a good deal of this color in dresses for the

At fits meeting yesterday Omaha
typographical union No. 100 adopted
a report from a committee that had

the deal at considerable length, and
concluded with the following state
ment for the public:
The so-called '.Union Label Directory

was wrongfully used thereon.

cured by misrepresentation and that IN
