Rural Workers' Union.—An organising meeting was held at the Schoolroom on Monday, the 8th inst., when Mr S Box, of King's Thorne. near Hereford, gave an address on behalf of the Rural Workers' Union. Mr Box, who is the local Union organiser, pointed out that unorganised the workers had no control over their working conditions, that the present rates of wages could uot-have been obtained without the Unions, that the security of their conditions lay solely in the strength of the trade unions, and that the districts where the best wages and best conditions obtained were those where the workers were best organised.
