receives $50 more pay per year and
works $50 hours less time.
The union painters work 4S hours
per week and receive an average of

ceive $15S per day. The union polish

reason to kick about the business ag-
ent or other labor official who obtains

of labor and otherwise benefit and
protect the workers best interests,

Clinton, Davenport, Des Moines, Du-
buque, Muscatine, Boone, Abba, Cen

brate at Centerville and it is probable
that the union men of this city will
secure special train for the purpose
of transporting the large delegation
from this city. At the next meeting
of the trades and labor assembly, com
mittees will be appointed to make ar
rangements for the transportation and
uniforming of Ottumwas marching
brigade, which will participate in the

has been engaged and will accompany
| the delegation from this city. Center
