THE STHlKE ON TIE ERIE RAILWAY.
Ontragcs Committed by Dissatisfied Brake
men.
lrrom Inc Bnfralo oonrier Dec. lol

from the Buffalo Courier, Dec. 1917
Friday evening about two hundred brakemen en-
poycd on the Susquchanna and Western Divisions
of the Erie Railway struck, In consequence OF the
reduction of their wages from s2 TO 81 rs per day.
The company advertised for men to I'LL their places
and within short time, on Saturday, they had no
fewer than 600 applications at the Office In this
city. Fifty of these men were sent to Hornellsville
Saturday, where the strikers are centred, but about
thirty OF them returned yesterday. The IN
dgnant brakemen, since tho strike, have 1n-
dulged in the playful pastime OF greasing the
tracks, uncoupng the cars OF the freight trains and
throwing such other distinctions In the way OF the
business OF the road as they could devise although
In no way interfering with the passenger trains.
Yesterday the Hornellsvie militia were called ont
to protect the newly installed braSemen against ex
pected violence, but al last accounts the military
had been furnished with opportunity for display
OF their prowess. The company ore determined TO
bring the strikers to terms or 10 dispense with their
services altogether, while, pen contra, the strikers
seem determined to hold out to the bitter end. The
fever has not communicated to the men on the
other divisions, and the inen NJ Hornellsvie neces-
sary offer but feeble resistance 10 the force bearing
down anon them.

PIONEER HUMANITARIAN ASSOCIATION.

The Pioneer Humanitarian Association, which
has established its headquarters at No Broadway is
organization for colOnizng in Colorado. 1.-THE Private
Rules and Regulations" OF which portion yester
day published, like socalistic scheme, and the
practical financial plans adopted by the Association does
tend the disrust Of the whole affair which
the Private Rules inspire.
The scheme is alluring one to ignorant mind.
Men to be taken into the Association who have
capital whatsoever and each member Ia to be furnished
with $500 Of borrowed capital. The question at once
arises Where il the $500 to 'front.' "Capitalsts"
the inquirer is told, will lend this money to be paid in
five years with 100 per cent interest," in ten years with
per cent interest. But capitalists will not lend this
enormous Of 100000 without security. The land
will be the security IL the But the homestead
lands do not belong to the settlers till after five years OF
residence, and are OF use security Half Of tho
lands will be prompted, and those will be the security
for the money Are these capitalists ready IL Is quered,
To furnish money to buy the pretmpted land The Gov
ernment you are aware requires cash before deed
is given. Nobody, it il answered gives money without
security The capitalists will not give the money until
they get the land for security.
The situation, then Ia this 1000 members will receive
$500 each making $4,000 in ALL OF this sum, $1,000
OF preGmpted land will be bought at 81 per acre,
costing 10000 which will be security for the whole
loan OF 100000 and will be improved 10 such extent
by the residents that they will be worth 100000 Only
two difficulties then, remain in the scheme One is to
buy 5000 Of land at dollar and quarter acre,
without having any money to do with and then when
that has been DONE to find capitalist who is eager
to lend 100000 the security Of these lands which
worth 100000.
