PREMIER'S ADVICE TO UNIONISTS.
(special to "the press.") WELLINGTON, February 10. Some advice to Unionists on the question of unity wue given to a deputation by the Premier last evening. One of the deputationists had referred with a certain amount of warmth, when speaking of those who hod attacked the Arbitration Court, to persons who were always quarrelling with someone, and who had made the Trades' Council a bear garden. They were men, he said, who represented nobody but themselves. Mr Seddon, in the course of his reply, while not referring to any particular statement, pointed out how much more desirable it wne that the Tradee Councils and all Unions should endeavour to work together in harmony. They were all trying to do the beet they could in the interests of labour. Their object was the same. It was a mistake for one to say « thing disparaging another. Let those who had not been indiscreet hope that those who had spoken against the President of the Court would ah&r their views. They did not know tfS Judge as well a* he (Mr Seddon) knew him, or they would not have said these things.
