Eight Hour Man Barnes A Michigan Pioneer In Labour
Hon William M Barnes died last week in this city having the honor of being the original eight hour man in Michigan. Twenty five years ago he embraced the eight hour idea and started a small shop of his own rather than work ten hours. He never joined a union but pursued his conviction while running a cabinet shop and independent business. He apprenticed seven years with a piano firm in London and spent evenings in free schools and lectures, absorbing knowledge and attending public meetings and parliament sessions, where he heard many noted men. He ran for Congress in 1878 on the Greenback ticket.
