ONE CLASS THAT PATS.
THE THRIFTY WORKING MEN. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) Auckland, December 9. Speaking at the- annual meeting of tlio Stock Exchange, Mr. G. A. Buttle, tlio chairman, commenting on the strike, said lie had noticed that the results of such disturbances fell most heavily on tho industrial concerns carrying tlio savings of persons of small means, thrifty working men. and members of tlio artisan class. Tho leaders of the labour unions, in their anxiety to punish a "common enemy"—tlio employer—lost sight of tho fact that in this respect, as in other ways,.they inflicted greater punishmont on their own class than on tlio employer. It was necessary for tho future of the country to have large prosporous manufacturing concerns in the Dominion, but how could they expect such concerns to succeed unless labour was willing to combine with capital to make them successful?
