A wo,sKINGMEN's CONGRESS

"OJSIxIN GMEN'S CONGRESS.
 The Trades Union Congress which has just been held HI England was notable meeting of workingrnen. When these meetings were first held fifteen years ago they were looked upon with suspicion, but there is more con- fdenoe noW' in the good sense of English workingmen, and the great meeting just held at Manchester was generally recognized as useful
 One of the principal topics discussed at the meeting was the Employers Liability act, and it is interesting to how this act from which so much was expected has worked. Two grievances have grown up under the act. Some employers have been in the habit of paying any persons injured in their employ their full wages for six weeks after the acci- dent. By these means the injured person is induced not to begin an action during that period; payment is then discontinued and the injured person cannot bring an action, as he has failed to give notice of his intention within the statutory period. Another plan by which the workman loses the benefit of the act is that he is pursued by insurance men, who prevail upon him to contract him self out of the act. In connection with vari- ous insurance companies an Accident lTund' has been established, to which w,orkmen and employers contribute. For sm.ell weekly payments by both parties certain benefits in case of accidents are proposed to the workman, and, in consequence of his payments, tho en- ployer is not liable under the act. In this way the workman bartsrs away the rights o;ve,, him bp the act whereas by subsoribin, to the insurance funds belonging to the union he might retain those rights and get his insurance money in addition It may be added that otherwise the act has worked ad- mirably, and th>t many injured persons have recovered substantial damages.
 The question of the representation of labor in Parliament was discussed. The President said that, in his opinion, the first step toward that end was the assimila tion of the borough and the county franchise. He pointed out also that if all the members of trades unions represented at the Congress were to subscribe one penny week they would have $125, ,OOO a year. enough to pay twenty five represbn- tatives of the working classes in Parliament. The discussion on the subject ended ip the passing of a resolution which stated that, in the opinion of the Congress, larger direct representation of labor in Parliament is not only desirable but necessary, and that the time has arrived when this question should pass from the region of abstract discussion to the domain of practical politics, and pro- vision should be made for tho support of such representatives when in Parliament by the State.
