remarks dealt with the birth and his
tory of the American flag. which the
speaker proved was older than the
colors of England, France. Germany

launched into the present political
status of the nation, predicting that
many of those assembled to pay trib-

i great revolution by which a govern

government by which every man Will
have a voice, resulting in cleaner
and less despotic republic

hardest problems is to keep his eli

within the means at hand The archi-
tect comes In direct contact with all
OF the mechanics and tradcsmen
whose work enters into the construc-
tlon and finishing OF building, and he
must make provision for all that goes
into that building, but for all ordi-

substitute something inferior to his
original conception of his design be-
cause of being hampeTed by INSULT.
Client means.
We have no grievance against the
union; in fact. we believe it to be the
proper thing If properly handled. but
it Is abusing a good principle. the
principle of cooperation, when men
form a league TO increase the wage of
certain class of mechanics general
", making no distinction between de-
serving and undeseryiDg ones. for
how many Of our carpenters are real
ly worth $3.50 a day 1t might be
argued that they are required to learn
their trade thoroughly before they are
accepted by the union, but The truth
Ol the UldlttT Is lOdl Il ldTB6 DcTCGut-
age of them are not worth a cent over
$3.50 day, and an architect is In
pretty good position to judge of the
merits OF work done by different men.
If a man can really earn $3.50 or S5 a
day, or even Sc. pay it to him, for he
Will do twice the work of an ineXperi-
enced man, and do 1t better. but to
force the building public to pay man
who has been doing carpenter work
less than six months the same money
that the skilled mechanic draws. is to
our point manifestly unjust.
Therefore. it seems to rs that in
stead of calling strike with all It's
resultant disadvantages, ii would be
much better and certainly falrer TO
grade the men in the union and pay
them as much as they are capable OF
earning, and with the scarcity oil first
class mechanics which IS prevalent
generally. contractors would be glad
10 pay $3.50 OF even So a day for
man If he could earn the money.
