stand for all three OF the taxation meas
ures together which meant real reform.
Mr. Tilden OF Northiield inquired what
provision was made for the payment by

GRANITE PLANT SOLD
BY HOYT & LEBOURVEAU
Dessuro g. Co, the Purehssers--The
Former Firm Expects to Erect
Larger Plant Next Spring, But
Will Lease Meanwhile.

Another business change In the granite
industry was made yesterday afternoon
when Hoyt and Lebouryeau sold their
plant on the Smith meadow at North
Barre to Dcssuro & Co., hustling young
firm which has been doing business until
recently in one of the Bolster set OF
buildings on Granite street. The change
means progress for each firm, as the
purchasers viii secure better equipped
accommodations, and the selling firm OF
Hoyt a. Lebouryean will eventually erect
large plant. At least, such is their
plan at present, and meanwhile they
intend TO lease plant, retaining their
business in Barre.
When Dessnro & Co. sold their plant
exclusive of building, which they rent
ed a few weeks ago to Sector & Co., the
members have been looking about for
a good opening, and they finally came to
a trade with Hoyt & Lebourveau at a
price about $1,000. The plant is the
one which was erected twelve years ago,
being purchased by Hoyt s. Lebouryeau
five years ago, after they had already
been in business four years in another
part of the city. Since the purchase
at that time, Hoyt s. Lebouryeau have
added much to the equipment Of the
plant, ID being now provided with mod.
ern appliances, so that Dessuro & Co.
win step night into a plant ready for
lse and capable OF accommodating .
gang or more Of men. They were em-
pl0ying about that number in their old
place The members Of the firm Of
Dessuro n Co. are Nelson LarocheIle,
Ludger Roux and Theodore Dessuro.
The well known firm Of Hoyt & Leb-
ourYeau Is composed Of Alderman George
G, Hoyt and Willis A. Lebouryeau. Their
business has felt the need Of larger
quarters for some time, and the firm had
practically arranged TO erect an addition
to their plant, when Dessuro & Co. came
along with an urgent offer to buy. Hoyt
& Lebourveau have been running their
plant to its capacity and have enjoyed
a good and constantly growing patron
age. Both are recognized as among the
reliable business men Of the place. and
it viii be pleasing that they are to
continue business here.
The two modern manufacturing plants
which are being erected on the HGale
in the north end of the city
are approaching completion and will add
much to the industrial growth OF the
city. Marion & O'Leary hope to get
moved into their plant by the last Of
next month, while the Dewey Column
Cutting Works will probably wait until
spring opens before they make their
change. Both these plants, while not
the largest iii town, will Be thoroughly
1t is on the style Of them
that Hoyt & Lebouryeau expect To
build.

BARRE MEMS PROTEST
MAY KILL THE BILL
BY Which It Was Sought to Take Away
from Unions che Regulation Of APP
prentices- Bill Will Be Re-
ported UnfayurabIv.

A large number Of labor union men
from Barre went to Montpelier last even
ing to register their protest to the legis-
lative committee OH immigration and in
dustrial affairs against the passage Of
the bill by Mr.. Bloomer of West Rutland
which seeks to take the matter Of the
regulation Of apprentices from the labor
organizations. Il provides a fine Of IS
or imprisonment for 10 days in Jail.
or both, for any act to prevent person
from becoming an apprentices to any
trade.
P. F. Mccarthy, president Of the Yer
mont branch Of the American Fedora
tion Of Labor, Robert Honeyford Of
Hardvick, first vice president, J. F..
Marr. S. Hollister Jackson and Alexander
Ironside OF Barre were present and spoke
against the bill The labor men sus-
pected the real authorship OF the bill,
because Mr. Bloomer is employed by the
Vermont Marble Co, but Mr.. Royce Of
Proctor said that it was not Vermont
Marble Co. bill.
As it is at the present time, there are
four apprentices to every gang Of gran.
ite cutters. and one to every two Jour.
neymen tool sharpeners. According to
this scale. there are 600 Jobs for appren-
tees in Barre and but 95 are employed.
The labor unions do not do anything to
prevent a young man from learning his
trade; in fact. they are ANXIOUS to help
him to It, but they want to regulate
the apprentice business. Representative
Tsldcn OF Barre City was alert in getting
after the bin as an unjust measure to
the labor unions. and has worked hard
against its passage BY explaining its bad
features. The committee voted unsni-
moasly to report the bill unfaFesably.
