EY'REWRATHY
At RYAN

Officers and members of the big
local Federal unions are wrathy to-
day over statements of David j..
Bryan, condemning Mayor Daggett
in yesterdays Chronicle. They say
Ryan is only airing a grievance he
thinks he has against the admins
tration and the unions combined.
Sas Thomas McKenna. president
of local 1924, of which Ryan was
formerly business agent:
Ryan is represented as one of
the best qualified labor men in the
city. That sounds good when he
has been fired twice from the posi-
ton of business agent for not at
tending meetings and neglecting his
duty. When he was first let out
he got sore and finally we tried him
again. Then We found that he was
working politics instead of for the
union, and out he went again. He
has been hollering ever since.
Il can prove that Ryan boosted
that he is in this campaign for
what there Is in It. He said he

Further, he asked Street Foreman
Tillsch what there would be in 1t
for him to work for Daggett Til
lisch told him he had nothing to
offer and as a result Ryan is dead
against the administration. The
thing about it that makes me sore
is the statement that Ryan Is quail
flied to talk on union labor. He
doesn't even attend meetings and
understand he was in poor stand

non payment of dues.

NO INSPECTION UNTIL
AFTER CITY ELECTION

Publication of unsanitary condi-

aroused a general inquiry in this
city as to conditions here, but the
curious public will have to wait
awhile before finding out whether
their staff of life is just what it
ought to be. It's campaign time.
Most of the bakers say they are

ULTIMAT UNI
TO SHOPS

Unless the electrical contractors
per day for hours, the endorse
ment of the scale by the union will
be withdrawn at midnight tomor-
row.
This IS the notification served
today by the Electrical Workers
union on employers.
The latter accept it as an intima-
ton that If the contested scale is
withdrawn a new one for higher
pay will be submitted.
The present trouble is due to a
refusal of employers TO sign agree
ments covering shop rules as SUBJ
mitted by the unions. The con-
tractors are willing to pay the in
creased wages, but declare they
positively will not sign the agree
ment providing for l helper to ev-
cry 3 jOurneymen. On the other
hand the electrical workers claim
to be assured the support of the
Building Trades alliance and thus
the deadlock holds fast with but
contractor, the Citizens Electric
Co. signed up with the union.
Efforts have been made by the
unsigned shops to procure open
shop workmen from eastern points,
and they state today that within a
few days sufficient number OF
non-union men will be here to re-
sumo work.
uBt the union believes ii con-
trolls the situation on account of
the scarcity of skilled workmen,
and is inclined to force the issue
to settlement. i,

nothing but a casual inspection OF
a bakery or two when he was here
few days ago.
Owing TO the intense heat of the
campaign just now the bakeries, as
well as some other institutions
which have gone uninspected, will
continue so until after the election.
Spokane bakeries generally are
said to be clean and sanitary, but
some of them are not keeping to

W. J. Doust, defeated candidate
for the republican nomination for

Herbert Moore is elected.
