Sale of Great Northern.

About the most striking incident of the
day was the sale of 5000 shares of
Great Northern preferred by a single
broker. on account of which that stock
suffered a severe decline, a good part of
which was, however. later recovered.
There was naturally much conjecture
with regard to the source from which such
an order In such a stock could have orig
mated. but Wall streets curiosity in this
respect was not satisfied. By the middle
of the days business session all depart
ments of the market showed an average
advance in the neighborhood of l per
cent.
About the only news of any consequence
relating to individual stocks was that with
regard to the labor troubles threatened on
the Pennsylvania lines, but the advices In
that respect had no particular effect upon
the stock concerned.

Boot end Shoe Workers Reflect Of
ficiaIs Who Made Good.
After legal battles and court injunc-
tions galore, the International Boot
and Shoe Workers Union proceeded
to hold another election for general
officers, and the result was the re-
election of President John E. Tobin
and Vice President Coils Lovely.
This is a victory for the progressive
element in the organization and means
that the organization will continue to
be conducted along progressive
though conservative lines.
Mr. Lovely is we'll known in the
west and has the respect and conf
Gence of thousands of union men of
all trades. He has made an especial
study of. the convict contract system
and his pamphlet thereon is an es-
tablished authority. Congratulations
are due to Mr. Tobin and Mr. Lovely
but the international is more to be
congratulated on having the wisdom
to continue these men at the head of

Local Union Preparing for Warm
Membership Campaign.

The union plumbers of Lincoln are
framing up a campaign to increase the
local membership, and about the first
step will be to give smoker and
Dutch lunch and invite all members
of the craft The local will push the
social feature to the front during the
slack winter months, and the boys
are figuring on setting a record in
this line.
The Lincoln local, while small in
numbers, promises to do more than its
per capita share in the work of max
ing the Labor Temple project win
ner. AS a matter of fact it has al
ready come through" as a local for
more than S1.5O per capita, and the
boys do not consider this as even a
starter on what they will eventually
do.
Work continues to be fairly brisk
and all members continue to get in
full weeks at union wage and union
hours This is more than can be
said by some former members who
sold their union membership for a
mess Of partnership" pottage.
