WORKING TAILORS' JOINT STOCK COMPANY , No . 314 , OXFORD STREET , near Hanover-square . The condition to which , the Journeymen Tailors of London have been reduced , has lately become well known . The above Company consists solely of Journeymen Tailors , who feel that the work of improvement must depend upon their own efforts They have , therefore , resolved to place themselves before the Public in the spirit of an equal and honourable competition While they venture to hope that the circumstances under which they thus ask the support of the Public may entitle them to some share of its patronage in the first instance , they will only hope and seek to maintain that patronage by the fairness of their mode of conducting business , and the excellence of the Articles they shall supply . The Company guarantees that every Article supplied by it shall be made on the Premises . It will thus be enabled to supply first-rate articles at a price no higher than that which the inferior articles now made at so much misery to the workman under the " sweating system , " are supplied by the great houses which encourage that system . WILLIAM JEFFRIES , Manager . May 25 th , 1850 .

THE WORKING TAILORS ' ASSOCIATION , 3 i , CASTLE-STREET , OXFORD-STREET , Opposite the Pantheon . A few Journeymen Tailors , anxious to rescue themselves and their class from the miseries and degradation consequent on unlimited competition , and f > om the abuse of the powers of capital as lately exhibited to lhe pub . ic by the Morning Chronicle newspaper , in his letters on " Labour and the Poor , " have resolved to seek a remedy in their own exertions rather than in 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 first-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 arc at once able to compete with the slopseller , 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 inoial 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 PRICKS . FOtt CASH ON DELIVERY . £ P . ( 1 .
