only In the forenoon that General Logan'a

talk. remember" said Mr., Blaine, "tha,

that 1t was very fortunate when 80 many
Generals had fallen far below expectation

United States Commissioner of the Bureau
of Labor, has completed his Investigations
into the boot and shoe trade in this city

the Boot and Shoe Makers White Labor

large number of Chinese hands have been
discharged by white manufacturers. and
the business OF Chinese manufacturers has
decreased and is decreasing very rapidly.
All this has been derived from the issuance
and use of a stamp, but l would suggest
the propriety Of the league, in conjunction
with manufacturers and dealers, of having
enacted at the next meeting of the Legis-
lature q proper stamp law, compelling the
use OF the stamp by all manufacturers.

the community. Among other things 1t
was stated ut the meetings that q settler
