Commissioners Discuss the Removal of Courts and Other Changes, Yesterday afternoon the county commis- sioners und the district judges got together in the court house and inspected the prem- ises pretty thoroughly. The judges en- lightened the members of the county board upon what they decmed necessary in the changes it is proposed to make. They dis cussed the removal of one of the courts from Tus Bee building, which will occupy the present quarters of the clerk and county board in the court house, those branches of the county government going down stairs, ‘The talk was purely informal and resulted ouly ina better general understanding re- garding the matter, Considerable time was consumed in open- ing bids for supplics for the county, The bids were all referred to !h-‘) per commit- tees. Bids were received for furnishing lum- ber, brick, flour and groceries, and doing culyert work 1t was expected that the bids for doing the advertising and printing for the county would be received yesterday, but that was an error. Those bids will tot be opened until the next session of the board, Judge Eller's request for wore room for the county court was favorably reported upon by the committee on court house and Jail. When it came to the adopton of the report Mr. Stenberg arose to explain why he could not vote aye, and in hisopinion the matter should be left to the wcoming board, Judge Eller was permitted to0say a few | holiday worda tn behalf of tHa'fbquest for the room now used by the commiioners as an office. Heo said 1t was s&bdolutely nocessary to have increased agepmmodations, as the business of the county court is accumulating o0 rapidly that it is fthossible to transact the business without it The judee secured the room, Mr. Stonberg being theonly mem ber voting in the negative, Licenses to sell liquot were granted to O Koch, Douglas precitit; H.

Dun & Co.,in his final weekly re- | view of the trade for 18 “The year 1809 closes with tho jobbing trades of Omaha in the best condition of its | history, Searcely a house can be mentioned | which hias not enjoyed exceptional prosper- ity sinco the first of June. Tho discourage- ments of early spring have almost been for- gotten in its marvelous growth of the later months of the year “If there has over been any doubt in tho | minds of wholesale dealers s to the future jobbing trade of the €ity it has long since been dispelled. We enter upon 1504 with the | brightest promise fora very large increaso over this red letter year. I shall be very much disappointed if the next twelve months do not show a most remarkable improvement over the last twelve. The conditions | throughout the territory tributary to Omaha was never so favorable. Tho faviners of Ne- braska are in better financial condition thun ever before in the history of the state. he trade conditions throughout the country have been greatly improved, and confidence s felt from the Atlantic to' the Pacific in the year upon which we are about to enter. Al by the ady the reputation which Omaha | has achieved as a jobbing center is drawing new houses to the field. Some of the old establishments will greatly enluge theiv facilities and brancii out into new tervitory. | Severalnew houses are negotiating for a place in this field. The number of failures and the proportion of assets show that ro- lers everywhere are in better shape to meet their obligations than usual. The xact figures which are quoted below will be of interest to all commarcial readers. “During the week just past most of the ' traveling men have been at home, but mail orders in all the houses have been exc tionally large, and _dealars who have men in the field soliciting spring trade, say the orders avelargerand more uumerous than at this time a year ago. ““The retail dealers of the city ave in bet- ter spirits than for six months past., The holiday trade was so large that many who were discouraged have taken new heart, and o number of the small houses which feared the approach of the new year will tided over safely by their sules. One of the smaller leading dry goods houses of the city sold £22,000 worth of goods for ¢ash during the week preceding Christinas and for six weeks past the sales of this house have not fallen below £2,000 a day. Another house with a heav ock reports a single day's cash be er sales at $,000. 'he disastrous fire on which completely destroyed one large furni- | ture and carpet establishment and damaged | o large clothing house, is the only mis- fortune which has befallen trade during the | week. Tt isa further evidence of the confi- | dence which Omaha merchants have for the | future to learn that both these institutions will resume business at as early o day practicable. The retail clothing trade has been phenomenally large since cold weather etin, and one of the largest houses in this line proposes to increase its capacity by 50 per cent soon after the first of the year. “The loss which the insarance companies sustained by this fire suggests the advisi- bility of an organized insurance patrol, such as other large cities have. The: ould be sustained by pro rata contributions of insur- ance companies, and work under the imme- ction of the fire department of the The salvage in fires like that which occurred Tue v night would be sufficient to pay the expenses of such a corps for a long time. ‘“The year at South Omaha closes with the volume of trade at that important center ahead of expectations and prices have ruled remarkably high through the greater part of the year of 182, ““The banks of the city close the y funds in excess of demand. Banking history in Omaha has never known a year like this.
