AL UNIONS
IN 1 DISPUTE
WOODWORKERS' AND CARPEN
TERS' RELATIONS STRAINED.
I
$be Differences Will Be Considered at
the Next Convention of the Carpen
|fo ters and Joiners at Indianapolis
John Wahlquist Will Go as Delegate
'f*' from Minneapolis.
I John Walilquist, local representative
cp the international executive board of
t&o Carpenters and Joiners' Union of
America, and William Deyl of Edmon
1 ton, !N. W. T., will leave ^Minneapolis
I next Friday *or Saturday for Indian-.
$polis, Iud., to attend the third quar-1
ttorly meeting of the board.
Perhaps the most important matter
to come up will be the differences be
tween the Amalgamated WooclwbrliLers'
nnion and the Carpenters and Joiners,
which have arisen out of the decision
of tho Downey joint committee. The
brotherhood
hase refused'toL.accept
findings,
ani
the
th A. F. of has made
several attempts to force the decision
on the organization without success. It
is expected that when tho board assem
bles a week from Monday this will be
the first matter to come up.
The dispute is of long standing. Some
time ago a joint committee from the
rival unions was appointed and selected
an arbitrator to handle the question and
hand down a decision. Mr. Down ey
was chosen, but it was afterward dia
covered that ho had been a member of
a former joint committee which had
passed upon the matter. However, an
toward was handed down, and the car
I penters, having previously notified,
the. 1 committee to that effect, refused to ac
cept it. Now the A. F. of L. will serve
notico that the decision must be ac
cepted and its provisions enforced.
Local men say that this will never be

consented to. The effect of the award
is that all workmen engaged in inside
or factory work shall be controlled bv
the woodworkers, while all others shall
belong to the carpenters. The wood
workers are continually, complaining of
encroachment by the carpenters, and are
doing all they can to secure the en
forcement of the terms of the recent
award."
"While there is a. feeling locally that
it will never become operative, if the
Amorican Federation should decide to
make it law the brotherhood would
withdraw from the federation.
WILLIAM D. HTJBER'S VISIT
Not Believed that He Will Accomplish
His Purpose.
.President William D. Huber of the
Carpenters and Joiners of America at
tended the meeting of the Carpenters'
District council Wednesday, evening and
spoke in favor of forming a branch of
the Structural Building Trades alliance.
Mr. Huber was one of the prime movers
in the organization of the alliance, and
has great faith in its future. How
ever, local leaders say that the pros
pects for getting a local under way are
no larigfhter today than at any time
previously. The Building Trades coun
cil seems to have taken a brace, and
to fill the bill for the present.
The question was generally discussed
Wednesday evening, and much informa
tion "was gained by those present con
cerning the benefits to be derived from
affiliation with such a body.
Mr. Huber was entertained by a com
mittee of the local union today and was
taken for a drive about the city. He
will leave for Indianapolis, tomorrow
evening.
TYPOS PLAN A BIG PICNIC
Outing at Young America Aug. 6 Will
Be of Surpassing Interest.
President F. N. Gould and Financial
Secretary N. G. O 'Co'n'nor o Typo
graphical union, No. 42, will go to
Young Am'erica Sunday to complete
arrangements for the picnic of the
union to be.held there Sunday, Aug. 6.
They will report tothe general picnic
committee at the headquarters in the
Globe building Monday evening, at
which time all the details for the event
will be completed.
There will be a ball game between
the newspaper men and the job print-
era and a program of miscellaneous
sports, for which prizes will be offered,
and music and dancing. A special train
has been arranged for over the Minne
apolis & St. Louis road, and it is ex
pected a large crofcvd will attend.
At Sunday's meeting $119 was ap
propriated to each of the delegates
who, will attend the international con
vention in August at Toronto. J. P.
Kennedy, Sr., and George :MulvihiU are
the .delegates: C-E. Pingree will rep
resent the union in the.Wited*Union
Label council and F. Kubias in the Al
lied Printing Trades council. Eight
candidates were received into member
ship. There will be a special meeting
on Friday evening,, July 21, at Colum
bus hall.
Eeports from the eight^hour commit
tee were to-the effect that Minneapolis
alM St. Paul unions are working har
moniously together in the eight-hour
campaign work, and that good results
were in evidence.
A. E. IRELAND'S NEW PLACE
He is Now Business Agent of Twin
City Machinists' Union.
A. E. Ireland has been elected busi
ness agent of the twin city machinists'
unions. The result of the vote of the
Minneapolis unions left Thomas Van
Lear of Local No. 91 slightly in the
lead. The St. Paul unions, wliich voted
this week, went overwhelmingly for
Mr. .Ireland, one being reported as giv
ing him an almost unanimous vote".
Yan Lear has been a candidate for
the position a number of times but the
fact that ho is closely allied with the
socialists has been assigned as the cause
of his defeat. For a number of months
past he has been "on the road" in
the interest of the socialist party, and
is said to be devoting all his time to
this work. Socialism is held respon
sible to a large extent by some for
the great decrease in membership of
one of the locals, which is said to .have
fallen from a membership of more than
300 to scarcely 100.
3VCr. Ireland was sent here a ew
weeks ago by the officers of the inter
national with a view to strengthening
the twin city unions, and his election
to the office of business agent, half
the salary of which is paid by the in
ternational, will give him every oppor
tunity to accomplish desired results.
He is a man of wide experience and
has been intrusted with the conduct
of several large strikes, having come
here from strike headquarters on the

LOOKING O-'O MINNEAPOLIS
General Labor Organizations Well
Represented Here.
Minneapolis has been receiving much
attention at the hands of national
and international unions of late. This
is accounted for in part because this
city has representatives on a number
of general executive boards, which has
served to call attention to this part of
the country. The most notable of
those of prominence in the labor move
ment who have been with us this sum
mer was Samuel Gompers. Since then
James J. Lynch, president of the In
ternational Typographical union
George Murray, general organizer for
the Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners A. E. Ireland, special organ
izer for the machinists, and William D.
Huber, the latter two of whom are
still here, have come to Minneapolis
and looked oyer their respective fields.
Besides this unusual activity in in
ternational circles, local representatives
are being sent out by state and local
unions to do organization work over
the northwest. A. G. Bainbridge has
just returned from a. two weeks' trip

ing Trades Alliance, his last meeting
