THE MOUNTED CHARGE.
STRIKE LEADER'S DENUNCIATION. made a statement to a Dominion reporter yesterday respecting the police charco in the Post Office Square on Thuraowr. oT^miug,'
Mr. Farlnnd dosoribed the charge as a most unwarrantable action on the part of the police. Ho said that riding down strikers and public would on'y '«■>", to violence of tho worst kind. ft e ro not looking for that," he added. We don't want it. While this strike lasts wo want it to go on without anything of that kind, but it is quite certain that such conduct on tho part of tho police will only incite tho men." Mr. liarland made it clear that in decrying what he characterised as incitement to violence, ho did not wish anyone 1 to think that .the strike committee was weakening in any way—they simply wanted to avoid trouble in which people 'might bo injured. The position was, he said, that the men wanted to go back to work under the old agreement.
