pany, that serves as Minot's utility

"The employers and the body OF the

AT this time I think it essential

1t is not so bad as made to appear by
some of the public speakers and writ
ers, particularly those who are not by
experience or otherwise qualified to
testify or to express opinion.
There have been instituted in the
past year good many strikes and
there have been in places, disorders,
riot and injury to persons and prop
erty. These strikes did not represent
antagonisrn between capital and labor
so-called. In most, If not all instances,
these We're precipitated by union labor
leaders acting on their own initiative.
Inc Ol1leTeHCeS, ulSputeS anu COH-

leaders and the managers OF bust

in few, IL any, cases has there been
any serious trouble between the man
ayers of industry and the employees
generally or any reasonable claims on
the part of the majority of the en-
ployes for higher wages or more ia
vorable living conditions, which We're
not promptly and mutually adjusted
In fact, for a long time the employees
in this country have been receiving
larger compensation and better work,
