The characteristics of the village are, one, sometimes two, and rarely three railway stations, the merchants, who 1l the products of distant seotfons and foregn nds, the blacksmith, - tha earpenter, t doctor, etc.; also, the grain merchant, the live stock and other dealers, who buy the surplus products of the producers of the adjacent tertitory. The population of the village ranges from a few hundred to a few thousand, dependirs upon the size and territory. The trade g all to justify the use of large capital, hence their merchants and dealers are men of comparatively small capital. These conditions render it necessary for the selling merchant to Bu{ in small quan- Uties, dnd the buying merchants, the grain, nve stock dealers, ete., to makeé frequent shipments, which In turn produce the economic necessity of market towns. Characteristics of the Market Town. The market town has all the character- istics of the village. All of the various petty trades of the village, both in buyin and selling, are carried on in the marke town, but In addition the market town has characteristics which the village does not possess and which it may never hope to posress, The charadteristics 0f the market town hich distinguish it from the village are the jobbing merchants who buy the prod- ucts of other sections are of other lands in larger quantities and sell them to the village merchants, and the n and live stoc! and other buyers with sufficlent capital to buy the grain and live stock and other n%:m;. rom the village deslers. & .

And exneriéence teaches that the larger market towns get, the faster and easier they grow. The Market Town a Necessity. The market town is not an accidental pro~ | duetlon.” "The history of the settlements | of thig country shows that the first mar- ket towns w;ra located on the Atlantie coast—New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Buitimore. etc. As ‘settlements advaiced westwardly, new.matket towns, like Chi- cago, Clncin 8 exlstence, ang sull ‘further to ¢ market towns—Minneapolls, Omaha, Kansas City and 8 Deen eitablished, mot by an economic necessity for cenductin exchanges of a greal country, cover ! vast area, Inhabited by more than 80,000,000 of Industtious people, The fact that the city of Omaha has established itself as a market town, and has mointained that position for more than & quarter of a century, is conclusive evi- dence that It has been called into existence by that nutural law of ecunomic necessity which will enable it to forever maintain its position. Omaha Found the m Agriculture. Now, T have said that thers is practicall no Himit (o he mportance which & MATKEt town may attain, but as the jobbing trade is the distinguishing charactoristic of the market town, and as the volume of the job- bing trade 18 measured by the productive- ness of the tributary eountry, Jt is | portant to consider such present and ture productiveness. The principal products of the tributary territory at pre nt are, and, so far as we know, musi always bs, the products of the farm. 'The products of g single farm are 80 Insignificant, compaed with the products of the unit of §ome other in- dustries, that it sometimes gives rise to feelings akin to contempt for the Insignifi- cance of agricultural pursults. A _short time since 1 had the pleasure of \-luun' the iron ranges of Minnesotu. The whole traln carrylng our party was literally backed Into one of the great iron mines. In that single mine were seven other rallway trains and seven huge steam shovels, each making two dips per minte. and at each dip loading thrée tohs of iron ore (nto those seven traing of cars. The magnitude of the production of a single mine makes the production of a single farm u?ur indeed (nsignificant. u - t the rit; market town relates. not to Vce ro. duction of 4 sing) , or a single mine, but to the aggresate production within it terrian rom this point of view. T ascertained the anpual preduction of il the min: the largest iron-producting territory | nited Btates, and to my astonishment ‘ found t the value of the entire annual production of all the iron mines in Min- | nesota is less than the value of the an- pual preduct of the ns, _the common |barnyard fowl, of the magnificent agri- cultural state of lows. | If we compare the aggragate, by the standard of the number of QMDIO&D. the | consus of 1900 shows that about 6.000 were emr yed In the Minnesota mines, whi more. than . 186000 ~were em- ployed on the farmi ot mbn-u tianat add that less than erod ‘wers employed in all the coal. iron. silves and all of mines of Um white molfe than 10,400,000 w in_agriculture.

This s agriculture, which is the basis of the present and future prosperity of Omaha, and of the whole United States. The vast territory whose trade is natu. rally tributary to the city, when the arld portions of the far west are irrigated, is capable of producing unknown billions of value annually, and of sustaining a papus lation of so many millions that, if stated in fAigures, without comparison, the statement would be regarded as fantastic bombast. Npvertheless, it is a fact that the littie k of an island In the Atlantic ocean, orto Rico, which is one of the trophies of the, Spanish war, sustains a popula- tion of 858,243, The area of the state of Nebraska is Mis times the area of Porto Rico, there fore, It as densely populated as the isiand of Porto Rico, Nebraska -vould have & population of 30,3%,84, equal to more tham one-quarter of the eritire present popula- tion of the whole of the United States. If populated as densely as England, whieh, however, procures from other lands a large share of Its sustenance, with the profits of manufacturing and forelgn commerce, Nes braska would have a population of more than 30,000,000, But Porto Rico has no manufacturing or forelgn commerce. Its people, in the main, 1ive upon the products of their own lazy and rude agriculture, Hence, while it {s not probable that the territory tribu- tarv to Omaha will have & density of popu- lation equal to Porto Rico, the flgures are interesting as showing the wonderful abil- ity of the soll to support population. an as indicating the astonishing possibilities _Soil Inexhaustible, There is another difference. Every ton of ore which is taken from the mines re- duces the quantity which can be mined in the future. But it Is not so with farms. Some years ago 1 crossed Lake Winne- pesaukee. in New Hampshire. As I safled along 1 noticed that its beautiful shores had been disfigured by the recent erection of houses for the storage of ice. hrewd old Yankee who was aboard remarked that it was the cutest way of producing wealth imaginable. Last winter ice worth thou- sands of dollars was n from this lake, and now there is just as much water as there was before, 1 just #0 with the farms. After they h yielded their nual billlons of value, there are just as many billlons left as there wore before. And after they have rewarded the industry of generations fol- lowing generations, there will be sufficient left to reward the generations which shall follow, until time shall be no more. This is the sure foundation of the present and future prosperity of the jobbing trade nlfl the market town of Omaha. It is ever- astin Prospects of the Immediate Future. Let us consider_the prospects of the im- mediate future. In 153 there was a great depression in business affairs, which was followed by & great migration of population to the new lands of the then west, Again in 1856 and 1873 there were similar business depressions, followed by the same pho- fopens of migration of producers to new e The migration which commenced In 1878, and culminated four years later, cnnn.eé the Dakotas, and the large areas west of the Missourl river, into cultivated and roductive farms, which, during the fol- | jowing seven years, 1883 to 1800, by its re- flex influence, tripled the population and trade of the inarket towns. A similar raigration has followed ths panic years of 1883-5, commencing in 169, which ‘'has far exceeded any previous mi- gration. « 1f history repeats itself, the migration to the ferritory west of Omaha is a fact Dl‘ngnlnt with business. The newcomers are intelligent producers, possessing capital and capacity, from the more eastérn states. They are openin mines and farms and buliding homes a mills. It takes timeé to make suoh ente rises productive, but the work of prepara- flon alone has more than doubied thé its market [ t & price, the digestive measured, The teanstel books of the large corpora- tlons prove that digestion ot smali lots his afready commenoed Dy the unknown publie, who are the final digesters.

The imprassion is that the ity lacks Bomething of fulfilling all the requirements of a market town. Must Buy Products of Our Territory, It seems to me a self-evident proposition that a market town which aspires to sell & producing community all of its supplies must at the same time be prepared to buy all of ite products, And 1 think experlence has proven that wherever the producer sells 'his products there he will buy at least & portion of his eupplies, A market town istiog of .only sellers, with no buyers, is only haif-formed. I am convinced that the pre-eminence which the unrivaled city of Chicago has attained s & market town is due to the fact that every concelvable product, in every coricelvable quantity, finds a buyér in Chicago. Grain, fruits, 'vegetables, Iivi stock, everything goes. And I verlly be fev that ‘It some idiot should ship carloads or train loads of black cate, some Chicago dealer would buy them, and some Chicago bank ‘would loan the money to “carry'’ them, and both would realize a profit. All' hall, to peeriess and incomparable Chicago! " In all "the world no market town lfke it! Nedd of an Omala Grain Market. The principal surplus products of this territory are live stock and grain, in about quai propertions. hie city has a market for live stock good the best. Every day market prices of live stock in Omaha are sent out from Omaba by telegraph published In the newspapers. aunmllnnl of the Omal market. lay the producer are Informed of and the market and continuous that the country el assured of a quick market at market prices every day in the year. Thus Omaha has come to be regarded by both the producers and the dealers as thelr live stock market But it is not so» with grain. As I under- starid . it there is absolutely no Omah: market for grain—no Omaha grain me: chants, no Omaha quotations; and, prac tically, 'grain has no value whatéver in Omaha. The couhtry dealerk and producers of graln are therefors compelled to look to, and regard, other market towns as their market towns for grain, end in this respect Omaha falls short of being'a full market town, ;. ‘The market town in the northwest, Min- neapolig-St. Paul, has .a population ap- proximating 400000. It has both a live stock and A grain_market. The market town in the southwest, Kansas City-St. Josepn, hae o population approximating 260, It has both a live stock and grain market. “Without ~the _grain market, neither of these rival market towns could h‘T\n uchlevo‘d :l’t:lurmprmnt e|"mfmrfanf0.' amount of uced s afple to sustify an Important Ofaha grain marker, and there are economic reasons for such 1??“0&" than those which have been stated. v R All the grain that Jg prouced cannot be eaten in !m!:mh. mfr 4 few months. The | roducers cannot carry ft " untll it s emanded for ultimate consumption. Hence, there arises the necessity for the grain merchant, with his elevaiors, to buy and store, or, ag It is technically called, “carry” in. 'And the most economical, and therefore the most profitable, place 1o carry grain'.is at the market town nearest the place of production. T once approached the late Mr. Peavey of' Minneapolls, who ‘was perhaps the largest grain carrier in the: world, with a gropositlon ta. bulld carrylng elovators on New York harbor. a location which promised the cheapest money for carrving purposes.
