UNIONS FIGHTING THEIR
OWN DOCTRINES -.. IA.

Once more the question comes up
regarding the propriety Of allowing
emvicts in the penitentiary to en-
gage in .hard labor" II the product
nf their toll come into competition
with the products Of freemen work
ing at their vacations. ~ 4, eat5
The Idaho penitentiary is making
shoes and sending them to- state In
situations for, use of the people whom
The state has to support, and buy
shoes, for. The institution receiving
the shoes pays for them and the
money goes to the credit of the in
stitution that made them. 1t makes
"a saving to the taxpayers but cuts
down by that amount, the demand
for shoes made by factories operated
by freemen working for wages or by
the piece. There are always some
people who advocate and some who
object to the practice.
When the bids were made on the
capitol building at Boise and on the
school for the feeble minded at
Nampa, the state agreed to furnish
the rock already to load at the
quarry and planned to quarry 1t
with prison labor, but union labor
kept track of the situation and re-
fused to work on building in which
any material was being used that
r'"s prepared or Quarried by con-
vict labor. They would have made
the same objection if the rock had
tc-,,,, quarried by well paid freemen
who were not members of the union.
The state insisted upon it's right to
60 ahead with its contract to furnish
the rock quarried and ready to load,
and union labor went on strike and
tied up construction on the govern
ment's buildings. The result was
that union triumphed over the gov
eminent made for the purpose of
controlling all citizens and all COM
bilations Of citizens, and it had to
send the prisoners back to the cells
and keep them in enforced idleness
and pay union labor for quarrying
other rock. gAs ha

be imprisoned at hard labor, but
when the prisoner wants to labor,
making shoes or cutting square
stones from, a ledge, union labor
dictates to the government and
sends the. prisoner back to idleness.
Kate Richards O'Hare in her ad-
dress at Pocatello short time ago
abused capitalists and condemned
the present prison system in the
severest terms. She said every pris-
oner should have the opportunity to
work and the product of such toll
should be used to maintain the pris-
oner and the residue given to the
prisoner or saved for him to start
out in life when his sentence was
finished. She condemned existing
conditions and advocated what the
unions refuse to allow and yet Kate
0'Hare and the rest of the Socialists
are using the unions to tie up and
obstruct whatever does not work to
their interest.
1t seems to be the ambition of the
unions to get into a position to
dictate to the government, and right
well have they done it during the
war and the railroad strikes and
proposed strikes which they held as
clubs to force the government in
railroad wages and hours of labor.

Blackfoot, Idaho, July IL, 1871.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council of the City of Blackfoot,
Idaho.
We, the undersigned citizens and
taxpayers of the City Of Blackfoot,
Idaho, respectfully wish to enter our
protest against the paving at this
time of that part Of the paving dis
trict mentioned in Ordinance No.
257,, to wit Lots to 20 inclusive

Additions; lots 1 to 5 and 16 to 20
both inclusive in block 40, Daniel
son addition; lots to Is both in
elusive in block 1O2, Danielson addi-
ton for the following among other
reasons, that the taxes and burdens
incurred by the taxpayers of Black
foot are now so extremely high and
are practically confiscatory of the
property subject to the paving taxes
now already imposed, and will have
the same effect on the property now
sought to be encountered by the pro-
posed tax under the said ordinance
No. 257. Your protestants further
claim that present financial condi-
lions are such that it will be almost a
certainty that many of the owners OF
homes and property affected by the
paving taxes will not be able to pay
the taxes thus imposed and that the
burdens imposed on their homes and
property will result in having their
property sold to the county and city
thus imposing further burdens on
all the taxpayers, all of which will
have tendancy to cast a blight on
the prosperity and development OF
this city:
