The Baltimore Hsrod has the fol-

of Baltimore and this State: "In the
last century the Chesapeake, as the
most extensive and valuable oyster pro-
ducing grounds in the world. yielded
over 400, 1000, 900 bushels. from which
was realized the sum of $3.50, 900, 900. 1t
yields twice as many oysters as are pro-
duced by all foreign countries combined;
it furnishes support for over 230. 900
men and women of Maryland and
Virginia, not counting those resident i'll
Baltimore. This city is the greatest
oyster market in the world: it employs
mure capital in the industry than is
used by all other fisheries, and it pays
wages to as many more persons as are
engaged in the actual work of preparing
the oyster for the market. This great
industry must be protected and increas-
ed.

As a Red Man his experience only goes

upbuilding of the order he has risen
