H. MARX, 1922 NORTH TWELFTH
STREET,

Merchant tailoring has taken rapid
strides during the last twenty-five
years. High class tailoring is strictly
profession. The cutter of today is
an artist and in order to hold po-
sition must be a graduate of an acad-
envy; when he has learned the art
he is enabled to cut his patterns to
the wearer's individual peculiarities of
build; to bring out all the good points
and conceal the bad ones. We desire
to call the attention of our friends
to the establishment of H. Marx, To-
Gated at 1872 North Twelfth street, who
conducts his business along the lines
mentioned. He carries a fine line of
suitings, trouserings, and has fine
line to select from. He guarantees
perfect fit, and his prices will suit your
purse. Mr.. Marx has been in business
one year and has made many friends.

BENEFITS CENT LUNCH ROOM,
212 NORTH SEVENTH STREET..

In giving a review of the business
firms friendly to union labor we take
great pleasure in devoting some space
to our friend, Mr.. Bennett. This gen
tleman conducts the well-knoWn 5-cent
lunch room across from the Burling-
ton depot This is where you can get
a good lunch at price that suits
everybody's purse. Mr.. Bennett is
also in the cut rate ticket business.
He buys and sells tickets to all parts
Of the country at a reduction in price.
This gentleman has on many occasions
manifested most friendly interest
in the cause of labor and is entitled to
our hearty cooperation. Mr.. Bennett
has been in business since 1884.
The wageworker. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1904-????, 1907-02-01

we wish to refer in this connection to
the Lincoln Transfer Co. This COM
pany is operating thoroughly
equipped storage and transfer system,
and at the same time dealing in coal.
The business of this company consists
in handling general freight, and the
storage of household goods. Their
warehouses are the best equipped in
the city. This firm employs over fifty
men, and you will find all their en-
ployes courteous and polite. The Lin
coin Transfer Co. is beyond a doubt
the oldest firm in the city. The man
ayers of this company believe in good
organization and are always foremost
in any movement for a greater Lin
coin. They hold broad and liberal
views on industrial questions and we
feel it our duty to include them in the
list of Lincoln's business institutions
that are entitled to the support of
organized labor. Whenever you have
any trunks to move or goods to store
remember the Lincoln Transfer Co.
They also have a coal office in con-
nection. Tel. Bell 1776, Auto 3271.

Mr.. POSTS BLUFF.

We would hate to express our opin-
ion of the St. Louis Central Labor
Union. That body let Mr.. Post bluff
it to a standstill. The secretary of
the ST. Louis central body challenged
Mr.. Post to debate the union ques-
ton and Mr.. Post promptly accepted
the challenge, coupling with his &C
ceptance the condition that each side
put up $1,000, winner to take all, and
the decision to be left to three un-
biased judges. The st. Louis organi-
cation took water.
A thousand dollars is mere pocket
money to Charles w. Post, but it is
small fortune to the average work
ing man. But the twenty or thirty
thousand union men of ST. Louis could
have raised the money in jiffy. If
they have not in their ranks thOus-
and men who could make monkey
of Post on the platform it is high time
they founded a few night schools.
Mr.. Post having made a bluff at the
St. Louis unions perhaps he will be
willing to consider a challenge from a
agree to appear in per son and meet
upon the platform in joint debate some
union man of Nebraska to be selected
by the editor of the Wageworker, per-
haps a debate can be arranged. The
editor of the Wageworker can not put
up a thousand dollars, and Mr.. Post
will not propose it unless he is cow
ard and thoroughly dishonest. Sup
pose we make the callenge fair one.
Mr. Post
The editor of the Wageworker here
by challenges Charles w. Post to a
joint debate on union questions to be
mutually agreed upon, the debate to
take place in Lincoln on dates to be
mutually satisfactory. Mr.. Post is to
deposit with the Columbia National
bank of Lincoln one weeks income
from his various investments, and the
editor of The Wageworker will sim
ilarly deposit one weeks income from
his paper and his several correspon-
dence lists, together with a week S
salary from the paper upon which he is
regularly employed. The winner Of
the joint debate is to take all, the de-
cision to be left to three unbiased
judges, the editor to select one, Mr..
Post one, and these two the third one.
MI TOSI is W appear III person anu
not by proxy, and his opp1nent shall
be member of a Nebraska trades
union in good standing and having a
clear card since January l, 1907.
Mr.. Post can not claim that this is
an unfair proposition because it con-
templates his putting up the most
money. He puts up less in proportion
than the editor of this humble little
newspaper.
If Mr.. Post refuses to accept this
challenge on this basis, we will be
very glad to receive one from him.
He can get a debate in Nebraska with
out much trouble if he does not hide
behind his big fortune and make the
forfeit unreasonably high. The union
men of Nebraska are getting along
fairly well, but up to date none OF
them has amassed enough of a fortune
to impel them to throw overheard the
good wife and take up with fuzzy
haired stenographer.
We are waiting to hear from Mr.
Post.

LABOR'S WATcHWORD.

We will stand by our friends and ad-
minister a singing rebuke to men or
parties who are either Indifferent, neg
ligcnt or hostile, and. whenever oppor-
tunity affords, secure the election of
intelligent, honest, earnest trade union
lists, with clear, unblemisr ID, paid-up
union cards in their possession.

LINCOLN TRANSFER CO., 1000 O
STREET.

The growth and advancement of
Lincoln from commercial point of
view during the last few years has
been on an equal rate with other pro-
gressive cities. 1t has gone forward
rapidly and has built enterprises and
lines of trade that have made it ia

west but in all sections of the country

Sixteen members of the Nebraska

the child labor bill. That means six

at future elections.

If it is anything in the world that
Lincoln doesn't need it is a lot of cheap
and nasty boarding houses-so cheap
that girls can afford to work for star
walton wages.

Rice at Weddings.

At a wedding breakfast, according
to What to Eat, bridesmaid was
heard to tell the true reason for rice
being used at weddings. It was once
believed that if on their wedding jour
ney newly welded couple saw a flock
Of doves it would mean a long life Of
peace and happiness to them. A Dr1dal
party in passing so frightened flock
of these timid birds that they flew
away in great alarm, and to avert the
evil omen that their fight signihed for
the newly married couple rice was
thrown in great quantities to lure the
birds back to the place from which
they had flown. This plan was so
successful that the welded pair went
on their way rejoicing and lived ever
afterward happy and prosperous life
Since then rice has been used as a
symbol Of good luck, peace and happi-
ness at weddings.

WATERS ART KNOWLEDGE,
Anecdote Recalled by the Death of ST.
Gaudens, the Sculptor.


The recent death Of Augustus ST.
Gaudens recalls a story which ap-
peared in German paper some years
ago. A party of Americans, so went
the story, were lingering over the last
course Of long dinner at the Schwei-
zerhof, in Lucerne, one evening, dis
cussing the works of art which they had
seen in Italy The conversation drift
ed to art in America, the sculptors of
note and their creations. The works
of st. Gaudens were enumerated and
one Of the party said, ''It seems to me
you have missed one" and then every
body's thinking cap was adjusted, but,
while several members of the company
agreed that there was a ST. Gaudens
in America somewhere which had not
been mentioned, no one could name it.
After the Americans had called them
selves foolish and $50 stupid" the
waiter, who had listened, as walters
do, at respectful distance and with
stony face, went a step nearer and in
good English said:
"Beg pardon, gentlemen; worked at
hotel near Madison square, in New
York, several years. Possibly you are
trying to think Of the Farragut monu.
ment." He was right ''That waiter"
the story teller said, "was the son Of
a large hotel owner, a college man,
and probably knew as much about art
as the men whom he served with food
and information
