ERNEST HUNGER.
WHY, TO BE SURE!
President Ellis Corey of the United
States Steel Co., better known as the
steel trust, declares that he will
break the strike of the miners in the
trust's employ if it costs a million dol
lars. Why, to be sure! What right have
these insolent miners greasy, dirty
mechanics to ask Mr. Corey to pay
them more money? They ought to be
thankful that they have such a man
as Corey to provide them with jobs.
How could they earn a living if men
like Corey didn't let them work? And
what right have they to ask for more
wages than will suffice to keep grub
in their bellies and a few rags on their
backs? Don't they know that Mr.
Corey has to take care of his actress
bride now? And actress brides cost
a lot of money. Mr. Corey has been
put to a lot of expense lately, and he
really can not afford to increase the
wages of his hired help. Mabelle cost
him a mint of money, for Maybelle
knew a good thing when she saw it.
and the way she elongated the pedal
extremity of Papa Corey was some
thing frightful. Then the wife he dis
carded the one who had helped him
to amass his fortune insisted on hav
ing a share, and Mr. Corey had to part
with a wad big enough to almost con
vince him that perhaps, after all, May
belle was not worth the price. In view
of all these things it is very unreason
able on the part of those miners to
ask for more money. They really
don't need it. They haven't any ac
tresses to squander money on, and
most of them belong to that old-fashioned
and rapidly disappearing class
that still holds to the principle that a
man ought to be the husband of but
one wife.
Of course, Mr. Corey will not stand
for any increase in the wage of the
common herd that works for him.
What right have they to bother him
just now when he is reveling in the
somewhat second-hand charms of his
variety actress bride? If these greasy
mechanics were capable of feeling a
sense of shame they would now be
hanging their heads instead of mak
ing loud talks about "justice" and all
that sort of rot. What do such fel
lows know about justice?
Back to the mines, you fellows!
Don't you realize that your strike is
causing Mr. Corey and his variety
actress a lot of trouble? He has to
come through with a lot of diamonds
and laces and lingerie, and Maybelle
can't have his mind distracted by any
such trivial thing as the rights of
workingmen.
We are astonished at the nerve of
those common workingmen putting
the husband of the variety actress to
such trouble right in the middle of his
honeymoon.
Why, Papa Corey, the husband of
the variety actress, and Papa Post, the
husband of the stenographer, ought to
get together and fairly burn the at
mosphere in their denunciations of
those awful workingmen.
The workingman is distinctly "it"
these days. The candidates are nu
merous, and the glad hand is thrust
out to the worker every time he turns
a corner. They all love the dear work
ingman about this time of the year.
Collier's Weekly is now handing
things to "Grape Nuts." That is an
other fake added to Collier's long list,
and it should have been among the
first instead of the last.
The worst we can wish for the un
speakable McPartland is that his long
dead conscience will be resurrected
and work overtime on him for the rest
of his life.
Now notice how many continuances
will be taken in the cases' against Har
ry Orchard before they are finally al
lowed to be forgotten and then dis
missed. Organized labor should rest on La
bor Day and do all of its parading on
the Tuesday following after the first
Monday in November.
Ths Lincoln Star seems to think
that Steunenberg was the victim of
conspiracy and wants to know whose
brains helped Orchard in concocting
the plot. It doesn't take much brains
to attach a fulminating cap to a stick
of dynamite and fix a wire so it will
explode the cap when a gate opens.
Really, it takes more brains to con
coct an editorial attacking the child
labor law.
Through The Wageworker Wally
Crandall asks the republican working
men to support him in his candidacy
for the nomination for clerk of the
courts. He has been a deputy in the
clerk's office for a number of years
and is amply qualified for the position.
Ernest Hunger, "the Dutch Con
stable," announces himself through
The Wageworker as a candidate for
the republican nomination for sheriff.
There are no flies on Hunger. He has
made good in every public position he
has occupied.
Good morning, Mr. President, is Sen
ator Borah an undesirable citizen
merely because he is under indict
ment for gross frauds against the gov
ernment he is sworn to uphold?
Isn't it about time for the working
men of Lancaster county to give the
lawyers to understand that the work
ingmen ought to have some voice in
the selection of judicial candidates?
Now Omaha is talking about the
erection of a Labor Temple. And of
course if it comes to a race Lincoln
will skin Omaha to a frazzle.
If the Almighty ever wants to take
a vacation He can easily find plenty
of federal judges who feel perfectly
able to understudy Him.
Of course all the candidates have
the union label on their cards. They
are great label lovers just about cam
paign time.
The candidates are always willing
to do a lot for us before election, and
never forget to do things to us after
election.
It is cheerfully conceded that Sena
tor Borah worked mighty hard to
earn that slice of mine owners' money.
Montana justice is all right as long
as ten million men are on guard to
prevent a miscarriage.

The Liar.
"Blivtns is the biggest liar I ever
saw."
"Why do you say that?"
"He went to an oculist the other day
and told him his eyes were sore be
cause he strained them looking for
union labels."
"Well, perhaps he did."
"Not on your life! He made 'em
sore looking through the smoke of
scab cigars."
Retired.
"Soakerly has been scratched from
the benefit list."
"I didn't know he had been out on
strike."
"He hasn't but his wife refuses to
take in washing to support him any
longer, and now he'll have to go to
work."

Who is this man who talks so loud
About the honest workingman?
Who is it that declares he's proud
To move among the working clan?
Why, bless your soul, he's got an ax
That he is grinding early, late;
And he is just as smooth as wax
For he, you see, is a candidate.
Cards
One demand for the label is better
than a bushel of hot air.
Life is too short to be lived alone.
Labor spies are put off watch by the
open meetings.
Unionism means mutual helpfulness.
The genuine union man takes his
unionism home with him.
Ohio republican politicians have de
