THE STRIKE.
Notwithstanding" the professed, solidarity among the strikers of Auckland and Wellington," there is abundant evidence that the industrial struggle will "fizzle out in the course of a few days, or so soon as those in employment become tired of supporting the army of misguided individuals who prefer idleness to honest labour. There can now be no possible doubt as to the result of the strike. Every attempt to block the means of transport and; paralyse industry lias been rendered and all the solidarity in the world cannot do more than give the strikers an extended holiday at the expense of their fellows, and then leave thjem lamenting. The whole strength of the country is against the Federation of Labour and its revolutionary propaganda, and it is now too late to talk of compromise or conciliation. The Federation is on its last legs, and it will crumble away before the force of an outraged public opinion.'
