UNION PAINTERS
LOCKED OUT
TROUBLE OVER JOURNEYMEN
TAKING WORK OUTSIDE
THE SHOPS LEADS TO DIS
CONTINUANCE OF WORK.

In II paint shops of this city,
the union painters were paid off
and locked out this morning by
members of the Master Painters
alliance. after it had been decided
that an agreement on existing diff
ferences could not be effected
without a series of meetings by
both sides.
Trouble has been brewing be-
tween the union men and the mas
ter painters for about three weeks
over wages and the day labor
proposition. First the bosses kick
ed because many of the union
painters were taking day labor
during the dull season when work
was not steady in the shops. The
union boys agreed to cease day
labor, providing that their wages
were raised SO cents per day, max
ing it IS instead of $3.50, the pres
ent wage scale. The master paint
ers are reported to have asked the
union men to charge 81 a day
extra for their work by the day
labor plan, and to turn the extra
money into the master painters
treasury. This plan was turned
down cold by the union, and finally
fearing an open breach, the mas
ter painters agreed to pay so cents
a day extra to the union men to
get them to cut out the day work
in other shops.
The promise was no sooner
made than it was broken. and the
present state of circumstances is
the result.
Union men say that only a few
nonunion painters are in the city
at the present time, and express
little. fear of trouble from this
source. However, it is rumored
today that number of nonunion
painters are to be brought in by
the master painters from Portland.
A meeting of the master painters
is to be held tomorrow morning.
1t is believed by both sides that
the trouble will be settled within
two or three days.

to be construed as rejecting on the
management of the society, but as
1t had been represented to him
that the Home of the Friendless
and the st. Joseph orphanage, to
whom the county was making a
monthly allowance, were capable
of caring for all the children, in
the interest of economy they wish
ed the children to go there. AS to
this we believe further considera-
ton of facts in the case will show
that the financial cost to the coun-
ty of family home provided for
at an average of $50 and an annual
cost of $3.50 per year for institu-
tional care, a balance certainly not
against the home care. We have
no controversy with the orphan
ages of this city. They are con-
tinually filled with children who
need the care of the institutions
for time until parents or rela-
tives can provide for them. But is
it in the interest of a better hui

children when at this very time
