THE TAILORESSES’ LOCKOUT.
Air A. R. Barclay, M.H.R., has forwarded the foHowing telegram to the Premier:—“ Many appeals have been made to me to do something or to make gome suggestion to end the deadlock now existing re tailorcsses. I venture therefore to suggest that you should intimate that if no settlement be made -'within a week the Labor Department would hire a suitable room and give employment to the girls now out of work, in order that a fair trial may be given them. I venture to think that a' very fair profit could be made on the transaction, and that the experiment could be very easily and inexpensively made, and possibly a permanent factory'established.”
