The CRINHeB SHoKNAKKRs.-The working
men of the entire country appear to be aroused
to action By the importation Of the seventy five
Cinnamon into Massachusetts, to make shoes
Mass meetings Of the trades unions and of un-
skilled lab0rerB are being called in every direc-
ton, and strong pressure is already brought
10 bear upon Congress to pass Senator Wilson's
or some other bill prohibiting contracts for
CoolAe labor tae Il is calied) under certain con-
ditons and restrictions. The followers of every
trade seem TO be fearfully excited and alarmed
at the prospect Of being thrown out of employ
ment, or being compelled to labor at reduced
rstes Of compensation, by the prospective in
fux OF Asiatic cheap competition. .n
The Boston Post (Democratic) says The
importation OF Chinamen to work In o Massa-
chusetts shoe factory Is an experiment which
naturally provokes oppposition from those
already trained to the craft But It is directly
brought about by the violent measures which
the trade organizations have seen fit TO take
to force respect for strikes and compel the reg
ulation Of business according to their ideas
Combinations Of workingmen for mutual assist
ance and Improvement are worthy Of encourage
ment and appreciation; but when trade unions
degenerate into bands OF rufiians organiz zed to
beat innocent men who are willing to work
when the Union commands strike, the sooner
employers I'LL up their factories with nom Union
workingmen men, the better It will be for All
parties. IL is understood that the North Adams
Cinnamon are only on trial, but the experiment
promises well. - f.f
