BARRIERS

appointed successor to L. T. Bastien

meantime Bastien continues to hold
down the job. At the convention of the
State Journeymen BARRIERS Association,
recently held in Colorado Springs, John
f. Connolly was unanimously indorsed
for the position. The law prescribes
that one of the three board members
shall be a journeyman barber, appoint
ed upon recommendation of the Journey
men BARRIERS Association. Heretofore
there has never been any delay in COM
plying with these terms. However, it is
said that after Endorsement had been
given Connolly, who is secretary of the
Denver local. Bastien, also a member of
the same union, made application to the
governor for reappointment. This is
given as the reason for Governor Am
mons not having acted in the matter.

PAINTERS.

Members of the Brotherhood of Paint
ers, Decorators and Paperhangers' Union
of New York City are enthusiastic at
the prospect of a general strike of the
$1,000 workers in the union, as they
confidently believe they will be able to
secure their demands in short order. At
a meeting of local No. 3 all the MEM
bers signified their approval of a general
strike unless the bosses at once accede
to the demands made by the interna-
tional While union recognition and
higher wages are included in the de-
mands, the real point at issue is the
question of the right of the employer to
discharge the shop chairman. The union
insists that an agreement be signed pro-
viding that the shop chairman shall be
the last one to be discharged from a
job. Otherwise, the men claim, there is
no possible way of getting grievances
listened to by the employer should any
break out after the dismissal of the
chairman. Employers are vigorously
opposing this clause.

BOILER MAKERS

After more than "A score oil years in
the office, international Secretary
Treasurer Gilthorpe has been retired and
Frank Renemeyer of Lodge 227 of Chi
cago selected to succeed him. Immedi-
ately upon the announcement OF the re-
suit of the vote for secretary treasurer
the following preamble and resolution
was adopted.
Whereas, Our retiring secretary
treasurer has held the position so long
and acceptably to our organization, and
having grown old in service; therefore,
be it
Resolved That Bro. Gilthorpe be re-
tired on an annuity of 81 200 per year,
on condition that he does not take up
any other occupation"
Therefore he can now take it easy
and enjoy a long rest.
Organized labor is often charged with
ingratitude but it cannot be Justly
charged with this offense in this case,
because the prompt action by the con-
vention would be a conclusive refuta-
| tion of such charge, and it is most
gratifying to see this generous loyalty
to one who has been in their service for
so long period. In taking this action
the convention not only set a good ex-
ample for others to follow, but likewise
reflects much credit upon organized la
Dor, and it will place our organization
in favorbale light before the public.
The journal wishes Bro. Gilthorpe many
years in which to enjoy the honors and
emoluments.
The secretary-treasurer Bro. Reine-
meyer comes to us well recommended as
steady, level-headed young man of
sterling qualities and good business abil-
ity, and will no loubt give good ac-
count OF himself. He has held many Of
fices of trust in the organization and
when elected secretary treasurer was
secretary of District 10, which
embraces the Chicago & Northwestern
railroad system, and also corresponding
and financial secretary of Lodge 227 OF
Chicago.-Boilermake Journal.
