YOU CANNOT BE TOO CAREFUL
Labor will have to be on its guard against a large number of its professed friends. If these manage to convince the general public, as they seem bent on doing, that when Labor is printed with a capial inital it stands for those ‘‘who love every country but their own,” the general public may retaliate by ignoring or opposing the .more legitimate efforts oi those who jive by .labor to remove admitted anomalies in the social scheme. The fund-amental-''requirement m every State needing domestic reform is that tile integrity of the State itself shall be insnre.ci Universal history teaches that the weak and the careless among commodities go to the wall. Their fate is absorption of servitude. We may all dpcdorc war, just as we deplore the most omnipresent existence of disease germs, but .as in the one case we are called upon to be. careful about our drains, and to do our best to alleviate the sufferings ?.nd lengthen the lives of those in whose bodies disease, germs unhappily find lodgment, so in the other rational means of defence have to be iv.(opted.—‘‘Daily Telegraph.’ ’
