Local Sentiment Does Not Approve
the Endorsement of VIM. R.
Hearst for President.
Objection Not to Hearst, but to Dis
position to Dabble in
Politics.

Dissatisfaction is expressed by members
of local building trades unions at the ac-
ton Of the convention of the National
Building Trades Council, held recently In
Denver, Col, in indorsing the candidacy
of William r. Hearst for president Of the
United States. That the affiliated unions
will not be bound by anything which may
plunge the building trade unions into poll
tics is shown by the following expression
Of opinion from one high in national labor
circles, and who, it is conceded locally,
voices the sentiments Of a vast majority
of the rank and file Of labor unlonlsts
turnout the country:
IT have nothing against Mr.. Hearst. He
Is possibly a very fine gentleman, but
think the National Building Trades Coun-
oil overstepped its authority when 1t COM
mitted our organization to the 1ndorse-
ment of man for political office, and
know that our membership will repudiate
its action.
IT do not propose that any organization
with which we are affiliated shall dictate
the political policy of our members, and If
any resolutions come to Minneapolis quot
ing US in this matter wish to denounce
them" .-s 49,.
The National Building Trades Council
has made an important change in the con-
stitution affecting per capita assessments
for strike and lockout benefits. Hereto
fore such assessments were levied upon
the total membership of all national and
international locals affiliated with the
council. Under the new system this as
sessment will be limited to unions which
are affiliated with the local councils thai
are members of the National Building
Trades Council.

posed strike. voted, three weeks ago, not
to ask for an increase in wages this
fall while the term "grubbers" was pre-
yiously unheard Of.
The Packers and Nailers' union, No. l.,
will ask that all packers and nailers get
the regular scale Of wages. This demand
affects only about 1 per cent Of the mem
bers of this union, and these are employed
in two mills.
Announcement Is made that the -four
leaders will renew their demand for an
eight hour day at So per day, which, the
workmen assert can be granted by a
very slight increase in then number OF
men employed. No time has been set
for the new scale to go into effect and
strike is not expected.
Local unions No. IL, 16 and 20 of Ce-
dar Rapids, Iowa, have closed a satisfac-
tory agreement with the American Cerea
company, by which every employee who
works by the day receives an increase Of
at least 10 cents, while some OF the work
men getting lower wages will receive from
Is to 20 cents increase a day.

GOOD ADVICE,

Constipation clouds more lives than al
most any other disease. One Of the great
est orators once gave this most impor-
tant advice: Keep your bowels open and
YOUR head COOL" Any sensible person
will agree that keeping the bowels open
and cleansed is absolutely essential to
good health. Don't take pills and harsh
purgatives that only aggravate the
trouble. but try Chase's Constipation
Tablets. They will cure you to stay
cured. These tablets are put up in nea,
watch shaped bottles which just fit the
vest pocket Price twenty-five cents.

JUST A RUMOR
Story OF Averted Strike In Mills Without
.. ~. Foundation. r

A sensational story to the effect that
by the closing down of the flour mills
this week strike Of the oilers and grub
bers" had been averted, is denounced by
local officials of the Flour Mill Employees
union as wholly without foundation, and
does the mill employees great injustice.
Since their inception, the milling crafts
unions have been careful to transact any
business concerning wage scales, etc,
with their employers in a business-like
manner, and such snap Judgment as the
article in question implied was never even
thought of. John M. Finley, president OF
the International Mill Employees union
Is emphatic in his denial of the state
ment, and is at a loss to account for its
origin, Mr.. Finley said the oilers who
were mentioned as parties to the pro-

what FiIipino Thought.

Luke b. Wright, who has succeeded
William I'll. Taft as governor of the
Philippines, wrote recently to friend
in New York an interesting description
of the habits OF the Filipinos.
He said, among other things, that
some of the natives fight not only
cocks, but crickets, bats, and all man.
ner of strange creatures. He told q
story, current in Manila, about a Fill.
ipino servant and cock fight.
This servant had been delegated by
his master to carry two cocks to q
place where they were to fight against
two other birds. The man put the
cocks in a bag together, and, when he
arrived with them at the fighting
ground and opened the bag, it was
found that they had killed each other.
His master upbraided him. Why
he said. were you such a fool as to
put both cocks in the same bag"
Il thought the servant answered.

enough not to hurt each other. when
they were both going to fight rn the
one side. Boston Post.
