the working class had broken OF forever. He
asked the attention OF the meeting to address by
Mr. Motteshead on a subject connected with the
political power OF the people.
Mr.. MoTTEsHEAD who was received with warm
cheers drew orcible picture OF the position OF the
people before the reform movement Of 1882, con.
trasted that condition with their present condition
declared that The result OF the reform had been
only TO change the masters OF the people, but not
improve the government SO far as the people are
concerned for since the middle classes had been in
power, through the help OF the artisan classes, the
taxation Of the working classes had greatly IN.

the people were not pettered either in re-
gard to more equal taxation or social |
