VICTIMS or TRAoe-UNIoN TACTICS.
Policy of the walking Delegate and Its
Ruioous Effects.

An interesting story illustrating the
policy of the average labor delegate and
its effects is told in connection with the
present troubles at Hull. In September,
1891. the owners of the Carron and Her
mitage wharf, in London. offered their 800
lockers permanent situations at the
rate OF so shillings o week as sub
sttuts for casual labor. But the
union leaders objected to this ar
ranrement, for no other reason. ap-
parentlv, than because ii would tend to
weaken their own authority. lnasmuch as
under the permanent system there would
be more direct relationship between
emplover and employed. A strike followed.
and the 800 men ceased work. the idea
being that the wharf-owners would In this
way be compelled to abandon the pro-
posed change. But tho result was very
different, for the wharf-owners speedily
found three hundred other men who were
perfectly wiling 70 accept permanent STU
atlons AZ the rate of sos. q week, so that
the strikers remained out" for good. Of
these 800 victims Of trade-union tactics at
the Carron and Hermitage wharf IN 1881,
no fewer than 200 have gone to HUI as
free-labor men, and are now at work there.
II ia clear that they, at least, have learned
10 profit by experience and to appre-
ciate the folly of their former leaders.
Instead of being disadvantage
to the men employed at tne
docks the permanent system has
proved an unmIxed benefit to all
who ere under 1t. While the wages OF
miners. of engineers. and many. Others
have decreased. owing to depressed trade,
there has been no falling of in the wages
of the lockers with permanent engage
ments." and for the last two years they
have been drawing steadily between 80
shillings and 50 per week instead OF
having to scramble for odd jobs. IL - not
believed that any of these men will paw
anv further attention to the orders of labor
delegates.
