Not an Unbiased Opinion.—

By Editor

A member of a trade union writes that the trade union makes men "better husbands, fathers, workmen, or citizens. In fact, a laboring man who does not belong to the organization which represents its labor, in my estimation is not a good citizen." Believing thus narrowly, how could a man be a proper judge? It matters not how patriotic a man might be, how generous, kind, neighborly, or skilful, he is not a good citizen. Why?—Because, forsooth! he does not belong to the "union." There is neither Christianity nor republicanism in such a belief.
