importance he has it The charge of employing foreign labor lies at the door of the Consolidated Street Cur company The POST might go farther and say county commissioners who the interests of the county lo remain in the hands of the street car company's attorney are also to blame for not providing in the contract that the work should be done by Fort Wayne abor exclusively The car corporation can lo laugh at the of Fort It has them on the hip and resting in the assumption that it has a perpetual franchise uid that the common council will shut off all competition t goes its own sweet way raking in he boasted profit every year and when there is work to be done let Wayne laborers shift for themselves It will continue to do this intil competition destroys their The POST thinks it the

which is true The Post also said that three teams to a fellow living nine miles west of town had been given work which is also true This information the POST did not got from any member of the street car company or any of its but from the man in whose barn the three teams mentioned are now quartered This employe of the Consolidated monopoly then makes this extraordinary statement Any one who will
