Amounts Already Pledged.

! Many thousand dollars have already
been raised or subscribed to the George
| Washington memorial fund. Several New
York financiers have pledged large
amounts. the scientific societies of Wash
ington have pledged 100000, and a larger
amount is expected from the national or
ganzation with which these societies are
affiliated.
Mrs. Dimock, at Atlanta. is receiving
pledges of cooperation She has met
Gov. Brown and has made arrangements
for large public meeting in the capital
city of Georgia.
Similar pledges of support and cam
paigns in the interests Of the George
| Washington memorial building have been
started in New York, Boston, Mass; Au-
gusta, Ga, and other cities of the coun-
| try.
| The plan of the association is to erect a
large memorial hall, to be used as a head
quarters and assembly place for national.
patriotic, scientific, educational and other
societies. The large auditorium is also
to be used for the inaugural balls and for
international congresses.
The building Is to cost $1,000 600. An
additional 100000 is to be raised as an
endowment fund with which to meet the
running expenses, so that the building
may be used free Of charge.
Plans of Building Drawn.
|
| the Smithsonian Institution, a member
of the advisory council of the memorial
association, has already drawn tentative
plans for the memorial building. The
immense auditorium will be so erected
that by the use of sliding partitions it
| can be divided into several smaller ones,
| so that two or more conventions may be
| held in the building at the same time.
The following note has been sent out
to those WHO haye been asked to become

White House Neutral.

1t was the utterance from the White
House this week, however, that really
seemed worth while. President Taft's
statement that he would not decide the
issue of the Fairmont and Clarksburg
postmasterships until after the Scott
Hubbard senatorial contest ended, lest
he be considered taking sides. meant
that Postmasters Fleming and Denham,
respectively. would continue indefinitely
at. their posts, despite Representative
Hubbard's wish for their removal
President Taft's decision is regarded
as an indirect victory for Senator Scott
and the Hubbard people do not con-
ceal their discontinue. There was
also a question of veraeity raised be-
tween the President and ex-Gov. Daw-
son. Some days previously the 'Presi-
den had Dawson and Representatives
Sturgiss and Hubbard to lunch with him.
Following the visit Dawson declared
enphaticaIly that the post office issue
was not discussed. The presidential
declaration subsequently. however. is
that Dawson urged the deposition of
Denham, on the ground that he was
legislative lobbyist
This statement has certainly not added
to the Dawson standing. When Daw-
son was appointed associate counsel in
the Virginia debt litigation much oppo-
sition was aroused, on the ground that
he was simply getting good berth,
for his qualification as lawyer were
not known or accredited generally, in
asmuch as he has never practiced law,
and the growing anxiety that West Vir-
ginia is due to pay millions to the hold
ers OF the Virginia certificates has
somewhat impaired confidence i'll the
former governor.
The two candidates so far announced
for legislative nomination in the kanawha
district declare that they will vote for the
reelection of Senator Scott. Senator Blue
of Barbour, candidate for reelection, is
also for Scott.
Senator Scott this week asked the Ohio
county republican committee to hold a
primary at the earliest date after the
legal limit May 10, suggesting May IL
as the date His suggestion will be acted
on. This county is the home of both can
didates. May "a Hubbard and Scott will
be voted for at state senatorial primaries
i'm the Parkersburg and Buckhannon dis
tricts. Their names will be put on the
ballots and the one receiving the majority
will be considered to have received an in
dorsement obligatory on the legislative
nominees. The Scott men are extremely
optimistic in those districts.
May rs primary with similar intent
will be held in Monongaiia county. The
county seat is Morgantown, an anti-or-
ganlzation center, and SCOTS chances
there are not considered to be good. There
is decided sentiment there against Sena-
tor Elkins, which rebounds on Scott, and
it is the home also of Representative
Sturgiss. Hubbard man. In fact, 1t is
the only county which the Scott people
publicly eoncede to be d----cult fighting

THE FRESHMEN.
Putting Up Splendid Campaign for the
Allied Printing Trades Label.

Ailleo printing IraoeS Label.
Just now the Freshmen are bear
ing the brunt of the fight for the al
lied printing trades label, and they
are doing it with success. The COM
mittee in charge loses sleep when
ever necessary to get in boost, and
the result of it's work is being felt in
all directions. The scheme to drive
the label out of Lincoln has been
pretty eeffctually blocked but the
Pressmen are entitled to lot more
help than they are getting.
While it is true that four of the
big shops, North, Woodruff Collins,
State Journal and Mccartney, con-
tinue unfair, it is equally true that
the Pressmen are faring well. De-
spite the lockout the local has more
men working under fair conditions
than ever before, and the membership
has increased. This speaks in splen-
did terms of the fighting qualities of
the Freshmen.
1t was in no, wise the fault of the
Pressmen that the fiasco concerning
the baseball score cards was pulled
off. The Pressmen were ready to stand
pat, but their natural allies back

his work to address the central body.
This he did, and made short address
that was listened to with interest and
profit.
DR.. Aylesworth demonstrated early
in his talk that he was in hearty sym
pathy with the aims of organized ia
Dor, and stated in emphatic terms his
belief that during the last quarter of
a century all that has stood between
the republic and despotism was the
rank and file of organized workers.
His severe criticism of President Taft
was tempered somewhat by the speak
ers' acknowledgement that he had
voted for Taft, but he insisted that
this fact gave him the right to speak
in criticism. He said that Taft's for
ty-ninth mistake in fifteen months was
made when he intimated that If WON
en- were given the ballot only undesir-
able women would vote. He was gro
titled that there were some good wom-
en- brave enough to hiss the remark.
Dr. Aylesworth related some of his
experiences while fighting with the
striking shirtwaist makers in New
York last winter, and he used them
as arguments in favor of equal suf-
frage. Women who are compelled 20
enter the industrial field are entitlsd
to the ballot that they may safeguard
their labor. His expose of rotten
ness and corruption in Denver was
interesting in the extreme, and he
paid organized labor tribute for the
way it backed up the efforts of Judge
Ben Lindsay to purge Denver and
Colorado of political corruption. The
speakers argument in favor of equal
suffrage was convincing, but the ar.
| gument was scarcely needed, as or.
ganized labor is on record as favoriue
it.
The Labor Chautauqua committee
reported what it had done, but insist
| ed that the committee had gone as
| far as it could until the workers
showed their willingness to help along
by putting up their good money.
Other committees reported, and the
decision of the state railway commits
sion in the Traction co. case was dis
cussed and "cussed'' at some length
A committee was appointed to assist
the street railway men in their eff
forts to organize.

CHIEF OF POLICE MALONE.

Now Reads His Title Clear After Year
Of Faithful Service.
Last Wednesday the excise board
conferred upon James Malone the ii
tie Of chief of police. For year Ma
lone has been acting chief, and in
recognition of faithful and efficient
service he was given the position in
fact as well as in name.
In making the appointment the ex-
else board was unanimous, and it paid
a deserved tribute to a most efficient
officer. 1t is no reflection upon other
good police chiefs to say that Chief
Malone has made the best police head
the city has ever had. Under his man.
agement the force is better disciplined
the city is better policed, the public
more courteously treated and public
order maintained in greater degree
than ever before. The Wageworker
congratulates the mayor and 9th ,r
members of the excise board upon
their action and Chief Malone upon
his deserved promotion.

THE MUSICIANS.
A Little Note or Two About the Boys
Who Furnish Music.


The Council Bluffs Musical Union
has surrendered it's charter and the
membership taken into the ranks Of
the Omaha local. Hereafter the thirty
union musicians of the Bluffs will car
ry Omaha cards. When the Bluffs
charter was surrendered there was
enough money in the treasury to pay
the initiation of every member into
the Omaha local, and give each mem
Der a little dividend of SIT.
H. F. McGurren, leading member
of the Lincoln local, is now located
at Creighton, Neb. Mr.. McGurren
will be greatly missed from the IN
ion ranks of Lincoln, for he was an
active worker. He represented the
Musicians Union on the board of
directors of the Labor Temple ald
also in the Central Labor Union. His
host of Lincoln friends will wish him
abundant success in his new location.
