! J. II. Phillips, Of No. 1900 Maple

the following statement regarding TIE

teams for hauling:
THE Transfers Association OF VIII

About year ago we were paying

time We are paying from S45 10 So

from $50 TO $50 a ton; at the present
time we are paying from $50 10 $50 a

81 a bushel. Horse shOeing was 81 30
and 81, IL is now $3.50 and "a. Wagon
and hsraess repairing bills have also
doubled
Therefore, the wagon owners and
drivers are asking for more money. II

state that were II no. for their teams
they would go in the hole
III the lre department can't exist on
what they receive from the city. It
would be an expensive proposition for
the city Of Wilmington. We are now
asking Si.25 per hour for two horses,
wagon and driver. and 70 cents per
hour for single horse. cart and driver
"A mechanic can make from % cents
to $50 an hour with s25 or $50 In
vested In tools then we do not think
we are asking anything out OF the way
when we have from 500 to $500 in
vested IN our teams Let the public
consider this"
An officer Of the Transfers Assoola-
ton OF Wilmington, issued the follow
ing statement today giving reasons for
the demands Of the association for the
Increased rate for team hire. that will
become effective April 5.
We are now getting 30 cents per
hour for single teams, and 80 cents
an hour for double teams. We are
not able to meet our expenses and p1y
our debts at the above prices. We are
now compelled to ask 75 CENTS per
hour for single teams and SIPS per
hour for double teams.
Saying nothing OF the cost OF horses.
wagons and harness, we now pay SIS
and $50 per ton for hay: 81 per bushel
for corn; s25 per ton for straw: ss5 to

the cost OF feeding one horse, per dry,

Out OF 81 per day we have inst one
dollar left for the upkeep OF shoeing.
wagon and harness repair and other
Incidental expenses.
"Since the man with a trowel and
hammer, and hatchei and saw Is
worth 81 25 per hour. which is no more
than he deserves. considering the high
cost OF living, we think that a pair OF
horses, costing 800 to $500. and harness
costing s75, a wagon Si65 and a driver
Is worth 1925 per hour. We are glad
to state to the public our reasons for
asking more money for team hire"
