LABOUR VIEWS.
MR. IvEIR HAKDIE ON THE NEST BIG STRIKE. London, August 20. Mr. ICeir Hardie, M.P., in a speech ot Mcrthyr on Saturday, said there Would bo no settlement until the unions were recognised. The stoppage of work had been due to Mr. Asquith's threats, but when the next big strike occurred the colliers and ironworkers would be called out, and then they would see what the soldiers could do. He counselled the men to abide loyally by whatever decision was reached. Mr. G. N. Barnes, M.P. for the Blackfriars division of Glasgow, speaking at Dowlais, in Wales, said tho only solution of the Labour trouble was to destroy the damnable capitalism. However, tho great railway dispute, he declared, was only a feature of tho Labour unrest, which was spreading throughout tho length and breadth of tho country. While he did not object to conciliation to settle temporary difficulties, no broad solution would be possible until tho workers won for themselves the whole produce of their labour.
