o o FALL AND WINTER Looking for Good Clothes at a moderate price? Tbaft the kind we sell. Neat, dressy, well-fitting and serviceable clothing at prices that appeal to the careful and economical wage earner. Ten to Eighteen Dollars You'd pay more for the same good's at other places. But even at this price we make a reasonable profit. The profit we make, how ever, is not nearly as great as the saving to you. We can demon these facts if you come in. Union-Made Goods Lots of them. Work Clothes, Hats, Shoes, Shirts, Overalls, etc. WE CHALLENGE , COMPARISON IN THESE LINES. INVEST YOUR MONEY IN THE NEW BREWING AND ICE PLANT LIHCOLH BREWING & I(E (0. The shares are $50 each, payable in 10 months at $5.00 per month on each share purchased. It is confidently expected that this stock will increase in value rapidly and also pay large dividends. The most conservative business men of Lincoln are buying this stock, and we want YOU to have at least one share, as it is intended to secure the co-operation of many hundreds of stockholders with small in vestments, rather than a few with large investments. Every dollar subscribed will be put into the company's property; no cash is paid out for promotion. EVERY DOLLAR OF COST WILL BE UNION MA TERIAL AND LABOR. It seems unnecessary to argue the profit in the busi ness. Ice, alone, will pay good dividends. The most conser vative estimate would be at least ten per cent annually, riany other concerns pay four or five times this. Write to any address below and say how many shares you want. No money will be asked for until enough is sub scribed to make it safe to call the money. It will be thirty or sixty days before any money will be asked for, and then you will be notified where to pay the first payment. DIRECTORS M0RBIS FBIEND, T. J.

The ballot wa3 had on it several propositions. among them releasing jurisdiction ov er the newspaper writers, increasing the president's salary, increasing the secretary-treasurer's salary, and the age pension plan. Owing to the fail uer to post the notices of election a majority of the membership over looked the election and less than thirty votes out of a total of over a hundred were cast. The salary propositions were badly beaten. The pension plan was adopted. Lincoln Dental College CLINIC Open for Patients Every Afternoon - 10th od O Kt. F. A M.

Because of his membership he was enabled to draw good wages and enjoy steady work and in due time he accumulated some dollars all a result of unionism. In due time this printer became an Employer and very soon a Change came over him. The conditions he in sisted on when he was an employe he refused to grant as an employer, and he 'Derided the union Bitterly. And all the while everything he had about him he owed to the Union which he derided. Moral: He lacks any. The executive . committee, acting jointly with the executive committee from the Presmen's Union, has been planning and executing a lively label campaign lately. This has not been confined to publicity in The Wage worker by any means. The commit tee has provided each chapel with a supply of stamps, envelopes and "stickers", and notified the member ship to get busy. Good effects have already been realized from the "stick er" campaign.' Recently a business firm flooded the city with handbills printed in a "rat" shop. For the next few days that firm's mail was loaded down with handbills returned having the "sticker" attached. It did not take long for the firm's, manages to get wise. They then hurried to a fair shop and had the work done all over again, promising never again to gst out a bill without the "little joker" thereon. The two committees are fig uring on enlisting the aid of other unions in the city and doing some "Demand the Union Label" advertis ing that will make everybody wake up and take notice. A printer, who is a delegate from the Central Labor Union to the Min isterial Association, was called upon for a few remarks at the meeting of ministers last Monday morning. He responded. After the meeting a min ister asked: Well Brother , what are you going to do with non union man?" "Do with him just like you do with the sinner, get him Into the fold," was the ready reply. "Billy" Norton, chief fugleman of the Daily Nebraskan's mechanical de partment, is going to proudly exhibit another union x card pretty soon. He is a charter member of the new Mu sician's Union. Coffeyville RailroadPonds. As the result of the bond election Coffeyville will get a new railroad' to the southeast. The proposition to is sue $30,000 in bonds to the Coffeyville & Memphis road carried by a large majority. The road will commence at once and will be built fiom Coffey ville to Centralia and Vinita. Both of these towns have already subscribed aid to it. It is expected eventually to extend it Arkansas toward Mem phis. Another proposition that car ried was for a new $25,000 school building. - When a fellow keps his eyes and ears open he will see and hear some funny things in union circles. A few days ago The Wageworker's famous sleuth, Padlock House, was a member of a group of union men on a down town corner. Every member of the group was spouting unionism to beat the band. Finally one of the group; a union printer, began a bitter denun ciation of a former member of the union who is now a proprietor and running a "rat" shop. After talking for ten minutes and declaring with many adjectives that he was a trades unionist from the ground up, the speaker extracted a package of "Bull Durham" tobacco from one pocket and a roll of papers from the other and proceeded to roll himself a cigar- oot. Wouldn't that jar your . unionism? A source of valuable information to the tens of thousands who visited the Minnesota state fair last month was the booth of the St. Paul Typographi cal union. The project was conceived by Ross Reynolds, chairman of the executive committee of No. 30. He and his colleagues distributed thous ands of circulars and other literature advertising the label, and brought it to the attention of many people who had never given the subject much thought before. A large picture of the Printers' Home was on view, as well as a group photograph of the late Hot Springs convention. Typographical Journal. Bert Hood has drifted in from Fre mont and will print in Lincoln for a while. Rood was one of the strikers at the Fremont Tribune plant, and the Hammonds could search the coun try with a fine tooth comb without finding a "rat" or a non-union printer who could come within gun shot of Bert Rood as a printer. The Wage worker man worked along side of Rood thirteen or fourteen years ago and knows him. Mrs. Harry Ingalls of Omaha, a member of the Omaha Auxiliary and delegate from that body to the Hot Springs convention, has been visiting in , Lincoln during the past week, the guest of Mrs. Ira Miller. Mrs. Ingalls was one of the "bunch" that shook the convention one afternoon and spent a delightful half day 'pesticatin' among the Arkansas hills and watch ing the colored friend and brother in his native element. The Fremont Unionist is a new weekly labor paper. It is "red hot" and still a heating, and a lot of poli ticians are already sitting up and tak ing notice of it. . McClure's Magazine is no longer printed in the McClure shop. That unfair firm found it a losing game to fight the Typographical Union, and it has the job out on contract. Once there was a 'printer who land ed in a Western City without any large number of dollars in his pocket He became a member of the Union, and received therefrom many Bene- If You Wish to Practice Economy Buying Clothes, Buy the Better Grades. Men are fast coming to know that strict clothes econ omy is not in buying cheap unreliable makes. Al most invariably such clothes are poorly tailored, ill fitting and in the end unsatisfactory in every way. In other words when the dealer can only say for his clothes that they are low in price, it is safe usually to conclude that they are equally low in quality, for such dealers are very likely making profit in excels of the dealer who emphasizes the best grades. When we sell a Kensington Suit or O'coat we are sure of a pleased customer for these garments not only wear better but look 100 per cent better from beginning to end. If you haven't already seen them you'd better come in next week. ' , KENSINGTON CLOTHES FIT. i MAGEE & DEEMER Are You Satisfied? With your present Gas burners, do you ttiinK they need adjusting?
