THE PAYERS STRUCK.
They Refuse to Go Back to Work Unde
Foreman Hobson.

They Refuse to Go Back to Work Under
Foreman Hobson.
The PAYERS employed by the street
railway company in putting down the
paving blocks on the company's poT-
ton of the new pavement struck yes
terday morning and refused to go back
TO work unless Foreman Hobson was
discharged. Up to last evening the
trouble had not been adjusted and It
is likely a new force will be put on.
The men had no excuse for quitting.
except they did not like Foreman Hob
son, who was put over them a couple
of days ago. The men are employed
by the day. Up to a few days &
their work was so satisfactory that no
foreman was placed over them, but be-
ginning with this week the company
thought they were not working as fast
as they should, and ex-City Engineer
Blackboard, who is in charge of the
work for the company, was directed to
put in another foreman. The latter
sent to Salt AXE for Hobson and put
him over the men. 1t appears there
was friction from his appearance on
the job, as he is something of a pusher,
and at least a couple of the men
thought he required too much.
According to the company, the mat
ter came to a head yesterday about 10
- CiOCh. oHe "a lie iith was dCtuS-
toned to leaving his work and visit
ing a saloon rather more frequently
than Hobson thought proper, and when
he returned from one of these trips at
that time Hobson told him IL he would
spend less time In the saloon and more
at his work he would get more done
The man threw down his tools and said
he was going to quit and called to mis-
companions to join him. The other
three conferred a and decided
to quit also. The paving was stopped
for the rest of the day. Manager
Wharton of the street car company
said last evening he knew nothing
about the grievance of the men against
Hobson. as none of them had come to
him. If they had, he said he would
have looked into the trouble, but the
quit without making any complaint.
and he would therefore leave the mat
ter entirely in the hands OF Engineer
Blackboard, to discharge Hobson or not,
as he saw fit. Mr.. Wharton issued or
ders to Mr.. Blackford last evening 20
put in new men this morning If the old
men did not show UP to go to work.
as he did not care to have the paving
delayed.
A similar difficulty arose over Hob
son last fall when Main street was be-
ing paved. City Engineer Blackford
did not like the manner in which the
concrete was being put down and re-
move the inspector, putting Hobson
in his place. The men did not like him
for a boss n quit. Mayor Harring-
ton came Town n morning and found
the work being delayed. as the men
refused to go back to work under Hob
son, and as Mr.. Blackford vas not .
be found the mayor removed Hobson
and put the old inspector back to work.
When Mr.. Blackboard at length ar
rived and found the mayor had in
terfered, as he considered it. in his de-
partment. he handed in his resigna-
ton. The matter was patched up and
the resignation was withdrawn.
