This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1889 edition.

LTHOUGH the demand for a reduction ** the hours of labor to eight per day was made by the National Labor Union in 1866, and still later by the Industrial Brotherhood, the agitation did not assume very great proportions until the Knights of Labor took up the question by the adoption of the preamble of the last named society in 1878. Before entering upon the task of placing before the public the history of the movement since 1878, a brief survey of the field of operations previous to that date will prove instructive.

Those who take pains to study the question of machinery and its effect on labor will at once admit that it is absolutely necessary to reduce the hours of labor. The contrast between the hand labor of thirty years ago, and the machine labor of to-day furnishes a sufficient argument for those who take the side of shorter hours for the mechanic. I will not attempt to detail the efforts of Congress to give to labor a recognition of its ability to...
