For a considera6le length of 'time a movement has been, on among the artizens of Great .Britain .and the United Stews to. shorten the hours of labor.' The demand ;made inthe former -country wee. .that iaine hours should' 'constitute a legal clay's work instead of ten, but in . the 'United States, the de- mand' made requited still greater conceesione: The mechanics asf_ that Country sought to force their ems ployets into giving them ten hours' pep for eight hoars' work. In • Great Britain the &eject was sought • to be obtained by a series of " strikes" amoug the working. men. That is,. the employees of the large manufacturing establishments refus- ed in a -body to work unless their demands were aoceded to Theeni- pIoyers held out fora length.of time; , but in many instances,. Were ilia - mately compelled to give way to their: workinen, so that now the nine hour system is to a _considerable ex- tent operativein Groat Britain. • • In the United .States the itrtizans have not been so succeesful 111 carry- ing their movement .as in Great Britain. They, instead of ‘' mg," took other means to.. obtain their ends. The leaders in the Movement publicly agitated, among the workingclasses, and induced -them to resolve -to support no .oli; tician, or candidate for poltioal themselves . and the community at ors, Who would not inake the large, if they persist in the course eight'hours movement" a prornin- they have adopted, and that they. ent plank in his platfortn, Theresult. may be indirced to leave well of this was, to induce many poll_ alone, and be content to work their tiCians to agitate for the movement way up, unbil by industry and u - in and in the State Legis- •gitlity they attain to a position of latures.
