the same purpos.e we can bring home the cherry. We havt; several candidates for delegate. May tht: best man win. .Most of our boys 'are working now, with prospects for a few mo'nths steady work. I wish to hear from Dan'l Boone whenever he can write. ~With best wishes.to the 1. B. E. w.., I am . .Fraternally yours, . MARK, Press Secretary. THE ELECTRICAL WORK:E1
THB ELECTRICAL WORKER the Bell in Massilon and also in Youngstown at present, and I am of the opinion that this will be the next place. There are a good many men working here now for the other companies, and I am very glad to say they·all have the label. ' "Work is not very plentiful just at present, but we.manige to keep all busyth:it are here. Our meetings have not been very well attended of late, but we hope in the near future to get the boys together once again. We are going to try and make our Labor Day one not to be forgotten. We have had our election of officers. I am very glad to state that we have got our local on its feet once more. Yours fraternally, W. B. THAYER, Press Secretary. Local Union No. 215 •. Ho't SPRINGS, ARK., July 23, 1903. Editor Electrical Worker·: As it has been quite a while since any large amount of information has been disseqlinated from this famous town in the "Valley of Vapors, " we will try to do better in this and future communications. This ,town is probably as unfavorably situated' as any in the Brotherhood for the maintenance of a good local, on account of its being a health resort, which brings many of the brothers this way. Some of them are broke, others near! y so and all anxious to pick up whatever coin they can during their stay here, even though it be only enough to pay their expenses. As a matter of fact, there are not over from five to eight home guards here, but of course there are enough visiting brothers here at any time to have a fairly good meeting. Until about two years ago there was practically no contractor here that the union could get up an agreement with, but since that time one contractor has done nearly all the business and he pays a scale of $2:.50 for eight hours inside work. There are now about ten or a dozen good card men in here from the four quarters of the United States, and. two or three of them have found a few days' work. i}. new telephone company is now gett~t;1g ready to put in an exchange here, and there are enough of us here to handle all the work they will have for a while. We .expect to be able to get a scale signed with them which will imprqve conditions here quite a bit, . . .. Brother N. R. Clark, who carries a card from Texarkana, will superintend the work of construction. We all hope that by the time the main part of the work is done the visiting brothers will have instilled new life into the local here and put them on their feet, so that after they are g~ne the status of the union electrical workers will be greatly improved in Hot Springs. There are four or five men who have been in this local previous to this, who have managed its affairs so as put a silver lining in their own pockets, which rightfully belongs to Local No. 215. This will be notice to them, wherever they may be, that they must immediately square up their accounts with the financial secretary of the local or stand the consequences. After this notification we will send in their names and the amount they owe 'to headquarters, with request that they be barred from any local in the Brotherhood until they do square up. Hereafter we will have bonded treasurers and financial secr·etaries, which is the proper way in any organization, but which fact never impresses itself except after sad experiences like the above. A. MANDERS, Recording and Press Secretary. Local Union No. 217. SEA't'tLE, WASH., July 25, 1903. Editor Electrical Worker: Having been elected press secretary for the ensuing term, I will endeavor to give you the news just as I see it You have not heard from 217 veryoften. I don't know why. We elect a press secretary every term. But we don't happen to hear from them. It would be much better for the Brotherhood if we knew conditions as the· existed in the different cities. Don't simply write when you have trouble or a strike on, but every month, and all the months of the year .. We have started off with a new set ofofficers for this term. A good set of offic~rs is the life of a local,
