PUBLIC OPINION.
Editor EVENING NEWS;

An article in the Chronicle last
evening. called to my attention some
| facts regarding the anne matter, as
to the differences between the Build
ing Trades Association and the Jour-
neymen.
Very little is said to the public as
70 what is being done and that little
is said in such a way as to place the
blame upon the other party.
The writer knows that the CORE
snondent of the Chronicle is quite
correct in what he said but did not
| go nearly as far with the case as
believe ne might have done, II ne was
disposed to. .. -,
He is evidently acquainted with
what is going on among the work
men and anxious to tell it but hest
tates for some reason.
All he says is true and much more
might be said in the same line INT
be as true. He and | know that
meetings are being held of the work.
men and things are said and done in
every way possible to prevent getting
together in this matter and the fault
does not lay altogether. with the
leading representatives OF their Or
carnations as we know these men
have tried very hard to effect a set
Element by the arbitration plan, but
were defeated by the inefficient class
of workmen, who, as a rule, are in
the majority and are trying to make
This case end for their particular
benefit and require the bosses TO pay
to them the schedule wages while IN
point of fact they are not worth any
where near the amount and the bet
ter men are made to suffer because
of it.
Is it not a fact, fairly before all,
that so long as a poor workman can
get the wages of a good man, he VIII
not feel it necessary to better MS
ability to work and become an efilc-
lent and capable nan at his trade?
And is it not equally a fact that SO
long as the good workman submits
to this condition of things, that he
must be a sufferer to the extent of
practically letting the poor workman
have a large percentage of the wages
due him. And is he not encouraging
the inefficient man in his position OF
Indifference to becoming a better
tradesman.
I 1t is certainly a wrong to the pub
lie to allow the slow and poorer work
man to 'set the paces' for accomplish
ing work, of whatever trade he may
represent.
We have many good and honest
Workmen who are al anxious and
willing to do an honest days work as
ever, but they are hindered by the
majority vote of the man who cares
only for putting in time and getting
his pay. The real question before
the people today is, not that of wages
as the posses are willing to pay good
and proper wages to every good
workman, but not to the man who
has yet to be told how he should dc
a certain piece of work or who has
to be constantly watched and then
has to have much of his work done
over by himself or some other and
more skillful mechanic.
There is an easy way of classify
ing all branches of labor and giving
every man his due as he is worthy OF
his hire.
We could say much more but feel
it unnecessary at this time and trust
both sides of this controversy will
think fairly and well and come to an
! agreement, satisfactory and oon

BUILDING FOOD
To Bring the Babies Around.


When little human machine (or o
large one) goes wrong, nothing is so
important as the selection of food to-
bring It around again.
my little baby boy fifteen months
old had pneumonia, then came brain
fever, and no sooner had he got over
these than he began to cut teeth and,
being so weak, he was frequently
thrown into commissions" says Col
orado mother.
II decided a change might help, so
took him to Kansas City for visit.
When we got there he was so very
weak when he would cry he would
sink away and seemed like he would
die.
When I reached my sisters Tome
she said Immediately that we must
feed him Grape-Nuts and, although I
had never used the food. we got some
and for few days gave him just the
Juice Of Grape-Nuts and milk. He
got stronger so quickly we were soon
feeding him the Grape-Nuts itself and
In wonderfully short time he fat
tened right up and became strong and
well.
THAT showed me something worth
knowing and. when later ON my girl
came, l raised her on Grape-Nuts and
size Is a strong healthy baby and has
been. You will see from the little
photograph I send you what a strong,
chubby youngster the boy is now. but
he didn't look anything like that be-.
fore we found this nourishing food.
Grape-Nuts nourished him back to
strength when he was so. weak he
couldn't keep any other food on his
stomach" Name given by Postum
Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
All children can be built to q moro
sturdy and healthy condition upon
Grape Nuts and cream. The food con-
tains the elements nature demands,
from which to make the toft gray
filling in the nerve centers and brain.
A well-fed brain and strong, sturdy
nerves absolutely insure . healthy
body.
