newspaper writer's find that former

many reasons for this. The principal

To the inquiry, What do you
think of the present labor condi-
tions?" he replied:
This chronic hostility between
labor and capital is to be deplored.
The laborer and the capitalist should
be warm allies instead of enemies,
as their interests are closely inter-
twined and inseparable.
"The prayer that I will offer for
my country in he present emer-
