Ncb., Feb. 10.—(Spectal Tel- egram.)—The thirty-first annual meeting of the Nebraska Press association convened here at 2 p, m. today with a large attend- ance of editors, many accompanied by their wives. | house, which for the occasion. After the imvoeation by Rev. John Power, Mayor Miles spoke in welcome, eulogizing the press as the great- | st moulder of public opinion and the | mainstay of popular government. Mr. Maupin was not present to respond {o the address of Mr. Miles and the response | was made extemporancously by Mr. Had- | com, who appropriately responded In a five-minute speech expressive of the ple | ure and benefit anticipated from the meet- ing. meeting were dispensed with and reports of committees were listened to. The re- port of the legal committee was nil. W, | M. Good of the excursion committee re- ported on the excursion taken by sixty members of the assoclation through the northwestern , country last summer. The ['report was favorable, also all expenses were cleared and a small surplus remains jover for the association. Will Maupin, chairman of the executive committee, said that body had met, shirked | all it could aad succeeded and left the pro- gram to be gotten up by the president and | secretary. The president then addressed the gather- ing. He pointed out the advantages gained | through the state organization and recom- | mended the extension of the idea to county organizations, that the senseless and cut- throat competition so often indulged in might be done away with. The next address was by Rev. John Power of Hastings, who spoke upon the press as viewed by a citizen. Each of the home papers was wittily described and gently criticized and then the speaker spoke of newspapers in genersl. They may | be one of three things, he said, or a com- bination of the three, merely commercial institutions, the tools of parties or cliques, or independent moulders of public opinion. The latter is the ideal. Its editor will probably not wax fat in the land, for where truth and falsehood, justice and injustice are concerned he will not allow profit and loss to Influence his position; he may fail, but o failing there is no falling, and so dying there is no dylng. In response Mr. Maupin said if he lived to be 3,000 years old he would still expect to hear such papers as Mr. Power had described spoken of. Editor Good of the Newport Eagle pre- sided while topics of the round table were | discussed. Speaking of “Fiowers of Speech,” Mr. Wilson of the Springfield Re- publican expressed himself i plain English words Anglo-Saxon, in vews- paper work, and recommended the flowers of speech be yiclded to the.high school brother and novelist. The remainder of the discussions were confined to the effect of rural delivery upon the circulation of the country news- paper. The consensus of opinion is that the latter s not injured by rural delivery but that its circulation is increased. Rep- resentatives of the city papers testified to the same effect. This evening a receriion was tendered the delegates at the Hotel Bostwick from 8 to 9:30, many women being present. From 9:30 until the wee small hours a smoker was given at Elks hall.

Degrading Labor and Crushing Hope and Ambition, Say Mitel PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 10.—The United | Mine Workers of America as an organiza- tion was severely scored today by counsel before the strike commission. John T.| Lenahan, for the nonunion men, claimed | his clients had a legal right to earn a live- | Ithood without the consent or dictation of the union. James H. Torrey, for the Delaware and | Hudson, claimed that the recognition of the union was not an issue before the com- mission, and then went on to devote con- siderable time to a consideration of that demand. Arguments for N Mr. Lenahan presented three. proposi- tions. He submitted that the commission must find the Unitéd Mine Workers re- sponsible for the violence and other unlaw- ful acts which deprived the nonunion min- ers of thelr lawtul rights to work; that all authorities agreed that the law guaranteed to every man the right to work, where, when and for whom he pleased; that noth- ing could justify a finding by the com- mission that nonunion miners must deal with their employers through the medium of the union or be subject in the slightest degree to the control or dictation of the union. After presenting these propositions Mr. Lenahan sald in part It follows, as & necessary conclusion from admitting the principle that nonunion min- ers must be permitted to work without the urlawful interference from fellow work- union Men. men, that they must not be made to deal | with thelr employers through the medium of the union. It is the admitted right of a majority of stockholders in a corporation to dictate a policy for the company, even though con- trary to the wishes of some stockholders who thereby might suffer loss. But all the servants of one master remafn individuas under our law and yleld nothing of their rights to a majority of their co-employes. | How then could it be possible for this | commission to admit the right of the Unit Mine Workers to contract on behalf of no union employes with a common employer 1f it were possible, is it likely that non- union miners would ‘receive fair treatment at the hands of those >mbittered by preju- dice and anxious to monopolize all the | may be hauled back into deep | Mea tano's court at Chicago tomorrow.
