The Manitowoc tribune. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1866-1878, 1867-05-16
OUR CHICAGO LETTER.

EDS TRIBUNE The eight hour stri-
kers are not yet satisfied with the mis-
chief they have done and continue to as
servate that they will never give up
will starTe first" etc. But really
should know better. The instantaneous
demand which they created for labor
brought here great many workingmen
from other parts of the country many al
ready here saw that they could not afford
to throw away one fifth of their capital
which IS their labor and that employers
would never acceed to the cheerful prop
osltion that they should give ten hours
pay for eight hours work, SO they too
have gone to work and with the corupli-
ment OF new hands alredy here and ar
irving every day it is more than probable
that when the strikers do give up and
get ready to go to work, they will find
nothing for then to do. Still they insane
ly pursue their suicidal course Yester-
day they had three meetings ~; on Nil
Waukee avenue another on Clark street
and third away down at Carvillc where
they, were loudly and lengthily harrang-
ued by series OF excited worknen and
