Questions Max's Membership.
OMAHA. Oct. 1e-To the Editor OF The
Bee: I see in your letter box Of Saturday
contribution by one Max Dezettel under
the heading Where Organized Labor
Stands" referring to the liquor question.
The writer has been a member of organ
lied labor for many years and cannot
find any member of organized labor in
Omaha who can tell me to what union
Mr.. Dezettel belongs. When a writer
attempts to speak for organized labor, or
any part OF 1t, he at least ought TO have
the necessary qualification of being a
member of some labor union.
Win some one who knows please inform
me OF what union Mr.. Dezettel is a men,

Chilly" Sunday and Degree of Honor
OMAHA, Oct ITO the Editor of The
Bee: wish to take this method Of
assuring the members of the Degree of
Honor who continue to call me with re-
gard to the Degree Of Honor going to the
Billy" Sunday taberra cle as a united
body IN the name of the order and thus
place the Degree Of Honor on record as
unfolding this particular sect, revival
campaign or whatever you may wish to
call II. that Washington lodge, No. q,
which is the largest Degree of Honor
lodge in the United States or Canada,
has authorized no one to speak for 1t on
the matter Of reservations for the Degree
of Honor at the Tab"
One sef-appointed evangelistically in
clined individual took the unheard of
liberty of speaking for this great fraternal
order. No. "a is in no way connected with
this move as far as I, as recorder. know.
The Degree of Honor Is a splendid fra
tenal order, composed of Jew and Gentle,
Protestant and Catholic and persons of
no religious convictions other than to
believe In a Supreme Being and Ruler of
the Universe. The Degree OF Honor re-
spects the religious convictions of each
and every member and will never swerve
from the great principles of justice, truth
and mercy to all, so strongly implanted
in the hearts of all true members of the
Degree of Honor, even for the great
BILLY" Sunday enterprise.
