TROUBLE, TOO, IN SPOKANE
Differences Between Builders Ex-
change and Carpenters Union.
SITUATION AS 1T STANDS
The Exchange Adopts Resolution That
the Union Shall No Longer Be
Recognized-Union Men Are
Not Barred, However.

And Spokane is enjoying some of the
same. Butte is also experiencing
boom in builders exchange and carpen-
ters differences. The Chronicle of Spo-
kane says that fight is imminent be-
tween the Spokane Builders exchange
and the Carpenters union. At meet
ing of the Builders exchange held Sat
urday night resolution was unani-
mously passed to the effect that the
Carpenters union should no longer be
recognized by the exchange.
The exact wording of the resolution
has not been made public. 1t is stated
that it was not of such a nature as to
debar union men ftrom working for the
contractors belonging to the exchange,
but that the existence OF the union Will
simply be ignored by the exchange and
its members will be treated Just the
same as any other Workmen.
The Spokane Builders exchange en-
braces in it's membership nearly all of
the contractors of the city, and large
majority of the membership is said TO
have been present at the meeting Satur-
day evening when the resolution was
passed The introduction of the resolu-
LlOn pF6Clplldleu d lively ueDdlS AZ
first some of the contractors We're dis
posed to vote against the resolution, de-
claring that it would not receive the
approval of the business men of the
city. Other speakers declared that the
business men would stand by the eX-
change in such action. In the end the
resolution was passed by unanimous
vote.
No action was taken in regard to any
other union. While none of the contrac
tors will state specifically why the Car
penters' union was singled out, it Is un-
derstood to be in large part because this
union was one of the most aggressive of
the labor societies and also because of
dissatisfaction with the union scale,
which requires payment of equal wages
to men of unequal skill.
No trouble has resulted from this ac-
ton to-day. In spite of the resolution
passed Saturday night, no instance is
known where non-union men were
placed beside union laborers on work
to-day. No doubt is expressed, how
ever, that such action will be taken dur
ing the present week.
No notice of this action has been
given to the Carpenters union; but that
society is not likely to submit to the
new conditions without a lively at
tempt to force recognition. While con-
ceding that there are many non-unon
carpenters to be found in the city, they
rely upon the union men in other trades
to stand by them and endeavor to force
the contractors back into line. even 60

Poet Who Wrote Funny 11in8s
BECAUSE He Couldn't Help IL.
It is now five years since Ben King
died suddenly at Bowling Green, KY
while on a tour Of entertainment. Al
most Immediately after the curious ana
amusing verses he had written were
published and found speedy sale. Now
there is found to be a demand sufficient
to warrant a new edition, containing
all the poems in the older work and
number Of others which were not %
included. Some of the better known
of them, it is safe to say, will never be
lost to the world. King had a sense
of humor which was truly American
and Of the best order, Intellectually
speaking. He wrote funny things be-
cause he could not help 1t, being still
funnier than they. What he has writ
ten survives in garbled form on every
variety stage in America. The editor
of the book here has seen fit to change
the name of 1.-THE Sum of Life" to 1.-THE
Pessimist," ignoring the pun on the
Lonpfellow poem implied in the earlier
title; but it is just as well worth laugh
ing over as ever it was:
Nothing to do but work,
Nothing to eat but foo0,
Nothing to wear but clothes
To keep one from going nude.
Nothing to breathe but air.
Quick as a flash it's gonel
Nowhere to fall but off,
Nowhere to stand but on.
Nothing to comb but hair,
Nowhere to sleep but in bed
Nothing to weep but tears,
Nothing to bury but dead.
Nothing to sing but songs,
All we'll alas. alack!

Nowhere to 60 but out,
Nowhere to come but back.
Nothing to see but sights,
Nothing to quench but thirst,
Nothing to have but what we've got;
Thus through life we're cursed.
Nothing to strike but gait;
Everything moves that goes;
Nothing at all but common sense
Can ever withstand these woes.
Several 'If l Should Die Tonight"
poems have been written by several
persons of varied ability. All were
given to the world before Ben King
wrote his during the Worlds Fair.
Since that time none have been pub
lished. This is the reason:
II should die tonight
And you should come to my cold corpse
and say,
Weeping and heartsick DER my lifeless
clay
II should die tonight
And you should come in deepest grief and
woe
Anu say, I1cFe tudl ten uOudIS ludI i
owe
1 might arise in my large white cravat
And say, whats that?
II I should die tonight
And you should come to my cold corpse
and kneel,
Clasping my bier to show the grief you
feel
I say, if should die tonight
And you should come to me and there and
then
Just even hint Of paying me that ten,
l might rise the while;
But I'd drop dead again.

and worth quoting to the member Of
the family that seems to be most in
love, take How Often:'

In park not far from town
They stood on the bridge at midnight
Because they didn't sit down.
The moon rose DER the city
Behind the dark church spire;
The moon rose over the city
And kept on rising higher.
How often, oh, how often
They whispered words so soft
How often, oh, how often,
How often, oh, how oft!
