Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Labor Bulletin of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts: January, 1897
No attempt was made to learn the number of laborers in each depart ment, the information supplied covering only the pay per day. When different rates were paid in the same department, the highest, lowest, and intermediate rates are given. When laborers were paid on some other basis than by the day, the facts are given in a separate column of the tables. We present, first, a table showing the departments of city labor, the cities having such departments being arranged alphabetically thereunder, with the rates of pay opposite the name of each city.
