Governor Upham's Message.
Madison, Jan. 10. Governor Upham's
message deals with the use of the black
list by large corporations at great length.
The governor says : "I cannot but re
gard the arrangement among a ' large
number of employers not to employ or
permit to be employed, if they can pre
vent it, competent and faithful men,
simply because they quit the eervice of
some other employer, as a conspiracy,
which should not be tolerated by law.
The employer bas no more right to be
protected by law against a conspiracy of
employes than the employes have to be
protected by law against a conspiracy on
the part of the employers."

per recommended that money to the ex

Washington be appropriated to build
homes. In case it is done, all the houses
will probably be built under one contract.
