We regret that last week in describing the strike at

the Daily Mail we said that it was a strike of compositors. We owe the compositors an apology. The strikers were actually the union known as the Natsopas—the National Society of Operative Printers and Assistants. This union is composed of men who discharge the least responsible duties of a printing office and it has often been said that they would not have been formed into a trade union when they were but for the encouragement and liberality of Lord Northcliffe.
