Exufj> * giving their ftupport, employers haw F nothing to do with tho iiliovo move-, ment, It: is quite evident that " Eesident" is not. sin assistant, nor has lie miy interest in the matter. I admit that the trouble is being caused through a certain 'individual,' who is ikying to infringo on our early closing >vsteip. K " Ilcbidrai." thinks that wo should treat him with eoimwpt and shut our eyes to tho importation of Chinese labour into our little town without a struggle, ifc would show r' poor spirit and want of energy on th part of all employees. Since thi . employers forfeited the extra hour* and ngrcecj' to close at G p.m.;.': maintain that it is tho duty of nl employees to watch (heir employers interest?, hy doing all in their powei to prevent infringements. Trusting to have your support, and sk that ol the general public, I mn, etc., An Assistant. 25th February, 1890.
