Scandal Threatens

Woolen Mill Strike Shortly after 8
o'clock Friday morning some 43 weav
ers at the Oregon City Woolen Mills
left their looms and demanded the re
moval of their foreman, Arthur Haigh,
who, they said, was obnoxious to them.
Saturday they were joined by the
hands of the carding department and
also by the finishing room, in fact
every department was vacated except
the spinning room. The spinners went
out Monday. The five or six weavers
who remained at their looms when the
others quit, afterwards signed the
agreement not to work, and every part
of the mill was idle. There were about
230 employes on the strike.
It appeared that there had .been
growing dislike to the foreman for
some time. The weavers said he was
prone to credit them on the books from
which the pay roll is made up with
less work than is shown on the tags
he attaches to the goods turned out
from the looms. Whenever this was
detected it was corrected, but the
weavers who are paid by the yard,
think that such errors are made too
often. They also allege that the fore
man often used ungentlemanly and
sometimes insulting language to the
female hands. The fact that .he was
recently made co-defendant in an
adultery case considerably increased
the dislike among the weavers, and it
did not require much to move them to j
action.
An arbitration board was appointed !
ana found that Haigh was guilty of
these charges and suggesteg he resign
the position as foreman to take effect
sixty days so asto enable tne company
to secure a man in his place. On Tues
day morning the whistles blew at the
usual hour and work was resumed in
all departments. The strikers includ
ed some of the best citizens of this
city. All were well behaved an d seem
ed disposed to be fair, and it is probab
ly due to this spirit that a conclusion
so favorable to the strikers was reach
ed. The arbitration board consisted of
Fred Metzner, Charles Rose, John
Thomas, James Wilkinson, Arthur
Diedy. This committee chose WW.
Myers, G. H. Miller and John Shade
to represent them. On the part of the
factory T.W. Sullivan, H. C. Stevens
and J H- Burghardt were selected. The
committee met in the Fountain Hose
Company's headquarters, where a num
ber of witnesses Were Drougnr. in. t.
W. Sullivan was chairman of the meet
ing and W. W. Myers secretary.
