be the most important of the last
thirty years. The idea that In union
there Is strength is evidently foremost
in the minds of the leaders, and their
main purpose is to bring about an
amalgamation of some kind between
the different organizations, or at least
to have well-deflned understanding
as to unity of action on matters of
policy.
The Alliance people are more anX
ious about the amalgamation than the
L. NJ. b. A. leaders for the reason that
they have something to gain by it,
while the latter will lose. If the two
organizations should be brought to,
