CHARACTERISTIC UNTRUTH.

One of the curious things about this
campaign is the appeal made for votes
against the saloon on behalf of the la
boring men, while at the same time
the saloon arguments are being cir
culated all over town in the official
organ of these same workers.-State
Journal.
Is it impossible for the advocates of
prohibition to be truthful in their ref
erences to those who differ from them ?
1t would seem so. Organized labor has
no official organ" in Lincoln. The
only official organs" that Lincoln
unions have are the journals published
by their internationals.
The Wageworker is very proud to
say that is is not the official organ
of any organization nor of anybody
but the humble gentleman who edits
it and who jumps sideways to pay the
bills for it's maintenance. 1t is mere.
ly supporter of industrial organi
Zation, and aims to be labor news
paper that will be of interest to union
men and women.
But organized labor has no official
organ" in Lincoln. The Wageworker
under it's present ownership would not
submit to being SO classed.
The wageworker. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1904-????, 1908-04-04

ter-socially, morally and otherwise
il present policies are continued, it is
opposed to experimenting and is there
fore opposed to the farce of prohibit
ton. 1t cares not jot nor little for
the arguments about taxes. 1t cares
nothing about the personal lib
erty" arguments. 1t has not thought
it necessary to delve into industrial
statistics. 1t has merely studied the
facts as they relate to ultimate bene-
fit of the community. If this is sell
ing out" to the liquor interests, all
right. The Wageworker has not re-
ceived, nor will it receive, one penny,
nod any number of pennies-or
dollars-for any editorial or local story
in connection with this prohibition
fight Its columns have been just as
free to the prohibitionists as to the
representatives of the other side of
that vexed question-and one of the
leading prohibitionists has taken adj
vantage of it to the extent of some
seven or eight columns.
You will have an opportunity to de-
eide the matter with your vote next
Tuesday. The only advice The Wage
worker will venture to give you is that
you make your vote represent your
honest convictions after honest investi-
cation, not the result of baseless the
DRY, sentimentality, hysteria or fanat-
icism.

The Secret.

The Secret.
Twas tn funniest thing, and the way
we laughed
AS we sat there all alone,
we're daft
If the truth were not made known.
But the baby laughed cause she saw
it first,
And she shook her sides with glee;
And then the fun of it quickly burst
On her old Dad-that's me.
The way it happened was just this
way:
Baby and l were there,
She in the crib on the pillows lay,
in my easy chair.
The warm sun shone in the cosy room
And lighted the baby's face
Till it looked as pure as the lily's
bloom.
Fair as the lily's grace
The baby looked at her dad while,
Her blue eyes full of fun,
And over her face little smile
Rippled and broke and run.
Dad smiled right back-she smiled
some more
Then both shook with glee;
And mamma peeped in at the open
door
To see what the fun might be-
But the baby holds the secret we'll
Never word says she.
The joke was bully, and she wont tell; ;
And neither will Dad-that's me.
But. o. twas a wonderful joke we
had,
just shared between we two,
Baby Blue Eyes and her Doting Dad
And don't you wish you knew?
