San Francisco Printers ' Can See a Great Victory Drawing Near. We congratulate the printing trades unions of this city upon the fact that their ght for fair play and the eight hour day is already won. Of the twenty-six offices that tried to return to the nine-hour day, not one has been able to secure work men, although they have extensively advertised "good positions at high wages." -r At the end of the first week of the lock-out one of these twenty-six of fices announced its return to the eight-hour day, and gave as its rea son therefor, "self-preservation." That the other twenty-live will soon fol low its example, there can be no doubt, because none of the glitter ing promises of the Citizens' Alliance and the "walking delegate" of the Na tional Typothetae have been ful filled. With two or three exceptions, the employers who broke faith with the unions and abrogated an agreement proposed "by themselves, were de ceived by misrepresentations into do ing what they did, and when they are thoroughly convinced of that fact they will ask their locked-out men to return to work. The sooner they do so the better it will be for them selves, for their trade is drifting in to the eight-hour offices, where it will remain unless they "resume business" wmcn iney can not ao Dy tnis un just warfare against men who were their allies and have tried to be their friends. Never before has public sentiment or the press been so unanimous in any cause as in this of the locked out printers. The reason is that their cause is so palpably righteous that there is no room for any difference of opinion. San Francisco Star. be announced that .the contract- is back with the Journal.

It is a most wholesome and truthful recital of facts from start to finish, free from falsehood and hypocrisy, and shows Mr. Maupin not only a true patriot to his country, but : i unselfish and earnest wisher for the betterment of struggling human ity. The address is rich and original from beginning to end, and it will do you good to read it. Do not overlook it in our next issue. Donham 's Do ings, Downing, Wis. " ; , , THE PRINTERS. THINK OF YOUR MOTHER. A Street Car Incident That Is Repeat ed Every Day in Lincoln. x ne wageworiter 8 editor was on a University Place car the other even ing and noted an incident that de serves some mention.. The car was not crowded, but every seat was full, most of the passengers being young men and women. An old woman boarded the car at Fourteenth street, and not a young man offered her his seat. She : was allowed to stand up and balance herself as best she could against the seats. ' At Sixteenth a young woman handsomely dressed boarded the car, and before she was well inside the door two young men jumped up and offered her their seats with smiling bows and polite lifting of their hats. " And the young lady, overlooking the old lady who was standing, dropped into one of the va cant seats. The other young man im mediately plumped down into his seat again. Young man, suppose that old ladjr were your mother. Did you ever stop to think of her? And if you ever did, did you have the littleness to sit still and let an old lady "stand in the street car? The young woman mentioned above missed a golden op portunity to teacn tne young men a valuable lesson when she failed to thank them for their offer and give the old lady the proffered seat. THE WOODMAN CONTRACT. Lincoln Threatened With the Loss of a Great Newspaper Job. It is announced that after the Aug ust issue of the Modern Woodman that newspaper contract will be transferred from the Journal to an Indianapolis newspaper concern. . If this is true it will be a severe loss not only to printing circles but. to business circles generally. , . But The Wageworker refuses to consider the matter settled. Once or twice before since the' Journal took the contract, the work has been let to other parties and they had to throw up the job. The work, of printing and mailing 850,000 16-page papers a month is something that not every plant can successfully undertake. But the Journal plant does it easily, and we opine that in a short time it will Some News 1 Notes About the Boys Who Make" the Printed Page. J. E.

Johnnie Moore says it Is worth hav ing a siege of typhoid fever in order to be able to enjoy the luxury of an unbridled appetite for a month or two. He says the only drawback is that if he works long enough to earn the food he hasn't got enough time to eat it.'
