There ia certainly no disputing thiH stat«- ment of Mr. Booth's ; therefore, it is ia con- sideration of thin "large number of men . . , . and their f:in?iliea," that the community here generally must naturally be dlspoNed t« urge Mr. Booth and his fellow millowners, to make any roasoiiablo and moderate con- cession for the present ; that the (wo months' work may be done while it is poc* aible to do it ; for there will be abundanct of time afterwards in which to agree upon terme which may be permanently satis- factory to both parties, so as to leava neit))«>r excuse nor occasion for any strike henceforth in tlie Ottawa luinlmr ^uaiAMc, at least It is understood now that no In* erease of wages is required, but onW whft^ appears to people gener?»Uy to be the very reasonable and moderate concession of tea hours work insl«;ad of eleven. A better op- portunity could scarcely occur for Mv. Booth to demonstrate that hi4 humane dispositfon may transcen't his natural firmnesB, or obstinacy (as the case may be), whenever ♦he occasi' ri may justify, or require, any BWch tempomry relaxation of the otherwiM ■ rigid rules of discipline. Should Mr. Booth now suffer this very favourable opportunity to pass unheeded, it would naturally m rery much to his discredit, and to tha* of his fellow millowners also, should th« strikers be induced in good time to yield to i^hat would be perhapu l>oth wise as well ob humane considerations (under tlie circum* stances), and so prove themselves mere humane, if not more obstinate than the mill- ownersi Or, failing this, should freijuent appeals have to be nifide during the winter to the charitablb feelings of the commnnity generally, owing to the ill timed firmness or obstinacy of both parties, it must be, of course, much to the discredit of both parties.
