baltimore Day.

baltimore Day.l
Baltimore aspires to beco me great man
ufacturing city, and there is much in its sit
uation and surroundings to make the aspira-
tion reasonable and natural one; but for
tunate situation alone viii not secure manu-
featuring activity. Readiness to work and
respect for labor are the mainsprings of sue.
cess in industrial development, and these,
we fear, are to some extent lacking in Balti-
more. The writer knows city where the
sons of manufacturers and of well.to-do
and even wealthy men go into the shops as
apprentices, donning the apron and overalls
and carrying the tin kettle from which they
eat their mid day meal in hearty good
fellowship with the other workmen around
them. Such youths, as they grow old
enough, doff the blouse and don the dress
suit of evenings, and the lily-handed
clerk or young lawyer or doctor
would be laughed out of society If he
presumed to think of turning up his nose at
one of those youths, who will next day be
standing, hammer in hand, over his bench
Now would this be possible in Baltimore
We fear not, and yet the spirit which makes
IL possible is fatal to the highest develop
ment of industrial activity, and probably is
responsible for the popular indifference to
the effort now making here to put labor iu a
position before the law that would drive self
respecting workmen from our city.

that he would take the one chance
He died shortly after the operation. He
