R.| Beckwith--Defends George Dean. Kingston, June 13.--(To the Edi! tor) : While reading your valuable pa per last evening 1 found a letter siga- | ed E. R. Beckwith, in which he de-| nies a statement made George | Dean, in a previous issue; Mr. Dean] made a correct statement. There are five names on our agreemeni who are paying 285¢, per hour, and there are some paying it who have not signed the agreement. There are seven or eight contractors who refuse to pay the increase or sign the agreement. | believe they are ealled the boua fide contractors. It i6 true that a motion was oar | ried by 'the labor union to return at] the old rate of wages, if all the con tractors would sign the agreement, but they failed to. sfiow up, and at the same time some of the 'aborers went to work contrary to rules, and are working at the present time with non-union men. They number about fourteen out of a membership of sev- enty- five. The other 'sixty are work ing at all kinds of labor, and it does not matter to Mr, Beckwith what they are getting. They will get what the: agree to work for, at any rat: Mr. Beckwith adds that Mr. Dean never works for contractors and has no right to a vote in the local un- jon. Now, sir, Mr. Dean was. a build- ing laborer before he became caretak- er of a church and has never been denied a vote in his union, and we consider him as much entitled to. a vote in his union as Mr. Beckwith has to a voice among bona fide con tractors. I might add that the union labor ers of Kingston are back to the ori- ginal motion, and expedt twenty-eight cents per hour for an eight-hour day on buildings. I have a letter from Qttawa stating the laborers wage is Fe. per hour, while ine Toronto they go as high as 34c. per hour, so our demands are not unreasonable.
