Building Trade Conference Aiki
that Only Union Labor Be.
- Employed
EMTLOYERS EX FUSE DEMANDS
A eontrorersy la in process be
tween union bricklayers and other
members of the building trades In
Omaha and employers of labor.
The union bricklayer want 7S
rents an honr beginning with May 1,
while the contractors want to !
them 75 cents beginning July 1. They
are getting 70 cents an hour now.
Allle tiM Conffrnrf.
Thre is also anothsr issue. Five trsde
l.nlons in thn city have orgsntsed the
"Alllsd Bullrtlna Tre1rs' conference."
They sre the brick Is yers, r'sstsrers, atone
cutters, eerpentrfs and holstlne- and port
able engineers. Trier demand that con
tractors employ only union labor In thssa
rive crafts.
In a letter'slgnrrl by David Cotitts, sec
retary of 'the conference, the Builders'
exchsnre and tbe Real Estate exchange
have been notified of this ruling and have
been esked to take cognisance of It to
save themselves Inconvenience and em
barrassment. The Omaha Real Ertate exchange a
week ago laid the matter on the table.
The Builders' exchange still has this
letter on file. , ,
t
llblsttna r:ntl'" I
Builders and contractors object to the
demand that union lit-latln engineers
must be employed. They maintain that
almost anyone with a few hours of prac
tice can run a hoisting engine on a build
ing Job. and that there ts no occasion for
clssslfying this Job as highly skilled
labor to be graded on a union scale. The
scale tbe conference Is attempting to fix
for these hoisting engineers Is M cents an
hour,
fit the Builders' exchange has asked
the allied conference to drop this request
With this condition they have offered
to give the bricklayers 16 cents an hour
tglntring with July 1. The bricklayers
Jiave not yet accepted the proposition.
If they do not accept It and the build
era do not agree to their -terms of the 75
cents an hour unconditionally, s strike
Is said to be imminent.

Major Robert B. Motcm. besd of the

guest of Rev. W. T. Oeborn. pastor of ft.
Johns African Methodist church, and Is

bert William, rector of the Church of
St. Philip the Deacon.
Major Moton has been with the Hamp
ton echoed twenty-five years, hsvlng
graduated there. This Is his first visit
to Omaha' anrt he expressed himself as
delighted with the city and this part of
the west - Belative to the school at
Hampton, Major Mnjon said:
"We have in attendance of 1.400 boys
and girls, htit our facilities are alfo.
gether too limited to take care of those
who are derirous of attending. Last
yesr. for instance, we hsrt l sppllcants
whom we could not take. It seems sad
to think of the large number of colored
boys and girls who are seeking higher
education and then realise that the op
portunity cannot be afforded that they
fit themsclvee to go out and compete
with their more fortunate brothers and
si sters.
Over Tboasaad PIU.
"Of the children we have tflO In the
boarding and 40 In the primary school.
In the school we teach the agriculture
and the useful trades, and as si result
there Is always a good demand for our
graduates. Many of them after gradua
tion buy farms anj engage an business
for themselves, whle others are employed
in demonstration work. All through ths
sgrf cultural sections, particularly In the
south, you will find our boys' giving in
structions snd teaching the farmers the
modern methods of carrying on tho fti'ms.
"Our course up to the time of com
mencing to teach the trades and the
science of farming Is very similar to
that of the grade school. ,. After that It
la academic work to a very large de
gree, ;
"In the girls' department we teach the
regular grade work, implementing this
with a knowledge of domestic, economy
and teaching. Everywhere through the
south our girl graduates are sought as
school teachers and we could plana doifhls
the number If we had them for the
places. . .
"In the school, which at one time years
sgo wss exclusively a school for Indians,
we still have some forty Indians, some
of thent coming from the reservations of
lie west. ' We employ 00 teachers and
feel that we are doing a good work."

SURPRISE TO SELF

Sayi He Ran Even Stronger Than
He Expected To Booit for
Auditorium , '
GOSSIP OF THE HANDICAP
"I ran stronger Tuesday than I
believed I would. I take this vote
of myself and associates as indicative
of what will happen' on May 4. I
am thankful to those who supported
me. It showg the people of Omaha
indorse my administration," declared
Mayor Dahlman, who also said he
Intended to make a campaign In
favor of buying the Auditorium.
The mayor's office was crowded
all morning with people who called
to congratulate him. The chief ex
ecutlvefVlll take a rest before enter
ing upon the campaign for re-elec
tion.
"I feel that my work along lines
of playgrounds and other park
feature won ' me many votes," de
clared Commissioner Hummel, who
ran next to the mayor in the primary
race.
V -
Flaare Hew It Happened.
Ths politicians and others are busy to
day figuring out how It all happened.
The vote shows thst the major was en
dorsed In nearly every ward. 7 he Second
ward gave the mayor nearly 1,(W votes,
which waa the strongest expression of
the wsrd for the chief executive of the
city. Ryder wss severely cut In the
Twelfth, his own ward. Simon ran two
to one against Zlmman In tlis Third
ward.
In ths Sixth' Butler wss cut. particu
larly In the First precinct. M. U Wilson
and dene Howard, colored Janitors In the
city halt, were against Butler In this
precinct until they were called off at
p. m. by an Influential colored rolltlclen.
The fight between Zlmman and Simon
In the KIghth ward, thickly populated by
Jews, wss very keen, Zlmman carrying
this ward by a strong Wd over Kimon.
One of the features of the primary Is
the expression of many who are surprised
at the comparative weak showing msde
by IM Howell. There were many who
felt aure he would be within the first
group of fourteen.

The American men snd women must
guard constantly -against Kidney trouble,
because we eat too much and all our food
Is rich. Our blood Is filled with urks
acid which the kidneys strive to filter
out, they weaken from ovrwork, become
sluggish; the elimlnatlve ussues clog and
the result is kidney trouble, bladder
weakness and a general decline In health.
When your kidneys feel like lumps of
lead; . your bsck hurts or the urine Is
cloudy, full of sediment or you are
obliged to seek relief two or three times
during the night; If you suffer with sick
headache "or dlxsy. nervous spells, acid
stomach, or you have rheumatism when
the weather Is bad, get from your phar
macist about four eunees of Jad Salts;
take a tableepoonful In a glass of water
before breakfast tor a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts la made from the acid of grapes and
lemon Juice, combined with Uthla, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stlmutate clogged kidneys; to neutralise

disorder. ' r. .

"For over a year I had Inflammatory
rheumatism in Its worst form. The pains
were all over me. At times I would have
to go to bod and remain helpless for days
at a time. Nothing helped me until I
tried Akoc,' which I saw advertised so ex
tensively. I used both the external and
Internal preparations with the result that
lor a .month's time I felt a well as ever.
The Akos compound applied over Ithe
