THIS
AMENDMENT
Charter Provision For
City Printing Should
be Left Unchanged.

"rhe city council shall annually let
all of the legal advertising to the low
est bidder, who shall give bonds to the
city i'll such sum as may be fixed and
approved by the city council, to per-
form the conditions of the contract. and
all such legal advertising shall be done
in the paper receiving the contract, such
paper to be a daily, semi-weekly or
tri-weelly newspaper printed in the
City of Everett. Such paper receiving
the contract shall be styled and be the
city official newspaper. Section No.
7G of the city charter of the City of
Everett.
We ask our readers to read the above
paragraph carefully because it is one
which you will be asked to amend at
the coming city election. You will note
that this section makes it mandatory
on the council to let the contract for
city printing to the lowest bondfide bid
der. The trainers of the charter wished
to make it impossible for the city to
be mulchted out of considerable sum
ON city printing through any combina-
ton which might be formed between
the papers and the city council.
The voters are now asked to amend
this section of the charter so that it
may be let to daily, weekly or semi
weekly in the discretion of the council;
provided that it must be let to the
lowest bidder in one of the classes 1t
is not hard to imagine weekly paper
land The Journal is in that CLASSY eff
fectually shut out by the passage of
such an amendment even though the
weekly paper was the lowest bidder by
a wide margin.
The different amendments submitted
to the voters will be on the ballots by
number only and we ask you to vote an
emphatic No on Proposed Amendment,
No. 6.

POOR WAGES AND PROSTITUTION

The Consumers League Of New York
City, at meeting called to consider the
welfare of girls working in shops, was
addressed by Miss Mary R. Sanford,
who has been investigating hours,
wages, etc, on behalf of the league.
1--WE can't be surprised" she said,
when these girls are found ON the
street. A girl can't live on 81, s. or So
a week. These evils can best be rene
died by the consumer-the customer.
The thing to do is to stir public senti-
ment."
The two points the meeting was called
to consider specially were how to get
Saturday half holidays for shop girls
in the summer and how to put a stop to
evening shopping in the Christmas holi-
days. Miss Sanford told some of the
things she saw in the Christmas rush
time.
Il saw" she said, "a girl-and she
was one of many-leave the store at
o'clock at night, and she had worked
since 8 o'clock that morning, and
would have to be there at s o'clock the
next morning. In the holiday time |
have known sales girls to take their
supper hour to battle their feet in the
toilet room, that they might endure the
strain of standing through the evening.
1t is said that stores must be open ev-
enings in holiday time to give work
ing women chance to shop. / feel
that if women buy presents at the eX-
pense of such strain on the part of
their fellow women-well, they had bet
ter not buy them"
Mrs. Florence Kelly said there were
so many girls just out of public school
seeking work that those who had places
had to take what they could get, at
is marvellous that SO many of them can
keep straight" she said. ''But if they
can keep righteous they can't keep

OPEN SHOP GRAFTERS.

Walter s. Rogers, private secretary
bassy was interviewed in San Francis
co recently Having a wide knowledge
of affairs in Pittsburg he was question
ed on the graft situation there and in
cidentally told a few things about the
steel strike that should interest our
readers. From the San Francisco Bulle-
tin we quote as follows:
THE upward trend of public opinion
in the last few years has been illus
trated by the recent strike of the work
men in the shops of the Pressed Steel
Car Company. Among the capitalist
classs in Pittsburg there has been for
years an antagonism to labor organiza-
tious. But even among big manufac-
turers there was a sentiment against
the company in the strike. They did
not like to see labor win, but they
hated worse to see the corporation win.
For the company was playing the
old game around Pittsburg of grating
on it's men. 1t evolved new scheme
of paying its men, so that they never
knew how much was coming to them.
They had way of throwing out all ie-
fective work and docking all the men
clear along the line who had had any
thing to do with a defective job. Thus
a man who had done his work we'll
would suffer for some one else's mis-
take.
"The men were not organized, but
simply walked out and hung together
1t was revelation to the manufact-
urers 1t showed them the uselessness
of tsying to crush the unions. If
there are no unions they will neverthe-
less come to a pass where the men win
simply be driven to combine in self de-
fense. Labor News.

to the federation secretary in bringing

MISLEADING
REPORTS
There Is No Shortage of
Skilled Labor at the
Present i'm Evetett.

Two OF the leading dailies in Seattle,
this week, printed what purported to be
news dispatches to the effect that there
was a serious shortage of labor in this
city. Whether these reports were print
ed with the idea that they were boost
ing Everett as a growing city or with
the purpose of flooding this city with
surplus labor, is not known, but we will
charitably assign the former cause.
Such reports from whatever cause can
not help but be harmful as they are
misleading. There has been no serious
shortage in the skilled labor market for
familiar with the building trades con
ditions knows that they fluctuate.
There will be a short period when all
men are employed and then a period
when many of them are idle. There
was short time few weeks ago when
the building trades were short of men
because of the simultaneous beginning
of several large Jobs. But little diff
Guilty was experienced. however in pro-
curing the necessary men from other
cities and at the present time there are
idle men in most of the building trades.
With the winter season almost upon US
and the consequent Stacking off of
building and the cessation of street
work caused by bad weather, it is moth
ing short of a calamity to invite an in
fluX of men to the city. The closing
of the A.-Y.-P. exposition finds many
fasteners in the state who will remain
here during the winter hoping to find
work at their trades. 1t is unfair to
them and to us to represent a condi
tion of things that does not exist and
to send them to this city to join the
ranks of men already idle.
Everyone sincerely hopes that the era
of building will continue during the
months to come as much as weather
will permit but there is no present out
look that would justify the importation
of skilled labor into the. city.
The same news dispatch stated that
the trades council had imported skilled
and unskilled labor to meet the demand.
This is an error as the council has had
no occasion to do any such thing. When
the work grows to such a volume that
local artisans cannot handle it we will
gladly welcome outside help but it is
the policy of the trades council and
building trades council to keep their
own men who live here and pay taxes
to support the city, at work first

PRESIDENT CASE IN CITY.

c. II. Case, of Seattle, president of
the State Federation of Labor, was in
the city few hours on his way home
from Bellingham where he spent sew
eral days in the interest of the fedora
tion. Mr.. Case reports that the year
has been very satisfactory one for
the federation and that many unions
previously not affiliated have come in.
Mr.. Case goes in a short time to Spo-
kane and will endeavor to procure the
affiliation of unions in the Eastern
Washington metropolis that do not al
ready belong. The report of the sec
retary treasurer of the federation at
the next convention win show a splen-

by the Ohio Copper, but in time by

possible, It seems that IT is inevitable.
Should the tunnel ever extend across

be sent through the mountain by the
