THE ClGARMAkERS
Enjoy Short Visit From Financial
AGENT Campbell of Chicago.

~ A. Campbell OF Chicago, auditor
of the Cigarmakers' international I'm
ion, was in Lincoln one day last week,
and while here audited the books of
the local union. He found them cor
rect to penny. After visiting the
Labor Temple Mr.. Campbell declared
that the unionists of this community
had a right to be proud of it, and
said that he would take pleasure in
telling the unionists of other cities all
about it.
At it's next meeting the local union
will have to vote upon five proposed
amendments to the constitution One
has to do with the punishment of fis-
cal officers who go wrong; another
has to do with the manner of calling
strikes; another calls for a special
assessment to assist a member aff1ict-
ed with locomoter ataxia. Owing to
the death of Vice President Conrad
Weber it will be necessary to elect a
successor. Each local union is privi-
legged to nominate one candidate.
Delegate John Steiner, who repre-
sented the local at the State Fedora
ton of Labor, will have his report of
the convention ready for the next
meeting of the local.

WE HAVE POSTPONED ACTION.
A. r. Of L. Matter Will Have to Wait
a While for Publication.

The Wageworker is in receipt of an
envelope full of matter from Secre-
tary Morrison of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor, all of which the secre-
tary and the executive council would
like to see published in the labor
papers.
The Wageworker has postponed
publication pending the settlement of
a little matter that came up at the
Toronto convention. When the labor
editors sat and listened to President
Gompers' enconiums for the labor pa
pers, they rejoiced, although resolu-
tions of thanks go an almighty short
ways towards paying composition
bills. But when Jim" Duncan re-
fused to give the labor editors an in
ming by having their proclamation
read before the convention, the labor
editors came to the conclusion that
the thank YOU stunt had been played
about long enough. So the Wage
worker has gone out on strike. Just
as soon as the American Federation
ist. official organ of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor published the procla-
nation of the International Labor
Press Association Of America, just so
soon will The Wageworker resume
publication of the matter sent out by
the executive council. We don't know
what the other members of the asso-
citation will do. but we have already
done it, b'gosh!
AS secretary OF the association the
editor Of The Wageworker has sent
Secretary Morrison copy of the proc
lamation with a request to give it
space in the American Federationist.
Now we are just waiting.

CONFER WITH GROcERS.
Central Labor Union Committee Has
Talk Over Ordinance Matters.


A committee from the Central La
A committee from the Central
Labor union met with the Retail
Grocers' and Butchers Association
at Fratern' ty hall Tuesday evening
and proceed to discuss the proposed
ordinance increasing the hawker's
license to $100 year. This meet
ing was calleda two weeks ago, but
last Monday evening the city cOun-
Gil inconsiderately killed the proposed
ordinance. 1t is aimed only at the
itinerants who, like "ships that pass
in the night" drop in and prey upon
the people and then disappear. The
grocers feel that the wholesalers are
not toting fair with them. The fact is,
the hawkers take off the hands of the
wholesale produce merchants lot of
stuff that self-respecting grocers will
not handle. This stuff is sorted over,
washed off faced" and palmed off on
unsuspecting housewives as good
goods.
The committee discussed the matter
thoroughly with the association and
some new ideas were brought out on
each side. No definite conclusion was
reached, but it is evident that there
is a number of things calculated to
benefit both merchants and patrons
where more harmony might be Sc
cured. The association will not cease
it's agitation, and will doubtless rein
troduce the ordinance and then, after
a campaign of publicity, try to secure
it's enactment.

GET IN LINE, BOYS.
Lincoln Pressmen Should at Once
Help Organize an Auxiliary.

Lincoln Pressmen Should at Once
Help Organize an Auxiliary.
The union pressmen of Lincoln
should not lag behind their brothers
in other cities, but should at once set
about organizing an auxiliary COM
posed of their wives, sisters and moth
ers. Such an organization would do
much to add to the social pleasures of
the pressmen and their families. and
would at the same time help the
pressmen in their work Of bettering
the organization
The printers will gladly testify to
the benefits that have come from the
organization of auxiliaries all over the
country. This is thrown out as a
friendly suggestion to the pressmen,
with the hope that they will see fit to
act upon it at an early date.
And, by the way, every other union
in the city ought to get busy along-th
same line. It's good thing to push
along.

JOHN q. LENNON DEFEATED.
Radical Element Of Taiiors' lnterna-
tional Get His Scalp.

One of the most surprising bits OF
news to the labor world Is the an
nouncement that Eugene Brais of
Cleveland has defeated John Lennon
treasurer of the A. F. of L., for the
position of secretary of the Interna-
tional Journeymen Tailors' Union.
Lemons defeat is significant. in that
John is fine type of the old school
unionist - conservative, clean and
strong. He has acted as treasurer of
the A. F. of l.. for years and years,
but the progressive element that his
successor represents made possible
his undoing. At the last convention
the tailors declared for Socialism,
class political action and collective
ownership. This is the thought that
Brais represents, and which defeated
Lennon. The new official is classed
as a radical, and is extremely popular
in Cleveland, his home city.-Toledo,
O., Union Leader.

cRAMPED FOR ROOM.
Labor Temple Board Already Up
Against the Problem of Space,

Already the Temple Association
finds itself fronted with the problem
of securing more room. 1t was first
planned to rent the north room on the
first floor for store purposes, but be-
fore the room could be put in shape
the association finds that it is cramped
for space. There is left no room for
a library and reading room, and these
were always considered of great inn
portance. There is no card room, and
that, too, is considered worthy of at
tention
There seems to be general senti
ment in favor of using the vacant
room for Temple purposes and that
this will be done if the question of
revenue can be decided is almost GER
tain. A committee has been appoint
ed to ascertain the probable cost of
fitting it up for library and reading
room purposes, and this committee is
expected to report at the next meet
ing of the directors.

of commerce and labor has promised
to consider the creation of bureau
for the investigation of the conditions

CHARTER RESTORED.

After all its fuss and buster the
American Federation of Labor execu-

of the Toledo, O., Central Labor I'm

months ago because the central body

THE POPULATION OF TACOMA,
 WHAT REVISED FIGURES SHOW
Charge That Returns Had Been Pad
 ded Fully Substantiatcd.

Washington, Dec. 9.--The population of Tacoma, Wash, Is 83,743, according to revised figures issued by the census bureau today. This is an increase Of 5G,029. or l22 per cent. over 37,7i4 in 1900. The first announcement of Ta- coma's population in the thirteenth census credited the city with sZ.972 inhabitants. or I'll less than today's revised figures.
 The population of ogden, Utah, Is 25,5S0, according to statistics of the thirteenth census issutd today. This is an increase of 9,Z67 or 5G.S per cent. over 1G,213 In 1900.
 Director Durand issued with the Ta- coma figures a statement claiming that had been padded to the extent of more than 30,000 names had been substan- tiated by the recount
 As originally returned, there was shown to be population of 11e,270. part of the city was re-checked, with the result that a population of 82,972 was developed. The people of Tacoma being dissatisfied with these figures, Chief Statistician Hunt of the census bureau was sent to Tacoma to make a complete recount. Director Durand claims that the result is a complete vindiation of position.
 "It shows 'conclusively,'' says Ir. Durand that the original re-checking and remuneration by the census bu- reau in August and September was substantially correct and that the orig inal returns were padded to the ex- tent approximately of 23,000."

Sf3,ooo FIRE AT CROMWELL,
 MIDDLETOWN SENDS HELP
Fire Hydrants Had Been Capped and
 Locked by Water Company.

Cromwell Conn, Dec. Sire which for a time threatened to destroy a greater part of the business section of the town. late today was gotten un- der control by assistance from the Middletown fire department, after gut ting the store of Kirkpatrick &s Blake. The loss on the building, which was owned by w. R. Mcdonald, is esti- mated at s5,000, and the loss to tho occupants $S.000.
 The fire started in a storehouse in the rear of hhe store and was presurn- ably set by spark from a locomotive. the railroad tracks being in the rear of the building. The fire must have been burning for some time when dis covered, for when the Tear door of the storo was opened the flames rushed in with such violence that the occupants had just time to place the books in the safe and make their escape by the front doors. The alarm of fire brought the local fire fighting apparatus to the scene, but 1t could not work with much success. due to the fact that the fire hydrants had been capped and locked by the Cromwell Water conn pany on a refusal by the town to pay for their maintenance. Help was ask ed for from Middletown and on the arrival of a company from that town the Mddletown firemen broke the caps from the hydrants and in short time had the fire under control. The post office building stood within four feet of the store, and when the building seemed to be in danger of being de- stroyed the contents were removed. but streams of water prevented 1t catching. Roofs of other buildings in the near vicinity caught fire, but were soon put out.

PORTER CHARLTON
 SURRENDERED TO ITALY
American Charged with Murder of
 Wife at Lake Como.

Washington, Dec. 9.-Secretary Knox today granted the request of Italy for the surrender of Porter Charlton, charged with the murder of his wife at Lake Como, Italy The secretary holds that the fact that Italy refuses to surrender her citizens to the United States for trial does not relieve this country from the obligation of the extraditiOn treaty to surrender to Italy fugitives from justice from that country. The question of the insanity of Charlton, it is suggested, is one for the courts and not for the department to determine.
 New York, Dec. Edwin F. Smith counsel for Porter Charlton, said in Jersey City tonight that the extradf- ton of his client would certainly be opposed. Although nothing had been decided he thought it likely that habeas corpus proceedings in the interests of Charlton would be taken before a United States judge, probably at Tren- ton. Just what would be done, he said, would be decided tomorrow.
 Mir. Smith said that there were sev- eral grounds on which habeas corpus proceedings coulC be based. One was that Charlton's case was not covered by the United States government S treaty with Italy. The question of the prisoners mental condition might also be brought up.
