THE FRESHMEN.
A Few Thoughts from the Boys Who
Putt he Squeeze.

The report is around among press
men that members of the Topographic
cal Union say if they do not get the
label into the Journal now they never
will, as they have the union pretty
well officered by Journal men. Now
don't crowd, boys! There are others
in the line as yet. What is needed in
union circles is little Christian spirit
and then things will go smoother on
both sides.
If some of our young pressmen and
feeders would just go to church one
night week and the other six nights
in the pool halls they would be better
than they are now 1t is no idle fancy.
What are we going to do about it? 1t
nothing happens to us thirty or forty
years from now most of us will be
dead. Better consider the issue, boys,
and be a little bit better, for when you
stand before Peter and he asks you
how you have spent your life, you will
have it to tell A man need not be
ashamed to go to church because he is
so bad, for Paul said he was the chief
of sinners When man needs help
he looks for a man that has some re
ligious principles. s--4 49, $500

are bounded to death. by members of

advertise in The Wageworker, and the
sooner the merchants find that out the
better for them. The union men do a
lot of talking among themselves and
don't bother merchants that are I'M
friendly to them. All that's biting the
other newspapers is that the working
men have a mouthpiece, too, and they
would like to crush it through the
merchants.

Feeling Good Over Conditions That

There will be a called meeting of

considering the following:

The meeting will be called to order
promptly at 7:30 at Carpenters hall,
$50 South Eleventh street.
Only six or eight members are re-
ported as not working, though the
stormy weather the fore part of the
week laid out a number of the boys.
Up to this writing, Wednesday, no
report had been received from the con-
tractors.
Bro. Dickson of University Place
was out the first of the week and hopes
to get to work next week.
Stewards reports are not any
thicker than the law allows. Blanks
may be had of the business agent, the
recording secretary or Conductor
Chambers.
Bro Binder drifted in from Colorado
and attended the last meeting. He
says that Colorado does not suit him
and that he does not suit Colorado.
There is a growing sentiment in ia
vor of less rag chewing" and more
business at the meetings, thus enab-
ling the members to get home before
the cars stop running.

CALLED DOWN.
Attention of Commercial Club Called
to an Oversight.

At a meeting of business men at
the Commercial Club the other day
member called attention to the fact
that the Commercial committee had
spent three hours the day before
planning on getting a manufacturing
institution here that would add fifty
or sixty families to Lincoln's popula-
ton.
Through the courtesy of the gentle
men present the editor of The Wage
worker was allowed to make few re-
marks. Before he spoke, however, he
slipped out and took a peep at the
cigar case in the club room. When he
spoke he called attention to the fact
loudly proclaiming it's desire to add to
Lincoln's manufacturing enterprises
and to boost the home patronage idea,
it did not have a Lincoln made cigar
on sale in the club rooms, every one
of the twelve brands in it's cigar case
/ being of foreign make. And yet
said the editor of The Wageworker,
| IF every business man, and every
man in Lincoln who earns his living
in the city, should smoke Lincoln made
cigars it would add more than double
the fifty or sixty families Mr.. Rudge
mentioned TO the population of the
city"
Then H. NJ Bushnell, of the Trade
Review, who is a good friend OF or
ganized labor and consistent practl
toner of the home patronage idea
gave the assembled business men g
gentle castigation for their hypocri
teal claims of always looking out fol

WHY NOT GET IT?
Workingmen Can Secure Saturday
Half Holiday by Trying.

'dH 'oHody ny Trying.
At meeting of retail merchants at
the Commercial Club last Wednesday
Mr.. Henry Mayer, managing partner
of the firm of Mayer Bros, declared
that he was in favor of closing the
stores at ; o'clock on Saturday after
noon. J. E. Miller, of Miller & Paine,
called this bluff by Immediately offer
ing a motion that all retail stores close
at o'clock Saturday evening. Mr..
Miller followed this up by saying that
his. firm had closed at o'clock Satur-
day evening for several years and
were satisfied with it, He further said
that all of the increase in the average
sales were on Saturday, thus proving
that the firm had lost nothing by early
closing. Mr.. Mayer then backed
water" by saying that early closing
would do for dry goods stores, because
the women did all the buying, but that
it wouldn't do for clothing and shoe
stores because the workingmen had
no other time than Saturday evening
in which to do their buying.
Mr. Mayer is wrong. Early Satur-
day closing might work some incon-
venience for a time, but conditions
would soon adjust themselves. One of
the first things to receive an impetus
by reason of early closing would be
renewed agitation-and probable sue
cess-of the Saturday half-holiday
project
when we finally decided to close
at o'clock every evening but Satur-
day we thought the world would come
to an end-that no business would he
DONE" said Mr.. Mayer:
Now Mr. Mayer admits the mistake.
A year from the time he and others
followed the exam5e of Miller &
Paine and closed AZ o'clock on Sat
urdays he would doubtless be entirely
within the truth by saying that the
course had really been benefit in
stead of loss. Workingmen who are
agitating for shorter hours should be
quick to respond when merchant
shows a willingness to shorten the
hours of labor for his employees. The
Wageworker cordially invites Mr..
Henry Mayer to make good his }

The Southern Railway and the COM

This is the first schedule that has

ZINC OUTPUT GROWING.
Production for 1905 Reached 2o3,
SAG Short Tons.

The production of zinc in the year 1905
amounted to 200. $40 short tons. according
to a report prepared by Charles Kirch-
hoff and published by the United States
geological survey. This is an increase of
7.147 short tons over the production of
1904 The production of zinc has more
than doubled since 1897. when it amounted
to IS. $50 tons.
The principal increase in production has
taken place in the eastern and southern
states. In 1904 the Graselli Chemical
company in West Virginia, built a new
plant which had it's first full year of
operation in 1865.
In Kansas no new plants were started
in 1905, but those which opened in 1904
had full years production. These in
cluded the Caney Zinc company at
Caney. which enlarged further to ten
blocks in 1905; the Chanute Zinc company
at Chanute and the Cockerill Zinc COM
pany at Altoona The CRANKY company
made a large product, having added a
fifth block. Two Zellwegger mechanical
roasting furnaces are building The
Prime Western and the Lanyon Zinc
company each added one block, and the
United Zine & Chemical company is
building two blocks and will soon add
two more. Construction was started dur
ing 1905 on the works of Hegeler Brothers,
at DanViile. Ill, and by the Mineral Point
Zine company. at Depue. III. The New
Jersey Zinc company, which has four
furnaces at Palmerton, Pa, is enlarging
