      THE WORKING TAILORS' ASSOCIATION , 34 , CASTLE-STREET , OXFORD-STREET , ' _ Opposite the Pantheon . A few Journeymen Ta ilors , anxious to rescue themselves and their class from the miseries and degradation consequent on unlimited-competition , and from the abuse of the powers of capital as . lately exhibited to the public by the Morning Chronicle newspaper , in his letters ou " Labour and the Poor , " have resolved to seek a remedy in their own exertions rather than iu any parliamentary enactment , and in some system which shall combine their own interest With the interests of other classes of society rather than in that return to old customs now chiefly advocated in the trade , by which the benefit of the master and journeyman ( but especially of the former ) is sought to be realized at the expense of the consumer . '' They have , therefore , united together on the cooperative principle , possessing Hrst-rate talents in the Cutting and Working , department , and being supplied by several benevolent gentlemen , with sufficient capital ( which they are anxious to pay back on the first opportunity ) , they have commenced business on extensive premises in Castle-street , Oxford-street , to which and the accompanying list of prices attention is respectfully invited . It will be seen from the latter that they are at once able to compete with the siopseller , whilst realizing a fair profit themselves . They are mutually bound to devote one-third of their net profits to the extension of their numbers . It now rests with the public to stamp their experiment with success by favouring them with a liberal measure of custom , and thereby demonstrate , on an ever-widening scale , that health , prosperity , and moral worth can be secured to the operatives , and cheapness guaranteed to the consumer , by the faithful realization of the brotherly and Christian principle of cooperation . They wish not to injure the trade of any truly " honourable" employer , and venture to hope that all who feel that custom itself ought to have its morality , and who are willing to do what in them lies towards dealing fairly by the operative , will help them by their sympathy , and , as far ' as possible , by their orders . All who are friendly to this experiment , and wish it to succeed , should give it all the assistance in their power , and recommend it to others . LIST OF PRICES . VOH CASH ON DELIVERY . £ 8 . ( 1 .
