Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Second Biennial Report of the Bureau of Industrial Statistics and Information of Maryland: 1886-87, Thomas C. Weeks, Chief of Bureau Gentlemen: A general review of the condition of the industries of Maryland at the close of 1887 suggests reasons for congratulation and hope. There are no existing disturbances between capital and labor, and in all the branches of trade there has been a steady revival during the year which encourages the belief that we have entered on a period of business prosperity of an abiding and substantial character. In some few of the industries, notably the coal and building, the rate of wages by the day and piece has increased, and in some the hours of labor have been reduced, but generally the standard of wages has remained as it was represented in the report of this office for 1886. Employment, however, has been constant, and with few exceptions the trades have enjoyed a prosperous and contented year. The development of Maryland as a manufacturing centre has been a source of great encouragement. Foreign capital is beginning to recognize the peculiar advantages which Maryland affords for the establishment of great industries. Its vast supplies of coal and timber in the western mountains, connected directly with the Chesapeake Bay by large trunk lines of railroad, the extensive water front affording unlimited opportunities for shipbuilding, navigation and the economical conveyance of freight.
