city, littlo has been said openly regarding the subjoct. Tnere is, however, apparently & growing feoling that the time has come when the facts must bs admitted and a prac- tical remedy devised. Public pride and the fear of injuring the city’s roputation have led many to endeavor to cover up the true facts. There i: how ever, nothing in the statemeat that local enterprises are dull of which to bo ashamed. Other western citios have eoxperienced and are experiencing the same thing in a greater or less degreo thun Omaha and are maling strenuous (florts to better their conditions It is far better for Omaba to admit the facts and work out a remedy than to deny them aud do nothiug. A great many business men of Omaha are ving something must be doneto bring about a change, but what this “something” shull be is the question to bo settied. Per- bups the most ingical way to haudle the ct 1s 1o first consider what aro tho actual couditions, and when they ure ngreed upon to consider if thore isuny available Temecy. The introduction of electric motors fur- nishing rapid transit from the sucurbs to the centar of the city has hud a centralizing effect upon the retail trade. Peoplo residing in tho outskirts of the city, who formerly purchased their supplies from’ the smail neighboring stores rather thau walk down town, are now quickly carried by the motors to the center of the city, where they have the advautages of fng their purchases from the of the largest retail establishments, comiug of tho electric motor, accordin has rendered tue suburban store a thing of the past, especially those lying midway be- tween the ceuter of the city and the extreme end of the motor line. No™ one will s10p to trade at a small store balt way down town when three or four winutes’ longer ride will land them av tho doors of the bize ail houses, This explaios, 10 @ very g de- groc, the number of small vacant store build- 1ngs scattered all over the city, but does not explain the reason for the geueral dullness in retail circles, With the centralization of business it would be only natural to_expe crease in tho business of the large centrally Jocate ! establishments, provided the people have continued to buy the same quantity of goous. A careful inquiry smong the retml merehants will disclose the fact that some of these cstablishments have gained, thut business with them 1s botter than before the advent of the mefor, but the gain made by the large establishments has vy no menns kept pace with the decrease of tbe smaller pluces, showiug that ihere nas been a deciged deercase in 1he voluwe of business. In othier woras, it is easy to be seen that the peopic of Omabaare neither buyiug so freely Lor, in many cases, @s expensive goods they were o few years ago, Even U centrally located stores, many of them, com- plain of dull times. Tn order to prove that the condition of th vetail trade in Omaha is as outlinea above e numbver of merchants have been interviewed, representing the different lines of business, as boots und shoes, dry gooas, cloth- ing, erocerics, ete. The merchants inter- viewed are those who are supposed 1o bo doing as good business as any in their line and are proprictors of lurge und ceu- trally located stores. Lt will bo uoted that thoso firms thatspeak of a good trade men tion that they are getting it from the coun- try. This correspouds with the experienco of the jobbers who have enjoyed a splondid country trade, but not much from the city. Ketail Merchants Talk. Here s what some of tho leading retail merchunts of Omuha have 1o say regurding e condition of trade, Mr. S. Gamble, wanager of the Continen- tal Clothing compasy—We are having the best trade that we have expericnced s 1857, but Wo are getting it from Lhe surrc fng towns in Nebraska. Wel o farm, como in aud spend #50 or more ata time in gotting themselves tixed up for the fail and winter. Puroly local trade, that is trade that comes n Omaha people, is if any- thing dulier than ever. Omaha is 1ot pro- ducing anything for a city of its size. There are uot fuctorics enouwh.” Too many peoplo have depended on real estate and that is dull aod will vematn aull until wo have moro men and women a work in factories, As an examplo of how deficient we are . manu- facturing enterpiises, thero is probably clothing retailed in Omana to the vaiwe of $3,000,000 annually,and not ono dollar’s worth of it is made hero. All tuis money 1s sent Bway Lo eastern citie Mr. Levy, manager of the Nebraska Cloth- ing company—The retail trade so far this fall bus not be entirely satisfactory. In vol ume it has amounted to about the same as lust year, but we bad expected sowething more, Wo are hopeful und canuot see any yeason why business should ot increase from the surrounding country, but we do not expect ® very uctive business from Omaha, Why is it that the local Omaha trade is not betterd It might be hard to give all tho causes, but the main xeason is 1o bo feund in the that thero is not so much work for the people as there was t one time. ‘Ihe city has not been pushing the public improvements and factories are not being started. We notice a geod trade from South Omaba, When we speud money for advertisiug in the country we get good Felurns but we eaunot as’ wuch for the city. Omaha ought to have more peopis eus- loyed who would then have money to spand, We have got Lo geL wanufucturing hero the sawe as other cities are doing. [ do not be- liove much in teying to iuduca factories from the outside to “locate in Omaha, but if our Jocal capitalists would turn their attention to manufacturing they woula do themseiv, a0d the cily good. Men with muney inother cities are starting factorios every day and aro making them pay besides building up their cities, ‘T'here are many things that can be made in Omubs Lo sdvaniage, N. B, Falconer—The dry goods trade of the city is slow iu & general way, though in- dividuaily wo bave becn well satistied, 1 Jook uvoti the present quiot prevalling in re- il circles as duo to uatural causes, a sort of reaction after the boom. Thers is not enough -money in goneral cireulation ana the only people who have money are tho workers. Proporty owners nave their money tied up und are fol to be very sparing in their oxpenditures. Every large store is forced 1o do 8 considerable credit business sud collections are slow. 5 . Morse of the Morse Dry (ioods com- puny—Siuce September 1, or, more correctly speuking, siuce the advont of cooler weather there bus been a decided awakening of the retuil trade. What are commonly ealled the middle classes especinlly have been buying pore freely than was the case a fow weoks k0. ‘Tols trade comes largely from the country sud people have bsen in hero from towns as far west as Chadron uud have bougnt large bills of goods, 1'he purely local business, that is the trade that comes from the veopieof Omaha,is not sctive. The people of Omaha must be loaded up with reul osf for they do uot appear te have MUy woney, A great mapy of those whodo have money spend It 1o other cilies than Owmahs, Hayden Bros. were now inclined to talk wery freely ou the subject but it could be easily gathered from their covversation that Ahoy did vol take & very cueerful view of the otall trade of the city. Thoy expressea l themseives as fully cognizant of the fact that somothing must be done 1o introduco now in- dustries and give employment to more peo- ple vefore the general local trade of the eity will bo active. ‘Chey were very liveral in their praise of Tue Bee for what it has done the past year in favor of home industries. Drexel & Rosenzweig --Trade in boots and shoes during the past summer hfis been only moderate, though we look for something better this fall. People have been buying sparingly for some time and will be com- pelled to commanco purchasing shoes soon. One reason why trade bas been light 1s to be fouad in tho fact that laboring men have been out of work and consequently out of money. I'kis makes more differenco to the retail business than people outside of tho trade 1magine. Laboring men aro among the best of customers. Take bricklayers, plasterers and others who earn gooJ Wagos and they buy the best of everythinz, When work Is scarce, as it _has beon, we natico a falling off in the quality of business. Peoplo who have been buying shoes costing 00 to $5.00 now ask for something worth 5 to §1.00. There appears to bo moro work in tie city this fall than during the summer, caused by an inerease in tbhe num- ber of buildings undergoing construction and by the c encement of public improve- ments, This onght to causo some iacrease in tho retail trade, In our business an enrly and cold fall would be advantugeous, Wet weather is not_much help. as it causes a de- mand princivally for rubber goods on which thero is little profit, ladies’ rubbers, for ex- ample, bewg bouvhi at 24 cents and sold at 25 conts. Norris & Wilcox—There is some complaint regarding the retail trade, but we do not know s dealers always havo just causo. Wo have just been taking stock, and find that wo have tot cono back any. ‘The fall trade is opening favorabiy, and when tho weather is nice thero is a fair movement of goods. Wu look for trade to be as good *his fall ns last. People are buying more economically than they did a fow vears ago. Ladies and gen- tlemen, five or six yoars ugo thought noth- 1ng of baviny & for'a pair of shoos, whilo at the presont timo §5 is about the standard prico for the botter class of trade. How- ever, competition among both manufucturers and retailers has lowered the price some- what, and £ wi | buy & much prettier shoo now than 1t would at that timne. Wm. Ilewing, grocer — Trade kept up well in July and August, thouzh it is nlways qnieter then, as our customors are many of them perambulators who do not keep house during the ot weather. We expect a fine > from now until after the lolidays, and no reason why oar expeetations should not be veritied. Our trade, however, is of a Kind that wouid not be affécted by tha lack of building euterprises, in tho city. As u general thing tho grocery trade of tho eity is in bad shape, as is evidenced by the num- ber of failures fn that line during the past yoar or more, A great many ha had an Jdea that tb a it of money in this businass 1 not get 1t out of their neads until they lad tried it for themselves. Thoso withoul capital and experience have been gotting out of the business pretty rapidly for some timo back and, 1 believe, the grocery busiess 13 getting down to a botter basis. Mr. Flaming also calied attention to the number of vacant store build- fngs in the city, which he ascribed as being due to the process of cen- tralizavion of trado mentioned in_the first part of this article, as well as to the lack of employment for laboring men who formerly supported the small retail establishmonts cupying those stores. The Cause of Dull Trade. Business men are almost unanimously agreed that the cause for the decrease in tho voluwe of retail trade, when sifted to tho bottom, is due to a lack of employmeut for tho people. There are not enough wveople stenaily omployed in Omaha to keep tne wheels of trade moving freely, There ave too many idle men in the city for whom no work is provided. Thoy are without work 14 without monoy, and trade, under thoso conditions, could aot_be otherwise than dull, With thede facts well understood, it is easy to be seen that the only remedy lies in sup- plyin work and the whole subject s thien reducea to the question, “How create work " Business men say that manufacturing must be introduced ioto the city and work furnished for additional people. ~ To induce manufacturers ta come hers from other lo- calities is a dificult matter as it usually re- quires & bonus to bring them and they are upt to close down or leave aftor the bonus runs out. The ouly sure way, business men declare, is for the people of ihe city them selves to turn their attention to manufactur- ing. The capitaiists of other cities are building factories and emplo:ing pacple and besides making a good profit on their invest- wents they ure benefitting their cities, The great crouble in Omaha is that tho men who bave money have neen satisfied with beine mere mouey loaners or real estate owners instead of turning tneir wealth intoe channels whero it would do seme good. Last winter a strong effort was mado by Tur Ber: to develop the masufacturiog in dusiries of the elly by creating a demand for the goods produced by the local factorics. Manufacturers sav th t several bundred more people are emploved as a result of th put forth by Tug Be in fuvor of patronage, Dusiness men aiso say that a unitea effort t be made the coming fall and winter, o incrense tho size of the factories in oxistence but 1o introauce new of manufactures not yet reprosented in the city Other cities are doing this, and ulmost any dmily paper that wo may pick up wiil be found to contain notices of new enterprisos are being set on foot by the wide wwake capitalists of otuer cities, No one asks that money be donated for tha public @ood, but only that the 1dlo money of the city be invested where it will do some good. Citizens even of modorate means can organize stock compan es aud conduct a large and successful busines: without any one in- dividual being obliged o invest any great sum of money. Smid a prominent business man: “Every one of us ought from this time on to keep our eyes open and our thinking caps on, and whenever we learn of auything that can bo mude to advantage 1n Owmaha make that fact known and if possible got local capitahsts interested. We ought also, as business moea, to do everything we can to encourage %1 manufactirers already established in the city by pushing the saie of their goods.” Mothers will ind Mrs. Winslow’s Sooth- 1ng Syrup the best remedy for theirchildren ceuts a bottle, WASHINGT D G.
