ribee shop has had generous patronage
from the State Journal force, but it
is now up to the unionists in that
establishment to show Larribee where
he got off.
Of course if one union shop was
allowed to remain open until $3.50 it
wouldn't be Ions until every union
shop demanded the same right, and
as A result the shorter work day for
which the men have struggled so long
to gain would be lost. And the strug-
gle has been too long and too hard
to abandon now.
1t is a sad fact, too, that a lot of
men who claim to be union men are
in the habit of dropping into non-union
shops for tonsorial work. This is
especially true of railroad brotherhood
men, but is by no means confined to
that class of organized workers. The
genuine union man will make sure
that the shop card adorns the wall
before he gets into the chair.

fore Being Reported.
House Roll No. II, tie Sink bill limit
ing freight trains to fifty cars and
providing for an extra brakeman on
all trains over twenty-five cars in
length, was shot all to pieces in COM
mittee last Monday night. The rail
road managers had their representa-
tives out in force to fight the bill,
claiming that it would paralyze them.
OF course they found several en-
ployes to take their side. of the case.
And several members of the commit
tee couldn't understand why it was
that brakemen who favored the bill
bers and say so. AS reported the bill
means little or nothing for the pro-
lection of the train crews.
But there will be something doing
yet. A bill differing in it's terms but
providing some further measure of
protection to the train crews will be
introduced in the senate and pushed.
The Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen
is keeping a couple of good scouts"

business it is to take care of Thea in

The Independent Order of Carpen-
tiers is a bunch of "scab' carpenters
who have formed union of non-union
men-whatever that may mean. 1t is
an organization Of men who haven't
got nerve enough to refuse to do the
bidding of the employers. There is
or was-a branch of this non-union
union at Kansas City, and thirty-two
of it's members were employed on ST.
Mary's hospital by contractor named
Casey. These non-union unionists are
no longer so employed. Contractor
Casey was. approached and properly
convinced where his interests were,
and as a result the thirty-two non-
union unionists were given their time
and the path over the hot sands of
the desert pointed out. They went,
and as they departed thirty-two real
union carpenters camped on the job.
Since the Lincoln local began meet
ing in real hall the attendance has
increased, and the interest has been
more than doubled.

Organizer Fay in Lincoln and Putting
New Life in the Work.
When General President Alpine was
in Lincoln last December he promised
the union plumbers of Lincoln that
he would send an organizer here
shortly after the first of the year.
If there is anything President Alpine
prides himself on it is keeping his
promise. And. his promise to the
Lincoln local was carried out when
week and Immediately began the work
Of building up the organization.
Mr.. Fay will not find smooth sailing
nor did he expect it. But he has gone
UP against lots harder propositions
and won out, and neither he nor the
faithful members have any doubt
about the favorable outcome of the
present campaign. The work is well
in hand and Organizer Fay is receiv-
ing every assistar ce possible. Already
the good effects are being felt. Sew
eral applications for membership were
acted on at the meeting Wednesday
evening, and there are a lot more in
sight. Working conditions will be
improved, and the organization will
| be strengthened in many ways.
When asked how long he expected to
remain in Lincoln Mr.. Fay replied
Until am no longer needed" That's
the sort of spirit that accomplishes
results.
