Too MUCH cannot be written, n adj
vance OF the Republican convention for
the nomination oi Republican candi-
dates for Office 10 Iron county, in regard
20 a careful selection OF such candidates.
Few campaign years in the history oithe
county have seen such number OF candi-
dates in the field and so bitter faction
al fight, prior 20 the nominating conyen-
ton The inevitable result OF a contest,
where these conditions prevail is "A dis.
gruntled feeling on the part of the
losing forces. All cannot be nominated
and reconciliation will not bc among the
easiest results TO obtain. For this rea-
son, il nothing more, unusual care
should be exercised in the selection of
candidates. Should man OF inferior
qualifications, questionable integrity
and lacking in public confidence be
placed on the Republican ticket, merely
10 satisfy the within OF some individual,
clique or faction, the result may be "A
serious shock 10 the ticket a. a whole.
II such course is pursued and the
ticket il defeated, it will not have been
the first time that Il political parasite
has sunk political ship with many a
worthy seaman on board. This is not
the proper season for the Republican
organization Of Iron county TO go into
the experiment business. There is a
patriotic duty to be performed on No
vember neNt-that OF electing VIM.
Mckinley president OF the United States.
The Republicans OF this county should
refuse to ieopardize Republican triumph
by an unworthy ticket, even to the ex-
tent Of one nomination..

tors that only union men shall be en-
ployed, and the two parties agree upon the
hours ard the rate of wages.
Usually the agreement lasts one year,
when the interested parties come together
again and change their agreement as the
times and circumstance demand. In re-
turn for the recognition OF the union the
latter assist the coz tractors in every way
to drive out of the field all irresponsl-
BILE, cheap, "coyote" contractors VINO, by
doing poor work, using poor materials ana
hiring cheap help, ruin the trade.
Many of the contractors OF this City nave
declared themselves to be in favor of the
union and are desirous OF having their
support in driving out the local coyote
contractors Under these circumstances
the carpenters believe that they can form
an alliance with their employers that VIII
be a means of mutual protection. Ii sucn
a com bination can be formed the Bullolng
Trades Council, with its affiliated unions,
will, no doubt, become part OF the con-
tracing element.
Considerable of the session was occupied
in preparing the specifications to be for
warded to the National Executive Board,
showing the condition OF the carpenter
unions OF this City.
The report was made that fourteen men
called out on strike recently are receiving
benefits from the fund. They are allowed
81 day after the first week. Messrs.
ingles, Cornell and Behnke were ap-
pointed as an arbitration committee to
straighten out difficulties between en-
ployers and journeymen. The letters read
last evening show that although $3.50 was
sent and $1,000 promised more can be OBJ
tanned if necessary.
The movement of the Building Trades
Council to enforce the working-card and
insist upon all union men getting standard
wages bids fair to be a success.
Within the past three days several
mixed jobs have been Strengthened out
Blake, Mcneil & Co., who are construct
ing the bicycle track on Sixteenth and
Folsom streets, have promised Schadt that
none but union men shall be employed
there.
A strike was ordered at noon yesterday
on the Bucher job on Lyon and McAllister
streets. Carpenters, plasterers and metal
roofers were called out. AT 80 O'Clock
the contractor promised to pay union
wages and unionize the job and the men
went back to work.
