TO THE PUBLIC.

There has been a rumor about town
today OF this new organization OF
United Brotherhood OF Carpenters and
Joiners' Union, which has not yet been
quite organized but which will be in
few days. The rumor spread over
the city today is that tie contractors
must pay wages and give us hours as
we demand. Now this is untrue When
ever this local union demands changes
in hours and wages the good people
and contractors OF Bryan will be noti-
fed OF the fact sixty to ninety days
ahead before such change is made. We
mean to do business strictly, and
strictly in business way. Now, there
are some mechanics who say: why,
they take everybody who works at the
trade We are bound TO take in all
men depending on this class of work
for livelihood. All men who can not
hold a first-class job may have a dis
pensation card. On the other hand, II
We could allow no one but first-class
mechanics to become members. il
would be but short time until all the
carpenters would die and the appren-
tees would have no chance to learn
the trade. Now,-why Is il that a man
who sells his daily labor for his daily
bread would not come into an organi-
cation of his trade? The United Broth
erhood cares for all misfortunes. dis
ability, accidents, sickness, etc, and
stands by one another to the end. It
also has funeral expense.
IL is rumored today that several
union men have lost their jobs on ac-
count of their organization. We are
sorry, indeed, to hear that we have
caused such disturbance, as we are
only trying to do good to the mechanic.

Bryan, and hope to hear better news
in the near future.

Whole Fails to Reach Salts
factory Conclusion.

After debating The various conditions or
the proposed franchise for the salt Lake
&c Los Angeles Railroad company 10 come
into the heart of the city, the city coun-
ell meeting i'm committee Of the whole
last night. found itself at the close In
prac cticaIly tbc same position as IL was
when it began. When the matter came
up counsel for the Saltair Railroad com
pany declared that the company could
not and would not accept the franchise
with the proposed amendments requiring
the widening OF the yladuct on North
Temple street over the Oregon Short
Line tracks, and the hauling OF the clty's
garbage free Of charge.
The company took ihc stand that the
city had dedicated North Temple street
to the Oregon Slmrt Line Railroad COM
pany and that IL was impossible for the
Saltair company to enlarge the viaduct.
Furthermore. II was declared that the
cost would be probibitve. and that if the
condition were forced upon the company
the franchise would not be accepted,
With reference To the hauling oil the gar
baSe, tho company thought that the con :
ditions OF the old franchise, that il should
declared that the matter of hauling 1T
free for fifty years twithstanding the
fact that the city was rapidly growing,
was entirely out Of the question.
Representatives of the residents Of the
west side appeared before the council and
protested against the franchise being
