HIT THE WRONG BOY.
James Richardson in Consequence
Has a Broken Skull.

Adam Knauber, a white boy, and Jas
Richardson, negro, engaged in a fight
at the Imperial billiard hall on lower
Kansas avenue Saturday night, and the
negro is still confined to the hospital
as the result
The negro. who is employed in the
place, claimed the boy owed a small bill
for a pool game, and disturbance en-
sued. Richardson struck the boy, who
retaliated with a blow of a billiard cue
or some other like weapon. The negro
then chased Knauber about a bloch,
where the white boy stumbled and fell.
The negro fell upon him and carved him
on the neck, head and side with a razor.
Both were taken to the hospital where
the negro developed symptoms of a
broken skull. The boy was patched up
and taken to the city Jail. He got out
on bond Sunday.

UNIONS AND THE CITY.
They Are Having Trouble About Print
ing Ordinances.

Trouble with the union print shops
is staring the city council in the face.
The city council will shortly let the
contract for printing the new book of
revised ordinances. The contract will
represent an expenditure of several
hundred dollars.
Union printers in the city fear that Al
Bauer, a non-union printer who stands
close to the city administration will
secure the contract. In consequence
they are making strong representations
in favor of union labor to the members
of the city council and Mayor ". H.
Davis.
They have visited the councilmen and
have brought all the available influence
to bear to have Bauer's bid thrown
out.
Because Bauer employs non union
help the printers who are opposing him
claim that he will be able to do the
work considerably cheaper; cheaper
than those who are in the union and
employ none but union help.
The fact that Bauer was one CT the
and was accorded considerable credit
paign adds to the belief of the men
lighting Bauer that he will be given
the contract.
The councilmen are in a quandary as
to what they should do They don't
like to antagonize union labor and at
the same time they like to secure the
contract done as cheaply as possible.
Union labor is not as strongly organized
here as in other places and this fact
operates against the surety that Union
labor will secure the contract.

| individual from heartless corporate in
terests, and there are some, for better
hours, for more healthful surroundings,
to drive out sweat shops and child labor,
to secure Sundays for rest and for
wages that are reasonable; when labor
elects wise and judicious men to repre-
sent them in councils with employers,
who dares deny its right and usefulness.
But when it seeks to destroy property,
take life interfere with the rights of
it's own members, it seems to me that
it is the private member Who becomes
the slave to a leader and surrenders his
own individuality and becomes a part of
machine along with others. Don't
misunderstood me. This is not the fault
of the unions. I do not see that the
union pleads that sort of a cause. But
it is the result of graft and unprin-
cipled leaders who have wormed them
selves into. places of power. Unions,
labor declarations and combinations, can
not avoid many times the ridiculous
and harmful acts of members any more
than a church can. Why antagOnfZe
labor unions because a few have proved
unworthy? While only twenty per cent
of the laboring men in the country are
unionized we must admit that they
have accomplished much that blesses
humanity.
1.-THE church is anxious to get men to
listen because she has the cure for all
misunderstanding and strife and hard
feeling between men and fellowmen,
employer and employed. When this
cure is applied, when it is recognized an
ocean of serious difficulties will vanish
as if by miracle. You know the cure
1t is the doctrine of Jesus Christ. 1t
is the love of man for man.
Mr.. Cleveland closed his sermon with
a vigorous exhortation for the fostering
of love for ones neighbor- He declared
that the panacea for all the conflicts
between man and man on all questions
could be found in the words of the text,
