Master Painters and Electrical Con tractors Demand Concessions and Trades Bodies May Retaliate. SPOKANE. Wash.. Feb. 23. (Spe cial.) That the prospective launching; of an "open shop" campaign by con tractors and builders of Spokane would be a iiignal for the establishment of co-operative workshops by various unions that would operate in competi tion to the present emplos'ers. Is the plan being considered by local labor leaders. This was made known today In labor circles, where some excite ment prevails as the result of a demand made by the master painters upon the Painters' L'nlon for a reduction of wages and "open shop" concessions. The action Is Interpreted by many to be Intended as an opening wedge for a general movement of employers here toward the "open shop." Intensifying the situation to a con siderable degree, the electrical con tractors of the city have served the elertrtcal workers' unions with a 30 day notice of a termination of present agreements. These agreements, which Involve certain concessions by the unions, as compared with former con tracts and wage scales, were entered into about a year ago. Hopes of a peaceable settlement of matters are held out by some members of the Painters' Onion, but prevailing: sentiment in this organization appears unalterably opposed to a compliance with the demands of the master painters. Prominent members of the Plumbers' Union declared that their organization Is prepared to bring S40.000 to Spo kane to back a co-operative plumbing shop In case that the struggle between "open shop" advocates and organized labor should become general.

The tariff prorramme In the Senate will be framed at conferences which the Dem ocrats, the "proRresslve" Republicans and the regular Republicans are plan ning to hold soon after the finance committee concludes Its hearings on the House steel revision bill.

He did not say what he Intend ed doing with Senator Bourne when they met. "The statement to which Dr. Mott takes exception "was contained in one of Bourne's 'canned Interviews,' In which he condemned the President for withdrawing the nominations of va rious North Carolina officials and charged that this move was made to secure delegates to the National con vention. He said among other things: " 'This rumored flagrant misuse of patronage must necessarily receive great credence throughout the country, espe cially In the minds of those remembering the famous Norton letter. The purchase of votes for money debauches but two individuals the purchaser and the pur- chasee.
