DELEGATES TO AUSTRALIA.
Sir, —According to reports it was announced at tho meeting of strikers held at Oriental Bay tlic other evening that two delegates from tho "Red Fed." ' were to bo sent ta Australia, one to Sydney and. the other io .Melbourne, to put the true position .before tho workers in thoso capitals, a:nd incidentally to beg for lmmqy. This announcementgives rise to a number of questions. Will put tlic delegates be obliged to travel by tile "scab" steamers of the. N ■Onion Company and eat tlio food prepared by "scab" labour? Tlicso delegates will cost the "Red Feds" at least :C2OO. and the question is: Can this money be spared when tho wives and children of tlio workers are practically starving, and many of them iylready existing on charity? Is it right of the community to furnish funds for relieving the necessities of tho families of strikers and allow tho leaders to divert money into fancy schemes? —I an). etc., ONE OF TlllC PUBLIC.
