I -Sooner to Consider
v Wolkont. ....
A; strike on the new county court house
Is Imminent. The committee" representing
the labor unions of the crafts furnished
employment on the building was turned
down cold by Contractor Caldwell Tuesday
evening when they asked that the Job be
unionised.
The contractor refused to make any
statements when - the committee wanea
upon him in the office of th county com
missioners Monday noon, but at that' time
at representative of . the stone cutters'
union stated that the etone cutters would
baok up th Iron workers now on strike,
and would go out on a sympathetic strike
If necessary.
Mr. Caldwell's Answer.
Following is the answer made by Mr,
Caldwell to Tony Donahue, chairman of
the committee from the 'Iron workers' and
engineers' unions: " -
In compliance with resolution adopted
by coupty ernmtsstphers July 9, requesting
tnat ueorgu w. caidweil or our firm meet
your committee at the commissioners',. Af
rica . in rererence to unionising engineers
and iron worker on Douglmi county court
house work, ' we have this answer and
proposition to cnak to you: -.'i ' ;
' First You called a strike- Vstti this Jop
white negotiations for unionising said
workers were. pending and before condition
of our agreement were completed, showing
you had no consideration for our Interests
as contraotors and employers, which ac
tion concluded said negotiations; ,i
"Second If you will hav the county com
missioner pas a resolution and agree
ment to pay us th difference between th
union scale of wages at th time w took
the. contraot for Douglas county court
house, nd th present union scale of
wages, which difference represents to ua
an additional cost of from $26,000 to 3Q, 400
tor iaoor on tne court house, w-e are ready
and willing to recognise and accede i to' Tur
present terms and demand on, this 'oon
tract." .-.
Board Oat of It. :'''. ''.V '
Th "proposition" made In th fast par.
agraph is considered a Joke. Under exist
lng conditions It would be Impossible for
th Board of County Commissioners to
take such action and if they ; wer' able,
not one says he would vote for tt Th
matter rests between th contractors and
th unionists. t ,
Chairman Donahue says the unions will
never back down now that they have de
live red their ultimatum to th contractors
and hav received a final statement In re
turn. If conditions remain as they are a
atrlk will doubtless be called. Although
the stone cutters do not hold their reg
ular meeting until Friday night, a special
meeting may be called to take the matter
up.

However. I am willing to venture what
Is efcuentlal to a proper course of cam
paigning. If you will resign the Judgeship and Mr.
Saunders will resign as ceiiuus supervisor,
1 will help to make up the Ilnanoial sacri
fice tins Involve to each of you, to the
extent of meeting you both in joint debate
at my own expense in any hails or hails
you may select ki any county in this con
gressional uiatrict.
1 think It is omy fair that you both drop
the public udder before we begin the de
bates, so that we Bbull all be on common
ground In this particular.
It neither of you uarea to discuss national
topics, 1 suggest that 1 will take the af
firmative ot th following bunting ques
tion: "Why should a man holding a Judicial
position or a civil service position resign
the Job. before he ask th people to give
him another T"
This topic will enable you to double team
on me and have the help of Mr, Saunders
in the proposed Joint debate.
Meantime 1 want It understood that I am
a republican without prefix or affix and
think you ought to define your position on
county option. Initiative and referendum,
pronlbltlon, commission plan of govern
ment and annexation of South Omaha,
though you hesitate to announce yourself
on vital national questions.
I trust that this third letter will bring a
S.ivrteous response or at least an
acknowledgement of Its receipt.
