end hat The vep end and object OF their move
uent or stnse would be defeats I'd. For time
they went "a very well, bar, ia an evil hour, they
gave ear to the ,empter-they allowed themselves
10 be led fy the very men whom we caauoned
them az inst, and the result has been invasion
by ticD ofthe rights OF others, consequent vio-
lanon Of the law, aud several collisions with the
police, the last of which may b. attended with
lcss Of lie.
~ ere is no more pleasing spectacle than that
IN tied by industrious trades people who have sui
red under the exaetions Of capitalists until exist
ence has become u burden 10 then-until, by work
in both day and night, with The assistance OF their
wives and families, they cannot even procure the
common comforts Of lift-tbere is more
plea sing spt ctacle 20 our eyes, than TO see them
combine together for the purpose OF demanding
fair remuneration for iheir labor. They have
perfect legal aud moral hight 10 do so, aud he who
would find fault with them for tskGg such
course, is neither good citizen nor good
man But there is marked distinction be-
tween peaceably combining and refusing 10
work for less Than prescribed scale of wages and
attacking the persons, property, and rights OF their
neighboIs by force, sssaultBg those whose
poverty may compel them 10 labor for less than
the fixed rate, or interfering with The employers
who refuse to accede to IT, The journeyman who
works under price, has as much right to do so
legally others have to strike or as the employer
has to refuse 10 conform 10 the terms which the
strikers may fix upon, Ii sirhe cannot be car
ried on successfully by paying due and proper
regard TO those princi )es we are certain that il
cannot be done by departing from them.
II is for The taiiors to say whether they have
acted within the law or not, in their efforts to
secure Just and equitable return for their labor.
From the accounts of the late proceedings that
have taken place, il is certain that some parties
have committed wrong--eiher the police or them
selves. II the latter have been guilty Of such folly
as violating the law, their whole movement will lose
all the moral Influence which possessed at the be-
ginning, az well as the support of the community,
which will never, in any case, be extended to such
as break the peace or violate the law in any man
ner. Protection, encouragement, and sympathy
will also, on every occasion, be withdrawn from
those who attempt 10 carry out the doctrines of the
socialists, or give heed TO the anarchical teaching
Of those Impractical theorists. IL was oply the
other day that the most violent languages was used
by speakers in the Park-laDguage calculated TO
excite slmos, to frenzy the listeners, and gosd
them TO violate the law. What lie the meaning OF
such language the followingl-
Many among us have before been en- gagged In sighting

Now we put !, to all moderate, sensible, rational,
and sane mechanics, is this proper language to be
used IN county like this, where the laws equally
protect the rich and the poor, whqre all men are on
IA equality, and where all have within reach re-
medy for their wrongs, either by calling upon the
law, or by their own acts, within the law I Those
the sentiments Of the socialists, those disor-
gahzers who wish 70 see all that is good trarlpled
under foot, and who care nothing for the working
man or his interest, except fir he can be used
and abused to forward their owA views and amhi-
tcu, purposes.
In feeling Of sympathy and good will, We eau
upon the Iouueymcn tsilors to be cautious 10 their
movements. Let them turn a deaf ear to all who
counsel hsrsh measures. Let thcsl avoid, a. they
