The New York Herald'a Views of the
Threatened Strike.

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE Herald edi-
torially says OF the threatened strike of the
Brotherhood of Tclegraphers that although
their petition is couched In respectfulterms,
It leaves the impression Of asking too much.
II requests that days work be made eight
instead Of nine houn, and 4 nights work
seven instead Of eight hours, reduction OF
one-ninth in one case and one eighth IN the
other. At the same time 1t wants all wages
increased fifteen per cent, irrespective OF
age, skill or the position Of the operator,
besides extra compensation for Sunday
work. The real effect Of these demands
will be best illustrated by an example. A
day operator receives say $40 per month;
or counting nine hours TO day and six
days to week, about thirty-iye cents per
hour. Under the promised rate the month.
ly wages will be $50 Is. Day work will
bs eight hours during six days
Of the week, or about forty-nve
cents per hour, an actual increase OF more
than twenty seven per cent. In regard to
the Wheatstone operators an increase Of
sixty five per cent. 10 demanded for them.
On the whole It may be doubted whether
the operators have presented a strong
case. The evils exist cannot be ques-
toned, but they will not be remedied by
the course taken.
The Executive committee OF the Western
Union Telegraph company will meet to-
morrow, and the petition Of the operators
will then be brought to their consideration,
One OF the officers Of the company said
that II was impossible to say what action
would be taken. The general opinion was
that the demand was excessive end I'M
reasonable. No ac1son has yet been
taken by the Mutual Union, the American,
the Rapid or the Baltimore and Ohio com.

TRUTHS

The blood is the foundation Oh
life, it circulates through every pan
Of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the only sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enich the
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to lis
natural condition; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
Browns IRON BITTERs will thor
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
any part Of the system, and it will
net blacken the teeth, cause head
ache or constipation, and is posi-
lively nat injurious.
