THE CARPENTERS
Evidently Too Busy to Send News to
The Wageworker.
The union carpenters of Lincoln
must be a mighty busy lot these days.
Not a news item from them for three
weeks.' "
At the meeting last week the car
penters agreed that it was best not
to parade on Labor Day, and heartily
agreed upon a picnic. But when it
dime to patronizing a resort that
could be reached only by paying four
fares on a non-union street car line.
they balked hard. The carpenters

An ex-business agent of the Kansas
City Carpenters is laying brick in Ar
gentine. Has he a card in the Brick
layers' union.
Kansas City Union took another
lurch forward at the last meeting,
thirteen candidates being initiated.
Seventy per cent of the mechanics in
one of the largest mills in the city
are now members of the union, and
the other 30 per cent "are on the
way."
Fifteen members of the Brother
hood of Carpenters of Newark, N. J.,
were fined $100 each by the union
for not striking. They refused to go
out on a recent strike when ordered,
pnd when the firm which employed
them settled its differences with the
union they were discharged.
CENTRAL LABOR UNION.
First August Meeting Will Be Held
Next Tuesday Evening.
The Central Labor Union will hold
its first August meeting next Tues
day evening, and owing to the near
approach of Labor Day it is to be
hoped that every delegate will make
it a point to be present. There is
a lot of business waiting for the at
tention of the central body. If the
delegates would show up and take
some interest in the work it would
be possible to soon report the organ
ization of two or three new unions
in the city.
Several of the unions have not
been represented for a long time,
some have never been represented,
and some have been represented but
once or twice during tbe last six
months. This is not as it should be
The meet Tuesday night should be one
of the largest held in recent months,

officers in a few weeks, and the ac

In the habit of attending so they can
select the best available material to
conduct the affairs of the body.
A lot of people waste time in try
ing to cultivate a "love of the artis
tic" in the bosoms of those who have
to sweat blood every day in order to
get enough to live on.

TRYING TO SETTLE TROUBLE.
British Government Regrets Riots at
Belfast, Ireland.
When the house of commons met
August 13 the Irish members wanted
the troops withdrawn from Belfast and
others urged the necessity of a full
inquiry. Mr. Birrell, the irisn secre
tary, said:
"The government is fully alive to
the urgency of this matter, and is do
ing all it can to secure a settlement
of this unfortunate strike."
The president of the board of trade
is sending a representative to Belfast,
the trades unionists of Ireland hav
ing notified him of their willingness
to submit to arbitration. War Sec
retary H ildane read a report from the
officer commanding the troops at Bel
fast, in which it appeared that one
of the objects of the military demon
stration was to separate the Catholics
and protestants. It appeared that in
the trouble at Belfast, as usually nap
pens, there has developed a cleavage
on religious lines. The protestants
have cheered and supported the troops,
while the attacking parties apparently
have been composed of Catholics.
ADMITTED TO PRACTICE LAW.
Portland, Ore., Chinaman Becomes
Member of Bar.
What is believed to be the first
time that a Chinese has been admitted
to practice in a federal court occurred
at Portland, Ore., when Seid Back, jr.,
was accorded that privilege by Judge
Calverton in the United States district
and circuit courts. The real name
of the Chinese is Seid Gan, but he is
commonly known as Back, the name
of his father.
Young Back is twenty-six years old
and was born in Portland. He has
always been a leader among educated
Chinese of the city and recently com
pleted a course at the Oregon law
school, afterward being admitted to
the bar.

The attorneys general of the Mis
sissippi valley states met at the
Southern hotel, St, Louis, to formulate
plans for a national conference of at
torneys general, at which concerted
action to enforce various state anti
trust laws can be arranged. The
meeting was at the invitation of At
torney General Herbert S. Hadley ot
Missouri.
Boy Drowns in Cistern.
Mark, aged nine years, only child
of Harry D. Wilson, cashier of the
First National bank of Nebraska City,
Neb., was drowned in a cistern at the
home of F. D. Spencer, two miles
west of town. He. in company with
two other children, was throwing
apples in a cistern which was in the
kitchen, lost his balance and fell in,
drowning before help could reach him.
Will Be No More Hangings.
At Flemington, N. J., John B. Schuy

GRAFT PROSECUTIONS GO ON.
Wheels Grinding in Every Department
at San Francisco.
The wheels of the graft prosecution
are grinding in nearly every depart
ment of justice in San Francisco.
The supreme court listened, August
12, to arguments on the application
of various indicted officials praying
for writs of prohibition restraining the
superior court from trying their
cases. In Judge Lawlor's department
of the superior court the new trial
of Louis Glass, vice-president and
general manager of the Pacific States
Telephone company, was begun. The
men indicted in the Parksite - deal
was called upon to make their pleas
before Superior Judge Dunne. The
grand jury listened to further evi
dence of the Pacific States Telephone
bribery and incidentally acted upon
the accusation filed with the district
attorney's office by Michael Casey,
chairman of the committee on elec
tion frauds, charging that the
Schmitz-Benham-Berger wing of the
labor party is engaged in "criminal
colonizing." In addition to listening
to argument in the applications for
writs of prohibition the supreme
court probably will hear argument on
the mayoralty question.
WOMAN PREVENTS A WRECK.
Saves Limited Train on Santa Fe
From Going Into River.
Mrs. Minnie Houdeshell, wife of a
trackman living in a tent beside the
tracks three miles west of Ethel, Mo.,
125 miles east of Kansas City, saved
the eastbound California limited pas
senger train on the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fe railroad from going
through a wrecked bridge. As a re
sult of recent heavy rains the abut
ment had crumbled and fallen into
the river. It was almost time for the
limited to arrive, and Mrs. Houde
shell, realizing the fact, hurriedly
gathered some dry sticks and going
to the west approach of the bridge
kindled a fire. Then she awakened
her husband and sent him further up
the track with a lantern. The train
was stopped at a safe distance from
the bridge.

CONTINUE TO SELL STOCKS.
Liquidation . Resumed' at
New York
Near a Level.
Last week's liquidating in the stock
market was - resumed at the openiag
in New York August 12, and sav
for a few fitful rallies was maintained
throughout the session. Securities
came out in enormous volume for the
first ten minutes, when the situatipa
was one of utter demoralization. The
interest losses were recorded by the
Hill and Harriman stocks, but a num
ber of less conspicuous issues were
thrown over at severe declines. A
new very low level made it ise
silent panic" of last March. Senti
ment in high financial circles is de
cidedly pessimistic.
