A Man Who DIDN'T Strike.

Interview in Chicago Tribune.
Did you ever have personal experience OF
a strike?"
80, yes. l was tempted by strike at -,
way back in the old times. | was an opera
tor then. L thought the matter over care
fully, and had it out with my wife private
ly, and we--that is my wife and I-con-
cluded that it was bad mess. l had no
grievances, and L wasn't under obligations to
put my head in the lions jaws merely to
oblige other people who thought they had
been wronged. | staid in and took the
press report l was one of three men who
didn't desert, and the only one capable of
taking the press report The company never
forgot me for that piece OF work. ! was pro-
NOTED as soon as the strike was over, and l
have been i'll course of promotion ever since
until-well, you know. modesty forbidsW
Then the company keeps SEQ re on its ope-
rators whenever there is strike and dis
tributes rewards afterwards"
Precisely. You will hear officials con-
stantly speak of loyal and 'disloyal' men.
The loyal men are those who never have
been engaged in a strike Their names are
all known and on record. When the conf
pany wants good man for particular serv-
ice or for any kind of promotion, you will
find the selection is made from among the
loyalists.' An operator who goes out on
an unreasonable strike, as l think this must
be regarded, sacrifices his reputation as a
faithful servant OF the company. This repu-
tation is acquired as the result of years of
faithful toll. 1t ought to have some pecuni-
ary value to a man. [ know ] would not
sacrifice my good-service marks, if [ had

Both Sides.
Collated from Chicago Papers.
An official of the Western Union said yes
terday; ANY statement we make regarding
salaries and hours of service can be substan-
TAINTED by figures. The operators would
make better case If they would produce
few to make good their assertions They
cannot deny that a man will now have to
work but four hours overtime in the twenty
four hours to make an income of $134 ner
month on a regular salary of $780, The
shortening of hours virtually increases sala-
ries about 10 per cent. per month. and in
comparison with bank clerks and other
young men in like positions operators are
well pad.''

corroborated the above figures from his pay

You must 20 back to the Act Of
1874, chapter 181. to End practical
remedy for the evil. that i If any
legislation can aid in replenishing the
wasted and destroyed beda. Illegal
dredging was deemed misdemeanor
under this act. and npon indictment
and conviction the offender was SEN
fenced to jail OF 10 the penitsntiary
for term not exceeding two years,
or fine. in the discretion OF the court.
When dredge-boat owners and
dredgers are made to realize that It
Is as great an offsnse and IS sure 9
punishment to steal oysters from the
State as it is TO steal them out Of your
packing-houses, the difficulty, so far
as illegal dredging is concerned, will
resolve itself, and in my Judgment
not until then. The continued en-
forcement Of the Act Of 1874 would
have broken up illegal dredging.
But Its enforcement was found to
greatly lessen the supply Of oysters
carried to Baltimore. and the oyster
interests OF Baltimore not only antag-
onized the law, but demanded its re-
peal. Like the silversmiths of Ephe-
sus, whose trade was menaced BY the
preaching of St. Paul, they found it
convenient enough to get mp a hue
and cry in favor of their goddess. It
Is to be hoped that they are no lon
ger deaf to the voice Of reason.
The tongmen are undoubtedly in
terested in the preservation of their
oyster beds, and az body would
gladly aid in enforcing any law CIV
ing protection. but they feel that
there has been no well-intentioned
effort for protection since the Act of
1874. The consequences Is that smart
ing under wrongs they have become
demoralized and deaf to their best
interests, and not unfrequently are
to be found taking oysters in the milk
and spawn state, with the feeling,
that if they were to leave the scat
tered oysters undisturbed, it would
only be done for the inevitable dredge
which is sure to come.
The objects your committee have
in view are certainly commendable,
and it is to DO hoped that your efforts
will result in replenishing the waters
of the State, and in protecting more
eFectually for the future the beds
and bars than in the past. AS for
myself | can but poiut to the Act of
1874 for a remedy to build upon.
The penalties should be made even
more severe. There will hardly be
any remonstrance from the trade, now
that the oysters are all gone. The
influence of your vast interests, which
is new threatened and in danger of
humiliation, if exerted in harmony
with that of the oyster counties, will
certainly prove potential, and result
in securing and enforcing practical
legislation.
