with gnat earnestness, to oppose the

"It Is otit duty, as tillens," ho py.
claimed with force, "to stnnd flint

It wns at this Jimituie that Mr?

"The strike, it Is tine, did not u

Then? was a wild stoim of ibeois
over this epies-lon of Mi Mitchell's,
which would seem to Indicate that the
mine vvorkeis' ptesldent had slunk n

piessed. Mi. Mitchell then went Into n dis

of trades unions that wages woie never
