ABOUT THE PRINTERMAN
On the square, we wouldn't mind
it at all if we had ben a guest of
the Home on Christmas day. The
boys out there had a big time, judg
ing by a handsome menu card sent us
by Superintendent Deacon. The card
is a handsome sample of typography,
and the menu shows that the culinary
department of the Home Is in the
hands of rtists. For breakfast the
guests of the Home had oranges, oat
meal, broiled lamb chops, French fried
potatoes, hot biscuit, bread, butter.
tea, coffee, and milk. For supper they
had cold boiled ham, lettuce, baked
potatoes, American cheese, wheat
muffins, sliced pineapple, fruit cake,
bread, butter, tea, coffee and milk.
But Christmas dinner gee, it makes
the mouth water even ta write about
it. Here is the dinner bill: Oysters
on the half shell, consomme, olives,
salt almonds, celery, roast, young tur
key, cranberry sauce, mashed pota
toes, sugar corn, stewed tomatoes,
plum pudding with brandy sauce, as
sorted fruits, mixed nuts, bread, but
ter, tea, coffee and milk. And after
dinner there were plenty of good
union made cigars.
And here's hoping that every
mother's son of 'em enjoyed the
Christmas cheer. Fine old bunch,
those veterans of the trade, those men
whose health has broken down under
the strain. There's nothing too good
for them that money can buy, and
they can bank on the fact that 40,000
union printers are 'wishing them the
happiest kind of a Xew Year and
many of them. -
James M. Lynch has announced his
candidacy for re-election to the presi
dency of the Intel-national Typograph
ical Union. He bases his claim chief
ly uiwn the success of the eight hour
fight waged under1 his management.
The fight was won at an expense of
upwards of $4,000,000, and Philadel
phia, St. Paul, Minneapolis, Omaha and
many another city is yet in had shape.
President I Lynch Is an able man.
There Is no better parliamentarian in
the ranks of organized labor. He is a
splendid organizer. But he has built
up a one-man power machine that will
wreck the International Typographical
Union if it is not itself wrecked. The
so-called "initiative and referendum"
of- the International Typographical
Union Is little better than a farce.
The convention, always dominated by
the administration crowd, provides
the initiative. Iese majeste has been
approved under the Lynch regime.
Local' unions that have dared to claim
the right to disagree with the execu
tive council have been trampled upon
with hobnailed shoes. The time is
ripe for a change of administration.
This department's editor is for Wil
liam B. Prescott for president of the
International Typographical Union.
Prescott and reform of administra
tion!
Frank, A. Kennedy, THE executive
council or the B. O. O. Z., is In, dis
grace. Unless he can give a satis
factory explanation ' of bis double
decked duplicity the Most Worshipful
Secretary, which is us, will strike his
name from the rolls, take up his card
and ostracize him. It is charged
against Kennedy, and admitted by
him. that he actually ate at the same
table in an Omaha restaurant with
Tommy Klopp. Treason! Worse
than treason! What right has Ken
nedy to be eating in a restaurant, to
say nothing of eating at the same
table with Tommy Klopp? And the
worst of it is that Kennedy actually
glories In his shame. He sat right
there with Klopp, ate with him and
conversed with him. Brother Guye
of the Omaha Barbers' Union gives
Kennedy a deserved roasting in the
Labor Advocate for his traitorous con
duct. Of course Editor-President
Guye would refuse to shave Tommy
Klopp. And Colonel McCul lough of
the executive committee of the Omaha
Tyiographical Union would absolute
ly refuse to write anything for Tommy
Klopp to read. The Most Worshipful
Secretary -still us hereby notifies
THE executive council that when he
sends in his abject apology and ex
planation he must also send in a
double percapiter tax. We intend
making horrible example of cases like
this.

Miss Anna C. Wilson of Washing
ton is still making an active canvas
for trustee of the Home. Picture
post cards is one form of campaign
ing that this enterprising candidate is
using with effect.
Charley Fear seems to have struck
a rich lead with his labor paper at
Joplin, Mo. He is being boomed for
delegate to tae A. F. of L. by his ad
miring constituents.
Sam De Xedry of Washington is a
candidate for delegate to the A. F. of
L. from the I. T. U. He'd make a
good one, for be knows the ropes to
perfection, and he has got a wonderful
thinkery. De Xedry and Fear would
make a good team.
Outside of hte ad rooms the print
ing business has been rather slack
for the last month, but there are good
times ahead. A national campaign
always makes good business in the
printing trades.
The editor of this humble little labor
paper is proudly wearing a brand new
Elgin watch .twenty-year gold case,
presented to him by William J. and
Charles W. Bryan. Maybe it was a
hint to be a little more prompt in get
ting down to work in the morning.
And maybe one of the donors of the
aforesaid watch will be the next presi
dent of the United States. What? .
The Daily Star has started a cru
sade against the handbill nuisance.
The Wageworker heartily seconds the
Star's protest against handbills that
do not bear the la'bel" of the allied
printing trades.
Shelby Smith, Most Worshipful
Grandaddy of the B. O. O. Z., has sent
in his January percapiter and is here
by allowed to breathe the same air as
President Lynch for the next thirty
days.
It is up to the membership of -No.
209 to give the anniversary committee
every possible assistance. The silver
anniversary ought to be celebrated in
a way that will go down in history.
The Auixliary may be counted upon
to do more than its share to make the
anniversary a success. Let everybody
take hold and help the committee
frame up a record breaker. i
The Council Bluffs Xonpareil has
divorced its job department, and that
end of it is now in charge of a com
pany known as the Monarch Printing
company. George Sancha of Omaha,
an old friend of the writer, is vice-
president of the new company. San
cha. is one of the wise guys of the
labor movement and as good an all-
round printer as there is in the Mis
souri Valley. Here's hoping for the
success of the new enterprise.
A MYSTERIOUS DEATH.
William Parsons( aged 27, a driver
for the Hardy Furniture company, was
found dead in his big van near Fif
teenth and Y streets last Tuesday
afternoon. As near as can be learned
Parsons was thrown from his high
seat by the sudden starting up of his
team, and falling backwards sustained
a fractured neck. The team' ran away,
and when it was stopped Parson's
dead body was found. He lived with
a married brother and a sister at 1724
J street. He had worked for the
Hardy company two years and was a
steady, reliable man who was well
liked by all who knew him. His aged
mother lives in Omaha.
HE WAS MISSING SEVEN YEARS.
A Kansan, Given Up as Dead, Heard
From in Indiana.
Edward Brown, who disappeared
from South Haven, west of Arkansas
City, Kas., seven years ago and was
supposed to be dead, is at the home
of his brother near Greencastle, Ind.
This information was 'received by his
father. H. V. Brown, postmaster at
Braman, Ok., in a telegram from the
brother, who simply said that Edward
had come there. One day, seven years
ago, Edward Brown drove to South
Haven, put his team in a livery barn,
drew $225 from the South Haven bank
and went to Wellington. The last
seen of him was in company with
some gamblers in Wellington. After
a vain search for him his relatives
came .to the conclusion that he had
been killed in Wellington and his body
disposed of in some mysterious man
ner. He was then 30 years old and
unmarried.
