STRIKE AT THE
Y. w. g. A. BUILDING
Men Refuse to work With Non-union
Carpenters and Walk Of Job
This Morning.

Union bricklayers this morning
quit work at the new Y. w. c. A.
building, refusing to work with non
union carpenters, according to a lab
or official here today.
1t is said that the bricklayers were
instrumental In getting the eight
hour day on the work and that the
non-union carpenters were included
In the new rule, but that the builder
continued paying them for ten hour
day. This was no. to the liking Of
the members of the bricklayers or
ganization and this morning they re-
fused to work with, them.
Members of the labor organizations
said today: that they believed the
trouble would be arranged without
difficulty and the men would return
to work soon.
There were no workmen at the
building today, but this was said to
be ON account Of the weather and
that work would be resumed tomor-
row.

1T may be in two years, it may be

AS president Taft concluded. Mr..
McKinlek took the floor, declaring
that he must be permitted to make
his speech before he forgot it. While
testifying before the senate commit
tee which investigated campaign con-
tributions last October he said that
he had jokingly remarked that until
eight years ago he was an honest
man. To his establishment, he added,
when he got back to his district he
found that the voters were taking the
statement seriously and the country
was placarded with it by his oppon-
ents.
Il am getting cld,' Mr.. Mckinley
continued, .tbut I am learning things,
and one of them is that 1t does not
do to joke in politics. Some of the
people around here are singing swan
songs, but there will be no swan
songs for me-"
uncle Joe" Cannon related several
instances where opportunity had been
presented for him to make his for
tune, but which he had failed to en-
brace. He sang song, which met
with such hearty applause that he
pitched into another tune and to its
accompaniment executed jig.
Among the more than 200 persons
present were to be found democratic,
progressive and republican members
of both houses Of congress.

Statement Made That Compromise
Would be Made In the selec-
ton Of New County
Clerk.
A DANGEROUS POSITION
Supervisors Fear Situation That
Might Arise With Two New
Men In Charge Of
Offices.

1t was stated this afternoon
member Of the board of supervisors
that a compromise would be effected
in the appointment of clerk to sue
coed c. B. Lake and that o. R. John
ston, present deputy clerk, will be re-
tanned at least until the end of the
present year.
Mr.. Johnston is at present in charge
of the clerks Office here and another
deputy is in charge Of the Office at
Fort Madison. 1t is almost certain
that one Of the conditions to be
made in the appointment of the new
clerk by the supervisors will be that
Mr.. Johnston be appointed deputy.
This decision comes because of the
situation that might arise with two
new men in charge of the clerks
Offices here and at Fort Madison.
The books at the local Office are in
very bad shape. Aside from the
shortage in accounts there were no
|entries or wrong entries made in
many of the records. In one district
court record it is said that there was
no entry made for the last six months.
| 1t would be serious condition to
have two men unfamiliar with the Of
fees in charge.
The supervisors can not appoint a
new clerk until they receive the
formal report the examiner makes
to the county auditor which will
t;be tomorrow or Wednesday,. Such is
the opinion Of the county attorney
That they have practically agreed on
the appointee is stated but the name
| is not divulged. There have been a
large number of candidates for the
position.
No intimation can yet be given as
to the shortage of County Clerk Lake
