LABOR TEMPLE DIRECTORS.
First Meeting Of New Board Transacts
Lot of Business

First Meeting Of New Board Transacts
a Lot Of Business.
The new board Of directors of the
Labor Temple Association met at the
Temple Monday evening and proceed
ed to elect board of seven trustees,
as provided by the law governing the
association. The following were
elected.
S. l.. Chaplin, president.
G. A. Walker, vice president.
Fred Ihringer, secretary.
r. c. Fox, treasurer.
Louis Hale.
w. l.. Mayer.
Fred Vaughn.
Hereafter the board of directors
will meet once a month, on the fourth
Monday night. The board of trustees
will later decide on how often to
meet. Hereafter the trustees will per
form the bulk of the work, the direc
tors acting in an advisory and over
seeing capacity.
w. l.. Mayer was employed as as
sistant to Manager Rudy at salary
of SIG a week. Both Manager Rudy
and Assistant Mayer are members OF
| the Electrical Workers.
Mr.. Mayer was allowed a salary oi
| $4S for three weeks work as assistant
taking the same in stock, the services
having been performed prior to the

Announcement was made that the

230 shares of stock, and had trans

unions of the city. alloting ten shares
| to each union.
j. C.. Harpham, who purchased 10(
shares of stock, has transferred the

LABOR TEMPLE BENEFIT.
Manager German Of the Lyric Make
Tender Of His Theatre.

tSuUCT " nCdlTCs
Manager German of the Lyric has
on more than one occasion shown his
friendship for organized labor. For
that reason it was no surprise when
he called up Manager Rudy of the
Temple and said
Can l help your Temple along by
giving benefit performance"
We'll, l should say so!' exclaimed
Manager Rudy.
"All right, then. Call it Monday
evening. January II. You have the
boys sell as many tickets as they can.
and we'll divide the receipts half and
half. How does that suit?"
Bully" said Manager Rudy
And thus it was arranged. The per-
formance will be by. the Lyric Stock
Company, headed by Mr.. Horace V.
Noble and Miss Louise Carter, and this
means a performance that will please
all who attend. The Lyric Stock Com
pany has fixed itself firmly in the af-
fections of Lincoln playgoers. j
Unionists interested in boosting the
Temple project along are requested
to cali on Manager Rudy and get some
tickets, and then hustle out and sell
them. The tickets are eXchangeable
at the box office for the regular re-
served seat coupon tickets.
Now let's get busy and pack the
Lyric until the police authorities in
terefere.

THE TEMPLES DOORS.

There sens to be an opinion preva-
lent that the Labor Temple is for
union men and women only. and that
non-unionists are not wanted there.
II such an opinion does exist it Is ut
terly without foudation, for the union
men and women whose work has re-
suited in the opening of the Temple
want the non-unionists to make the
Temple their headquarters. If there
is non-union mechanic in Lincoln
who imagines that he will not be well
come to the Temple, let him go there,
announce himself and await results.
The Wageworker will warrant him
that he will receive a cordial welcome,
and will be treated exactly as the
union visitors are treated. But there
Is every chance that he will be asked
to join the union of his craft and
given ample reasons why he should
do so. The Temple was built for edu-
cational purposes as much as anything
else.
Not all non-unionists are "scabs."
Not by n great deal. A majority of
non-unionists are outside the union
fold because they have never had an
opportunity of studying trades union
principles and have never had an op-
the benefits of unionism Union men
are largely to blame for the fact that
a large percentage of workingmen are
not members of the unions of their
craft. They are to blame because
they have not acted as missionaries,
carrying the glad tidings of industrial
salvation into the waste places. Union
men are to blame If the general pub
lie has n wrong conception of union
ism, for union men have not under
taken to Offset the false and mislead-
ing stories set afioat by subsidized
newspapers.
BY all means, Mr.. Non-Union Man,
make the Labor Temple your head
quarters. If you can stand out against
the arguments presented by men who
know by experience what the benefits
OF unionism are, you are certainly.
blind to your own welfare. Or If you
can show us wherein we are wrong
in forming unions. we'll be much
obliged. But. anyhow, make the La
Dor Temple your headquarters. You
will be as welcome as the flowers in
spring.

THE STATE FEDERATION.

The Nebraska State Federation of
Labor starts out on what is really it's
hrst year under the most favorable
auspices. The convention at South
Omaha was a splendid one in every
respect, and the delegates demon
strated their earnestness in the work
OF the organization. In Frank M. Cof-
fey the Federation has an executive
who has had wide experience in the
work OF organization, experience In
legislative work. and legal ability OF
a high order. His unanimous election
to the presidency was not only high
tribute to his standing in the labor
movement, but was an evidence of the
good Judgment of the organization
The reelection of Secretary-Treasurer
Hart was matter of course, for Mr.
Hart has conducted the affairs of that
important Office with diligence and
earnestness.
The legislative committee, the most
important committee of the organiza
tion, Is made up of staunch trades
unionists who know the needs of the
workers and also know the best ways
OF securing the recognition of those
needs through legislative action.
1t is regrettable that number of
organizations, some of them sadly in
need OF just such enlivening Influences
as Will be exerted by the State Fed
Grafton, have failed or refused to af-
fihate. But in due time these organi-
zations will realize the folly of their
neglect and will make amends by
coming into the organization and ex-
erting themselves to make up for lost
time

was honored by election to the presi.

fected, feels that he has a right to be

ITS FOURTEENTH YEAR.

The Minnesota Union Advocate, ed
tied and published by Cornelius Gui-
ney Of st. Paul, has just entered upon
it's fourteenth volume. During the
thirteen years of it's existence the
Union Advocate has steadily improved,
both as an exponent of unionism and
as paying proposition to its tireless
editor and publisher. There are no
stronger advocates of unionism than
the Minnesota Union Advocate. 1t is
always full of good stuff" and the
opinions of it's genial editor always
carry weight The Wageworker eX-
tends congratulations to Brother
Quincy. and wishes for him and his
splendid paper many more years of
usefulness in the cause of organized
labor.

ANOTHER NEW ONE.

r. E. Woodmansee, editor and pub
Usher of the Springfield, ILL.,. Trades
man, seems to be yearning for a repu7
tation as the octopus of the labor
paper game" He has just started his
fourth labor paper, this time at Joliet.
1t will be called the Labor Review and
will be under the immediate charge of
p. S. DeMaris, who was formerly asso-
ciated with the Tradesman as busi-
ness manager. Brer Woodmansee
knows the game from start to finish,
and the unionists of Joliet will. If
they know good thing when they see
it, rally to the support of the Review.

The Musicians Union, No. 463, in

The twenty-seventh annual ball of
Lincoln Typographical Union No. 209,
will be held at Fraternity hall on Feb
ruray 90. Committees from the union
and Capital Auxiliary are now work
ing together to make it the most sue
cessful social event in the history of
the union. The net proceeds of the
ball will be invested in stock of the
Labor Temple Association, and this
fact is calculated to make the attend
ance larger than usual.
Nothing will be left undone that
will contribute to the pleasure of the
annual event. and the reputation the
printers have achieved for success
along social lines will be more than
duplicated.
