The determination of the mechanics and
skilled laborers Of England to seek relief from
the low wages and consequent distress there by
emigration to America is beginning to cause
some uneasiness among the same classes of
workmen in this country. The indications of
improvement in business and return OF prosper
ity which surround US on every hand have
prompted the workmen to demand higher
wages. In some localities this demand was
complied with, but In others the employ
ers replied that it was yet too early in
the new era OF prosperity to risk an
advance OF wages. In nearly every
case the refusal to raise wages caused strike
one the part OF the workmen who looked upon
the present as most suspicious time for the
success OF such policy, as the employers
would prefer to yield rather than lose their
share of the rapidly increasing trade. This
view of the matter has induced the strikers to
maintain their position, but now comes the
news from England that general exodus of
workmen to the United States is being urged
and with much favor among those classes.
Only few days ago $50 skilled mechanics left
the town OF Bradford for this country, and 1t is
probable that the operatives of many of the
English cotton mills will follow. This labor
would, no doubt, gladly take the place of the
strikers here and hence the uneasiness among
the latter.
