we feel. If this agitation continues,
taat labor will be out of employment,
for the reason that the employer is
now paying as much for labor as Il is
possible Tor him TO pay and live. We
are obliged 10 look long into the fu-
ture because Of that agitation, since
we import our goods from all over the
world and make large contracts in

doing. This prosperity we are now
