Don't you think that the time has rrived when the working people as reducers of wealth and as citizens, qua! to the citizenship of any other lass of the community should aid this such a manner as to make their influence and power felt? I do. Don'-t think that the power of corpora- ions should be curbed? Don't you ind it essential to protect the interests of the people, the liberties of the people, to retain in all its pur- ty the franchises of the citizens? Why, the possessors of wealth in all orms can live in any country, and enjoy the liberties that, they want. It depends upon the depends upon the disinherited classes of all to achieve greater liberties, or to maintain these liberties which they possess. The mission" of the wage worker is to maintain the institutions of liberty and per- perpetuate 'the freedom of our people, even to greater degree.

Our movements pertain to improving not "only the financial condition, the economy of the people, but it is also a movement to defend their moral, social and political position in life. How can that be done, some ask. The organization of labqr, the Trades Union, seem to be the bugbear of thousands. They say we onfy Seal with the question of wages, the question of hours, and don't bother with anything else. Is this so? Is the result as indicated or as charged? No! The fact is you will find that organizations of labor seek to reduce the hours of labor.

They say there is a large measure of success, possibly, attendiug the efforts of people in other directions, but there is no questions that so deeply strikes, into the citadel of poverty. The people propose to have less hours of toil'; they say that in this, the latter part of the Nineteenth century, that the inventions of mar chinery, the application of steam and electricity, that it is not just, that it is improper to ask workers to work so many hours a day when it is so easy to produce wealth. They say that it is uujust, and unfair to ask one portion of the working people to toil' ten, eleven, twelve more hours a day, while there are hundreds of thousands of our fellow men walking the highways and byways of our country vainly looking for employment. Wherever and so long as there is one man or one woman looking for work and cannot find it, the hours of toil of those who do work, is. too long.

Mr. -Compers here went into a detailed analysis the benefits that would follow the introduction of the eight hour work day. He cited the hours, with the following eloquent peroration, My friends, let us remember that we bave duties to perform to ourselves to our wives and to our families, to countless millions yet unborn, who will praise us or curse us as we de serve. Ring'the words through every hamlet, eight hours means higher wages. More work willing workers, less hours of idleness and more of leisure; less tramps to sell- their manhood; less human souls compelled to drudgery; less rob- ery of the schools- and the play ground; more comforts' for each family of the people, less filching from The poor and neejly, more things produced for more, and a better people; more things consumed, a greater and grander- market, more wealth, more health, less poverty, and sickness.

The kingdom of earth encircling, eight hours to-day, less hoars if needs be for to-morrow, a prelection to the unprotected, poverty fleeing before the hope of a brighter present, more magnittccut aud brilliant and humane future.

That progress, freedom and intelligence were the natural result of such movements and that in all countries, states or even industries in the same localities, where- everthe hours were longest, wages were lowest, and where daily toil shortest wages highest. He urged that men in any given establishment, those wage workers who enter the factory earliest and- leave it latest always receive the lowest wages, while those who enter latest and leave earliest in the day receive the highest wages.

This was due, he to the fact that those who have more leisure acquire improved tastes and desires which culminated into necessities, which had to be conceded. He -held that the movement tended to raise the people socially, physically, economically as politically. It made a better, more progressive, enlightened and independent people. -In scathing words he condemned the charge that the leisure secured would be used in drink or result vice, showed that the short hour workers were the most sober.and-regular-in,their habits and improvements were continually noticeable among those whose hours of labor baqe been reduced.
