THE SPeRCHES The chair then introduced Mr. Garland, ex- judge from Texas, wo said there were three | vicious systems in vogue which shoald ere J the attention of the workingmen, and which they must grapple with—the public land sya- | tem, the monetary system and the revenue | system. He denounced the prodigality of oar jovernment in ihe land grants to railroads. ‘be present national banking system tends to overshadow all other systems, making the rich | man richer, and sinking the poor man lower down. The whole theory of national banke is becoming a fraud. The monied aristoc- racy growing up in this country through our system of finances is outstripping the monied aristocraciesof Europe. The times are ripe fur reform, and the labor movement all over our land is significant of a coming storm. Hon. J. W. Hazelton, of New Jersey, was the next speaker, and said he was not so much a teacher of the people as learner. He had al ways been a laboring man—he had Iabored in the flelds as a farmer, and his 6: —— were with the present movement, which he regarded a8 most important one. ‘In alluding to the expression in the resolutions in relation to the architect of the Treasury department failing to ede the e'ght-bour law, he said the pow- | ere it be are responsible for it, and the archi- tect thould be removed. He would not say that he was in favor of the eight-hour rale for ali classes—it would not do for the agricultural in- terests of the country. The ten-hoar system had been tested for the past forty-five years, and bad been found to work well. Hon. Samuel Dobbins, of New Jersey, was next introduced, and said he was in entire sym- pathy with the movement of the working men. e related some amusing anecdotes to illustrate his points, which were well received, and ad- vised against ail conflicts between capital and labor. Dr. Thomas, of the bookbinders’ union, was | the next speaker, and gave his views at consid- erable length, favoring the eight-hour principle in every department of industry. He was fol- lowed by Messrs. Maher, A. Coffin, and others. Similar meetings were held in New York, Bufialo, Baltimore, Boston, Columbus, and | other cities, and similar platforms to the above | were adopted, and opponents of the eight-hour system denounced generally.
