of its superior ventilation tho food placed

In New York celebrated Christmas by
sending its employees to cut the
wires OF rival line. Acting I'M
der the Instructions Of their su.
perIors these employees cut six miles of
the line aud carried OFF several wagon
loads Of wire. AS the offense was com
mitted on Christmas no legal steps could
be taken, It seems, to stop the perpetra-
tors and they have not yet been punished,
Such conduct as this is the provoeatlon
aud excuse for many lawless acts Of
strikers and boycotters When exaspor-
ated men see the law set aside by corpor.
atlons and the rights Of others ignored, they
are apt to imagine that they have the same
latitude Of lawless action. II goes long
way to mitigate opposition to violence in
strikes when men remember that the
class against which the strike is directed
are as careless as anybody in observing
the law when their interests are opposed
to II. We all remember the difficulties
put in the way OF the Baltimore 6 Ohio

officials when the former began extending
