sidered. In reply would say that after
much thought and study | find there are
a number of sections in your agreement
which to my mind bear some Objectionable
features. Other sections embodied therein
are worded in such a manner that / am al
a loss to fully understand their meaning
In consideration of said facts | respectfully
ask permission to return this agreement to
your association
To this the executive committee of the
union on July } replied as follows:
Your favor of recent date is at hand.
In reply will say that if there is any part of
inciosed agreem mt that you do not under
stand we will gladly explain such part. The
terms of this agreement the National
brotherhood of Electrical Workers of
America must insist upon.
Kindly let US have your reply not later
than noon Wednesday. July ), 1899. as on
that date the union will take final action on
this matter

My Dear Sir: In some of the papers
there was published what purports to be an
interview with me in which l am said to

for me that if it had not been for Haana's
able leadership Sherman would have struck
bottom long ago in Ohio politics. / never
said so nor did l use any language ike it,
nor did then nor never in my life say an
unkind word of you. / began to follow your
