Cowen g CO. Paying their Ken at q
Discount.

This morning Mr.. Cowcll requested d
reporter for The ARGUS 10 say that he
was paying off his men at his ofacc 10 Star
block, The reporter afterwards learned
that Cowell was paying his men at dis
count Of from 10 to 20 ger cent, and on the
grounds that their pay was not due until
next regular payday, and that the counci
neglected to vote him his money Saturday
night It is also said that Cowell has
saved some money in the same way pre-
viously.
Previous to the completion of the work
and while the men were still at work, it i:
all right to require them TO wait until reg
ular pay day, except when a man is dis
charged, in which case he should be paic
the full sum due him when he is dis
charged. But when the job is completed
and the men thrown out of work the,
should then be paid every cent their due
at once.
| The city council did wrong in postpon
ing the payment Of Cowell's undispute(
bill Of $75O.2O but Butler, Bailey & Co
had it postponed. The mayor urged it
payment at once. Butler urged delay an,
Bailey made a motion to that effect, an,
Wollenhaupt made haste 10 toady to tn
