CARPENTERS OBJECT.

Taylor Mechanics Oppose Importation
of Workmen for Local Work.
Special to The Statesman.
TAYLOR, Tex, May IAN indigna-
ton meeting of the resident carpen-
ters of Taylor was held with closed
doors at the mayors Office yesterday
evening, in which about 30 or 40 OF
the leading workmen of the city parN
ticipated. The burden Of ther griev-
ance is as follows.
A few weeks ago the contract for
fine residence to cost between $4,000
and $4,000, and to be built for MIR. j.
A. Thompson, in the Westside addi-
ton, was let to Mr.. n. w. Lewis, a
builder and contractor of San Antonio,
who has recently established himself
at Taylor, and force of Taylor car
penters were put to work upon the
building. Since that time, however,
a number of the local workmen have
been discharged and their places filled
with carpenters imported here from
San Antonio by Contractor Lewis.
Another fact which adds to the griev-
ance of the resident carpenters is that
MIR. Thompson, the owner of the new
building. is the senior proprietor OF
the Thompson s. Tucker Lumber com
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1894-05-03

pany, which formerly conducted a
contracting business here and with
which Contractor Lewis is now doing
business, and they think that he too
is thus discriminating against local
workmen by the importation of San
Antonio mechanics.
The local workmen assert that eff
cheney in workmanship and wages be-
ing equal, Taylor workmen should
have preference over imported labor,
and thus the matter stands.
At the secret meeting yesterday a
committee Was appointed to confer
with Contractor Lewis and Mr..
Thompson in reference to the matter
and report at another meeting to be
held tonight.
Although no threats have been ad-
vanced it is believed that boycott
will be the result if an adjustment Of
the differences is not effected.
At the instance of Mr.. J NJ. benson.
merchant of Granger, the citizens OF
that place held a meeting yesterday
and contributed $50 III cash for the
benefit of General Coxey's army OF the
unemployed now i'll Washington City.
The remittance was made forthwith.
