The music interspersed with the

appreciated.

The Bangor reunion was certainly
one of the most interesting and success
full ever held i'm this county. Comrade
Harvey was untiring in his efforts to
make all comfortable and in looking al
ter the countless details which the
commanding officer on such an occasion
always encounters, he showed wonder

During the past five years 1884 strikes
have been reported in this country
in 5,223 different establishments. OF
these. about two-thirds were successful
because in nearly all cases the cause
was either a question of wages or hours
of labor. So far it would seem that
strikes have been in favor of striking
employees, but the result in most cases
has been a frightful loss to employers
and great want, deprivation and suffer
ing among the working people. There
surely ought to be some agreeable way
of settling labor disturbances.
The latest application for the band

Compiling the city Ordinances.

The report of the Committee on Ac-
counts. transmitting the bids for com
piling the City Ordinances. came up in
the First Branch. and the bid of White
K Allen. at 5000. was accepted. The
action was transmitted to the Second
Branch. where the point was raised that
the action of the First Branch was not
legal. because no measure could rise in
that Branch appropriating money.
The matter was recOmmittcd to the
committee. and the committee was
asked 10 retire at once.
