They work short hours because the

Following is the address delivered
by President Bain of Lincoln Typo
gaphical Union No. 209 on the -occasion
of "Printers Memorial Day," at
Fraternity hall:
The fraternal tie that binds us to
gether and the lessons which we have
learned in fostering fellowship and
brotherhood, and in shielding from ag
gression the isolated, defenseless toil
ers and which encourages ns in de
veloping those kindly instincts within
the innermost recesse of our hearts,
which are the fundamental principles
of our union defending the defense
less, befriending the friendless and in
culcating lessons of justice and good
will among men causes us to assem
ble here today, as is our custom an
nually, to pay a tribute of respect to
those with whom in former years we
were associated as felow craftsmen,
commonly called printers, but in
reality artists working at the art pre
servative of all arts, the art which has
been and still is waging a war of en
lightenment among all nations through
the medium of characters that convey
our highest thoughts in the better
ment of mankind. I say we are as
sembled in memory of our departed
brethera. It is a mournful occasion.
It necessarily brings to our minds
those who labored with us from day
to day in the varied occupations con
nected with our craft and with whom
we were brought in contact. They
have gone from among us; their work
is done; their proofs have been taken
and turned ia to the great Proofreader.
Let us hope that their proofs have
been clean. Whatever their errors,
let as overlook them and call to mind
today their virtues and good qualities
and strive to emulate them so far as
we can. Let as remember that we
are brothers la the flesh as well as
in our daily avocations. Let as culti
vate a true fraternal spirit toward
each other, ever rememberings
The creel aad the bitter word
That wounded as it fell;
The chilling want of sympathy
We fert but never tell;
The hard repulse that chills the heart
Whose hopes were hounding high
Ia aa unfading record kept
These things shall never die,
The timid hand stretched forth to aid
A brother ia his need.
The kindly word in griefs dark hour.
That proves a friend indeed.
There is too much selfishness in this
beautiful world of ours. We are too
apt to forget the duties we owe to
each other and to think only of our
own desires and aspirations, regard
less of our fellow craftsmen, and ia
doing so often tdge our brethera.
sometimes intentionally, but let
hope more often thoughUessty aad
unintentionally. -So let as ever be
watchful of oar actions ia everything
perti:cg to oar fellow craftsaiea. If
we are prompted to do some act that
is doubtful ia its nature, let as ask
ourselves the ouesrjoa. would I tike
I sack to be done to ate? Let as act
J apoa the Golden Rule. Let haneoay.
I peace and coateatmeat ever prevail
j ia oar ranks. Let as try to remember
: that we get tae most good to our-
j selves by striving earnestly to do good
to each other. A cheering word spoken
here aad there, the friendly daso of
the hand, the proCtered aid ia time of
j need all help towards th uplifting'
of our associats.
I The fundamental priaciives govera-
tag the organization of oar vast army
of craftsmen proved a shining star
and aroused within the hearts of the
gentler sex, so closely bound to us
by sacred ties, the idea of furthering
the cause of unionism. Today we have
with us and also over our Jurisdiction
a vast army of helpful assitants the
wives, daughters and sweethearts of
our fellow craftsmen to aid us in
strewing Sowers over the graves of
our departed. These assistants are
caled auxiliaries, and we, the mem
bers of Lincoln Typographical union
No. 209, are proud to have with us the
ladies of our sister organization Cap
ital Auxiliary No. II, who are always
ready to assist us in all our func
tions. May their good work never
grew less and their numbers increase
is the wish of the membership of No.
299.
We drop the beautiful flowers
the tributes of esteem on the graves
of our departed ones let us ever be
mindful of our obligation, one to
another, so that our pathway through
the life that is before, us may be
strewn. with the beautiful flowers of
fraternity. In the language of
Thomas Wentworth Higinson:
Though the bivouac of age may put
ice in our veins,
And no fixer of steel in our sinew re
mains; Though the comrades of yesterday's
march are not here.
And the sunlight seems pale and the
branches are sear,
Though the sound of our cheering dies
down in a moan.
We shall find our lost youth when the
bugle is blown.
Charley Fear, who missed out in his
candidacy for delegate to the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, proposes a
meeting of the vanquished at the Bos
ton convention. Now wouldn't that be
a great session? The "Pirates Reun
ion" at Hot Springs would be a Sun
day school session in comparison. If
they'll make it a session of the van
quished and their supporters well try
to be there.
If ever I make up my mind to run
or political office, said Jimmie
Leaden the other day, Tm going to
ask Ingraham how he holds his men
in line. He got forty-nine votes at the
first election, and the same number at
the second election. If that isn't hold
ing em in line I don t want a mil

"Gene Lyman is spending all of his
leisure time poring over the railroad

Stilt Wondering if a Union Band Will
Lead Nebraska Democrats.
Whether or not a Lincoln, band
made up of union musicians will fur
nish music for the Nebraska demo
cratic -bunch at Denver remains
puxaie. An effort is being made to
raise enough money to preclude the
possibility of the democrats from Lin
coln marching behind a non-union
band picked up in a country town. The
time is getting short.
Ole Oleson is director, and W. R.
Fetterman and W. C Layman direc
tors of the new organized Capital City
Union Band. This band will furnish
the music for the Wild West show
and Frontier Carnival at the fair
grounds, July 2. 3 and 4. The mana
gers of the hand may be reached over
Auto phone 1449 or Bell "phone A-
32$4. This organization gives the
dry another band that will be a credit
to it and to the Musicians Union.
The continued wet weather forced
the Auditorium ganfsa to suspend
operations for a time, thus depriving
musicians of work. The gardea will
resume operations ia a few days, and
union orchestra will furnish the
stasis as of yore.
The Dixie Concert band, playing at
Capital Beach was reinforced by
several members of the local union.
It made a band that attracted many
people aad brought out much favor

Now that the moving picture exhi
bition proposed for the city park has
beea abandoned, something ought to
be dee towards having a few band
concerts in the park.

an immense crowd. The srdendid
work of this organization brought ou

lic to understand that Lincoln now
has a hand that will commre more

the world's amazing progress in the last hundred Tear? par
ticularly in the last 60 one of the most noteworthy topics for
discussion will be the multiplication of newspapers a? to both
number and circulation. His explanation will be made up
largely of a statement of the influence of steam and electricity
in newspaperdora. His most difficult duty will be to explain
satisfactorily the almost complete disappearance of the old
fashioned paper in which the editor was bigger than his
paper and the evolution of the huge, impersonal papers of the
present day.
The chief work of the papers of the immediate future will be to make
themselves absolutely independent and as impartial as possible in the
discussion of public men and public measures. Even a casual observer
can see that the day of the thick-and-thin party organ has about ended.
In the good time coming there will be found some way of stripping this
mask from papers which are really the personal organs of certain baneful
interests but which pose as real newspapers and in that war constantly
guil their readers.
Thomas Jefferson once declared that as between a country without a
government and with a free press and a country with a government and
without a free press he would choose the former a declaration to whk-h
I agree; but he meant an honest press and not a subsidized press. The
people demand more and more clean, honest, fair, courageous journal km.
The papers of the future will not be half so large as the papers of
to-day. Xews, editorials and advertisements will all be condensed not
only to save time and money but as a matter of humanity. Once repre
sentatives in congress spoke ad libitum. Now an hour is the longest
speech possible except by
unanimous consent.
The paper of the future
will exploit good deeds more
and reduce the reports of
scandal to the minimum.

By JOHN A. BQTUHB.
There is a type of man and father,
ambitious for his sons, who might be diffi
cult to understand were it not that a study
of the conventional in life makes his r"
tion easy.
Occasionally, through correspondem
I come in touch with this man, n b is in
censed at the idea that any form 9t un
questioned logic or hardheaded condlta1
of fact should be expressed in sharp 'eol-
conventional to back them up. He is afr
to face the facts of life. He refuses to ae.
cept the laws which have been reached by
deduction as governing the careers of men.
TThy should not my sons aspire to anything?" he insists. The
world is full of opportunities. There is no limit to human accomplish
ment in human affairs.
Pessimism long has been regarded by the alienist as a disease. In any
exaggerated form, without the material and pressing conditions which
might breed it, the expression of pessimism is only an effect, pointing
back to its cause in an aberrated brain and nervous system.
In contrast to this victim of neurasthenia is that other typical ease,
in which everything under the sun wears the glory of imagination. Sleep
ing on a cot in a detention hospital for the insane, the cell is a palace.
Then manifestly between these extremes must lie the narrow line
of sanity and sense of proportion, without which a sane existence cannot
be sensed; without which a sane existence cannot be liTed.
Optimism has grown to be a conventionality so strong in influence
that it often is an affectation, pure and simple.
VTe have been dealing in extremes let us take an example of the
extreme in the accomplishment of the boy. Every American born boy of
sound physique is a potential president of the United States. He must
be a better president if he shall be trained to diplomacy and statesman
ship. He should have the environment of statesmen and of diplomats.
"Why not train your son all your sons to diplomacy and statesman
ship? I ask of this conventional father.
But a candidate for the presidential office is not eligible until he
So vears old ; probably at 65 years old age again would make him ineligi
ble. But at most in this SO years of age eligibility, with one term to each
executive, the office would be filled enly seven times. The "ehanee ia
too great," is this anticipated answer.
Whk-h brings us back again to the disturbing law of averages against
which his conventional optimism has risen in arras. A United States
senator a short time ago declared that 97 men ruled the financial destiny
of this nation. A social arbiter might advance the statement that 100
families lead the nation's society. Scientific, literary, art, and professional
experts might group the several leaders in still smaller numbers.
What is the use? O, what is the use of holding up to the young man
as goals these peaks of attainment when so much that is sweet and lasting
in life lies untasted and untouched at the feet of the young man, mis
guided and straining his eyes with looking upward ?
