HoAGLAND A CANDIDATE,

Henry V. Hoagland, known to prac.
tically everybody in Lancaster county
is candidate before the republican
primaries for the nomination as sher-
iii. There may be equally good men
in the race for that Office, but there
could be no one better than Mr.
Hoagland. A veteran of the civil war
with record to be proud of, a citi-
zen whose life has been blameless,
and public official who has devoted
his energies to the performance of
his duties, Mr.. Hoagland has strong
claims upon the support of people
who insist uron fitness rather than
upon the good fellow" dodge in their
officials.

removed by the business agent of the
Bartenders' Union last Monday morn
ing. The local member of the union
in that place neglected and refused
to pay his dues despite the urgent
request Of the local. Everything pos
sible in the way of a concession was
offered, but without avail, and on
Monday the card came out The same
action was taken about a year ago.

AS the matter now stands the Bauer

The company, however, placed its
remote and disreputable part of the

has been located since the fire, and
did many other things to make life
unbearable for their telegraphers. A
man was then discharged at Los An

lowed.

men, Johnson and Cutter, and Mana

Both companies manage to get on
a small amount of business by work
ing night and day, but are unable to
handle anything outside of the state.
While the operators do not expect
managers to go on strike, they be-
ing under bond to the company, they
feel that Manager Wolf of the Postal
has been aggressively partisan, MAX
ing efforts to secure operators for
other places and doing all in his
power to break the strike.
The general situation, according to
a local operator, is good. On the
board Of trade, Chicago, twelve men
are making an effort to do the work
of 800 and at Kansas City eight men
are trying to supplant 325. At other

ALITTLE EXPLANATION
Why Union Printers Handle "scab"
Associated Press Copy.


Associated Press Copy.
There may be those among the
union, men of the country who won
der why the union newspaper printers
consent to handle the Associated
Press copy that is now being sent
out by ''scab" press operators. The
explanation is very simple.
The printers employed on newspa-
pers that employ only members Of the
Typographical Union in their compos-
ing rooms are under contract. Each
local union makes its own contract as
to hours and wages, subject to the
approval of the international execu-
tive council. In addition to this the
International Typographical Union
has an arbitration contract with
the National. Publishers Association
whereby 1t is agreed that all differ
ences shall be submitted to arbitra-
tion. 1t is the boast of the Interna-
tional Typographical Union that it has
never violated a contract. Some
months ago the union printers on
Pacific coast daily struck without
giving a chance for settlement by the
arbitration board, and walked out of
the Office. The management imme-
diately wired the facts to President
Lynch. The executive council met at
once and ordered the printers back
to work instantly on penalty Of los
ing their local charter and their
cards. They went back, the arbitra-
ton board got busy, and in three
days the matter was settled to the
satisfaction of all concerned.
This is why the union printers con-
sent to handle the "scab'' copy. But
it's a safe bet that the union printers
will lend the striking telegraph ope-
rators both moral and financial sup
port, and to the limit, too.

PRINTERS MAKE GAIN.

The newspaper printers of New
York have just secured a handsome
wage increase, and they got it with
out any trouble. They just showed
the employers their side of the case,
and as a result an increase of 81 a
week was granted. The job men Sc
cured a substantial increase in the
wage scale some time ago.
