A . spectsl tax was levied in 1868 of Arty 'cents per member to defend the conspiracy easel/ of two unions, and thus far but nineteen un ions have paid the ta x. The President suggests that ' , the"' present' system, granting authority. to unions to strike, oo repealed, and the adoption of • plan not so much cumbered with red tape. He declares himself opposed to the whole system' of 'strikes, bat so long se the practice is allowed, he' de sires the adoption of measures that will protect .the employer and employs auks : Thehresent agent is wholesale protection to the employer and retail protection to the employe. A new card system is - deemed advisable, and the doing away with the travelling card and substituting uniform contribu tion card, that no member can go from one onion to another and work without paying dues. He pronounoss the eight hour tear • farce, as It is never enforced. He suggests • fund for the relief of strikers. The President says celored briklayers are beginning to understand the benefits and special privileges gained by unity of action and are taking Walls to unite themselves Into societies. He reanumenrie that the question of their admission be fairly met and decoded on by this Convention. The Convention then went into Com mittee of the Whole and discussed the Conspiracy tax - question.
