The retail clerks of the city have been
working hard lately increasing the men,
bership OF their organization. At their
last meeting they took in the clerks of the
Lion Pants Company. about ten i'm all. They
are now working on the two largest dry
goods stores in the city, the New York store
and III. p. WATSON & Co. One Of the men,
bers said last night that they had been to
see the employers of these stores and had
received their consent TO organize the de-
partments. However. their greatest task is
getting the clerks Interested enough in the
union TO be willing to join and pay the in
itiation fee. Several representatives of the
union have been to see the clerks and talk
with them, but did not receive very much
encouragement. However. it is believed.
now that the consent of the managers has
been gained, the clerks will not hesitate to
join the union.

PRESIDENT LYNCH REPLIES.
What He Has to Say About the Typo
graphical Union Oath.

The recent agitation by several Catholic
priests charging members of the Interna-
tional Typographical Union with being in
eligible to dissolution account of the
obligation TO the union has been practically
overcome by priests OF the country refus-
Ing to indorse the statements. A great
many Of them have fatty contradicted the
charges and say there is nothing in the
union oath that conflicts with the individ-
uars rights in the church. The agitation was
begun by Bishop Scanned, of Omaha,
Father Ward, of Beloit, and Father Baert,
OF Marshall, Mich. The clergymen claim
that the story was much exaggerated in
the newspapers. James Lynch, president
OF the International typographical Union.
said that he did not know the exact truth
OF the charges, but that he haG ceased to
hear much more about them and thought
they were dying out Relative to the sub
ject. he has written several paragraphs
which will appear in the October issue of
the Typographical Journal. He has the
following to say:
Trade unions are certainly under the
white light OF public observation. Their
laws ana practices, their policies and aims,
anything and everything that concerns
them and their members are eagerly seized
on and made much Of as items of news.
Features that a year ago would have at
tracted slight notice, II noticed at all, to-
day furnish the themes for extensive edi-
torials on which the writers evidently try
TO expend their best thoughts. So with
our obligation The writer subscribed to this
obligation seventeen years ego. Thousands
accepted IL before that period, and thou
sands upon thousands have. without hesi-
tation, repeated IL during these years. Now
we are informed that. because Of this obli-
CATION. we are opposed to the church and
state Nothing could be wider OF the mark
nor more distant from the truth. We do
maintain that we shall be allowed to con-
duct our trade union business without In
fiuence from politics or religion, fraternity
or combination On the other hand, We do
not interfere with the political or religious
beliefs of any OF our members. These be-
lfefS are sacred to the Individual and he is
and always has been at liberty, so far as
the union Is concerned. TO follow his bent
In the selection of religion, politics. and
fraternal organizations. or he may abstain
from participation in them altogether. 1t
is immaterial To the union. The union has
Its field, and IL proposes TO confine itself to
that field From the persistence with
which certain newspapers have exploited
the attack made on our obligation by
several clergymen, the belief Is forced that
these papers would not suffer great grief
should the international Typographical
Union go ashore on the religious and po-
Htical rocks. But 1t Is not doubted that the
good common sense Of our membership
Will keep the union in safe waters, and per-
nit the attack that has been made by
those who may have been well-meaning
and afterward used a newspaper sensation.
