Labor Papers Version Of the Strike at
the Present Time.

tAS AASnShA AAAaSs
The Vermont Union Signal Of to.day's
Issue gives the following account d
conditions in the slate belt. where The
men have been On strike for long
while:
Fair Haven, VI, Feb, r. There is
nothing startling 70 record the slate
strike situation this Week, neither in
Fair Haven nor in Poultney, although
the association bosses have been extreme.
! ~ busy Of hate circulating all sorts Of
ugly rumors concerning the alleged weak
heartedness Of the Poultney boys, who,
II viii be remembered, are now on strike
at the Mathews plant in that town.
No one pays the slightest attention to
such stories, however his memory run
ming back to the yarns these same bosses
used 10 spin about the boys here when
their strike first started. The union men
OF Pouitney came from the same rugged
stock as the men who have put mp such
a magnificent fight here, and that stock
usually breeding fighters, not squealers,
the poultney boys will undoubtedly hold
their end up for a while.
Despite the fact that the union IS
in the tenth month Of its strike for a
shorter workday, the strike pay Of all
married men has been increased to $500
week, this action being taken at the
last meeting Of the local unions as Il
result OF the splendid aid rendered them
BY American Federation of Labor organi-
cations throughout the country. That
boasted starving stunt proposed by the
association doesn't appear to work as
slick as twas thought it would ten
months ago
Record another unqualified denial
Of that old chestnut Of the bosses, where
in they seek to make it appear that the
union demands the right to have its
officers employ and discharge all work
men on fair Jobs as prerequisite to
settling the present strike. This makes
about sixty denials Of the foolish yarn,
and although II IL the most inane tom
myrot ever conceived Of by mortal man.
there are professedly intelligent people
ii this district who still profess to be-
Iieye that such is the case"
