The efforts of the C. A r. for re

with success. Early in the season,

opened up with the officials of the
Southern Pacific, but the best fare
which could be secured was 1850 from
this city.
The matter was taken up by +. II.

"The contractors say they do not

They know as well as we do, and it is

about the present conditions. The

contractor will hire nOn-Union help in
place Of union men if he can. The
contractors say they cannot get enough
union men. That is not so. There are
plenty of union men to do all their
work If they wanted to employ them.
But they don't want union men.
1T is on this point that we have on"

The contractors. on the other hand,
assert that they do not make any dis
union men when they employ their

clare. is men who are able to do the
work and when these men can be
found Il matters not TO them whether
they belong to the union or not. They
declare that there are not enough union
men in town to do all the work, and i
becomes necessary to employ non

The contractors declare that if the
