WHAT TIE UNION PRINTERS WILL DISCOVER
There was trouble In the Dallas HERALD
Office on Monday. IL seems that the Dali
las printers formed union, and those
working ON the HERALD demanded that
Mr., Williams either join the union or be
dismissed by the pr0priotors. Mr.. Wi.
liams was not dismissed and did not join
the UNION. The union printers refused TO
work on the HERALD, ana from now on that
paper will be conducted ny Il non.uuion at.
lice, No fault was found at tho prices paid.
The HERALD appeared on Tuesday morn
ing, but somewhat smaller than usual. II
Is likely that the printers union will find
ont IN time that they cannot usurp the
ulaces of the proprietors of newspapers.
