Summary/Abstract: In the Sarajevo newspaper Srpska riječ dated June 27, 1907, a short notice was published stating that in the quarry near Gračanica (stone quarry) owned by Ignac Rozenšpic, workers, especially those of Serbian nationality, laborers from Gračanica, work up to 15 hours a day and that their working hours last from morning until evening. The anonymous writer of the article wonders if there is anyone in Gračanica who can prevent this. In connection with this public criticism, the competent authorities conducted an investigation in the District Office in Gračanica at the request of the Provincial Government for Bosnia and Herzegovina. This paper relates to the course and results of the investigation regarding this article.
