" SUP AHO REASON TOGETHER ’’ [Bv Ova J'a k lia .m c.n tak v llefobteb.] \VELLi XGTOX. Nlivcmber 2d. The Minister of Labor (Mr Andersmi) found a subject lor mirtlilnl satisiacfcion over the joint action of the New /'calami Alliance of Labor and the I Employers’ Federation in protesting against, (be amendment of the Arbitration Act. Moving its committal in tbo llcu.se to-night, ho suggested that tho introduction of so controversial a measure was absolutely justified, it lor no other reason than that tbo representatives of Capital and Labor got into the same camp, and supped and reasoned together in a mannei which had never been equalled in the country's history. Mr ’Howard: Are you sorry? Mr Anderson: If i have done nothing but bring those august bodies together, then tbo production of this Bill is justified. Anyone reading tho moving speeches of the Alliance or Labor”and the Employers’ Federation 1 ulion they met the other day must have left ” pleased at this rapprochement. It is duo to one of two things—- ; cither the good effect produced by this 1 Bill, or their former battles have been | sham fights.
