WHY THE UNION IS DISSATISFIED.

The dissatisfaction of the members of the ion in connection with the determination to bindle the goal is that the South Coast' mipers will be affected by the proposal. Contracts for the supply of the P. and O. boats are held by the South Coast collieries, and the very fact of Japanese supplies being received is, in the opinion of the members of the valon, bitting back at a large body of men who came out to assist the northerners in a time of trouble. It

is believed that any inclination there may have bed on the part of the South Coast men to re sum Wark will be removed by the step taken by congress
