The Carpenters.

The Carpenters Association held private meet
ing, at Dcmilt Hall, over which Mr.. M. Pardey pre-
sided. The object OF the secret meeting was to
consult with the very large majority OF the men
who have been successful in the eghthour move
ment with view to securing for the few who are
still out pay during the time they may
remain. The meeting resolved to support all
who are now out, even should they be out for
months. The carpenters organization now numbers
$500 men, fully seyeneights OF whom are now en-
ployed. They are, therefore, In excellent spirits,
and fully determined to see all OF their number Sc
cured in receipt OF full days pay for eight hours
work.
