JOURNAL-NEWS NOTES.
Some Items Gleaned In the Big Print
ery at Ninth and P.
Running ten machines two shifts,
with two subs in the shop, is the state
of trade in the big prlntery at Ninth
and P streets. It beats all how busi
ness keeps up in our town.
V. F. Rockey, who has been working
in the various chapels In the Journal
building for the past several months,
has drawn his card and is going to
Chicago to work this winter. Mr.
Rockey, though young in years, has
had some good experience in the trade.
His first insight Into the mysteries of
the art preservative was secured in
the office of the Daily Post in this
city. After leaving Lincoln Mr. Rock
ey mastered the Mergenthaler and
worked in many of the eastern cities,
finally going to London, where he
worked several months. He has been
doing a stunt on the book side of late,
where such a thing as a lay-off is
seeming impossible, hence his depar
ture for the Windy City in the hope
of a little rest. N. B. Since putting
this item in type it is understood that
"Mr. Rockey has been induced to re
main in town a while longer.
George E. Locker has left the News
chapel and is now holding down a ma
chine in the Star office. We miss
George from our midst, but what is
our loss is their gain. (With apolo
gies to "Old Timer").
Jay E. Worley, job man at the New
Century, was seen rushing frantically
into the Journal office the other day,
and of a friend inquired as to where
he might find the Poultry Topics sub
scription clerk. He stated that he de
sired to secure the publication, as he
is entering the chicken business, and
there are some few things he doesn't
know about the birds. It is intimated.
too, that there are other poultry rais
ers in Mr. Worley's neighborhood who
are desirous of Informing themselves
on similar lines, but that their first
step will be to put a padlock on the
hen house door.
James Klnkead has been keeping
bachelor's hall, Mrs. Kinkead and the
new boy having been visiting.
Bartholomew C. Sweeney, late of
the Journal chapel, is now working on
the Colorado Springs Gazette.
George Brostrom has been a regular
on a machine for three weeks and is
not married yet! What do you think
of that?
Were this the proper place for the
discussion of chapel doings or other
inside union workings a "heeps cud be
ced." i
Some members seem to think that if
they had no out of work benefits to
pay they could buy and pay for a
house and lot each month.
As would naturally be supposed, the
sentiment in favor of Smith and Quick
hereabouts 'seems very strong.
"JAWN.'
tional Union, was defeated at the re
cent election. Mr. Lovely has been in
Lincoln two or three times and he was
greatly admired by the scores of union
men who became acquainted with him.
We are not acquainted with the facts
that resulted in his defeat, but we
are satisfied that if his successor
makes a better officer he will have to
be a "king pin."

LINCOLN MADE FLOUR.
Equal to
the Best and Lincolnites
Should Use It.
The Wageworker is carrying the ad
vertisement of Barber & Foster, mill
ers of Lincoln who make the justly
celebrated "Liberty" and "Mascot"
brands of flour. There is no reason
why a pound of flour made outside If
Lincoln should be used in Lincoln.
Especially is there no reason why Min
neapolis flour should be used in Lin
coln. Nebraska raises the best milling
wheat in the world, and Barber & Fos
ter grind this prize wheat into flour
that is the equal of any flour made
anywhere. It Is business idiocy to
ship our wheat to Minneapolis, have
it ground into flour there, then ship the
flour back to Nebraska. "Nebraska
wheat must be ground in. Nebraska
mills, and the flour baked into bread in
Nebraska ovens!" That is an almighty
good battlecry for Nebraskans.
The Wageworker urges its readers
to try the'Barber & Foster flour. The
manufacturers guarantee it. '
THREATENS GREAT LOCKOUT.
Chicago is threatened with a lockout
of 50,000 building trades employes as
a result of numerous sympathetic
strikes on various big buildings in the
down town districts. It is said the
trouble is due to a strife between the
steamfltters' and plumbers' unions as
to which should install pneumatic
tubing. Efforts to reach an agreement
have proved futile.

The attorney general of the United
States has made a ruling that the
eight hour law applies to work In con
nection with the irrigation reclamation
service. He also holds that firemen,
pumpmen and blacksmiths and their
helpers employed by the government
come under the provisions of the eight
hour law. But he adds that the men
may work overtime in case of an "ex

Little Interest Manifested at the Elec
tion This Week.
Last Monday afternoon was the day
of election, held at the home of Mrs.
C. H. Turner, and up to a late hour
there had seven out of our forty-seven
members been up to vote. It looks as
though we were interested in our In
ternational, doesn't it?
Printersville has lost two printers.
George Locker moved closer to the
office when he saw signs of winter, and
"Blllie" Norton has bought a home on
Twenty-fifth and Holdrege.
Mrs. J. M. Hatch, of Council Bluffs,
spent a few days last week visiting
relatives and friends in Lincoln.
Sam Webster, of the Star ad alley,
was passing a box of labeled cigars
Monday. He says it is a boy, which of
course means another union printer.
Mrs. J. F. Lee of Nashville, has been
appointed deputy international organ
izer of Women's Label Leagues for
the following states: Tennessess, Al
abama, Mississippi, Louisiana and
Georgia.
BY YOUR WORKS.
Show by Acts That You Want to Help
the Teamsters' Union.
Every union home in Lincoln must
soon be supplied with coal or- wood for
the winter. This must be hauled from
the coal yard to the home. Are you
going to patronize a dealer who will
send your fuel out by a "scab" team
ster, or are you going to make good
your union professions by insisting on
having it delivered by a union team
ster? It is up to you to either fish or
cut bait on this union proposition. The
union carpenter, printer, painter, cigar
maker or anything else who lets his
coal be delivered by a "scab" teamster
Is "scabbing" on a fellow unionist.
That's the long and short of it.
The Teamsters' Union has been
working against long odds, but a lot
of the boys have kept the faith. Now
get into line and help them by insist
ing that your coal dealer delivers by
a union teamster. If the coal dealer
will not do it, change coal dealers.
