look forward hopefully to the time
when careful. intelligent, honest men will

union as conducted to-day. One OF two
things is plain-that the unions must be

they go out of existence. My sympathies
are with the American citizens who in

liberty, and pursuit of happiness, and
these include peaceable, capable mechan-

unions and are now held as slaves under

subject Is fully understood / am sure
every right-minded person will agree that
he was morally as well as legally entitled

nothing to do with 1t. Whatever else may
happen, Mr.. Hyde will not hesitate to se-
cure public exoneration of these base
