division have been enlarged, inasmuch
as Chief Powderly is endeayoring to
provide work for Americans as well

From July last until early in Dc

Chief Powderly to supply various
forms OF labor for factory, railroad,

descriptions. About the middle of
October, when the financial disturb

applications were cancelled. CORE

ing labor they were putting off men,
and that everything pointed to a pro

Recently there has been a renewal
Of the demand for labor. Chief Pow
derby says that this demand comes
from every section Of the country ;
that 1t calls for mechanics, mill oper-
atives. factory hands. railroad buillers,
and farm laborers. From the agrlcul-
tural States have come notice that in
the spring hundreds of thousands OF
farm hands will be needed, and that
every effort should be made by the gov

an adequate supply of labor is provided
in the regions where it will be urgently
required.
