Seek Labor's Assistance.

Through the splendid efforts Of labor

that we are on friendly terms with or

and ranges are worthy of patronage is
rapidly becomi, we'll known to the rank
and file Of trades unionists. but we are
experiencing difficulty. in which / take
the liberty Of asking your friendly Offices
The facts are that merchants who
have heretofore sold orr goods are ex-
ceedingly slow to believe that our rela-
tons are now SO friendly that our goods
will be purchased by trades unionists,
and. further than that many of them do
not seem to think there is much sincerity
on the part of some Of the members of
labor unions with reference to the pur-
chase OF our goods, and that there is no
particular need Of giving other than or
binary consideration to our goods
Il am sure that all of this impression
could be removed and that we would soon
be receiving the cooperation of such mer-
chants as are Indifferent If you could
see your way clear to have appointed
committees from the different unions to
call upon the merchants whose names I
give below and assure them Of our friend
