EIGHT HOURS AGAIN.
Labor Union Men to
Petition the AL
dermen.
LEGAL POINT INVOLVED.
Claim Made That Board
Must Listen and
Obey.
LEGAL POINT INVOLVED.

The eight hour law for city employees
viii come up again at tomorrow nights
meeting of the city council. The labor
union men will adopt another tack, and
have been assured by their legal adj
Visers that they are in the right.
The matter will be brought up this
time on petition which will be filed
with the city clerk tomorrow, asking
That the matter be placed before the
voters at the city election. The men
behind the petition say that the law
provides that the selectmen of any
town shall place any matter on the
ballot, which is petitioned for by 10 or
more qualified voters. The claim is
that what is true of town, applies
also TO the city, and it is on this point
mat they take their stand.
On a previous occasion the eitv So
Motor has ruled that the power Of plac-
ing the question on the ballot was for
the board of aldermen to decide as they
saw Mt, but according to the ruling Sc
cured by the labor men, the petition duly
signed settles the matter, and the al
dermen are obliged to place the ques-
ton before the voters. In case the al
dernen decline to take this action.
there is talk of writ Of mandamus
being secured, Apart from this question
