PRESSMEN IN LINE.
Associated Press Failed to Carry I'M

1t transpires that the Associated
Press failed to carry one important
bit of news that had it's source at the
Mobile convention of the International
Printing Pressmen and Assistants.
Union. The convention by an unani-
nous vote decided to follow the po-
litical plan outlined by the American
Federation of Labor-but the Asso-
ciated Press overlooked that important
item of business.
The convention did not pledge its
membership to any candidate Or plat

A. F. of L. plan-boost political
friends and knock political enemies.
II is not difficult to understand how
the pressmen view this matter. They
very recently had an experience with
injunctions. After accommodating a
strike fund, as Mr.. Taft now says they
had perfect right to- do, they were
enjoined from paying strike benefits,

Printers Rush Through a Lot Of I'm

President lngraham took the bit In
his teeth at the meeting of the Typo
graphical Union last Sunday after
noon, and rushed the work of the
meeting in manner that pleased the
bunch nightly. After attending to
the routine work some special mat
tiers were taken up. The name OF
William J. Bryan was proposed as an
honorary member of No. 209, and on
ballot the same was accepted. A lit
tie argument ensued before the bal
lot. but instead of being in the nature
of opposition to Mr.. Bryan, as stated
by a partisan newspaper, it was mere

vote was practically unanimous.
Immediately after making Mr.
Bryan an honorary member the name

Railroad Employees
Now Organized

The Protective Association, organ
lied by the railway employees of Ne
braska, Is now in running order and
is already getting results along the
lines mapped out. The purpose or
the organization is to oppose legisla-
ton that will result in a decreased
wage scale.
AS was to be expected certain
newspapers having axes to grind
denounced the association, claiming
that it was engineered by the rail-
way managers, who used the en-
p:oyes to portect extortionate freight
rates. This gratuitous insult to a
great body of Industrious workers has
been resented. Chairman Macomber
of Omaha is something of a writer
himself. and he has more than held
his own in the newspaper discussions
he has had with those who charge
that the association is a political club
fashioned for the use of the railway
magnates.
Just why the railroad employees
should be charged with dishonesty
when they organize to protect their
bread and butter factory is a ques-
ton. Men in every other line Of in
dustry organize for that very purpose.
The boot and shoe workers are al
ways boosting for the factories that
use the union stamp, but to date not
even the most enthusiastic railroad
batting newspaper has charged the
boot and shoe workers with being
dishonest in trying to foster their en-
p1oyers' business.
The question of freight rates is not
one for newspapers to decide. That
is a matter that should be left to
the eminent doctors and country law
years and discharged station agents
who have been selected for the work
and guaranteed excellent salaries.
The railroad employees know full well
that decreased revenues mean de-
creased wages-the question of rates
and dividends being allowed to wait
while the lower wages continue with
out interruption. 1t is therefore only
natural that the railroad employees
should object to legislation that is
bound to result in decreased wages,
ard the newspaper that charges them
with being dishonest or cOerced
merely makes laughing stock of

Decorating Next Week.
Next Wednesday morning ought to
find Lincoln the handsomest city in
America in point of festal decorations.
Candor compels the statement that
when it comes to decorating in honor
Of big events Lincoln is far behind
the average country village. A few
flags, some of the very cheapest cot
ton bunting and bunch or two of
colored tissue paper-and that is
about the best that Lincoln has ever
offered in decorations.
1t is safe to say that the cost Of
decorating one Of the big blocks in
Denver during convention week was
greater than Lincoln as a city ever
spent on anyone occasion-and possi-
bly, two occasions

semi-Annuai Election Of Officers Due
Next Tuesday Evening.
The meeting of the Central Labor
Union next Tuesday evening will he
cne of the most important of the
year, that being the occasion of the
semi-annual election of officers. The
central body has been doing some
good work of late, but the work has
been hampered somewhat by the neg
ligence of delegates. Under the su.
pervision of the organizations orga.
nizer, T.. G. Kelsey, two new unions
have been organized during the last
six months, and one of them has re
ceived it's charter. The other one will
be in shape soon to apply for its
charter, and still another one is in
process of formation. If the various
locals of the city will see to it that
the delegates they appoint attend to
their duties there is no reason why
several other unions should not be
organized, and some of those now in
existence strengthened If the Cen
tral Labor Union has not accomplished
great deal it is due to the. fact that
the delegates elected have been care
less and negligent.
The officers of q local have most
to do with the successful prosecution
Of that locals work, and the same is
true of central body representing all
the locals. For this reason every
delegate should be present at the
meeting next Tuesday evening and
sec to it that the best men are Sc
lected to manage the central body's
affairs during the next six months.

chairman and w. C. Norton secretary
treasurer.
The first business was to listen to
the report OF the. committee, appointed
to wait on the Capital Beach manage
ment and ascertain what terms could
be secured from that amusement re-
sort. Chairman Peate made the re-
port for the committee. In brief i.
Is as follows:
One-half the gate receipts to be
given the Labor Day committee, ten
cents to be the admission fee, after
noon and evening.
The Beach management will fur

Due diligence will be used to secure

mitted on the grounds, and any per
son under the influence of liquor who
enters the grounds will be elected
1t was unanimously decided to ac
cept the proposition and the commit
tee was instructed to have a contract
drawn up and properly signed. The
committee was also continued as q
grounds committee, and will have su
pervision on Labor Day.
A motion was made to have al

to play the game square. On August
u Mr.. Bryan will be formally mott
fled of his nomination, and the Mas
sachusetts member of the notification
committee is Humphrey O'Sullivan,
the rubber heel man." Every union
printer in the United States ana
Canada knows Humphrey O'Sullivan,
but perhaps some other union men
do not. Something like twenty five
years ago O'Sullivan was an active
member of the Typographical Union,
but he quit the business to push a
little invention of his own-the rubber
heel. His invention was a success,
and O'Sullivan made more money than
he could haul in a hay wagon. But
printers ink once on the hand never

ishes fond reco1lections of the old
days. So it was that when the eight
hour fight began O'Sullivan decided to
get back into the game. He went
before the Lowell (Mass.) union and
said: Boys, want to have hand
in winning this eight-hour fight, so
put me back on the active list so l
can pay dues and assessments. He
! declined the offer to get back on pay
ment of the initiation fee, and in
sisted on paying up all back dues and
assessments, amounting to several
hundred dollars. Then he gave
Lowell union check for big sum,
"just to help it win its fight" and

delegate to Colorado Springs. More
than that, he withdrew all of his ad-
vertising from the unfair" publica-
tions, and O'Sullivan's advertising
counts to something like $15O,OOO a
year.
| Now you begin to understand why
the Lincoln printers sat up and took
notice when they learned that Hum
phrey O'Sullivan was coming to Lin

appreciation of his friendship, and a
committee was appointed to arrange
for something on the occasion of
his visit. The committee consists of

rapidly discovering that the Sunday
Magazine of THE CHICAGO RECORD
HERALD is not only areal magazine bat
also one of the greatest in this age of
magazines. its recent display of enter
prise in paying $25, 900 for the exclusive
serial rights of Conan Doyle's new
romance. "Sir Nigel" mpelled even
the editors of the famous monthlies to
acknowledge the presence of new and
powerful rival.
When this was followed by Anthony
Hopes new Zendan romance, "Sophy
of Kravonia," the reading world needed
no further proof that the Sunday maya
zine of THE RECORD HERALD was able
to capture che finest and most costly
new fiction offered in England and
America. Its illustrations and cover
designs in color have from the begin
ming been of unsurpassed beauty and
artistic grace. It's short stories, des-
criptive articles, humor, poetry and
sketches of all kinds are the choicest
that the literary market affords, many
of them being written by the most
popular authors and magazine contrib
utors in the United States. In short, it
is an entertaining, high class magazine
that will bear comparison gith the best
independent weeklies or monthlies,
whatever the pr.ce.
There is nothing else like it in Amer
