Harvest Hands Scarce in California
[From the San Fran cisco ButletIn.l

tHfoni uic San anclsco Butletin1
There is tie usual scarcity of labor
ers with the beginning of the harvest
season. The demand will be greater
this year than usual, because there is a
prospect of large aggregate grain and
hay crops. Were it not for the great
amount of machinery used in this state.
it would be impossible to harvest the
grain crops before the late autumnal
rains set in. The first wheat has already
como to market, but threshiug has not
yet fairly begun. The harvest season
covers about three aud a half months in
California. beginning about the mid
die OF june, t is not well over until the
last OF September. Every able-bodied
man n who is willing to go into the harvest
field can find work for the next two
months at comparatively large wages.
FROM all quarters of the state come re-
ports OF the scarcity of harvest hands.
If there are any oilers in this city who
really want work, this is their time. The
demand for labor is not only greater in
this direction than the source of the
supply, but there is also a scarcity of
carpenters, especially for house building
ana other rough work. All kinds Of
labor in this state are in brisk demand
and this demand is pretty satisfactory
evidence of prosperity.

The time has come for President Ar
thur to give, if he has not already given,
notice of the termination of the fishery
articles of the treaty of Washington.
These articles took effect July 1, 1873,
and it is stipulated by the treaty that
either party may end the agreement by
giving two years notice at any time after
the expiration of ten years from that
date. At the last session of congress a
joint resolution was passed directing The
President togive such notice July 1st.
But this action on the part of congress
was hardly necessary to move the Presi-
dent to take prompt steps to end one
sided agreement by which Canadian
fishermen have been secured in valuable
privileges to which they are not entitled
and the United States has been swindled
out of its just rights.
