COOK WITH GAS
The Gas Range. That's the solution of the whole question. No waste of fuel. Touch a match and the heat is all there. Turn a valve and the con
sumption of fuel ceases. Xo coal and ashes to carry. No kindlings to split. No smoke. No dirt. Xo soot. A cool kitchen for the housewife. Gas
is far cheaper than coal. It is far more convenient. Two modern gas ranges are shown in this advertisement. One is amply large enough for the aver
age family. The other is amply large enough for the unusually large family, or for boarding houses and restaurants. One has elevated oven and broiler
and lower oven. The other has elevated oven and broiler. Both set above the floor a convenience housewives will be quick to appreciate.
The Average Gas Fuel Bill in Lincoln
Than $3
Less than $3.00 a month in cash not counting the saving of labor and health and comfort. A Gas Water Heater solves the hot water problem.
We'll be glad to show you our full line of Gas Ranges and Was Water Heaters. Open evenings.

AT DESHLER.
Queer Logic of a Pastor Who I Op
posed to the Unions. , , .. .
It will be some time before the big
broom factory at Deshler Is organized.
There are several ministers who are
stockholders, and Investigation reveals
the fact that these eminent gentlemen
are great believers In child labor. .One
ot them stated to a Wageworker rep-
, resentative that he thought the child
should begin work when seven or
eight years old, and kept at all the
time save three or four months school
ing each year until about fifteen or
. sixteen years old. "It teaches them
thrift and Industry," said the preach
er, "and It keeps them out of bad
company. '
That Is the philosophy of the money-grabber,
the hypocrite and the Phar
isee. He Is thinking more of the
profits from child labor than he Is
of the child's welfare; more of profits

than of childish rights; more of filthy
lucre than of the immortal soul.
Thousands of preachers just like him
defended slavery as a "divine insti
tution." A number of children are now em
ployed at the Deshler factorq. The
force is comparatively small at the
present time, but will be increased
soon. There is a chance to unionize
the plant in the not distant future.
A new foreman will soon take charge,
and several of the stockholders are
willing to aid the men in organizing.
The opposition comes from some min
isterial stockholders sad to say.
PREPARING FOR THE FOURTH.
Railroad fAen . Getting Ready for An
other Monster Picnic at Seward.
The railway orders in Lincoln are
already at work preparing for a great
Fourth of July Picnic at Seward this
year. Committees are hustling to get
the program in shape, and nothing will
be left undone that will tend to make
the affair a huge success. -
The picnic at Seward last year was
well attended, but the aim Is' to make
the celebration this year far better
than that of last year. A handsome
souvenir program will' be published.
FOOLING THE BOYS.
Country Lads Decoyed to Chicago to
Act as Strike Breakers.
We understand a. carload of men and
boys were gathered up along the B.
& M. as far. out as Alliance, and taken
to Chicago in the capacity, of strike
breakers-. The offer of transportation
and $4 per. day was quite a tempta
tion to a boy, and t. would ,.not be
proper to blame, him for going, but it
would seem, to 'be a. misguided mis
sion. The boySj.of. the. .country should
not be decoyed into fighting the bat
tles of capital against labor. York,
Neb., -Dentocrat.
Giving Away Streets.
The Burlington asks for a slice of
Q" street "on "S"eVenth""fbr the' purpose
of improving its passenger depot. The
Wageworker opposes, the gift as a
matter of principle. Lincoln needs a
new passenger station, but. not more
so than the Burlington. If the Bur
lington wants, financial assistance, 'let
us circulate a subscription , paper. If
it wants the street, let it pay for it.
This thing ' of giving away sitreets
must stop some time, and right now
is a good time to stop it before any
more are given away.
Barbers' Ball Team.
The barbers, avow, declare, insist,
asservate, maintain and reiterate that
they have the best base ball- team
within the ranks of unionism in the
city-'-and they are ready to back it
at any ond all rimes. The team is
ready to make dates with all comers.

WORDS OF WISDOM.
Ernest Howard Crosby Tells Men to
Join Their Craft Unions.
No wage earner is doing his. full
duty if he fails to identify his own in
terests with those of his fellow-workmen.
The obvious way to make com
mon cause with them is to join a
trade union, and thus secure a position
from which to strengthen organized
labor and influence it for the better.
Ernest Howard Crosby, President So
cial Reform Club, New York.
A SPLENDID SCHEME.
Carpenters Are Planning to Build a
Home for Consumptive Members.
At the Milwaukee convention of the
United Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners of America the matter of erect
ing a home for sick and disabled mem
bers was taken under consideration,
and an offer from, Boulder, Colo., was
considered. The convention decided
to leave the matter to the executive
board. Primarily the object is to es
tablish a sanitarium for- victims . of
consumption.
This is something that every trades
union should do. The printers estab
lished the precedent nearly fifteen
years ago, and now have at Colorado
Springs a home for disabled and in
digent members that is the pride of
every union printer' in the land.. The
carpenters are taking an active inter
est in the movement and with the
immense membership to furnish sup
port a magnificent home should be
provided for the unfortunate members
of the craft.
NEVER GIVES UP.
The True Blue Union Man. an Opti
mist Under All Conditions.
Occasional defeats in trade disputes
does not discourage the .dyed-in-the-wool,
true-blue union man; neither
does it indicate to him that the whole
labor movement is going' to pieces as
a consequence. We cannot recall a
time in the past twenty-five years but
what ..there has been some weak
kneed, half-baked union man, or a
group of them, who said that the trade
union movement is lost, proved in
sufficient, etc., and proposed that we
at once start, "something" to take its
place. Despite their groundless fears
and quaking heart, with their rotten
predictions, the trade union movement
has steadily increased in numbers,
strength and. usefulness. The .trade
union movement will continue to do in
the future what it has done in the
past grow despite all opposition.
Cigarmakers' Journal. '
STRIKE BREAKER FARLEY.
He is Merely a Symptom, and by no
Means a Disease. .
Not a few of our contemporaries in
the labor field are having conniptions
If not actually throwing fits ovee the
incomings and outgoings of Strike
Breaker Farley, a denizen of New York
when not actively engaged', in his
duties as field marshal of the Parry
ites or whomsoever may employ him.
The brethren should not rend their
linen, certainly not over Farley. Far
ley is a commodity, a commodity
which is only placed on the market
when there Is a demand for it.
What righteous Indignation there
may be swelling in the breasts of or
ganized labor when viewing the works
of Farley, Strike-breaker, would bet
ter be stored up to be unloosened in
a deluge of retribution for those who
evoke the assistance of this industrial
ulcer.
Modern materia medica hunts sypp
toms only that it may recognize and
treat a disease. Faiiey-Strlke-Breaker,
is a symptom, not a disease. Phila
delphia Trades Union News.
Demand the Union Label.
Unionists should always demand the
union label when purchasing. If your
merchant does not handle union label
goods of all kinds don't buy of him.

Labor Clarion.
FARMERS UNION.
Getting Wise, to the Fact .That Or
ganization Helps Them.
The third annual convention of the
Texas . Farmers' union, in convention
recently, at Houston, passed resolu
tions indorsing union labor and pledg
ing the support of the membership to
the labor . movement. . ..The .laboring
men of Houston presented a fraternal
address to the farmers, in which, on
behalf of the' 7,000 members of or
ganized labor in that city, the tillers
of the soil were welcomed. Several
of the leading labor men of that city
addressed the convention, as did also
a number of prominent men of Hous
ton from other walks in life. During
the course of the proceedings of the
convention resolutions were adopted
reciting that as the work of the city
labor unions has a tendency to in
crease consumption of the' products of
the farm the farmers' union will co
operate in the future with the trade
unions in their efforts. Vincennes,

CAPITAL. AUXILIARY.
Newsy Notes From a Live Organiza
tion. Devoted to Unionism.
Capital Auxiliary No. 11 to Lin
coln Typographical Union No. 209 held
its first meeting in its new meeting
place at Bohanan's hall, 209 South
Tenth street, Wednesday afternoon,
May 17.
As has already been stated the Aux
illiary is growing to such an extent
that the homes are too small, so
something had to be done. A special
meeting was therefore held at the
home of Mrs. Will M. Maupin to talk
the matter over. It "was then decided
at our last regular meeting to rent
the hall for a period of six months
and to hold our meetings on the first
and third Wednesday afternoons in
stead of Friday. .
The socials, in which the printers
are seeming to take more interest,
will be the first Wednesday evening
of each month. Another social was
held the same evening of the after
noon meeting in the hall and by the
many efforts of the committee and by
the large attendance of the printers
it was more of a success than any
previous social. 4
Mrs. Will Bustard resigned , her
office as guide with the intention of
leaving the city.
Mrs. C. Simmons, is also leaving.
At our last meeting the members
were presented with eight hour but
tons, the gift of the I, T. TT. secretary.
MRS. A. F. COMPTON. .

the average. Down with the labor
agitators and disturbers who demand
that the carriage workers ought to
have at least $7 a week! 'Rah for

poor opinion of the knowledge of the
man who first said that "a new broom

If politics is a "dirty business" it Is
not because a majority Of the people

The .true reformer never worries
about results. The old colored man
betrayed the true faith when he said.:

the work; gettin' through the wall is
the Lord's part."
