Six initiations at last meeting. This
disposes of all paid-up applications.
However, there is a goodly number
with a good start toward their initia
tion, and rarely a day passes but some
one makes a beginning. A large num
ber are turned down who are found
not to be competent workmen,, and
are not willing to be classed as ap
prentices. The Capital Beach job has twenty
one journeymen working on it.

It is a well known fact that in both
clothing and furnishings we carry the
best we can buy, and because of this
some people get the idea that we are
high priced. They think so until they
have taken the trouble to make com
parisons then they see it differently.

.CENTRAL LABOR UNION.
Lazy Weather Causes Light Attend
ance and No Business.
The regular meeting of . the Central
Labor "Union last Tuesday night was
poorly attended even more so than
usual. As a result little if 'any busi
ness of importance was transacted.
The state of trade reported by the
trades represented was very encouraging.
There were some informal talks con
cerning organization, but no commit
tees were ready to report. The meet
ing adjourned early. '
WOMAN'S LABEL LEAGUE.
THE BARTENDERS.
Experience with a Crooked Organizer
Makes the Boys Sore.
Several members of the local' Bar
tenders' Union are regretting the
presence among them recently of one
Fred Bauman, who claimed 1 to be an
organizer for the American Federa
tion of . Labor and of the .Bartenders'
International League. ' Bauman-hailed
from Kansas City, where he had been
elected business agent of Local 266
after he had been suspended by the
International. He raised a 'little sum
of money while in Lincoln by borrow
ing on the strength of credentials that
now seem to have been , a ''fake" like
himself. Secretary. Sullivan-of the In
ternational writes that Baurtfan is no
good,' that he has raised checks, bor
rowed money on . false pretenses and
generally conducted himself like a
"scab." All unions are herebj- -warned
against him. i "" i-1; .-
The Lincoln bartenders are consid
ering the question of meeting btit
once a month during the heated term.
The matter is to be settled1 by a vote
of the union at the next meeting, and
every member is requested to be there
and register his choice.- The union
has been meeting twice a month.
The union bartenders of the country
have donated. over $5,000 to the earth
quake sufferers. This is a record of
which the Bartenders' Union may well
be proud.
WIVES OF UNION MEN
Should Stand by Their Husbands in
All Efforts at. Betterment.
When a man marries he generally
tries to the best of his ability to make
his home pleasant and comfortable for
the girl who has consented to share
her lot with him.
And'a woman ought to consider her
husband's interests first.
If a woman has a husband who is a
candidate for some political office, do
we hear her singing the praises of her
opponent?
Why, even if she didn't know the
difference between the republican
ticket and an example in algebra, she
would swear by it because her hus
band does.
But when a man belongs to a union,
the ' greatest and only protection a
workingman has, how many wives up
hold him? When there is an etxra as
sessment to aid some strike," she will
say (as a rule):- "Let. them take care
of themselves. You are not one of
them, and why should you help them?
I need that small amount myself; I
want to buy a new waist." -
But listen! The husband will say;
"If ever I am on strike, these men will
help me." '
The wife answers: "But you may
.never go on a strike; there is all your
money gone." ' ' '
Such a woman might be talked to
till a man turned to stone, and she'd
never understand. She doesn't want
to, and when a person doesn't want to
understand, they're worse than those
who can't.
A man comes home and says to his
wife: "My dear, when you go into a
store to buy anything, always ask for
goods with the union label on .them, as
that will insure to us the, fact that we
are not buying penitentiary made
goods." , ,
The wife smiles very swee'tly and
says she will, and the very next day
goes into an unfair house and buys
goods that salesmen tell her are not
made by unjon workmen.
Now, what are the union men going
to do in their fight for justice when
their wives, who have promised to be
a helpmate to them will tear down
what they have built up? Even if the
union men do demand union made
goods, where they spend $1 their wives
and daughters spend $50.
What the country: wants and- needs
are union wives and union daughters.
Where women have come to the
front, haven't they always won? Who
can fight and win against a woman
who is a woman?
Can't the women- see that where the
husbands received $2 a day before
unions were in existence, they now re
ceive $3?
Won't they understand every time
they buy non-union made articles they
weaken their husband's cause and help
their industrial enemies?
The old saying, "Men must work and
women must weep," has gone out of
style. There is very little use for
weeping, clinging women that men
used to die for and consider them
selves heroes for doing it. What we
want now are women who work; wom
en who are not afraid to hold up their
heads and say, "I demand the rights
that belong to me and mine." ,
Oh, women sisters! Wake up be
fore it is too late! When women will
stand side by side with the men in
their struggles the men are strength
ened and 1 encouraged, and women
should consider, who are men fighting
for if not for them? If a man cared
nothing for his family, would he care
how much money he earned as long
as he was provided for?
And now let us put our hand in the
hand of our union brother and' say:
"As long as I live I will do my part
toward advancing the cause of organ
ized labor by always demanding the
union label." Clothing Trades Bulle

THE NEW LYRIC.
Manager Miller Says a Few Words
About Union Craftsmen.'
Manager Miller of the Lyric wants
it distinctly understood that he is in
no wise responsible for the employ
ment of non-union carpenters on the
new Lyric building. He agreed to
lease for a term of years at a stated
rental a new building to be erected
according to plans drawn by him. The
6wner of the property agreed, and
then - proceeded to let the contract.
Manager Miller has not only protested
against theN employment" of non-union
carpenters; but has kept it up ever
since the work began.'
"I'll have some work for carpenters
as soon as the contractor is finished,"
said Mr. Miller the other day, "and
you can bet it will be given to union
men. I'll give it to union men for two
reasons I believe in union labor and
I want the work well done and quickly
done. It's results I'm after, and I can't
get them with , a bunch of .incompe
tents. The work on the building is
dragging because the men are actually
in each other's road. I've sworn about
conditions until it has soured on my
stomach, but I am powerless. Just
wait " until I .come into control, and
there won't a be a non-union crafts
man on the job. You can depend on
that." - .. .
GENEROSITY OF UNIONS.
How Union Men Help When" Brethren
Are, in Need.
Organized labor can always, and at
all times be depended upon to rise to
the occasion, no matter what it may
be. A recent instance is the calamity
at San Francisco. Scarcely had the
first alarm of fire been sounded and it
became apparent that the city was
doomed, assuming that there would be
want and hunger there, the various
organizations, rational as well as
local, unsolicited, began to forward
financial and other aid to their breth
ren in the stricken city.
The response of this appeal has been
very generous, and is continuing. Sec
retary Kenehan of the International
Horseshoers, has sent their members
more than $500. Secretary-Treasurer
Morris furnished their membership
with $1,000, . and more to follow. So
far, the International Typographical
Union has placed $21,000 at the dis
posal of the San Francisco Union, and
the locals have furnished probably as
much more. And so it goes. We ven
ture the assertion , that " the trades
unions of the country have so far
placed fully $100,000 at the disposal of
the unionists of the coast City. Those
that can are getting out, but there will
probably be considerable t work for
those who stay, especially in the build
ing trades line, for some time to come.
There will be much suffering and pri
vation for several months, and it will
be a long ' while before things resume
their normal channel. Advices say
that tradesmen of all classes should
remain away from the coast until re
quested to come by the local -unions
there.
Every labor union in Denver is con
tributing to the relief of their breth
ren in, San Francisco. Chairman
Thum and his Trades. Assembly cpm
mittoA nre ar.tivedv at work ant it is
?siiiiiamu tuat iuuy $3,uuu win ue con
tributed by Denver unions. So far,
$43,000 has been sent from 'Indian
apolis, where a number of Interna
tional headquarters are located. Aside
from this, the United Brotherhood of
Carpenters and Joiners have contrib
uted 1,000 sets of tools. '.
The prompt response ' of organized
labor to the call for .aid is only one
more striking example of the .often
stated Jact that trade unions are not
solely brought to life for the sole pur
pose of raising wages, shortening of
hours and bettering conditions, but tof"",
help the distressed, bury the lead,
nurse the sick and care for the widow
and orphan as well. 'Put a pin in this ,
fact, Mr., Union Hater. Denver Clarion-Advocate.
