BETTER PAY FOR CARPENTERS.
wrong.

We hope the contractors and builders
OF Seattle can see their way 10 assent
ing TO the request Of the carpenters for
higher rate OF wages Not only is
the scale they ask very reasonable, but
the proposition is made in such terms
as must command the sympathy and
goodwill Of every man who wants 10
see prosperity extend all along the line.
y good carpenter is compelled to de-
vote several years 10 learning his trade
and both his experience and mis- skill
entitle him to higher rate Of COM
pensation than a class OF labor which
requires neither. The men have acted
in very manly way by making their
request now before contracts have been
entered into, and If any contract has
been entered into and work commenced,
We hope the men Will not insist upon
the increase as TO such work.
Carpenters and builders have had a
pretty hard time OF it for the last two
or three years; many of them are citi-
zens of Seattle. owning their homes,
and rather than be idle some OF them
have taken jobs at a lower rate than
ordinary conditions would have justi-
fled. With the promise of a greater
activity in the building trade. the men
should be paid fair rate. They ask
s. for nine hours labor or sac for
eight hours IL property-owner is not
willing to pay price which will enable
employers to pay that rate Of wages
he may be left TO walt until hard times
come again.
The following paragraph In the COM
munication sent to the contractors and
builders commends itself to every fair
minded man:
We believe that the relations be-
tween employer and employe should al
ways be such that in matters of this
kind a mutual agreement can be made
without prejudice or ill-feeling on either
part. In the past few years we have
been contented with the small pittance
we have been receiving, but now our
living expenses have increased to such
an extent we feel justified in asking
your cooperation in establishing the
wages OF carpenters in this city at the
desired rate per day"

not capable OF modification. The Maine

either TO accident or assassination. The
