POWERS AND HARGIS TRIALS.

A comparison of the efforts, upon
the part of those who control affairs
in the State of Kentucky, to convict
Caleb Powers with the efforts to ac-
quit the Hargises, is enough to cause
a revolution among honest. fair
minded citizens, regardless of poll
tics. For seven years Caleb Powers
has languished in Jail, when he could
have given bond for a million dollars
to secure his appearance. He has
been tried and convicted three times.
Upon each trial the rulings of the
trial court, the unfair selection and
packing of juries against him have
been so glarirg as to cause Demo
cratic Court of Appeals to reverse
the lower court and give him new
trial. In all of his trials every scrap
of evidence, no matter how irrele-
want, if it could be in any way con-
sti ued against him, has been
promptly admitted. While, on the
other hand, it has been made almost
impossible for him to procure wit
nesses in his own behalf, to combat
a vindictive, relentless prosecution
procured by 100000, provided by
all the taxpayers of the State. 1t is
we'll to remember that the only
charge against Powers, is that Goebel
was shot from his office. Powers
was not in Frankfort at the time.
Now turn if you please to the treat
ment of the Hargis brothers. and
those connected with them, in the
assassination of, not one. but three
prominent citizens of Breathitt coun-
ty. When arrested they have been
promptly given bail, furnished By
each other. No fund has been fur
nished by the State to secure their
conviction. So far, they have been
acquitted, promptly, by juries Sc
lected for that purpose, although the
evidence has been ten times more
damaging against them than all the
evidence against Caleb Powers.
The Harglses and Callahan are
prominent Democrats and have been
ardent supporters of the present
State machine in all its contests for
supremacy. Jim Hargis has been
for years and is still a member of
the Democratic State Central Com
mittee, in good standing. At least
we have never heard of any charges
being bought against him before the
committee. Reader, when we pom
der over the records made in these
two prosecutions, we wonder what
right we have to offer criticisms to
Russia or any other despotic govern.

For some time Hamilton has been
interesting himself in the Farmers
Union movement, and he is strong in
his endorsement of the movement.
Il find that all we need to do to en-
list the aid of the farmers in our CAM
paign for unionism is to explain to
them just what our objects are. They
have gained their ideas of unfonisnl
from the Associated Press stories of
strikes and riots. They welcome the
truth. The Farmers Unions In the
southwest are growing rapidly, and
they are already giving us splendid
aid
The Wageworker is trying to pre-
vail upon Hamilton to spend couple
OF weeks in Lincoln and assist in pick
ing up a lot of loose ends. He can
find plenty of room for work among
the street railway men, the sheet me
tai workers, the retail clerks, the gar
| ment workers and other crafts.

GETTING BUSY.

i
A dispatch from Louisville states
that the executive committee of the
International Tobacco Workers have
decided to leave to a vote of the union
the question of whether or not there
shall be general strike in all the
factories of the American Tobacco
company. commonly known as the
tobacco trust" There are between
$4,000, and 10000 members of the
union in the United States and Can
ada. The committee has also been
passing on the cases of tobacco fac
tories accused of being surreptitiously
in league with the American Tobacco
company, but using the union label.
The committee decided to take the
union label from sixty or seventy of
these factories.

graphical affairs, as well as every man
who was charter member at the time
the union was organized.
The disposition of the membership
is to celebrate the unions silver ami
versary in a manner BETTING the oc-
casion and its place as the leading
trade organization in the city, and il
the spirit manifested at the meeting
when the subject was introduced is
any criterion, the event will be one in
which the membership may well take
pride.
The Wageworker hopes that every
man belonging to the union will take
hold of the enterprise and boost it to
successful and glorious consumation,
for it will, if properly carried out, be n
big thing for the organization and will
materially advance the interests of the
union in more ways than one.
Let us all push to make the silver
anniversary celebration something the
people will not forget in a hurry.

HAMILTON IN TOWN.
Federation Organizer Come to Town
To GIVE Things a Boost.

NJ Grant Hamilton, general organ
izer of the American Federation, ar
rived in Lincoln Wednesday to take
glance over the local situation and
lend what assistance he could in tight
ening up the lines. This is not Ham
ilton's first visit to Lincoln by any
means. In 1887 he was initiated into
Lincoln Typographical Union. He
still carries his union card, of course,
and he rather likes to point to the
fact that he joined the union in Lin
coin. For several years he has been
a Federation organizer and has been
wonderfully successful in his work.

while in the Wageworker Office. 1T

POINTER FOR SOME DRUGGIST.
A Little Scheme Whereby He Can Win
Trade Of Union Men.


1t is reported generally that it is
almost impossible to find trust-made
cigar in the city of Danbury, Conn.
It is further reported that druggists
throughout the east are rapidly dis
continuing the handling of trust-made
cigars and throwing out the stands of
the National Cigar company.
And that reminds us that some Lin
coin druggist could make a ten-strike
by disseminating the sale of all brands
of non-union cigars and handling only
cigars that come in boxes with blue
labels attached thereto. By doing
this, and making the fact widely
known among union men-not men
who carry union cards, but genuine
union men-that store could work up

time capture the drug trade of these

Of
FEE DOUBTED

There is possibility that all of
the candidates who paid the 10
per cent filing fee fixed by the di-
rect law may be able to recover the
coin If they want 1t.
One of the points raised yester-
day by Judge Richardson in sup
porting the socialist contention
against the filing fee is that the
provision grading the fling fee &C
cording to the emoluments Of the
Office aspired to Is illegal He show
ed that no possible service could be
returned for the fee and cited con-
stitutional authority to support his
argument. The theory applies
equally to all losing candidates.
However. Judge PoindeXter is
sued the writ directing the city
clerk to place the socialist NOM
inees on the official ballot by rea-
son of technical defect in the
title of the act, another point
raised by the applicants. The law
purports to be a statute governing
the primary election and attempts
also to regulate the printing of bal
lots. The latter process is pro-
vided for in another law The rul-
ing amounts to decision that as
the socialists were not permitted to
take part in the primary election
they may not be taxed a proper
ton of the expense of that cleo
ton.
The points raised by the So
cialists against the new law were
practically admitted yesterday by

One of the important issues in
this campaign is the attitude OF Mr..
Daggett and his friends toward
labor, and the attitude of Mr.. Moore
and his friends toward labor? We
know what Mr.. Daggett has done.
He built the water works by day
labor. He is friendly to the labor
ing man. He believes in paying
good wages. He believes that the
citizens of Spokane who work with
their hands should have the first
opportunity to be employed upon
public work. He believes in the
S-hour day and has in all public
work enforced the law in this re-
gard. He believes that good wages
paid to Spokane workmen will be
spent in Spokane stores and build
up our city. He has endeavored
to have our new bridges built by
day labor. In this he was support
ed by the Democratic council; but
Messrs. Phillips. Estep, Horn and
Stimmel, Republican councilmen,
and Mr. Pratt Review pet, monde
script councilman and would-be Re-
publican, have prevented the pass
age of any ordinance providing that
in the erection of the new bridges,
day labor should be employed. The
records of the council show this:
The Review. that arch-enemy OF the
laboring man, has consistently
abused and reviled the Democrats
because of, and specifically on &C
count of, their friendship for the
laboring man. 1t is better far to
trust man who has proven his
friendship for labor. than to guess
what another one, yet untried, will
do. Mr.. Moore has the support of
every enemy of organized labor in
the city of Spokane. Is there a
working man in the city who be-
lieves that there is within its
limits one enemy to organized labor
who will cast his ballot for Mr.
Daggett: Is there, among all the
leaders of organized labor. a single
man who is not with Mr.. Daggett
and against Mr.. Moore. DR.. Byrne.
known as the Labor mayor" of
Spokane. elected once by the labor
vote and coming near it again by
the same vote as an independent
candidate. is out for Mr.. Daggett.
He heartily endorsed him at the
Democratic rally. Would he be for
to labor? Remember that every
person unfriendly to labor will,
upon that question, promise any
generalities-anything to get the
labor vote. But. remember that
Mr. Dagget has kept each and every
promise made TO labor. Remember
too. that in the Democratic platform
the planks prepared by the officers
of organized labor We're adopted
and remember that in the Repub
lican platform the municipal light
iuS pant palm has bceu UlduSltu
until its author would not recognize
1t. and the arbitration plank was
absolutely refused any recognition
whatever. This campaign means
more than a principle to the labor
ing man. 1t means more than a
choice of mayors. 1t means that
if Mr.. Daggett is elected. that every
laboring man working upon city con
struction and elsewhere. will re.
ceive dollars more for his months
labor than if Mr., Moore is elected
Let every working man in the city
vote for that candidate who will put
dollars and cents into the pockets
