Sm:-We do not propose to mako q
statement that "he who runs may
read" but we desire that part Of the
public who are interested in this con-
troVersy to stand still and consider our
side OF the controversy. Until about
one year since we have managed to live
and do work Us a non.union company.
At that time We deemed it advisable, in
the interest Of harmony between our
selves and the laboring public, OF which
We are q part, to agree to the dema 'ds OF
the trades unions within our call as
general contractors. In this we gree
to employ union labor, aud we have
ever done SO since our signature was
placed to that contract. Tried and
true non-union men who had been in
u employ for O long time We required
to Join both stonecHtters' and stone
masons' unions, al the requirement.
demanded. Previous to this trouble
there was but M complaint made to
US by the stonecutters, and that was
that we bought our stone from parts
foreign to their jurisdiction for use at
the city water works, which was con-
trary to the agreement between tho
Ohio County Stone Contractors asso.
citation and the cutters union. We
proved to their satisfaction that the
cutting was arranged for and mostly
done before We Joined the Ohio County
Stone Contractors association.
In regard 10 the carvers that came
hero to do the work IN the Chapline
street German church, We would say
We had no idea that 1t was conflicting
with any agreement we had signed with
the cutlers' union, There has not been
q first class piece OF carving done in
this town but what was done by men
foreign to Wheeling. The Stifel block,
st. Matthews parsonage and the Stone&
Thomas building were all done by men
brought in from other towns Further
than that, we claim a carver is no more
a stone cutter than an artist is a house
painter.
The truth OF the whole business is,
tho Austrian cutters whom we have
employed are the great bone OF conten.
ton. The Austrlans are skilled, rapid
and willing worknen, and the so-called
American (7) cutter is the opposite.
They cannot strike because we employ
what they call id Dagos," because
these men belong to their union, as We
have seen to 1t that they Join as soon as
they enter our employ. There are good
men and good worknen in the union
who are not foreign born, but the aver
age OF the Wheeling cutters union is
decidedly inferior; in fact, they are bot
ter scabblers than cutters.

s~IR;-seeing different statements in
the press about the strike We arc now
engaged in, and there being no official
statement from our branch, we deem it
advisable to place ourselves right before
the public, IS he who runs may read
that most Of the statements published
come from the other side. There is an
agreement between the Builders Asso'
citation and union stone cutters that
they shall work together for mutual
benefit, the builders association to hire
none but union stone cutters aud the
union stone cutters to work for the
builders association contractors only.
Hallock Bros, have violated the agree
ment at different timea, and the present
case Is only the last feather that broke
the cancels back. The hiring Of these
men Is q fragrant violation OF the
agreement entered into with the build
ers' association, they agreeing in hir.
ing union stone cutters TO be governed
by our rules, which require that plain
moulded and carved stone work must
be done by union stone cutters, When
asked to adjust this matter Mr., Hallock
told tho delegate to attend to his own
business aud for the society to do their
worst His representative also used
abusive language, resorting to the
childish method oil calling names and
trying to ring in u general bluH. The
builders' association refused to take
any action to bring Hallock Bros. to
terms, hence the strike, There is not a
