BRICKLAYERS
ARE LOCKED OUT
One Hundred and Fifty Men Re-
turn to Work.

The BrickIayers' union Is having
trouble with the Denver contractors as
we'll as MISUNDERSTANDING with their In
ternationaI union. Last Friday morning
the brick.ayers were locked out BY all
the members of the Master Brickfayers'
associations in Denver.
The bricklayers have had contract
with the master bricklayers which has
extended over several years and which
expired March 1. The bricklayers have
demanded that they be given the wash
ing down of walls, which work was for
merly done by laborers. This and other
slight differences have caused more or
less friction between the bosses and the
organization and last Friday the brick
layers were locked out to bring the
trouble to head, it is said
Following this trouble a committee
communicated with their international.
unofficially, it is said, and asked advice
The International advised returning to
work, and Saturday morning $50 br1ck-
layers took that action and caused great
turmoil in the ranks Of the organization
The trouble has grown out of the ex-
piration of the old contract and negotia-
tons for a new one. The contractors
have virtually refused to negotiate until
certain demands are eliminated and the
bricklayers think these features vital to
the future welfare of their organization.
The bricklayers held lively meeting
Monday night The chief topic dis
cussed was the refusal of the contractors
to enter into an agreement with the men
for the coming year.
A committee was finally appointed to
bring conditions in Denver to the atten-
ton of the international officers Of the
bricklayers. Until reply has been re-
ceived, it is not likely that any definite
action will be taken by the Denver local

The Jones bill gives the right OF issu-
ing permits to children to work al dan
gerous occupations to the superintenu-
ents of schools. said permits being re
yocable by the labor department by max
ing application to the county court All
permits must be kept on file In the iapor
commissioners ohice.
The Lafferty bill grants the same right
to the superintendents of schools, out
says the permits may be revoked py tne
said principals or by the Society for the
prevention of Cruelty to Animals and
Children
The Bulletin is unalterably opposed to
the Lafferty bill and believes the Jones
bill to be far superior in every way The
Jones bill has been reviewed by the at
torney general and he expresses himself
as satisfied with its constitutionality- The
Lafferty bill is lacking in the same way
as was the woman's eight hour bill that
was declared unconstitutional 1t did not
give the details and its title was defect
i've. II also contained a child labor pro
vision. and the unconstitutionality OF the
bill as it related to women also killed
the child labor provision. We have no
child labor law on the statute DOCKS ex-
cept the one declared imperative
The I.afferty bill gives the power of re-
volxing permits TO the Society for the Pre-
yention of Cruelty to Animals and Chill
dren. and from that society there is no
appeal-therefore the right of a day in
court is denied; and on that ground the
supreme court decided the woman's
eight-hour law unconstitutional in the
case OF Burcher VS. People. Al Colo, 4s5.

introduced in the house and senate and
are Identical. II passed they will create
the office of state plumbing inspector.
provide for the necessary expenses and
fix a penalty for the violation of the
same. They are good bills and should be
well supported. The sanity of every city
in the state is dependent on the plumb
ing and sewage systems and the passage
of the bills is vital
These bills are on the calendar and
will come up early next week Tor con-
sideration in both branches. In the house
Mr.. Ashton will be a staunch supporter
of the bill he has introduced. and in the
senate DR.. Sharpley and Harvey Garman
Will make a fight for its adoption
The bill reads as follows:
Section /. There shall be and is here
by established and created in this state
the office of state inspector of plumbing.
Sec. .. 1t shall be the duty of the
governor within ten days after the pas
sage and approval of this act to appoint
a citizen of this state to fill the office of
state inspector of plumbing for term
of two years and to hold Office until such
n time as his successor may be appointed
and qualified. The person so appointed
must be a practical sanitary plumber.
with at least ten years experience as a
journeyman. He shall have passed the
usual examination required of journey
men plumbers and possess certihcate
of journeyman plumbers and possess
certincate of competency certifying to
his ability to do or inspect work in build
inrs and other places, SO as to be in ac-
cordance with recognized sanitary prin-
ciples.
Sec. 5. 1t shall be the duty OF said in
spector of plumbing to annually, or as
often as instructed by the, state board
of health. inspect any and all public or
private institutions, sanitariums. hospi-
tails, schools. prisons, factories, work
shops or places where men. women and
are or might be employed. and
to condemn all unsanitary or defective
plumbing that may be found In connec-
ton Herewith. and to order such
changes in the method of construction of
the drainage and ventilation as well as
the arrangement of the plumbing appli-
ances as may be necessary to insure the
safety of the public health.
Sec. 4. He shall hold himself in readi-
ness ut any and all times to go to any
part of the state. II so directed by the
state board OF health. for the purpose of
making sanitary inspection Of any
buildings or other place that they have
reason to believe is in such n condition
as to be n menace to the public health.
He is not to Interfere with the actions of
local inspectors of plumbing In cities
where such are employed. except In
cases where the ordinance is imperative.

maintained and oficered, and of what
use is it?
This society is an offspring or pat
termed after the famous Gerry Society of
New York A handful of rich people or
their agents have gotten together and
formed this society and elected officers.
The legislature of the state of Colorado
has granted police powers and other
privileges to this society. The society
can appoint officers and give them the
right to enter your home. and they are
answerable to nobody. The society can
send. and is now sending, gunner into
the Northern Colorado coal fields to pro
tect the property of the rich coal oper-
ators who are employing children in
their mines. Instead of protecting the
children they are protecting the capital
lists who are running the lives Of children
in the underground workings.
The Lafferty bill will put into the hand
of this all-powerful society the control of
every child in the state.
Just think of it, A society which Is
self-perpetuating the members of which
elect their own successors; which goes
on forever: which is answerable to no
body; of which the governor is a mem
ber ex-offcio-without voice or vote; a
society controlled by the big moneyed
of every child in the state-iust think of
it
And the Lafferty bill will give this so
ciety such poweri
The Lafferty bill is a damnable instru-
ment and should not pass.
Il jeopardiZes the interests of every
working man. woman and child in the
state as well as the future welfare of the
commonwealth.
