ures at his Auditorium lecture in Chi
cago Thursday evening next, on Who
Are the Conspirators?" The A. R. u
president is confident his postponed
trial will never be called, and is TAX
ing the platform as a means of expos
ing certain information in his possess

hall. Admission free.
The bricklayers' union is interesting
itself in the proposed new capitol
building in the direction of endeavor-
ing, if possible, to have inserted in the
specifications of the contract that the
labor employed thereon shall be union.
The argument is set up that none
other than the contractors benefit by
having work done on public buildings
by "scab" labor, and that it is the
duty OF the peoples representatives to
benefit as large a numeber as posi-
bic, especially when it costs no more.
It is further pointed out that the men,
bers of the trades unions are perma-
nent and responsible citizens, whereas
the ordinary run of non-union labor
engaged by contractors in the building
trades is both nonresident and ire
sponsibIe. The bricklayers have ap-
pointed a committee to look after their
interests IN the matter.
