Omaha needs more factorles, more business houses, more opportunities for the employ- ment of workingmen, who in turn will create a demand for the commodities offered for sale on our markets. Every one concedes this. The necessity not only of keeping the people now residing here steadily at work carning their own livings, but also of offer- ing openings to others who may be induced to come here and to make their homes in Omaha must be apparent on a moment's re- flection. The city must go forward. It can only go forward with a constantly increasing population. An increasing population means a call for more new houses. It means a arger field for retail stores of every descrip- tion. It means additiona wealth for the community and additional strength to the government. It means an expansion of trade and industry in every direction. But the first condition of an increasing popula- tion is an increased employment of working- men and this can be secured only through new manufacturing enterprises. It is all very well to talk cheap power drawing industries here without any other inducement. Cheap power will cer- tainly be a powerful inducement for this purpose and that alone justifies the en- couragement of the Platte canal scheme. But Rome was not built in a day and neither will the Platte canal be built In a year. 1t is doubtful can be built at all until enabling legislation s obtained. The most favorable calculation would not put the power plant in operation short of two years hence.

The revelations made in The Bee last January of the cost of heating buildings the expense was charged against the state showed that the coal bills being cleverly manipulated in the interest of contractors. The figures which then presented for the last quarter of the year 1892 and the first quarter of the year 1893. In brief, they showed that not only were extravagant prices being paid for coal for these state institutions, but also that extravagant amounts of coal were being charged up to the state. Some of the insti- tutions were, according to their own records, onsuming enough coal to heat all olitdoors in the immediate locality. A comparison of the ses for heating the large buildings in Omaha with those for heating the state institutions disclosed the fact that the latter were in some instances twice what they might reasonably have been expectad to be. The Dee call attention coal where were we were expen office, has heretofore had to the fact that since its ex- posure of the extravagance of the state bills one or two of the worst offend- ing institutions had contracted the num- ber of tons of coal This by itselt ought to result in some little saving to the people. Now we find that the contracts just awarded by the State Board of Pur- chase and Supplies are generally much lower the that prevailed during the period referred to. The lowest price then paid was $2.74 per ton; the lowest price for the next ensuing quarter will be $2.29. The Hospital for the Insane at Lincoln was paying $3.20 per ton and the Home for the Friendless in the same city Insisted on coal costing $5.05 per ton, while now the new contractor is to supply coal at the first named place at $2.20. The Asylnm for the Incurable Insane at Hastings was using coal costing $3.38 per ton. The new con- tract demands only $275. The Home for Veteran Soldiers and Sailors at, Grand Island burned coal at $3.20 per ton and is to get it during the next quarter for $2.75. At the Industrial School at Geneva alone, far as the published figures go, Is there an increase In price from $3.45 per ton to $3.75 per ton. There are sald to have been more bidders this time than before, some of whom were doubtless drawn the fleld by the disclosures made in The Bee. There is no reason why the state should pay more for heating the public institu- tions than private and public corporations pay for the same service. Of course every- thing does not depend on the contract price. There can be an extravagant of low-priced coal as well as of high-priced coal. Economy in the contracts must be fol- lowed up with economy in the consump- tion of coal. There Is room for a consid- erable saving In both these ways. oceasion 1o coal used. than prices 50 ever into use The people of Nebraska will have to make up their minds to one thing.

It enables the state treasurer to constantly keep in his sums of amounting at some periods to nearly §2,000, 000, upon which the state derives no inter- est.
