HAVELOCK WORKERS

The union men are getting into the
political game for fair out in Have
lock- J. A. Malstead of the machinists
is running for city clerk on the repub-
lican ticket. Mr.. Linstead is a repub-
lican candidate for the council from
the First ward. J. w. Jonas is demo-
cratic candidate for the council from
the Second ward and Harry Bell is a
democratic candidate for the school
board. That's bunch of pretty good
union men, thank you, and every one
of them deserving and capable. We're
going to watch the Havelock election

elected we're going over there and

MUSICAL UNION BALL
Will Be Held at the Auditorium and
Will Be a Wonder

The annual ball and concert of the
Musicians Union will be held at the
Auditorium on March 20, and of course
it will be the biggest thing of the
year in the way of union balls. A
concert will be given by band of
forty-five pieces under the direction of
Professor August Hagenow, and will
Immediately precede the ball. The
grand march will begin promptly at
$3.50 and the music for the dancing
program will be furnished by an or
chestra of twenty pieces.
Governor and Mrs. Shallenberger
have been invited to lead the grand
march, together with the other state
officers and their wives, and General
and Mrs. John Hartigan. The concert
program will appeal to every lover
of good music, and the ball will be en-
joyed by every one who loves to dance
to the finest music. The committees
are all working hard to make the ball
even a greater success than the one
of last year, which set new record
for union functions in Lincoln. The
admission to concert and ball is 81,

Forming New Union.

EOVIuiIt9 = NCW OuIOU.
A number of cement workers met
at the Labor Temple the first of the
week and discussed the matter OF
forming local union. Owing to the
shortness of the notice of meeting the
number present was small. Those
present realized the. need of organiza>
tion, and all said that a majority of
the men of the craft could be secured
as members of local union if the
matter were properly presented to
them.
After talking the matter over in
formally the meeting adjourned with
out definite action, but with the un-

would be held in the near future.
When the meeting is held it is expect
ed that enough men will be present to

BILLY MAJORS SPELLING

There are five people-maybe six
connected with that Cudahy-Lillis af-
fair that have my sympathy. They
are the four little Cudhy children and
General Gown, the father of Mrs. Cud-
ahy. If there is Mrs. Gown she is
included in the list of those for whom
have sympathy. AS for Jack Cudahy
and Jere Lillis, they are neither one
worth considering. In the first place,
Cudahy was dirty coward. He
didn't have nerve enough to go
through with the task he assigned to
himself, and he was such dirty, mis-
cradle cur that he was willing to blast
the future of his children in order to
excuse himself. We don't doubt that
General Gown believes his daughter
innocent of any wrong doing. Per-
haps she was, but there are lot of
us so blamed old-fashioned that we
would be rather suspicious of our
wives if they went out ''joy riding"
three times il two days with a
"rounder" like Iillis, and Tapped up a
lot of booze and stuffed themselves at
midnight suppers with the same gent.
For long time we were led to be-
lieve that Jere I4illis had been rend-
cred immune from that sort of temp
tation in future. but now comes the
Associated Press and in delicate Ian
guage informs us that Jere has been
malignod--in one respect, at least.
That it was Cudahy's intention to re-
move Lillis from the field of social ac-
tivity is beyond dispute. but it is not
surprising that a dirty, cowardly cur
who was willing to blast his own off
spring to save himself would prove a

plished his object. What l object tC
is that such hue and Cry should be
made over rich pup who confined

upon underpaid working girls never
receive any attention, circumstantial
or circumcisional. According to oul
seemingly accepted social standards
it's all right to debauch a poor gir
who has to work for living. In fact
that seems to he sort Of counter

Say. Messrs. Despair & Stoner, let
me butt in with the suggestion that
you try the experiment of selling on
Saturday the tickets for the Sunday
ball games. That way of whipping the
devil around the stump seems to salve
the conscience of a lot of Sabbath OBJ
servers. 1t is deemed sin to take a
quarter at the gates of Epworth Park
on Sunday to hear a sleek and we'll
fed gentleman earn $500 by delivering
ninety-minute lecture, but it's all
right to take a 25-cent ticket at the
gate on that day, provided the ticket
was purchased on Saturday. l confess
that if thought Sunday baseball was
wrong the mere fact of buying the
ticket on Saturday wouldn't make my
conscience go to sleep as | sat on the
mosphere with madelictions upon the
| umpire. But there seems to be a lot
of people in Lincoln who think that
sort of evasion is quite proper and
Christian. Far be it from me to inter
| fere with your method of managing the
Lincoln ball club, but hope you will
pardon the little suggestion l make

truth of that old scriptural quotation

That was, perhaps, contributing
