men try to hold a second convention
in the hall, the Taft men say, the
Roosevelt delegates would be relieved
of the Instructions and could vote
for Taft on the first ballot.
Colonel Roosevelt himself was the
center of great activity today.
Many delegates were escorted to
his parlors prior to the public recep
tion nnd had a word privately with
him. So great was the jam In and

There ,was a large attendance at
the street meeting Saturday night,
called for the purpose of protesting
against the employment of alien and
contract labor on public work paid
for by the property owners and tax
payers of the city.
Charles M. , Anderson presided and
stated that the ordinance that had
been drawn up was considered by the
Trades and Labor Council Friday
night, and had been endorsed by
them. They had struck out the word
''unsklled," bo that the ordinance
applied to. all kinds of labor, skilled
and unskilled, organized or unorgan
ized. Text of the Ordinance
"A bill for an ordinance requiring
all contracts between the city of Sa
lem, and persons, firms or corpora
tions for public Improvements to con
tain a clause providing that all labor
employed upon such public Improve
ment shall be bona fide residents of
the city of Salem.
"Be It ordained by the common
council of the city of Salem, Oregon.
"Section 1. All contracts for pub
lic work hereinafter entered Into be
tween the city of Salem and any
person, firm or corporation shall con
tain the following clause: 'And the
contractor hereby agrees that only
bona fide residents of the city of Sa
lem will be employed to perform the
labor to be done under this contract,
when such bona fide residents make
application to work upon the publlo
work being done under this contract.'
Bond of $500 Required.
Sec. 2. All persons, firms or cor
porations entering Into a contract for
any public work with the city of Sa
lem shall execute a bond to be ap
proved by the mayor in the sum of
$500, conditioned upon the faithful
performance of the foregoing clause,
which bond, In case of a breach of the
contract, shall be forfeited to the city
of Salem, and the city of Salem shall
proceed to collect the amount men
tioned in said bond in the manner
provided by law."
Goes to City Council.
Letters were read from City Attor
ney Page and Mayor Lachmund, en
dorsing the efforts made to secure a
larger employment of home laborers.
Mayor Lachnymd wrote that he had
ordered the city attorney to embody
the home lubor clause of the city
charter In all future contracts for
public work, and that the new sewer
contracts being closed up this week
contained those clauses. In spite of
these efforts the labor leaders will
press the passage of the ordinance
with the $500 penalty clause.
There are a number of public con
tracts being carried on In Salem at
present with contract and alien la
bor, nearly all of whom are non-residents.
The matter is going to be
