bitter that there is today fear Of d

What makes the workmen particularly
incensed Is that the strike was called

The strike was really not so much OF
a strike at any time as a lockout Ii
was as q lockout that it began, some
thing like 10000 men being forced out.
The labor unions feared that the En-

resolved to take the offensive.
It is generally conceded now that this
action was the height Of folly. The
