The Bartenders are feeling just
a little bit puffed up over the fact
that their unions representative on
the Labor Temple committee has thus
far turned in more cash subscriptions
to the Temple Fund than any other
committeeman. They declare that in
proportion to numbers they are go
ing to make the best showing OF any
union in the city when the final ac-
counting is made.

Both Attendance and Interest Grow
ing at a Gratifying Rate.
The Central Labor Union held its
regular meeting at Bruse's hall last
Tuesday eening. The attendance was
somewhat larger than usual, and the
interest showed a healthy increase.
The body adopted a resolution call
ing upon the American Federation of
Labor to provide an organizer for
this territory, the same having been
previously adopted by the Fremont
Central Labor Union. There are now
four central bodies in Nebraska-Lin-
coin, Omaha, Fremont and Beatrice

officials will be urged to assist i'll
thoroughly organizing the state and
also forming state federation.
The central body also adopted reso-
lutions of sympathy and support for
the striking printers in Fremont, and
protested against the appointment OF
Ross L. Hammond to the position OF
collector Of internal revenue. These
resolutions will DE sent to the Ne

LABOR TEMPLE COMMITTEE.
Feeling Fine Over the Support Ac-

corded the Temple Project.
The members OF the Labor Temple
committee are feeling bully these fine
October days. They are going around
with their chests stuck out and their
chins high in the air, and all because
their efforts to push the Temple pro-
ject are being heartily seconded by
the union men of the community.
The committee met last Monday
night at 127 North Twelfth street,
the following committeeman being
present:
j. w. Dickson. Carpenters.
Fred Ihringer, Typographical.
@. M. Rudy, Electrical Workers.
Fred Ress, Bookbinders.
Alex Weckesser, Pressmen.
A. v. White, Plumbers.
s. L. Chaplin, BARRIERS.
T. w. Nvans, Cigarmakers.
The committee appointed to "snoop"
around for suitable sites made good
report, and several fine locations were
submitted, together with prices and
terms. OF course the committee will
not presume to select site, but will
leave that to the decision of the
stockholders in the association when
the proper time comes. But the com.
mittee wants to have everything in
readiness to submit to the stockhold-
ers so that they may be fully in
formed.
The work of mailing out the blank
applications for stock is going
briskly forward, and by the first of
the month fully 5000 local unions will
have been asked to invest in the en-
terprise.
The committee on buttons reported
action at its next meeting.

The site committee was continued
with instructions to keep on look

GETTING WISE.

The trade union of garment workers
in England and the masters employ
ing trade union labor have favorably
considered the suggestion to fight the
sweating system by union label to
be affixed to ali garments made under
fair conditions.

NOTE THIS FACT.

1t is matter of record that not
one single trades union in Lincoln
ever violated contract entered into
with an employer. 1t is matter of
very recent record that an employer
violated a contract entered into with a
trades union.

THE PREssMEN ENJoiNED.
Legally Allowed to Breathe. and That

Legally Allowed to Breathe, and That
is About All at Present.
The temporary Injunction against
the melting Of strike by the inter-
national pressmen's union for an
eight-hour day was made permanent
last Monday by United States Judge
Thompson at Cincinnati, who held
that such action on the part 2of the
union officials would be a breaking OF
valid conthact
The Injunction was sought by the
united typothetae of America and Ger
tain publishing concerns In New York,
Chicago, st. Louis and Massachusetts
to prevent the defendants, officers and
members of the presmen's union from
melting and Carrying on strike.
which has in effect the breaking Of
contract entered into last May and
running until January /. 1912. Ac-
cording to this contract the pressmen
were to have a nine-hour day until
January 1, 1909, when the eiehthour
day was to go into effect, but the I'M
ion has demanded the immediate ac-
ceptance of the eight-hour day.
When the case was argued ten days
ago the defendants raised the ques-
ton Of jurisdiction and the complaints
moved to amend the petition In GER
tain respects to eliminate parties not
indispensable to the suit, which mo
tion was sustained today, the court
holding that it had the jurisdiction In
the case. The demand BY the inter
national union officers for an eight
hour day prior to the date agreed on
was violative to their contract was
the opinion Of the court, but he said
the men as individuals could not be
enjoined from striking.
One Of the points sought by the Pc
tition was to enjoin the paying OF
strike benefits. The attorneys for the
union pleaded for the benehciaries OF
the strike fund, but the court sus-
tanned the petition and the Injunction
as issued forbids the payment Of
strike benefits or any action by the
officers of the union that would In
cite strike in contravention to the
contract.
Lincoln pressmen are watching the
outcome with interest, of course.
They have not heard directly from the
international officials since the inJunc-
ton was issued. A5strike order would
have but little effect In lincoln. as
a majority OF the pressmen are al
ready working the eight hour day. al
though there is no regularly signed
| contract to that effect.
I'VE are very much obliged to Judge
Thompson for giving US permission to
strike as individuals" said press
man after he had read tho order. He
could just as well have denied US the
right to quit work long enough to eat :
