The latest kilograms from England bring
the news Of great meetings Of workingnen
in different parts Of the Kingdom to take
steps for the promotion Of Emigration So
cieties. There seems to be no other way
Of solving the labor problem. The sur
plus operatives must leave the country and
20 where there is work and wages. Cut
lery and cotton spinning are the two de-
partments Of British industry which have
suffered most from American competition
Our cutlery is supplanting the shefheld
cutlery in English markets, and our man
ufactured cottons are driving out the Eng
lish goods, because they are cheaper and
better. To compete with the American
products the English manufacturers have
been Obliged to cut down the wages OF the
operatives until they have reached a point
1t which it is hardly possible for them to
obtain the barest necessaries Of life. This
has led to strike upon strike, leaving the
mills idle and rusting. to consuming the
savings Of the working people; to the
breaking down OF the habits OF industry
and affording greater opportunities TO the
competing interests to make good their
foothold. For years this sort of thing has
been going on in Great Britain, and now
the day Of adjustment HIS come. The
only resources left is the reduction of the
operative force OF Great Britain by immi-
grafton from its manufacturing centers-

D red for the accelerated pace at which

appear to be fastening the contamination
OF that which in the ordinary course Of af-
fairs was inevitable. Among these disss-
