NOTICES OF THE PRESS. "The subject has been his specialty for probably a dozen years, and it is safe to say that he is more thoroughly and intimately acquainted with it than any other man in the country."--_Lancaster Intelligencer, Pa._ "The best work on the subject--we regard it as a great step toward the solution of pending difficulties."--_North Western Presbyterian._ "No man in this country speaks with the same authority or deserves more earnest attention. Must take its place as an essential in the education of every one who has heart to feel or desire to comprehend what ground for dissatisfaction really exists."--_Orange Chronicle._ "Deserves the most careful study. No question just now should more profoundly interest the thinking men of all classes."--_The Age of Steel._ "The review of the labor organizations in this country from the year 1800 to 1886 is a masterly presentation, and will justify even a poor man buying the book."--_The Beacon._ "A timely book by an able hand. We heartily commend this book to every thoughtful citizen."--_Portland Argus._
