BANDON RECORDER. î POLLY LABKIN I While hosts of these shirt factories are being run in this city, yet they are not all run by white men, “ more’s the pity,’’ but by Chinamen, who not only keep a large number of Chinamen at work at the machines—cutting and fitting, but trying on as well where the shirts are made to order—but white girls as well. Many of the girls who are working in these Chinese factories are indifferent, and it is a matter of small moment who their employers are just so they get their money; but tiiere are a few who are shy, gentle girls, who feel that it is almost a degradation to work for the Celestials, but who have lieen forced through a chain of misfor tunes to accept what they could get in the way of employment. Polly feels sorry for these unfortunate girls, and longs to help them out of their troubles. MOTTOES OF STATES. THE DEADLY COBRA.
