TRADE AND LABOUR COUNCIL.

An adjourned meeting of the imM'% , in the Working Men's ui ubl Mr Heslop presided, and there were sis: o2i delegate present. . ncr PROSPECTS OF THE COUNCIL.-In «»».' ing the meeting the chairman skid 2e ££ sorry to see that .here was anch a small £ tendance. It was evident that the Zkit men did not see the necessity f or cornS? and tfau apparently arose from a m i ß 3 standing of the objects of the organffion' When the last Council dirolvef th« «*" engaged la the revision of the rale/ 7 c wh eh it appeared tbat the objects wm^T letter the condition of the workingXa^ to assist each other in BB m»n *«"• establishing the eight hour, BS^ tearter iiipport to the trades join $ V»° Conncil, to give moral assistan^B^ . of dispute, and to render pecuniar, .wf «.,.. of need from .ped.fiSriTjg*, s-xieties, according to nnmbers wiv? in hi. possession a copy of the rales of tv Sydney Trade and Labour Council ' !

To effect ttibbSfitS the hours of work, consolidating ZTu hours system wherever p.acticable » S were, the chairman said, several seerW t labour who were under a rnZS? . regarding the intentions otSTSSSSSSS who did not consider that tb^JSkSS such a society. The worknuKS I* getting 13s and 14s per daT^W*?? " mtafied, and did no(see XSffi derived from joining. Butthu^ ™uM no l always remaiu the same. Itwnawvi i : tbat the capitalist would aUow^C w£ i of wages to continue if ■&&s£s&& i The speaker referred to seveni X , which the. OnueU had been hSSSfe I bringing before the House with some effect If the workmen combined to eeVaMHi' ' "P? B™'*8 ™'**1™ Mb better off in the end. ab a matter oTLi the Government in the House of I^2 sentatives was composed of capitalist who had really been placed thett^bv the woiking men. The meaiures which were carried in the House for tha pretestlon of capital were invariably effi. cient, and worked well, while thoi^w . the protectioa of labour were oiten inopera. • tive, and liable to be eaJJy npiet bV"X blet. xhe Land Transfer Act and Wire* 1 lating to mortgages were referred to asbeina ! well constmctea, and proof against qniw " j bles. laws anch as tbe Employment <&"'•■ \ Ftnulei Act and other measures weta I pointed ont as being so loose and badly framed tbat convictions could not be cc. ; cured under them, All this, the cnair. | man said, stowed that capital was well (protected, while the contrary wag tha c«se to far as lobonr was concernedi \ Seeing that another election was 6m, ing on shortly, and that tbe work* j ing men could put in as their reprasenta« ( tives whom they liked, be could not under. ) stand why such apathy should be shown !in the Council. It would therefore (be for those present to say whether ! they would persevere, or would allow the Council to lap«e nntil tha working man found tbat the shoo really pinched, and woke to the necessity for the i protection of their interest?.—Mr 0. B. • King said unless thsy could etart with a better representation of the trades.' it would be desirable to wait till tha | working men really recognised the necel* sity for such an organization. Ho con. I ! sidercd the apathy shown by the repre* > { tentatives of the various trades to bo piti. ful. Speaking of his experieuce in Hatsa* ■ chnes«tts, be said that in one city which left the trades union the men were actually working at wages about twenty percent. lower than those ruling elsewhere.1 It | iieemed strange to him that after the efibrta | to resuscitate tbe council such asigpal failure should have been the result, I {Jn» - ; less greater interest were shown, he did not care to continue the position of flecretary,-. • Mr Middcton disagreed' with the last speaker, and thought that at least three* fourths of the trade of Auckland, though not represented Uiorc that evening, weie in favour of the organization, , ■ Mr Thwaites, who was present at flip invitation of tbe (jliaimun, addressed ttfVif meeting. He said that judging^ from thu attendance at the meet' ing, 'he would be inclined to believ(*r that the working men were so prosperous and satisfied that they did. not want any• tiling of this kind, and judging from' ma opinions expressed by capitalists, ihey wire of the same opinion too. Usly last night ' they bad read in tbe Stab that Or. Campbell I comidered ■jhat tbe prosperity o£ the work iDg classes was interfering with the 'pro. grecs of the countrvr Everywhere was to be found evidence that capital was combin. ing to crush labour. People were fedou porridge in Scotland, and capitalists, if they could, would not* give the working man anything better heie, The speaker proceeded to make a vigorous onslaught on the capitalist class, who^ he said, were swindling the native* off the face of the earth, and, he was sorry to tay, were being assisted by the Governinenti TLey were getting land at Is and 1« 6d an acre, while the legitimate settler had to pay £2 10s an acre for it. And then they crlta for the introduction of agrkulfiru .; Übonrers, and tor what! To rednoa wages, crush labour, and assist la their . own aggrandisement. Reference wm nuuia .. to the pi omises given and broken by repre sentativea at thiir pleasure. JUe thougat an organisation such as the Trades and Labour Council wss necessary in theeomi munity. In the conrse of his peroration, the speaker referred to the flertn Hett Zealand Land Association introduced Mma time ago as a gigantic swindle, and hanflled the promoters «f It rather roughly,> H« charaotc-isod the shipment of frozen meat to BBcland as a combination on tho part of capitalists, .which would increase tho prite of meat. He asserted tbat in c6n«e(io(jnsß of the shipment of meat by the Mapratßi the consumer was now paying prices equal to an increase of ten to fifteen per cent, He also pointed out that the Goverameot annually paid £23 odd per bead for 1 tm ~ education of the children of wealthy puenta in the Grammar Schools, while a noise was , msde that the £3 odd paid for each child in the common schools was too great. Be did not think the Government had any right to nominate Governors of Grammar Schools or Universities. , , . After some further disenssiSn; the- meefa ing was adjourned tor.a fortnight, Mt Burke being »ppointed to ioterview; 4 tM trade representatives in the meantime, and invite their co-operation,
