Three wiine—es were examin- Charles Estes, President of the King factory; C. H. Phinizy, Presi dent of the Augusta lactory. and Pit- rick’ Walsh, manarer of the Phroni- cle. Mr. Estes said the labor of tbe lactones was alt native. The opera tives worked eleven hours each day. and die avenge wages paid is about eighty cents a day. lie thought th- operatives had thriven under tin eleven hour system. The inanufac- luring industry generally was about to.make both ends meet this year The cau-e of the decliue he thought was over production. He thought the reason why our roarse cotioi good-could compete with Eiielsn. and Germany in loreigu markets wa- 1 because we could make more cio'h- ’ ing iu a given number of hours. He ilidn’t think our rights needed pro- lectiou. Mr C. H.
