IT is unlortun tie til at there should
be any trouble among tine machin-

Monday week, after being out on a
strike for SIX weeks or more. They
laid down their tools and walked
out yesterday morning, because
VIM. Cross ey aud Duncan Thatch-

placed over them. 1t must have
been Ill advised, as the ma jority of
the men, at the meeting held in the
Smith building in the afternoon,
voted to return 10 work to-day.
These two men had returned to
work after being out but short
time, hence the bad feeling between
them and the strikers. We are
pleased to see that reason prevailed
at the meeting yesterday. ard the
majority thought it better 10 return
10 work. Some OF the men who
went out on this strike have been
employed in these works since they
were boys, and this is their first
experience OF a strike that amounted
to anything. Its hoped there will
be no further disagreements be-
tween the men and the Company,
as they have all the work they can
do for the next three years. Hap.

one or two exceptions. May all
