A Few News Notes From Chapels in
News and Job Rooms
f
The Star secured the scavenger tax
notice, which is a nice little "take"
that will cover about fifteen pages of
solid nonpareil. As a result the Star
machines have been going day and
night, and the regulars have been call
ing for help. -
Phil Summerlad, for many years
bookkeeper at the Western Newspa
per Union, has resigned and is now
doing the act for a local transfer com
pany. It is reported that Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Turner will not return to
Lincoln.
Ollie Mickel is hitting the keys at
the Journal. i
Local job shops are figuring on the
new city directory. This is the job
that the Typographical Union queered
until its projectors came to the scratch
and offered to have it done in Lincoln.
It seems that all the "rat" printeries
are getting together, and they are
flocking to the neighborhood of the
Western Newspaper Union. The ro
dents will find a gang of almighty
good union men holding forth in the
"P. G." shop and maybe the aforesaid
rodents will learn something by the
force of the example. .
The Typographical Union is going
to make another campaign for the
label, and - unless the Allied Trades
Council gets busy something is going
to drop. The union is also Interested
id' injecting some' ginger Into the Cen
tral Labor Union. ,
a,. Fred Ihringer has a scheme. He
wants the local union to build a home
of its own, and like the infant in the
soap ad, "He won't be happy till be
gets it." A lot of his fellow craftsmen
would be happier.
. "What is Philadelphia' doing?"
"What is Chicago doing?" There are
questions that the printers are ask
ing every day. These two cities are
battlegrounds, and the Typbthete is
going to make a gallant stand.
The last issue of the. Typographical
Journal was a warm number. Editor
Bramwood can ginger up when he
wants to and he evidently wants to.
It is rumored that President Green
ley is preparing a set of rules that
will make "Reeds' Rules" and "Rob
erts' Rules of Order" look like has
beens. The enforcement of the rule to fine
all committees that fail to perform
the duties for which they were ap
pointed gives evidence of having the
intended, effect.

CENTRAL LABOR UNION
A Little Ginger Injected and Renewed
Interest Made Manifest
There was something doing at the
Central Labor Union last Tuesday
night, and the delegates who were not
there missed something. It all came
about after a' statement was made
that the Cenetral needed a dose of
ginger. Immediately the ginger was
administered and a red--hqLfaete' re
sulted. An outsider might have con
ceived the idea that; there was a war
on, but there waS not. Delegates
were merely scrapping in the inter
ests of unionism, and while it was a
warm scrap it was good natured and
intended for the best.
Delegate Coffey from the Tpyo
graphical Union declared that the
commitees didn't report. Immediate
ly a member of the organization com
mittee jumped up and told what the
committee had done.-
"Good for you," said Delegate Cof
fey. "When' reports-! of the commit
tee's were called for you said you had
no report. 1 Now you make a good one.
That's what I wantto see."
Delegate Castor 0f the Electrical
Workers ' declared that it was time
that committees performed their
work. '" , ' i
"Well, you are on the labor tem
ple committee," declared Delegate
Bush of the Leatherworkers. "Why
don't you report?" j
"I've reported -three different times
at three different meetings," retorted
Castor., '' . i .
"I move that it be the sense of this
body that we have no parade on Labor
Day," was a -motion made by Delegate
Hale of the Painters.

committee of three to ascertain what
should be done on Labor Day was
shelved by Delegate Hale's motion be
ing offered as a substitute. The sug
gestion that the state fair board
might, make an offer was not consid
ered, and if the state fair wants any
thing from organized labor as a whole
it will have to take a little more in
terests in the welfare of organized la
bor between state fairs.
The benefit performance at the Oli
ver was talked over, and it appeared
to be moving along in a most satis
factory manner. If the house is not
jammed to the doors it will be be
cause organized labor does not know
a good play, a good company and a
good object when they appear on the
scene.
After the meeting the delegates got
together formally and decided that it
was a good thing to get excited once
in a while.
CAPITAL AUXILIARY
Preparing for a Lawn Social as the
Feature for July
Capital Auxiliary No. 11 met in reg
ular session at Bohanon's hall on July
5, and after the regular order of bus
iness the newly elected officers were
installed, as follows :
President, Mrs. H. W. Smith.
Secretary, Mrs. Fred W. Mickel.
Treasurer, Mrs. J. G. Sayer.
Chaplain, Mrs. George H. Freeman.
Guide, Mrs. W. M. Maupin..
It has been decided by the commit
tee to bold the July social on the lawn
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. E.
Mickel, 1905 South Sixteenth, on the
evening of July 24. The lawn social
will be an enjoyable affair, and all
union printers and their wives are in
vited to attend. .
There are especial reasons why a
full attendance is desired at the regu
lar meeting on July 24, one of them
being the near approach of the inter
national convention at Toronto.'
A QUEER SITUATION
Chicago Grand. Jury Names Laborers
- and Shields Capitalists
The Chicago' grand jury which in
vestigated the labor troubles hat
made a , beautiful - exhibition of its
subserviency to corporate interests.
The moment it found any excuse for
accusing a labor leader of accepting
bribes it named him and made his
name public. A labor leader can not
accept bribes unless they are offered,
and if money has been paid to labor
leaders to corrupt them, some one cer
tainly furnished the money. If it is
possible to trace' the money to the
bribed, why is it not possible to trace
it back to its source? ; i - r
But the Chicago grand jury, while
naming and denouncing r the . labor
leaders accused of being false to their
trust, very j magnanimously refrains
from -giving -the names of the employ
ers who corrupted the leaders and
refers tor them as "men high in
financial tcircles."
The Wageworker 'Is opposed to pro
fanity, but there are occasions when
it certainly is justifiable. Believing
this to be one of the occasions it
most emphatically asserts:
Damn such infernal kow-towing' to
"men high in financial circles!"
If the names of the bribed are
paraded, "in God's name give us the
names of the bribers.. That Chicago
grand jury is evidently made up of a
lot of cheap lickspittles who are very
anxious jto do Just what . they ; were
ordered to by the , - "men , high in
financial circles," who engineered the
scheme.

Last winter President Shea of the
Chicago Teamsters asked the Illinois
legislature to enact a law to protect
labor unions from bribery of their
leaders by employers. The bill was
backed by every labor organization in
Chicago, but was smothered in "com
mittee. It would be interesting to
know what influences secured the
death of the bill. Mr. Shea, who had
the bill introduced, is now under in
dictment for accepting bribes, but up
to date, neither the employers who
gave any bribes that may have been
given nor any employer who secured
the killing of the bill, has been in
dicted. These are strange facts that
deserve consideration. -
