Why They Need a Union.

The street car men of Salt Lake
have formed union for the protec-
ton of their mutual interests. 1t is
the old case there of the laborlng
man against powerful corporation,
and the man goes to the wall. 1t is
useless to say that the company will
do what is right by it's employees
without compulslon, for that isn't
the spirit of corporations. That
there has been dissatisfaction among
the employees Is evidenced by forty
SIX discharges during the past
month, and that also affords a sam
pie Of the respect and attention
their grievances command. Such
wholesale discharges indicate fire.

In Salt Lake 1t is claimed the street
employees are among the most poor
ly paid in the country, and in some
cases they are compelled to be away
from home from fourteen to sixteen
hours, switched out and lying at
terminals or sidetracks during all
but nine hours of the time, which is
all they get paid for. Should the
men be blamed for uniting to secure
a fair days work for fair days
