without decrease Of pay. OF the
140 contractors Of the Builders As.
sociation, over 12j have granted the
carpenters their demand. The bal
ance, believe, will he forced to fol-
low the example OF the others.
Not more than fifty carpenters,
union and non-union, have had to
strike to obtain the eight-hours.
This Is not purely movement by
the trades associations, but union
and non-union men are on this ques-
ton, at least, united. Other trades
are falling into line, and ! am GER
tain that the movement will succeed
completely.
tits "A well-knUwn fact that the
supply Of labor in all countries ex-
ceeds the demand. This IL claimed
to be the case especially in the Unit
ed States. The object of trades
unions is to equallze the law of sup
ply and demand. Where eight men
are now employed ten hours a day
on certain work, under the system
now being agitated it would require
ten men to do the same amount of
work, thus providing work for two
more men. Many men opposed to
the eight-hour 0TrnIcnt are
prom tel by II sentiment of selfish
hess, iut3much AS they recognize
the fact iiIat the more unemployed
there are the better they can use
labor against itself to keep wages at
low standard. These are some of
ihe icasons set forth by the Eight
Hour League as reason for its or
ganization.
In the coming session OF congress,
10 meet in December, the labor
problem bids fair to become a lead
ing question In common with that
of the tariff. Once let the matter
come squarely before the representa-
tives of our people and our success
is assured at once.
No one can oppose the movement
ON Any but the most selfish grounds.
