mat will tie them up or enforce action
On the matter of strikes. 1t Is theoreu-
cal rather than otherwise.

ne Local Nojs, National League of Mu-
,lclans IN Calder's music store IN 1880,
and was reasonably successful until the
league Itself got into trouble and into
the courts. and then finally out Of exist

special provision can be made as to
him. But as the same time, no trouble
whatever Is anticipated.

out Of tc7n but Mr. Mcmillan stated,
rs a matter OF opinion, that as Mr..
Christensen has the contract for the
music at the resort for the season, and
Mr Christensen and his men are In the
union. why Il IS union AFFAIR, and
that is all there Is to It. He could not
see that the unioniNng OF local pro-
