to g request that he give his views con
eerniDg the labor troubles in the South
west, he said: II think that so far at the
strike is concerned, public sentiment is de-
msndipg that commerce should move.
Railroads not only represent private inter
ests, they represent public interest as well.
The great interests of the country demand
that our railroad traffic be not disturbed
and that sentiment is growing stronger
each day. Railroad magnstes and rail
road lAborers must recognize this and obey.
/ do not know about the traffic on the
roads, except that it is growing daily. l
believe that the civil authorities should be
used as far as possible in the settlement OF
these matters. This is government OF
the people, and we should use the bsyonet
only when absolutely necessary. l think
the matter is settling down, and that soon
the trouble will be over.
