selection of Mr.. Sauer to this i'm
portant position was a most happy
and fortunate one on the part of the
clerks as he is fighter and is always
ready to stand forth for the cause.
He is conner and is sure to be heard
from.
The resignation of Secretary "Bob"
Fallert was accepted by the members
with much regret. For % years he
served in this position and for %
years he was always on the job, many
times to his own detriment. While
all regretted to see Bob" quit as sec
retary, they were glad to know that
he will retain his membership in the
organization and buzz around at the
meetings in the future. AS token
of their appreciation of his long serv-
ice the clerks presented Bob" with
check for $100. In neat speech
of acceptance Bob" pledged himself
at all times in the future to do any
thing and everything possible for the
welfare and progress of the union.
The clerks voted to place an ad
in the Labor Day issue of the Butler
/ County Press.
H. C. Hollender, of the Toledo 10.
cal, but who is now with Harry
Strauss Furniture Company, was 6
visitor. Mr.. Hollender will transfer
his membership to the local union.
The matter of electing vice pres
ident to succeed Elmer Sauer, elect
ed secretary, was left to take place a
the next meeting.

unbearable work conditions.
The strikers say they are forced
back into the tunnel before the gas
from dynamite explosions has cleared
This produces a cracking headache
called powder" and is one of the
most acute forms of headache known.
The workers also object to the food
served them in the camps.
Efforts have been made to organize
these workers, but Charles Leckenby,
member of the Moffat tunnel COM
mission, assured trade unionists that
conditions are so ideal organization is
not necessary. In fact, declared Mr..
Leckenby, if union was formed there

Jackson remarked: Mr.. Vice Chairman.
I want to make the story a little longer.
TIE precedent is a dangerous one. A
butcher who hadn't the $500 killed a
goat in his back yard and sold it and he
was fined $1,000. He has his license and
cannot work. The .OrdinaDce under
which they are working dates back to
1879. The tax of $500 per year on the
butcher is unlawful, that is to say, it has
never been passed by the Council.
The Vice Chairman: remarked If all
the stories are over | will stake the vote
for a committee Of 5 members to receive
and report on this matter, bat before
doing so | will give a recess.
A recess of 20 minutes was given.

the old building where he had leased

He attached no particular significance

Suddenly there was vivid flash of
