The Resumption Of Work on the

dition of Alfhlro al Around.

Yesterday, work was resumed all aIon'

The company. is again in full possession O
the road AID there is every indication o
. prolonged pe,ce between the official
and employees. II h useless TO say that TIM
condition Of things is exceedingly crafty
ing to the people Of Sedalia. For
WEEK PAST
the town has i,sen In . state al suppressed
excitement and Ill concealed fears Of dis.
orde. similar to that which prevailed ia
other communities. That the strike ended
without Qualifying any Of these apPrehen.
sions, is an OCCASION for prevalent congratu-
lation. But outside Of any feeling Of M.
easine.s excited by the strike, there is uni.
versal thsnkfnlne~ that work has
been resumed on the road. 1t revives
business and gives vitnlizins influence to
the prolonged Iethargy which had settled
upon the industrial forces. 1t sends new
life along our great commercial avenues

ell the vital influence which lay dormant
when trade had ceased. Ii opened up
market to the farmers, the tradesmen. the
mechanic and laborer, and restores to their
normal condition all the industrial agencies

happy community. And it is . special
source Of congrstulation that the great NJ,
X. & T., which is 30 indispensable to the
prosperity of the Southwest has
been restored to ats proper direc-
tori, and will be in the future a. in the
Fast, the grand commercial medium through
which the products If the south will find a
speedy and profitable market. Considered
from . purely business st.nd point, the
strike upon this road has be, a of
IHcALcULABLE INJURY.
Its immediate and remote consequences
are not to be measured BY dollars and
cent?, since it has unsettled values and pro-
duced arrangement in trade which it will
take months to settle. 1t has intensified
the iears which great labor movements
always excite, and augmented the sensitive
ne~ With which capital and industry
always regard panic. In view Of these
facts, it behooves the people connected with
the NJ, K. & T. road to employ every en-
ergy they posses to recover the ground they
have lost, and to renew the popular con-
fdence which the strike has 20
SERIOUSLY PUT IN JEOPARDY.
1t Is fair to presume that the men who
these great social commissions
are not fully aware Of the damages they
occasion. Blind and unreasoning, they rush
headlong to the brink of \ precipice over
which yawns ruin and around it cling- des-
pair. They sport with elements that may
turn into . tornado which rises in DESC
lation and spreads destruction
ON EVERY SIDE.
The communities which sympathIse in
these outbreaks sympathise in that which
may turn them over bound hand and foot to
lswlesnes and riot, and give wind and
breath to the fame which consumes them.
Strikers are always lawless, and law lessness

despair. That Sehalia has escaped these

The demeanor Of our local strikers that
would occasion these approximations, for
they were remarkably discreet,

but, inssmuch "A they proved the excep.

hoped that society will never sgain be me-
naced BY perils 40 alarming, and that the
future has in store for the men of the NJ, K.

peace and happiness.
