RERUKED BY A FRIEND.

William r. Hearst-in explaining
and commenting upon the recent strike
of compositors on his two Chicago
newspapers-admini a mild re-
Duke to labor unions-of which he has
been and still is a conspicuous friend.
He tells them and the public that
there is at present a tendency in the
labor union movement which should be
materially altered or wholly eliminated
for the benefit of the movement" This
finds expression in making charges
for work that is not actually done
"in compelling the employment of a
great many more men than are neces-
sary TO perform properly given work.
and in "the limitation of production
to the capacity of the least productive
man" Persistence in these Injurious
methods" Mr.. Hearst says, will in
evitably weaken the support Of the
friends of the labor unions and ma :
terially strengthen the opposition" of
their enemies.
