After ad Journment in February last tba first work of your executive officers was to bsve the consti tution and circulars Minted and forwarded to an leiHir organizations in me sisia inviting affiliation with the congreaa. Tbe result of the sama will be submitted to you In the sec retary'a report. In connection with tbi I will siata that when your o nicer wanted tbe printing done the Omaha Central Labor union kindly cams to our aid and donated the cougrea f-A. At no time would tbe fund of the congrea permit personal tnliwlon work in organization. Home correHpomience with the same end In view ha been carried on and the work of organization thereby aaalated. In stead of salting for more fund, however. I would suggest that a cbeaDer and oerhaoa aa effective method of miaaionary work could be carried on by the wider circulation of the labor pres. iseurasga is the end of the procesalon in thl reaped; two labor papers exhaust tbe list. There are over one hundred In the atate of Kanaas, and nearly balf that number In other states. I recommend that Instead of the proceeding la DamDhlet form he official record be print! from week to ween if necessary in tbe W estern Laborer and the Wkkkly Usiohist, and copies secured for all affiliated union. I alao recommend for your cona'deration the following: That all ex latins beneficial labor laws shall bp rlultly en iorcea mat eigut nours s liit.ll constitute a day 's labor; prohibition of child labor under 14 X'sra: dlacoutlnuance of the contraot. yatera n oublic work: abolition of contract dHhou labor; payment of wagvs weekly In (awful men s wages; e(iul pay for equal work for uum aexea; aunarr ltiHpecti'in of factories. dwellings and all conditions of labor: abolish ment of all conspiracy laws and all cliota nrlv- lleges; the government to issue ail currency or money without intervention of bunking cor poration; tbe abolition of all tenement home Industrie. ! further recommend that the conventions of the state uomrrasa be held an nuaiiy, ana mat electing your executive cosn ell no two shall be from the aaine cltv. In conclusion, I trust that the deliberation of your honorable body may be marked by aiucerivr. wiaaom, pawnee ana sympathy, and snay btve a wide and Wholesome influ ence. 1 welcome you to the second convention ui toe ioenrasKa state L.auor uongress, On motion of J ulius Meyer the regular order of business was suspended that the election of officers might take place, with this result: G. W. Willard, president C. E. Woodard", vice president, E. It. Overall, secretary. Julius Mayer, treasurer. J. M. Thompson, serueant-at-arms U. F. Anspacher, E. Elster, J. W. Vo gan, trustees. The officers were all duly obligated, after which a recess was taken until 7:30 p. m. Evening Session. Immediately upon reassembling the re port of committee on revision of consti tution was called for and Alfred Fawk ner, chairman, made the following re port: MWe, the committee, entrusted with the duty of remodelling the constitution of this State Labor Congress tbat It may breathe forth the spirit of the higher aims and aspirations of all classes of or gaslzed labor, do herewith resectfuily submit the following preamble and con stitution for your consideration:'' PREAMBLE. Organization of the common people be Iny necessary for th amelioration and final emancipation of labor through the enuring to esch Individual toller of th whole product of hi labor, therefor to execute this exact Justice between man and man, we have orgatlzed thl Stat Labor Congress. As th oppressive ills which now af flict th people hsv been legislated upon ns Dy representative or aggregated cap! tal and th employing class, we declare th true meant for th betterment of our condition to b to legislate away all legislated wrong by united action at th polls. To this end w call upon all Industrial organUttloaa of farm aad factory worker, all trade unions, farmer' alliance and Knight of Labor aseembUsa, and all thoughtful men and women who lot liberty better than eta privilege aad who la ta present uriual system of dtstrtbttUoa and rapl4 ravtatrtU la th hand of a few of th wtt cre ated ly all a farfl meeac to bonis right, w earnestly call upoa all sua to Jolt b la our rrujad fjr th enanrlpa- tins of th wrf slave, and th following prlacipUs: 1, As th land, which U lh siNrv of all wealth, and containing, as it doe, th raw materials with which and on which man most labor to live, ta the God given element to all men, as Is air and water, we denounce the monopolization of land by private ownership as tbe mother of ail other monopolies and a crime against maklnd by operating as a fatal bar to the exercise of our Inherent rights to equal opportunities for existence and the pursuit of happiness alleged to he guar anteed by tbe constitution of our beloved country. Therefore, we demand that personal use not ownership shall con stitute the only legal, as It Is the only moral right, to possession of land. Ibat as in the past our duly elect ed representatives In congress and other legislative halls have only repre sented the private interests of the rich employing class and capitalists, the time has come when when all denominations of organized labor unitedly demand an opportunity of making their own law and the direct guarding of their own Interests, we declare in favor of the system of legislation known as the "In mauve and referendum," and will work unceasingly towards the realization of this refoim. 8. We demand that a volume of money sufficient to the necessities of convenient exchange of the products of labor be Is sued directly to the people without the intervention of banks, bankers or corpor atlons, end that sich money shall be lawful tender for all debts both public and private. We believe that the making and issuance of of money 1 tbe exercise of tbe highest sovereignty of a free peo ple and to preserve this right we will ever strive. 4. We demand that the national gov ernmentishall acquire under the right of eminent domain and appropriate for the good of all the people all existing rail roads, telegraphs, and telephones: and shall further construct such new rail roads, and tbe extension of the telephonic service as the exigencies of tbe people require or the proper development of the country calls for. 6. We demand that all municipal com munities shall own and operate all water works, gas and electric light plants and streetcar transportation, and distribute uch service to the people at cost. We demand the abolition of all con- piracy laws and of class and special privileges. 7. We deem it of vital Importance to organized labor that the president and as long as the senate exists) senators of the United States shall be elected by tbe direct vote of the people. 8. Ve are unanimously In favor of a more equal and exact sytem of taxation whereby tUe humble mechanic struggling to build and maintain a modest home for himself and little ones shall not be mulcted of a greater proportionate sum tbat the idle millionaire owner of resi dential palaces of ostentatious luxury and splendor may escape his Just burden of taxation. 0. We call upon the law department of the state of Nebraska to rigidly enforce all laws, especially the eight-hour and the prohibition of child labor under the age of fourteen years. 10. We denounce the present contract system of public works and demand tbat the national, state, county and municipal governments shall directly supply ail forms of needful improvements by day's labor. 11. We demand that mechanics aad laborers shall have a first lien upon the product of their labor to the full extent of their wages, 12. We demand the enactment of laws providing for arbitration between em ployers and employed and to enforce the decision of the arbitrators. And the better to facilitate these re forms this congress shall unceasingly en courage tne formation of local and cen tral labor organizations In every city, town and county In the state. And fur ther will assist in establishing national and International labor organizations, and aid and encourage the labor press of our state, and as soon aspractlcable establish n organ of the State Congress.
