Cigarnakers
(By j. W. Sanford.)

Tuesday evenings meeting brought
out large attendance and several
matters of Importance We're taken up,
including the report of our strike COM
mittee. There is practically no
change in the situation as the manu-
facturers with the exception of three
of the smaller ones have not seen fit
to accede to our demand for 50 in
crease for making cigars, which would
only make up part of the increased
cost of living. The manufacturers
the price on cigars if they grant our
demand. Why shouldn't they raise
the price on cigars? The public is
paying more for everything else they
get and while this may not be right
there is no reason why cigars should
be an exception.
The Mount Morris Cigar company,
employing three men; the S. d. Fried
land Cigar company, employing twelve
men, and M. Ginsborg, employing four
men, have signed our new scale and
admit that they are going to add it to
the cost of the cigar.
Proposition of the larger manufac-
turers to average one high bill and
three low ones in as many different
cities in the United States and give
us a dollar more than the average did
not meet the approval of our members.
We want to bring the low ones up,
not get down to their price.
The assistance of the Trades As
sembly committee in our present diff
ficulty should remind our members
that we have lot of very good friends
there that are willing to go the limit
for us.
We admit the fairness of the indus
trial commission but have our doubts
about it's effectiveness. Our commit

tee and the manufacturers met there
on Wednesday and Thursday of last
week and filled the commissioners full
of cigar talk. They admitted after
the hearing that it takes more mate
rial and skill to make cigar than
they ever dreamed of.
Several committees were granted
the floor at our meeting Tuesday even
ing, including Salmond of the United
Laborers, urging our members to vote
for their amendment for increased
pay. Denver Taxpayers association
was also represented and our old
friend, Roy Heron, of the Horseshoers
in the interest of Roady Kenehan for
city auditor. We gave our indorse-
ment to all propositions presented.
The standing room sign is put out
early these days around our card
table, in fact some of the members
bring their lunch and hold their seats
from early morning until closing time.
