Labor Conflict and the Last Days
A strike of the Corset Workers' Union has been in progress in Kalamazoo, Michigan, since March 1. The union had picketed the factory against which they had the grievance, and Judge F. E. Knappen issued an injunction forbidding it. The strikers and their sympathizers defied the injunction, and nine arrests have been made, and half a dozen others have been cited to appear before the court. Their trial was set for May 6, and on the day previous a mass-meeting was called that was largely attended. In this meeting Judge Knappen was very bitterly denounced for the course he was pursuing. This is only one of the many occurrences which show the bitter spirit that is growing so violent between the employing class and those who are employed. The prophecies of God's Word show that we have reached the last days, and these same prophecies tell of the "perilous times" that are just before us. The violence that we see breaking out all over the world will become stronger and stronger, and more and more bitter. Men are teaching and theorizing differently from this statement; but you watch the developments, and compare them with what God has predicted. We will soon see who is right, Jehovah or the speculative teachers among men
