Spokane, Wash., Feb. 7. Bachelors
are being dumped in wholesale fashion
from the payroll of the city, following
out the policy of President Roosevelt
to cause all unmarried men to Immedi
ately find helpmates, and pursuant to
the No. 12 brogan kick administered by
local labor organizations which alleged
that the married men had been crowded
out and the single men were In the as
cendency. Mayor Moore has O. K'd. the
going of the bachelors.
In connection with the new policy
at the city hall, five single men who
naa neen employed as drivers in tne cre
matory department quit work yesterday.
in otner denartn-.ents it was estimated
that 20 men had been let out.
J. F. Ltockhart. assistant superintend
ent of the crematory, when asked why
the changes had been made in the cre
matory staff, said yesterday:
The men were let out primarily be
cause thoy were single men. However,
two or tne men, on Investigation, were
found not to be naturalized. All of the
discharged men had worked aa drivers
for me when I was doing a private
scavenger business and all were good
worttera; nut tnero were too many mar
ried men demanding the Jobs. Each of
the discharged men was a driver or a
helper, and received $2.75 a day."
This Bachelor Was Game.
William It. Roy, president of the
board of public works, said yesterday:
"It has been decided to let the single
men go. We are besieged daily by mar
ried men seeking work, who In addition
to having family responsibilities are old
residents and own property. These are
the men who are getting the preference.
"The other day a fine appearing man,
recommended by the Northern Pacific
Railroad company aa a first-class me
chanic, applied for work In the water
works department, and I was about to
hU-e him when 1 learned he was living
in a furnished room. He admitted he
was not married, and I told him we
could not give him employment. He!
nearly cried, but said: 'I am broke; but
If I cannot make a living, it is difficult
to seo how a man with a family can
get along. Give the Job to a married
man, If such man wants It.' "
Commissioner J. T. O'Brien was in
clined to treat the matter leas seriously
than tho other city officials and said:
"While it la true that single men are
being removed, I think that only about
20 have been lot out for that reason
alone."
Mayor Moore said yesterday: "It Is
the policy of tha administration to give
married men the preference in city employment."
