machinists Still Pending

Denver Brieklayers' Union No. / has
gained wage increase OF 81 per day,
effective March /, nex.. announcement
WAS made at Monday nights meeting in
the Club building that practically all OF
Inc brlck contractors in the city had
signed the new wage scale. which means
an increase OF the present scale from So
to 81 per day.
On Monday, January "a, the union, at
a regular meeting, adopted the new
scale. Notice of tins action was at once
filed with the State Industrial Commis-
sion, as required under the new Colo
rado law, and a committee appointed to
confer with the employing brick con-
tractors
In little over three weeks the new
agreements establishing the 81 per day
increase were signed and reported back
to the union. No friction of any kind
occurred during the negotiations.
Committees Work Appreciated.
The committee of the union. which so
efficiently handled the matter. consisted
OF Benjamin Ferguson, chairman; VIII
lam Biltz and Frank Black They were
extended a rising vote of appreciation.
The new scale will effect about 800
members. Outlook for work in the trade
TINS coming spring is very promising.
Delegates William Ryan and Robert
Owens, who attended the recent inter
national convention of the Brieklayers
and AIasons' Union. held in Toronto.
anada. have submitted reports of the
important matters transacted. As stated
IN last weeks issue of The Bulletin it
was voted to affiliate with the Ameri-
can Federation OF Labor, and the execu-
tive board authorized to work out the
details of this new policy.
A F. OF L. Affiliation Pleasing.
For many years the Brieklayers and
Masons have had this question up at
conventions, but no definite favorable
action was ever taken until the meet
ing in Toronto. This step meets with
thoro approval of all members of the
Denver local.
An invitation was extended the Tile
Layers and Helpers to affiliate as

International Union. The National I'm

state roads, thereby creating bur-
den Of debt which to carry is stagger-
ing to that wealthy state. The state
highway commission, together with
the state canal commission, both non
partisan, built up such powerful
machine of grafters and thieves, In
connection with the work, that they
controlled everything and deiied every
body. They stole millions OF dollars
of the peoples money. And so great
was their power that when Governor
Sulzer, who was as honest a governor
as New York ever had, got the evil
dence that would have sent the whole
bunch to Sing Sing, they trumped up
immaterial charges against him and
he was promptly impeached, for no
other reason than that he would have
prosecuted them for their enormous
graft which was afterward exposed.

ISHlNAEL PEOPLE
ARE NOT WARLIkE
But Peaceful They Say and
Only Collecting Dues for
Travel.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 2j.-The war
in Mesopotamian lands has meant new
interest TO the many peoples and
tribes living in the great area imme-
diately east Of Suez. Even the Bedo-
uins have come to figure in one way
or another in the news Of the hour.
The National Geographic Society, Of
Washington, gives an interesting pic
ture of their viewpoint upon the
question of whether they are brigands
and robbers or only a people enforc-
ing laws which they have a right to
make and execute. 1t says:
although the Bedouins claim them
selves to be the descendants of lsh-
mael. whom the angel of the Lord de-
clared would be a wild man; his
hand will be against every man, and
every mans hand will be against
him. they declare themselves to be q
peaceful people engaged only in col
lectlng their legitimate dues from
those who travel through their lands.
while the hundreds OF caravans
which have been held up and deprived
of their possessions will probably dis
sent from their view, that view is CIV
en- here for what it is worth.
"The Bedouin contends that the des-
ert is his land as much as America
belongs to the Americans or England
to the English. He reasons that he
has as much right to levy toll on
all who travel his way as western
government has to levy tariff or to
collect an excise tax.
"He contends that every caravan
entering Bedouin territory can, by the
payment OF proper fee, secure from
the nearest Bedouin shiek passport
which entities it to safe passage
through their territory. Falling to Sc
cure such passport and 10 pay such
a toll for the privilege Of passing
through the desert, the Bedouin as
serts that the traveller puts himself

Opposes Bond Issues for Good Roads

Surely there is "a niger in the wood
pile." The boosters have enlightened
us with some ancient history Of Simp-
son district, and some extravagant
praises of the importance Of Bridge
port as an Industrial center, and es-
pecially its beauty and attractiveness
as a place Of homes-an asylum OF
refuge and haven of rest for the re-
tired; this is reminder OF the motto
OF the proverbial hen: "Scratch wher-
ever you can find any scratching to do,
but roost at Bingville." The writer
had the pleasure Of making a brief
excursion to Bridgeport one day last
fall; it was one of those rare days in
October when all nature seemed at
rest, and the garb was very becoming

To see ourselves as others see u.s."
To be serious about bond issues

1t is an easy matter to recklessly

ton to struggle out. Extravaganza

and wealth unless controlled by wis
dom and prudence will bring ruin
and decay. Economy and self denial
is the sheet anchor Of our hopes, and
our succor in time Of need.
The theory that taxation creates
wealth is an Infamous heresy and
falsehood; the policy Of taxing the
many for the benefit of the few Is dis
honest and mean: the principle of tax
ing the public for private benefit and
improvements Is robbery.

to submit to being taxed for a bond
issue for the small sum Of s200,OO0.OO

construct boulevard between Bridge
