"If the members of this club will devote
themselves to fighting socialism among the
laboring classes the organization will In
time become a vast power, that will need
a railroad nor board of fire and police com
tnlssloners to back tt up."
Thus did E. J. Cornish exhort the McKIn
ley club at the Millard hotel last night. The
candidate deviated very widely from his
campaign outlines In his speech, giving a
homily en "Political Clubs," rather than a
boost to bis own fortunes. A question
arose as to what waa the best way to In
crease Interest In the club and Mr. Cornish
was asked for his ldeaa. He said:
"I like that text, and t am familiar with
the subject. The first question that arises
la. Are meetings of any value, anywayT
My friend Tom Blackburn says to me:
'Tou're a great fellow for meetings, aren't
jou; always addreaalng somebody But It
don't amount to a thing.' Well, In spite of
that I think that meetings do amount to
something. Their value doea not He la
the number of men you move by your talkJ
Ing. Tbey are very few. It you can get
twelve men to listen understanding to
you, to try to get your Ideas, you have done
well, even If there are BOO present.
' "But the twelve are worth your while,
The real advantage In meetings lies in tbe
equipment which Is through tbem Imparted
ta others, to these twelve, for example. The
suggestions which are thrown out to those
who do Itaten and learn are by them
scattered far and wide. Thry use them In
discussion with their neighbors, with their
fellow workmen, and they are by them bit
ter enabled to handle the questions of the
ay.
"As for this club. Its membership is suf
ficient for a growth Into the Ideal strength,
a moral one. A large memberahlp mean
,thst men will Join your club merely to use
tt. That means ruin. A large membership
also means that the club will itself try to
use Its strength to plsce some popular
member In office. This also means ruin
for the club. It will not outlast more than
one such campaign.
"But use your club as a vehicle of
Hhought. As long as education In the top
lies of publto Interest Is Its object, tt will
fwsx strong. Identify yourselves with Ideas,
.represent principles. In that way you can
fin time become a moral force of your own.
(People will have you Identified with right
thinking, and you will grow Into a power
.mat win ee absolutely Independent.
. "That labor problem will be a good one
for you to take up. But one republican
speaker was asked to addresa laboring men
ia Omaha on Labor day. Find out the cauai
fnr thla f.etlCB .d remedy J.."
The club determined to hold another
meeting two weeks from last night. A. C,
Troop, candidate for the nomination for
county attorney, was another apeaker.
The West Bide Republican club met last
night In Ruhe's hall, Fortieth and Lesv-
' enworth streets. J. D. Nathanson was
elected secretary of the club and a com
rolttee constating of 8. Macleod, Frank
Johnson and Charles Ruhe was appointed

BRICKLAYERS RESUME WORK
Many laloa Mea Break Away
front Ike Raaka of the
Striker.
True to the threats made Tuesday night In
their meeting hall, many union brick
layers returned to work yesterday on the
new Union Pacific shops. They were among
the number who struck last Friday In re
luctant obedience to the order Issued by
the Building Trades council, through Busl-
ess Agent C. A. Stevenson.
Thkt action widens the breach in the
Bricklayers' union.. As has been stated.
the order for a atrlke of tbe men at work
on the new shops was Issued by Business
Agent Stevenson Wedneaday last, on the
grounds that three nonunion carpenters
were at work on the buildings. Thla order
waa ignored. It la said, on tbe advice of
the president of the local Bricklayers'
union, John H. Wlthnell, and the strike did
not become effective until Friday, when the
order of the Building Trades council was
repeated. Mr. Wlthnell, . It Is reported,
was fined 1100 for his action.
It Is said that all bricklayers returning
to work on tbe new shop buildings during
the pendency of this strike will be fined
$100, In Cefault of which they will be ex
pelled or suspended from the union. The
feeling on both sides Is running high. The
faction led by the Building Trades council
la exerting its Influence to pull the other
men off the work, while the Insurgents are
determined to hold out against official ac
tion. The carpenters and hodcarrlers refuse to
return to work on the buildings so long as
the strike exists, and the plumbers, at their
meeting Tuesday night, took do action at all.
The Duildlng Trades council . decided to
stand by tbe strike and see that its orders
were enforced.
Tbe meeting of the bricklayers, as has
been said, brought forth two results, one
inspired by the Insurgent faction, who re
fused to abide by the order of the council
and avowed Its intention of going back to
work; toe other the work of the friends of
the council, who were opposed to breaking
tbe strike.
The Union Pacific is making the most of
the dissension among the bricklayers and
preparing to Increase its forces on the
buildings with outside help. Yesterday
twelve nonunion carpenters were Intro
duced, having been shipped in over the
Wabaah. Tuesday twelve local Union Pselflft
carpenters were put to work on the shop
buildings, but . seven deserted, refuatng to
take the places of strikers.
W. W. Arnett, employment agent for the
Union Pacific, brought to the city yesterday
morning forty-three men from Buffalo to go
to work in the shops. One of the crowd, a
union man, deserted upon arrival. The men
claim to nave been hired with a guaranty
of 32 to I cents an hour for nine ' hours,
pay and a half for overtime and Sundays,
and to be placed to work on the premium
system.
A Union Paclfle official said that this ad
dition to the shop forces brought tbem up
to normal in all departments. '
The fact that the Union Pacific has ceased
preparations for housing Its shopmen during
the winter is taken as an indication of the
company's Intention to settle the strike as
soon as the new shops are completed.
Machinists yesterday received a check
from St. Paul for 1200 and one from Epoksne
for $175 to apply on the strike benefit fund.
In the morning correspondence came a let
ter from Cheyenne saying that twenty-five
nonunion men bad deserted the ahops there
and that three had been discharged for In
competency. North Platte reports eleven
desertions.
In Its efforts to restore the building forces
to their normal status the company yes
terday ordered thirteen of the bridge work
ers to begin operations on ths new shops.
Ons of the thirteen compiled and the other
twelve quit rather than take strikers'
places.' They were all , offered the union
scale of $3.60 a day. Some of the twelve
who quit bad been In the employ of tbe
Union Pacific as long as eighteen years.
None of them was a member of any union.

There ' a constant demand for more Ors
hydrants snd electric atreet - lights. At
the present time 202 water hydrants are
In service, not counting the Intermediate
hydrants. These cost the city at the rate
of $80 a year and every six months a bill
for $4,075 Is rendered. This means a pay
ment of over $12,000 a yesr for water.
There remains at the present time nnly
$491 In tbe fire and water fund and conse
quently the Omaha Water company will
not locate any more hydrants or extend the
service until there Is some money in sight.
It is the same with the electric light
company. The city maintains 104 electric
lights, but there is only $607 In the fund
to pay for theae lights during the bslanca
of the fiscal year and so tbe lighting com
pany has decided to take no chances. No
tices will be served by both the water and
light companies to the effect that no mora
hydrants or lights will be installed unless
there Is money In sight to meet the pay
ment. These notices when served will be a dis
appointment to a great. 'many people who
are building homes In1 the suburbs and
who desire lights and water.
Plans Already Drawn.
Plans for tne proposed Carnegie library
are about completed. A portion of the
working plana were submitted to a meet
ing of the library board held yesterday aft

contain rooms snd shelves to bold 80.COO
books, while at the present time the Li
brary association has not over 1,000 vol
umes. Including government reports. In ad
dition to the rooms provided for the use

will be an assembly hall, which will seat
about $00 people. Word is expected from
Mr. Carnegie's agent In a oouple of weeku
regarding tbe donation promised to South
Omaha for library purposes.

The alleys all over the city, and espe

been called to the condition of alleys In
the vicinity of the city hall, but o far

NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS OF CHEMISTRY
Sammary at aa OSSelal Monograph
sa By-Predaets, . Their Origin
aad Their Ceassnerelal
reran.
"Chemistry, like s prudes housewife,
economises every scrap," says s noed
scientist In a recent lecture. To realize
the extent to which what waa formerly
the waste snd refuss ef factories sre now
utilized It Is only necessary) to read tbe
bulletin on by-producta. Just Issued by the
census buresu. Tbe bulletin wss prepared
by Henry O. Klttredge of Boston, an ex
pert in manufacturing processes, a sum
mary of which ia taken from the New York
Sun:
While methods and processes for utilis
ing wsstee snd by-products bars been con
stantly developed for many years past. It
appears from Mr. Klttredge's report that
the sdvances mads In this direction during
tbs last decade have been particularly
notable and advantageous In ths economy
ef manufacturing.
Chief Statistician North says la bis letter
of transmittal to the director of the census
that, while 'It is Impossible to measure
statistically the addition to the wealth of
the country created by turning te some
useful purpose the residues snd by
products which were formerly thrown away
or left to rot, the material thus pressrvsd
and turned to some useful account Is enor
mous and In every Instance cited in the
report this stllliatlon has resulted In a
definite cheapening of ths cost of ths
products to the consumers. Mr. North
says:
"The subject le one that is vitally asso
ciated with the progress of every Industry
and inseparably connected with the de
velopment and prosperity of every form of
manufacturing. It has engaged the time
snd attention of the chemist and Incited
the Ingenuity of the Inventor and the skill
of the artisan to effect economies and re
veal new utilities. No branch of science
has been appealed te and relied upon so
persistently ss chemistry."
Farther Developaaeat Expeeied.
Mr. North says It would be assuming
too much to declare that the profitable em
ployment of wastes In manufacturing has
approximated the highest point to which
science is capable of carrying It.
"This point will probably never be reached
snd further developments must bs ex
pected," he ssys, "even to the extent of
converting by-products into the main pro
duct ef an industry. This reversion is ex
emplified in notable Instances within the
last decades of the nineteenth century, the
most conspicuous of which is to be seen In
the revelations of coal tar and ths highly
developed utilization of its many by-products.
"What has taken place within the last
100 years must be accepted more aa a fore
runner, a prelude, of what la to come In
the srts of manufacturing by tha employ
ment of materials now held la low estima
tion aa contributory to s high standard of
manufacture."
Mr. Klttredge ssys that while the choicest
perfumes placed on the market are made
front oils snd ethers extracted from flowers
there are many ethers which are arti
ficially 'made out of . bad-smelling ele
ments. The fusel oil obtained In the distillation
of spirits has sn odor thst is peonliarly
disagreeable, yet it is used after treatment
with proper acids end oxidizing agents In
making ths oil of spples and ths oil ef
pears; and, la addition, tbs oil ef grapes
and ths oil ef cognse are little more than
fusel oil diluted.
Oil of pineapple Is best made by the ac
tion ef putrid cheese on sugar or by dis
tilling rancid butter with alcohol and sul
phurlo acid.
One of the most popular perfumes haa
for ons of its essential Ingredients material
which is obtained from ths drainlngs of
cow bouses and Is also obtained from one
of the products of gas tar, out of which la
also obtained tbe oil of bitter almonds,
which Is so largely used In the manufac
ture ef perfumed sosp and confectionery.
a Utilising; Refase.
The refuse of cities throughout the
civilised world Is now generally collected
and die posed of for sanitary reasons and in
many Instances It is In addition utilised
to good advantages for Industrial purposes.
Formerly this refuse wss simply accumu
lated and was disposed of by burning it
er casting It Into streams or on waste land.
Now, banes, glsss, rags. Iron, psper and
other articles ars separately collected
and aold. Old tin cans are used for the
recovery of tbe solder, for the recovery of
the tin and for remelttng In the manu
facture of steel or Iron.
The wasts heat from furnaces, into which
ths Inflammable material is thrown, msy
be utilised for steam purposes In operating
engines for electric lighting snd power.
As an Instsncs of tble, the elty of Glasgow,
Scotland, ebtslns waste heat from such
larnaces equivalent to nearly S.OOO-norse
power per dsy of ten hours, for manu
facturing purposes.
Ths food wsstee of New York City ars
disposed of by s process which ts, briefly,
steam dlgeetlon aad a separation of the
cooked products into greass and fertilizer
products. Ths solids after being dried
and screened are sold to manufacturers of
fertilisers and by 'hem made vp Into grades
particularly adapted to the cotton belt.
The greaaes era nearly all shipped abroad.
refined snd separate into various grades
such ss glycerine, red oil, lard oil and
more Inferior classes. ,
Tbe economic usee of furnace slsg have,
Mr. Klttredge says, been greatly developed
within the last few years. Formerly this
slsg was carted away from the furnace
and disposed of ss wasts material and
within recent years it was estimated that
the coat of removing this waste from tbe
furnaces of Great Britain wss about 32,
600,000 annually.
Now a considerable portion Is utilized as
s sutstttute for artificial porphyry In the
construction of buildings snd for street
pavements. Paving atones srs made from
It for the streets of Mets, Brussels snd
Psris. Gcod bricks srs also made from it
and It ean be manufsctured into a cement
equal to ths beet Portland.
Waste Gasea Haraaased.
Mr. Klttredge saya a very Important In
novation in the metallurgical Industry ts
the utilization ct the waste gasee of blast
furnaces for working gss engines. This
Improvement ia shown to mean by s
theoretic calculation an additional profit of
81.35 cn each ton of pig Iron production
and this means for Germany alone, the
enly country where the utlllsatlos of these
wasts gases has as yet been effected, s
gain cf more tbaa 810,000.000 on Its entire
wrought-lron production.
The report shows that all tbs products
of lumber aad timber formerly wasted aye
now turned to seme ntllity and some of ths
new products srs ef consldersbls value.
Of this claas is sawdust, which was
formerly considered sa absolute wests ms
terlal and waa allowed to float down stream
or was throws la a heap aad diaposed of,
A way has been found of preparing this
material which gives It a value far above
that of solid timber. v By tbs process ths
particles of sawdust srs formed Into s solid
mass tspabls of being molded Into sny
shsps snd ef receiving a brilliant polish
and possessing a durability aad beauty of
appearance not found In ebony, rosewood
or mahogany. Mr. Klttredge ssys that
artificial woodwork baa s moat promising
future.
Ths production of scetle scld. wood
naphtha and tar from sawdust Is one st the
latest snterprlses in Norway, a factory
being now in operation st Fredrlkstad
cspabls of distilling 10,000 tons of sawdust
in a year. It also manufactures charcoal
briquettes from sawdust. v
By a recent English patent sawdust may
be so prepared as to be non-inflammable
snd may then be applied to the Jacketing of
boilers and used for similar other purposes.
Rsperlmratal Prearvas.
Experiments have been made by which
a high yield of sugar haa been obtained
from birch sawduat snd alcohol csn be
profitably distilled from either coarse er
Bos sawdust, the product being of high
quality and trifling Impurities contained In
It being susceptible of ready removal.
Tbe utilization of the needle-shaped
leaflet of the pine tree either slons er la
combination with some other fiber, ss cot
ton, has frequently been sttempted. Utterly
with success, to produce an article of com
mercial value for textile or other pur
poses. Near Breslau, In Silesia, there have
been erected factories that convert the
pine leaves Into what Is known as forest
wool for wadding.
Other factories have been erected in
different psrts of Europe for a similar use
of these leaflets. The products made from
thess pine tree leaflets have been exhibited
at a number of expositions, where tbey
have attracted great attention as fur
nUblng suitable material for stuffing mat
tresses snd articles of furniture In plsce of
horsehair, for manufacture Into hyglenlo
fabrics for medical use snd for srtlcles of
dress such ss underclothes, chest protectors,
etc.
Attempts hare been made very recently
In Oregon to make use of these leaflets by
reducing them to a fibrous condition suit
able for mixing with cotton, to be spun
Into yarn for weaving. In the preps ratios
of tbe texlle matertsl sn ell is, produced
which Is employed ss a curative sgent snd
oftentimes ss a useful solvent.
Mr. Klttredge trests of a great number
of Inttanocs of the utilisation of the wsstes
and by-products of other Industries, but
they are either too well known to the
general public to make mention of tbem
necessary, or else Involve technical discus
sion of discoveries -In pnrely scIentlBo
branches of Industry. ' Those describe sre
tbe Instances which receive a prominent
place in the report and are mentioned ss
among the moot Important discoveries of
the last decade In the utilization of ma
terial that not very many years ago It waa
not dreamed could be made of use or com
mercially valuable.
