DENT the great CONVERSIONS OF our movement IS
the reduction es the h0uTa Of labor to eight. We
20 not desire 70 oyertnrn the institutions Of the
country or 70 interfere with the individual rights
@f any capitalist, but simply claim the privilege
ef eight hours for labor, eight hours for selEen-
tgre, and eight for Fepose. This we ask, Mr. Pre-.
sident, and to this We ask your cordial indorse-
lAent 1ae whole o. the Eorking people of The
sssoantFy ere beginning 70 pc awe 70 this. They
,san nope fcg no assistance irom the capitalists
INTO their ewn hands, and they now but ask some
recognition as the hands Of the headof the nation.
they ask II, believing he is IN sympathy with
them and they viii meet with favorable response.
1l1ey ask i, as the same time determining that
they Wil prosecute the agitation Of this thing as
zart legally and JUSTLY Al they cam and until they
nave achieved the eonsnmmation of their just
