Politicians Preparing to Wage War on
Organized Labor.
Washington, D. c., July 16.-(Spe-
cjal Correspondence Milwaukee Sentt-
mel. l.)-According to expressions by
persons who are in position to knew
the sentiments which exist among the
republican leaders, there is a disposi-
ton to meet the attack of thc labor
leaders everywhere in the congress
sional campaign with energy and fear
lessness. This expression comes in
connection with positive denial made
here today that Speaker Cam n is to
make mis- coming tour into Maine for
the purpose of aiding in the reelection
of Representative Littlefield, against
whom the labor leaders are making a
vigorous contest. 1t was asserted to-
day that Mr.. Cannon's trip to Maine is
solely to keep a promise which he.
made to Senator Frye year ago to
Iaake at least two speeches in Maine
in the next congressional campaign.

Central Labor Union Will Profit by
Special Performances.
Next Thursday evening at the Oliver
theatre will be given the second an
nual benefit for the Central Labor
Union, rendered by Mr. Jess Fulton
and his splendid company, and Mr.
Zehrung, manager of the Oliver On
will be offered, and will be presented
by the Fulton Stock Co. in the best
possible manner. In addition to this
society drama there will be several
unique specialties. Mr.. Fulton will
sing, the Mechanics Quartet will
sing, and another local artist will do a
stunt of entertaining. All in all it
will be the best thing of the kind ever
offered in Lincoln.
Tickets exchangeable for reserved
seats may now be had of various dele
gates to the central body Union men
are requested to call on T. W. Evans
at Wohlenbergs cigar store and get a
supply of tickets to sell to their
friends. The regular prices of the
house will prevail and tickets are now
exchangeable at the box Office. Now
get busy and force the genial Mr..
Thompson, the genius who presides at
the Oliver box Office, to hang out the

It is not certain that Mr.. Cannon will
si.eak in Littlefield's district At all

It is not certain that Mr.. Cannon will
si.eak in Littlefield's district. At all
events the speaker and other repub-
lican leaders are inclined to minimize
the activity of the leaders of the union
labor forcs. 1t is said that Speaker
Cannon will meet the issue raised By
the labor organizations in his own dis
trict, and that he believes he can de-
feat the efforts of the leaders to uni, e
wol Klngmen against him on thu issues
presented as result Of congressional
action or nonaction. The speakers
mostly engaged in the soft coal mines
of Illinois. The general claim is made
by The republican leaders in congress
that while the labor leaders insist that
the fight they are putting up is direct
ed gainst democrats as well as re
publicans, it can not but fall more
heavily upon the republicans because
that party, being in the majority, Is
responsible for legislation or failur"
of legislation. In the face of this fact
the speakers friends and sever al
house leaders are expressing the opin.
Ion that President Gompers Is making
mistake that will be fatal TO the in
terests of union labor by mixing up In
the politics of the congressional cam
paign. 1t is asserted that manifesto
tions of political bossism by Mr.. Com
Iers will react against his control of
Union labor and that the downfall of
the American Federation of Labor will
be not unlike that of the old order OF
Knights of Labor when it was at its
zenith and declined, it is claimed, as a,
result of too much bossism and poll
tics In the light of these opinions tie
republican leaders are inclined to meet
| the labor issue square1y wherever it is
presented. This is notably true in the
case of Speaker Cannon in his own
district.
The wageworker. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1904-????, 1906-07-20
LEAVE HIM At HOME.

Uncle Joe Cannon's services in con-
gress have been solely in the interest
of every evil that the American people
have risen against. He should go
down in the wreck this fall, never to
rise again. 1t must be possible among
the great mining, manufacturing and
farming interests of the Danville dis
trict to find a man capable Of uniting
all elements and politically destroying
Cannon To permit that man to again
act as the agent and protector of the
Carrion trust and poison squad in the
halls of congress is to affront the de-
cency of the great bulk of the Ameri-
can people. Beat "Uncle Joe.

ment workers in Lincoln, and none of
them is getting what he or she earns
They have no union, they work long
hours, and their pay is far below the
average union scale in force in St. Jo-
seph and Des Moines They have no
sick or death benefits. They are at
the mercy of their employers.
The other day Manager Jones of the
Lincoln Overall and Shirt Co. took oc-
casion to make few remarks regard
ing check recently given by his out
fit to girl-a fac simile of the check
having been printed in The Wage.
worker. He said that the week the
woman was earning the $2.42 woman
working alongside her earned $12
That's what Jones says. Perhaps it is
true. But The Wageworker dares Mr.
Jones to show his books and prove
that the average wage of the machine
girls in his factory is So per week.
If Mr.. Jones will show his books, and
the girls running machines in his fac
tory average 50 a week, The Wage
worker will donate $40 to any local
charity Mr.. Jones may designate. If
to any charity The Wageworker Sc
lects. If Mr.. Jones' books show that
the average wage paid in his factory
is equal to IS per cent of the average
scale paid in the Mcdonald union fac
tory in st. Joseph, Mo-, The Wage
worker will donate SO to any local
, charity Mr.. Jones may select. II not,
Mr.. Jones is to donate $40 to a char
ity to be selected by The Wageworker
Here is another proposition The Wage
worker will make to the manager Of
the Lincoln Overall and Shirt Co.'s
shop:
| The Wageworker believes that the
Leverage wages paid in the Jones shop
lis less than $3.50 per week. II Mr..
Jones will submit the wage roll to a
committee of three appointed by The
| Wageworker, and the roll discloses
that it is greater, The Wageworker
will donate to any local charity Mr..
Jones will select the sum of $50. II
the average is $3.50 or less per en-
ploye per week, Mr.. Jones is to donate
to local charity sum equal to 25
cents per head for all the employees on
his pay roll.
| Just now Mr.. Jones is SO busy get
ting ready for the Epworth assembly
that he may not have time to give this
Ematter his attention. AS soon as he
can take day of from talking about
the future life, and consider the pres
ent necessities Of men and women in
his employ, we trust he will cogitate
on The Wageworker's propositions.
