Union Men Ordered TO Stop
Work Because One Man
Had Not Paid Dues

The bricklayers and masons working on
the new building being erected for a ma
chine shop for Edmund Bosworth off
Waching street were called off yesterday
by order Of the union. The contractor Is
a man named Martin Of harrington and
he had employed on the structure only
about a dozen bricklayers. The cause Of
calling out the men was that a union
man employed there had failed TO pay his
dues and was nearly two months behind
The men who were laid off were all local
residents and they were gathered to-
gether near the job discussing the matter
I'm bitter way.
They were all staunch union men, but
they criticised the order to strike as un-
warranted and said they believed II was
due TO the Jealousy OF another townsman
they refused TO divuge.
The man whose back dues caused the
commotion is named Goodreau and his
father is also a mason. Both are we'll
known residents, having lived here all
their lives. Both stated, as did their
friends, that Il was simply a matter OF
neglect and IL he had been notified all
would have been settled satisfactorily.

the contractor could not resist, and after

that he had pawned his watch at Provi-

contained lemon. The solution Of the
affair is that there happened to be 4 clerk
employed at the pawn shop who is a
resident of this place. and who was told
that The contractor would call for the
watch. and that is the reason why
small lemon was very nicely packed IN "A
very nice box. Later In the evening the
contractor was handed the watch. but
the lemon cost him the prize of two
watches.

not be able to keep.
