10 Methods.

T.. F.. Roberts, publisher of the Gage
County Herald, Beatrice, who is also repre-
sentative of the Western Publishing com

There is a growing sentiment among
country publishers against the methods
employed by the Typothetae, the employing
printers association, to induce country
printers to come into the city to take the
place of the uRion men," said Mr.. Roberts.
Agents OF the Typothetae are sent out
into the smaller towns to look up the best
printers, when they make them fiattering
offers to come into the city. The arguments
used are that the wages in cities like
Omaha are SIS to s2o while the country
publisher only pays S12 TO SIS, These agents
say that living in the city is cheaper. that
meals can be bought for Is cents, lodging
for 81 a week, with much better advantages
and opportunities for amusement.

of 81 to 50 per week in wages, which Is
more than most of the country publishers
can afford to pay. Printers working in
smaller towns at SIS can save more money
than a man in the city at $40. There is no
street car fare, while board and lodging Is
50 per week less, and men are not docko
