TROUBLE
RUMOREO BETWEEN hOo CAR
RIEs AND CONTRACTORS ON
OMAHA SHOpE.
Railroad Company Furnishing UnskiIl.
ed Labor In the Big Undertaking,
the Contractors Employing Union
Men-erriekiayers' Union Not In
volved.

itumors of trouble between the Hold
Carries union and the contractors for
the new Union Pacific shops have been
heard in labor circles for a day or two
and 1t has been said that it might cul-
inmate in a strike Of the building
trades. says the Omaha Bee. A men,
Der Of bricklayers' union. the one most
directly interested aside from tn hod
carries. said:
The trouble originates over some
thing outside Of the control of the
unions and it seems difficult to how
the bricklayers can be involved, even
even though the hod carries should
not secure their demands. From what
l can understand, the terms Of the con-
tract between the railroad and the
contractors provide that the railroad
company shall furnish all OF the un-
skilled labor required, paying this
labor and receiving credit upon the
amount involved in the contract. 1t
is now said that the company will use
this unskilled labor to do the work
usually done by the hod carries and
p~lasterers' and bricklayers' helpers.
Il do not think that the Bricklayers'
union, under these circumstances, can
afford to make trouble for the contrac-
tor, who will employ union labor
where he employs any. The brick
will have to be laid by members Of the
Omaha union, as there are not enough
workmen Of the other kind to get work
done. This is going to be a busy year
and In order to have the work done on
time no trouble can be permitted. The
Bricklayers' union is conservative and
cannot afford to make trouble where
it can possibly be avoided"

Dr.. M.x~sIrs First seheo. Experience

VII "AAWUuo T"oS oCUo0t eApS110UGO
In 1874 a tall athletic Scotch Irishman
landed in New York and tried to get a chance
to teach. He was a Bachelor of Arts Of
Queens University, Belfast, and a prizeman,
having won his M. A. by examinations. He
had been sub-master in the Royal Academic
Institute of Ireland. In his pocket were tes-
timonials of his success as a scholar and teacher
signed by college professors known on both
sides of the sea. He had come here, like
many another young Irishmen, attracted by
our open door and welcome for scholarship,
industry and talent. He wished to be a
teacher in the public schools, and f%requented
the ante of the su~perintendants of
public instruction in New York aad in Brook
lyn. But he found out there were no com
petitive examinations and that his testimo.
malls were absurd. The kind of educational
expert whose recommendation was indispens-
able in securing an appointment was missing
from his collection. He had nothing from
''the boss or even from ''the leading citizen
of the ward" He found employment on
the New York Mail, and in time became
managing editor of the Brooklyn Daily Times.
1t is adroll circumstance that this unknown
young collegian of twenty-seven years ago,
William II. Maxwell, who conld not secure
the humblest position to teach in either city,

TOWN At AUCTION.

Some thirty years ago a wealthy
Russian noblemsn gave up a large tract
OF his valuable estate and founded
thereon a model town, which he chris
tened Walsawn. During the remainder
of lis life he showed the greatest i'll
terest ia his scheme, and at his death
he left tie whole place to the inhabi-
tants, who were to run the town on
moderate socialistic lines. Suddenly
taxmasters and local authorities, the
people. Of whom there were about 400,
decided to make the place a model
town In every sense Of the word.
They became 80 very progressive that
they instituted improvement upon i'm.
provement. without the least thought
as to whether they could pay the nee
essary bills. and when these had to be
met they awOke to the necessity OF
leyying additional rates. This caused
an exodus of more than a hundred OF
the inhabitants. which left the others
In a worse position than ever To meet
the towns bills by taxation was no
longer possible. SO the whole place as
it stood was mOrtgaged to its most
pressing creditors.
In time matters became 30 bad that
Walsawn could not wen pay the inter
est on the mortgage. and the mort
gagees. therefore, f%oreclosed. The town
was divided up into lots and sold by
auction, realizing just about sufficient
money to repay the mortgages. But
1t was a bad speculation for the pur-
chRsers. for when the inhabitants
found they were expected to pay rents
as well as taxes, they deserted tho
place at once, leaving the town tt
look after itself, and fall into ruins.
