THE DISPUTE IN THE BUILDING

TRADE.

With the best wishes towards the working
men engaged in the various branches of the
building trade, and with no desire to aid the
masters—indeed with a wish to look at the whole
mutter as outsiders, it nevertheless occurs to us
that there are sonic general principles or state-
ments urged on either side which deserve the
careful consideration of the working classes at

large.
The men demand that there should be but six
hours' work on the Saturday and nine on the
other weekdays, and that the rate of pay should
be increased from 81 to 9d per hour. By all
means let them make this demand if it seem
good to them so to do, but they can only be war-
ranted in doing so by Vie stow of the labour
market, or, in other worus. by being able to as-
sign a good reason for this demand. But it so
happens that the chief reason assigned turns out
to be a bad one, simply because it shows that the
state of the labour nooket in the building trades
is not such as to induce masters to agree to the
demand. The men say that the rise in their
wages will be only about 7d a week, which is
manifestly incorrect; but that their object is to
give employment to the unemployed artizans,
who at present form about one-tenth of the
trade. Now at the first blush this seems very
self-denying, but this impression ia speedily re-
moved when we call to mind the fact above men-
tioned, that the wages of the already employed
would be increased, while the self-denial would
really be on the part of the masters, who would

CRADLEY HEATH.

SUNDAY Scum'', UNION.—The annual meeting of this
Union was held in the New Connexion School-room,
where, after tea, a public meeting was held, over which
Mr. J. Lewis, of Cradley, presided. The annual business
was transacted, and addresses delivered by the Revs. 0.
Cousins and M. Morgan, and Mr. Meliar, of London, and
other gentlemen. Mr. Melba, who attended as a deputa-
tion from the parent unbm in London, delivered a splen-
did address which was loudly applauded by those present.
The whole of the proceedings were marked by a spirit
of enthusiasm which augurs well for the future imccese
of the union. The singing of the Doxology concluded
the meeting, which was very numerously attendei.
