BRIDGE WORKERS AND WATERS FALL IN LINE,
WITH FIGHT AGAINST HEARST PAPERS

VIII n FlN1E / AGAIN
Various unions throughout the
city are continuing to condemn the
action of the Building Trades Council
and Simon O'Donnen, president, in
connecting that body with the nom
union Hearst papers in the issuing Of
a labor edition of the Examiner.
A number of the unions have al
ready notified members that a fine
will be imposed upon members
known to read either the American
or Examiner.
At a meeting Of Walters Union,
Local No. $50, a motion was carried
placing a fine Of 81 on any member
for reading a Hearst paper.
The Bridge and Structural Iron
Workers, Local No. 1, has fallen in
line with the fight now being made
against the Hearst papers by union
labor.
At last nights meeting, held in
HodcarTieTs' Hall, they passed the
following resolution:
Whereas, The Chicago Federation
of Labor, representing organized Ia
Dor in Chicago, for good and suf1-
Gent reasons placed William Ran
dolph Hearst and his Chicago papers,
the Examiner and the American, on
the unfair list for having locked out
union pressmen, and for running his
pressrOonA with scabs; and,
Whereas, Said papers. are still run
on presses manned by scab labor;
and,
whereas, The Chicago Building
Trades Council, at the instance Of
President Simon O'Donnel, has en-
tered into a business deal with Viii

tives to publish an alleged trades

The Nance Case.
The Holly Chieftain is respon-
sible for the following:

The Holly Chieftain is respon-
sible for the following:
THE United States govern
ment has secured a decree in u
suit brought by it against Ru-
fus o. Nance of t;aca county,
Colorado, to cancel patent to 100
acres of land purchased by
Nance from the government at u
public sale. 1t was sold as an
isolated tract and Nance was
the only bidder, Offering S1.25
per acre for it. The government
proved that Nance had entered
into an agreement with other
parties whereby all bids except
his own were suppressed so he
could buy in the land for about
one third of it's actual value.
He then sold part of the land to
those with whom he had the a
greement."
1t does seem rather strange
that because you ask your neigh
Dor to stay away and he does it,
that it would be conspiracy;
but that's the way the court
seems to hold in this case,
1t seems to us that by the
same ruling every isolated pat
ent in the county could be .vitiat
ed as there was an implied un-
derstanding between all parties
that no one would bid on an iso-
lated tract in another man s pas
ture or. near his home against
such person.
So thorough was this under
standing between ranchmen and
homesteaders that it amounted
to an agreement, which same
YOU might say was scrupuiously
kept
If such is held to be a con
spiracy, how about the case
where two or more parties out
of spite work or otherwise say.
''iet's bid it up on him. We
don't want it, but he's got to
have it, and we'll make him pay
two OF three times what it's
worth" There have been num-
bers of such cases.
To man up a tree, by the
Nance ruling, it looks as if the
whole west is full of conspiracy
cases.

We don't endorse all OF it, and
