 Today the Gazette management de- clared it's composing room mechanical departments an open shop.
 The management always has felt that it is unfair to 6eny work to men who are efficient merely because they do not belong to the Typographical Union. This idea was born and bred into us from the teachings of the Constitution of the United States. As true Americans we believe in just.cC and equality to all.
 You, by your acts, drove us to adopt the "open shop" The legal contract, made between us % recently, seems to mean nothing to your organization. Many of your members, while drawing honest, fair days wage, have de- liberately and consistently produced as little as possible.

Your president demanded that we employ men who walked out' of the Arizona Republicans composing room last Saturday. We were astonished at this, for had we done so we would have become a party to the breaking of the contracts with both the Repub- lican and the Gazette. Consequently We refused, whereupon he said he was sorry, as this step might mean a walkout' from our composing room. He was informed that such a course was the business of his union. When committee from your union pre- Sented to this paper a written demand for wage increase of s1 per day for each man in the composing room, you deliberately violated your contract made witn us in October, and effective for one Lar
 In view of this proof of your insin- cerity and lack of good faith we are unwilling to deal further with your organization. and will not do so, either now or in the future.
 Further proof of your utter disre- gard Of your contract with us is that after your wage increase demands were refused, five of your members deliberately left our composing room without word of warning.

ADAMS WINS FROM
 ST. MARY'S ] ID 1

Adams school decisively defeated St. Mary's , to 1 yesterday afternoon in a game in the city grammar league, thereby maintaining its 100 per cent. record for the series. The game was fast all the way through, and was re- garded as one of the best in the league so far.
 The game was to have been played Wednesday afternoon, but was post poned one day on account of rain. The Polk street grounds were used.
 Both the Adams and St. Mary'S boys played a good brand of ball, as both are rounding out in fine form. Adams scored a lead of two runs in the first inning, and clinChed the game with two more in the fifth, after St. Mary'S brought in one in the fourth. Adams made its fifth run in the last inning Adams still leads the league with an unblemished rocerd of five games won and none lost. The score by innings:
