STRIKE WILL END
IN THREE DAYS
Secret Agreement Said to Have
Been Made on Arbitration
Committees Decision.
WILL ABIDE BY REPORT
OF SIX UMPIRES NAMED
Four Hundred Return to Work
Pending Result OF Confer
ence to Be Held.

After an hours conference today IN
the offlce Of the Hedden Construction
Company between representatives of
the Hedden concern and of the striking
Bricklayers and Masons' Unions, Lo-
Gals Nos. 3, 16 and 20. tentative agree
ment, the details of which have been
kept secret. was made by which the
40omen now out on strike might return
to work at o'clock today. Because of

tion to get into communication with all

would come in tomorrow. Frank Daw-
son. chairman of the arbitration board
representatives. and II. S. Gardner

pires, three chosen by the Hedden
Company and three by the strikers,
In three days, both should abide.
I'VE are going back to work" said
Mr.. Dawson, of the arbitration commit
tee, pending arbitration And further
than that he would not give any In
formation.
''It has been decided was the state
nent OF Mr.. Gardner, that all the men
- l.. ID H. ~.
Locals Nos. 3. 16 and 20 shall go back
to work at I o'clock this afternoon.
That is ALL"
The fundamental cause of the strike
Is the sub-Ietting of plastering con-
tracts to New York firms. According
to the contentious of the strikers this
move. besides being O violation of the
union s bylaws, threw many Newark
mechanics out of work. 1t was claimed
that the New York Arms to whom the
contracts were sub-let made a practise
Of bringing over their own labor. In
this way. according to the strikers
the bread was f1guratively taken from
their mouths.
The men have been out since Mon
day. December 27.

ton of the board today depended on
the Endorsement of the three unions

Previous efforts toward the settle-
nlent of the strike have been made.
but until todays meeting ended only
in failure. 1t is understood that the
proposition which was finally agreed
upon today has been under the consie-
eraton of the Hedden company and
the strikers for some time.
When asked for the exact terms Of
the agreement Mr. Gardner refused
fatty to tell anything more than the
bare outline.

NEED UNCLE JESSE

Utah County Voters Won't
Hear of Sending Mr.. Knight
to Legislature.

Utah county is Republican all
through this year Republicans are
united and the ranks of the real work
ers have been increased by many who.
heretofore, have taken little interest
in state campaigns"
This is the statement Of Eph Ho-
mer, county chairman for the Repub-
leans OF Utah county

ly attractive, and the Republican wom-
en- Of the county opened their cam
paign with an enthusiastic and well
attended meeting at headquarters this
afternoon.
Up here in salt Lake I hear some
talk about Uncle Jesse Knight and the
effect on Utah county's vote resulting
from Mr.. Knights candidacy for the
legislature is a matter of no little
speculation. Down home, though.
there is not much speculation, for we
know just about how matters stand.
Needed as a NeighbOr.
THE real situation is this: Uncle
Jesse is a mighty fine old man: a good
nelghbor, and business man who has
6een successful in many lines. We all
like him as a neighbOr. There our
interest stops. for We all like Uncle
Jesse so much personally that we
would not think Of such a thing as de-
prlvlng ourselves OF his presence by
letting him come up 10 salt Lake and
remain even during the short session
Of the legislature"
Speaking of the sentiment of Utah
county regarding the liquor question.
Mr.. Homer said that local option had
been thoroughly tested in Provo and
other parts of the county, and that in
the opinion Of the great majority of
voters, local option is the proper solu-
ton Of the question.
Farmers of our part Of the state
are contented, happy and prosperous.
Prices for fruits and farm products
OF all kinds are good, and in the rural
parts. OF the county the Republicans
will show especially strong gains.
Judging from local conditions in Utah
county, there is no reason why any
Republican should desert his party.
while there are many and pertinent
reasons why those who have followed
Democratic prophets should return to
the fold OF Republicanism and be able
TO say after election: L helped to con-
tinue prosperity with my vote"
