Labor Agitation and San Francisco Improvements

One of the reasons for urging at this time the building of a great government establishment in San Francisco—with wharves, warehouses, and other extensive improvements—was to help out the struggling city by the expenditure of a large sum of money. But the demands of the labor-union agitators have become so extravagant that it is found that the work can not be done within the appropriation. While the times are propitious for good wages and plenty of work, they are also favorable for strikes and idleness, on account of the large sum of relief money on hand.
