for himself. and very shortly was taken to
Bristol, Pa, and at the age OF nine was
put to work upon the Lehigh and Delaware
canal.
AS the rough life did not suit the lad he
soon went to Philadelphia and obtained en-
ployment in the establishment of Bartis P.
Newman. plate printer. There he learned
the trade of plate printing-the trade to
which he was linked by the closest ties of
friendship at his DEATH because of his warm
feeling toward the members of that craft.
Came to This City.
He left the office of Mr.. Newman in 1876
and obtained employment with the Ma
tional Bank Note Company of New York
city. In 1877 he left the trade of plate print
ing for a short while and became the gen.
eral agent of the International Scrap Book
and Illustrated Magazine. 1t was publish
ed in Philadelphia and had an excellent
run under his management. He soon re-
signed to accept a place in the bureau of
engraving and printing in Washington.
Mr.. Jordan gave up his place in the ou-
reau of engraving and printing In 1888 to
work, it is said, for the interests of his
trade and fellow-craftsmen, whose places
were threatened by the attitude of the then
chief of that bureau, who endeavoring
to put in the bureau in the place of the
hand roller presses the power presses
Those presses, Mr.. Graves said, were to be
placed in the bureau and operated in the
interest of time and economy, but his pre-
misses were wrong ana MS CONCLUSION WIS
wrong. according to Mr. Jordan, who laid
bare the fallacy of his argument to Con-
gress. Jordan claimed steam presses would
open wide the gates to counterfeiters.
Contest for Supremacy.
The contest for supremacy between the
plate printers, led by Mr.. Jordan, and Mr..
Graves, aided by the patentees, lasted
three years, ana the congressional end of
the fight was handled by Mr. Jordan He
demonstrated to the satisfaction of Con
gress that plate printing is one of the few
things that requires the skill of the hui
man hands. There were a number of men
appointed to make the fight all of whom
declined but two. His coworker, Michael
Carney, is still employed in the bureau.
Edward l.. Jordan also had literary
side, and at the time of his death was the
editor and publisher of a journal known as
the Plate Printer published in the interest
of the various printers unions throughout
the country.
Mr. Jordan was the president of the Re-
tail Liquor Dealers Association of the
United States, and for that reason he was
known all over the country as one of the
leading men in that line of business. He
was member of the congressional commit
tee of the Plate Printers Union, and presi-
dent of that organization.
Deceased was an intimate friend of Sam
uel Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor. and of Col. William
Edgar Rogers, the District commander of
the Blue and the Gray Association. Cen
eral regret was expressed today at his
death. which was in the nature of shock.
