DECLARE WAGES Low; WILL
BRING PRACTICAL
MEN.

Stirred to action by their alleged
inability to procure wages that are
in keeping with the present cost of
living, or even in comparison with
the prices paid to men of their pro-
fession in eastern cities, the butch
ers Of Spokane are organizing into
union A number of the local
butchers have already signed up as
charter members, and request for
charter will soon be made.
Butchers, q butchers helpers and
all men. who assist in preparing
meat for the market will be taken
into the union A marked increase
in the scale of pay for these men
will undoubtedly result
Meat is at its top notch price in
Spokane at the present time, and,
because of 4 lack of rigid laws and
an evident leniency on the part of
the city meat inspectors, the deal
ers have no serious handicap in the
accumulation of snug profits. Their
profits are snug enough, at least,
to enable them to pay better scale
of wages to their employees, those
behind the union movement de-
clare.
With the formation of butchers
union, It is declared that men of
more experience will be employed
In many of the Strengthening estab-
lishmCnts. and the city will doubt
lessly profit generally thereby A
movement Is also declared to be on
foot BY some of the Spokane butch
crs, to secure the passage of state
law that will compel the master
butchers to employ practical men
In their shops and to bring about
more sanitary conditions all the
way around.
At 4 the present time there are
men working In responsible posi-
tons in meat shops about the city
who could not pass butchers
examination under some of the
strict, eastern laws, because they
are not thoroughly experienced in
the butchering business, Men whC
will be members of the butchers
union in Spokane are also anxious
to secure the passage Of law that
will prevent the killing of stock
