THE BOYCOTT IS SUSPENDED

Building Will Now Be Resumed Workmen
Are Phased.
The Building Trades Council met last
night and decided to remove the boycott
which had been placed sometime ago
against the produot of the planing mills.
There are several reasons why this ac
tion was taken. A considerable work was
tied up all over the city, and it was
deemed advisable to relieve the strain by
declaring the material fair. Then some
thing bad to be done to preserve harmony
among the different unions. Many of ths
carpenters were dissatisfied with the ex
isting conditions, believing that they
should not have been thrown out of em
ployment by taking up someone else's
fight,.
Other unions began to murmur their
discontent, and taken as a whole tbe
boycott was riot popular with them. The
followic notice was drawn up and or
dered published:
"To Orgaelted Labor: The . boycott
against the unfair planing mills was de

Indian outbreak at PocateUo ia not of a
