Decline in Building Operations.

According to statement issued by
the Employers Association of Washing,
ton yesterday, there is 46 per cent less
building in that city today than there
was one year ago. Resp onsibility for
for this state of affairs is placed upon
the building trades unions.
The statement was directed to the
property owners of the District of COlum-
bia, who are, it says, "the real parties
to any contract or agreement, for the
reason that it is the owner who must
ultimately pay the full wage cost of con-
struction.
eff the building COSTS" says the
statement, "have reached an almost
prohibitiye point under the rule of Or
gained labor in the Il, because of de-
ceased efficiency and increased restrict
ions and limitations, what can be expec-
ted of it in the future if it finds itself
powerful enough to override every obi
CATION and right and to ignore the de-
cisions If umpires? the contractors are
not only fighting fjr their s.li-respect
and their independence, but their fight
also involves the interests of every prop

TO THE OWNERS OF DOGS.
MAYORIS OFFICE.


Alexandria, Va, June II, 1907.
All persons owning or intending 10 keep
any animal of the Dog or Canine species
should come forward on or before
JUNE TWENTY-FIVE 1907,
and take out license for the same from the
Auditor. After the 30th of June all persons
owing or harboring Dogs without the re-
quired license are subject TO fine as the laws
on the subject require of $500 or $500.
Complaint has been frequently made that
many persons fail to take out their license,
and that others pay on one or two dogs when
owning and harboring more, or who send
such dogs away during the summer months
and bring them back in the fall.
Attention has been called to this evasion Of
the law. and policemen will report all such
cases and fines can be imposed upon those
'yho fail TO take out licenses after trial in the
Police Court.
The police officers will be required to re.
port all violations of this law.
zns'-In order TO avoid any mistakes per.
sons who make application for licenses would
do well to write their names and number of
residence, street, ETC., on card or paper
when making application for licenses to the
Auditor.
