Massive Saturday payrolls sweep Kewanee cash in hand
The Kewanee Star Courier reports a Friday history of pay, with wages totaling over sixty thousand dollars due and largely paid in cash Saturday. The Western Tube payroll neared 340,000, plus contractor payments, miners, teachers, railroad workers, and clerks receiving weekly or monthly wages. The surge boosts local commerce as teamsters, carpenters, and merchants feel the brisk circulation across the mercantile district. A large weekly payout accents industrial strength and regional prosperity in Kewanee.
