CITY COUNCIL

The trades labor union sent in a
communication to the city council
last evening requesting that in fran
chises granted street car companies
and telephone companies there be
provisions made for the men to work
the same hours as city employees and
given the same pay.
The city federation of women's
clubs requested, the council to set
aside a room providing a place for
juvenile prisoners at the city hall
and that an officer be provided to look
after such prisoners. The request
was referred t othe municipal COM
mittee.
]. T. Snyder's ordinance for the es-
tablishment of a free employment
bureau by the city was passed. The
ordinance calls for special officer at
a salary of $40 per month.
The subject Of charter revision
was taken up by the council and a
series of meetings will be held for
the purpose of discussing the same.
The Washington Water Power COM
pany wants an ordinance passed
which will grant them the privilege
of constructing a track on Maple
street from the Northwest boulevard
to Nichols avenue then west to the
northwest boulevard. This is the or
dinance which clashes with the Spo-
kane Traction company's application
for franchise and over which the
two companies are fighting.

LABOR OFFICERS

Officers were elected last night at
the meeting Of the Falls City Trades
and Labor Assembly to serve for the
ensuing six months. Before the cleo
ton began President Joyce said:
1--WE congratulate ourselves on the
growth of the Falls City Trades and
Labor assembly. We started our or
ganization with only 10 unions. Now
we have II unions that are affiliated
with us, an dali Of them are in good
standing. 1t can be said that our or
ganization is composed of the most
conservative union men in the city.
On our withdrawal from the Spokane
trades council we eliminated all dis
cussion Of politics from our assembly,
and that has been the great secret
of our growth.
I'VE have accomplished great
deal during the last six months Of
our existence. We have settled sew
eral labor disputes and hope to settle
many more. We have an average
attendance Of from 2S to 80 delegates
Of the unions. but should have 80 or
60 delegates"
The meeting was harmonious ex-
cept when President Joyce roasted
the Spokane Record because of recent
untrue statements. The paper was
repudiated as an official organ.
These officers were elected: Presi-
dent, Thomas Joyce Of the bartenders'
union; vice president, William Quinn
of the machinists' union; correspond
ng and recording secretary, George
Cummings Of the walters union;
financial secretary, H. s. Wilkinson of
the cigarmakers union; treasurer,
John Hunt Of the stationary engi-
neers.

DISCUSS
CHARITY

Members Of the humane society
and others interested in charitable
work were entertained last night by
General Secretary Alexander Johnson
of the national conference of chari-
ties and corrections in speech at the
city court room last night.
Mr. Johnson declared the admins
tering of Spokane charity is wrong
and that the giving of dinners with
out investigation and the rendering
of help without looking into the cases
Is bad from the public and individual
standpoint.
Rev. J. w. Hindley declared he did
not favor the closing Of saloons under
the ordinance so long as homeless
men were compelled to sleep on bar
room floors.
II know" said Mr.. Hindley. that
these men are weaklings-that they
have squandered their substance, and
that their condition is largely their
own fault. but that does not lessen
my duty to help my weaker brother.
