THE CONGRESSIONAL PRINTER AND THE
TrPooRAPnIcAL UsIos.--A lively time is
expected at the meeting Of the Columbia
typographical Union this evening, as II is
understood that business In connection with
the Government printing Office Is 10 be
brought before the Union. From what can
be gathered by our reporter, II seems that
there are two points Of difference between
Hon. A. NJ. Clapp, the Congressional printer,
and the Union. The first 10 the apprentice
question, which was agltated during the ad-
mlnistration Of Mr.. Dcfrees. BY clause In
the constitution Of the typographical Union
the Congressional printer Ia prohibited from
employing at the Government printing Office
more than ton apprentices.
1t Is understood that Col. Clapp takes the
ground that the youth Of the country should
be taught trades, and that there Is good
opportunity for more than ten boys TO COM
mcncc their trades Of this office. He there
fore proposes that the Union shall set aside
their law in this regard and leave Il optional
with the Congressional Printer TO employ as
many apprentices as he may deem proper,
and he a. practical printer will do nothing
| which would affect the interest OF the craft.
But he Is fully impressed with tho Idea
that deserving boys should be allowed tho
opportunity Of learning the trade under
Government auspices. The members Of the
Union on the other hand contend that II will
be against the interest Of the Gran In this
city to suspend their law In regard to appren-
tees. The other question Of difference Is the
employment Of the colored composltor,
Douglass, who will probably make appllca-
ton to the Union for membership.
Another law Of the Union Ia that com.
positor must be member Of the Union In
order that he can be eligible 10 work at the
Government office. II Is stated that the
Congressional Printer Is firm In his decision
that Mr.. Douglass shall retain his position
In the office, believing that In thus retaining
him he is but carrying out the expressed
policy Of the Government In recognizing the
claims Of competent colorcd men to positions
Of trust. The question Of the admission oil
the colorcd man Is an Interesting one, and
the decision of the Union Is looked for with
some anxiety.
The typographical fraternity are good deal
exercised In regard to the matter, and very
full meeting Of the Union IL looked for to
night.
