Editors and Propristo Of the Nuscasas Courier and
GENTLEMEN: We, the printers employed
in your offices, respectfully call your attention
to the fact that the expenses of living have
become 80 much increased as to render it al
most impossible for US to live at the rates Of
wages which have heretofore been deemed
fair and just in this city. We have hssitated
and forborne to make any request Of you for
An increase up to this time; but the pressure
has at last reached that extent that we are
compelled to do so. We therefore ask that
you will pay an advance Of five cents per
thousand ems Of composition. This has been
done in Davsnport-in other places it is
already greater.
We hope you will appreciate tho spirit in
which this request il made. and from your
own experience of the cost Of living acknow-
ledge its justice. Respectfully,
