A silly Story

rhe public has not heard, for so long
tine, OF the Chicago, Burlington y
Quincy strike, that it was probably
thousht to be over and in truth 1t has
often been 30 stated to be from railroad
sources Of information. The late under.
taking OF the railroad officials to indict
prominent officers of the Brotherhood OF
Engineers for conspiracy to injure the
road, uncovers the fact that the strike is
still on and 1t lends color TO the suspi.
Cion that the railroad people at least are
getting desperate over the situation,
though they would have us believe that
the engineers are 80, and that they have
undertaken to blow up the railroad with
dynamite. This is very fshy story In.
deed, and we shall be surprised IL ~
finally appears that any officer of the
Brotherhood Of Eogineers has been a
party to any such plot. 1t looks as
though the officers of the company are
victims of tale Of horror, concocted by
worthless witnesses, to bleed money out
Of them for we do not like to think that
they themselves are conspirators in n
silly attempt to discredit the Brother
hood officers by manufactured story.
It is not at all probable that high ofli.
Ger of 90 reputable an association as the
Brotherhood of Engineers has been a
party TO q dynamite plot against the
railroad, and we dismiss II as unworthy
Of belief upon its face.
We note that the company and the
Brotherhood officers are In conference,
under the mutual admission that the
strike ought to cease. With this frame
OF mind, 1t ought to be easy to bring 1t to
m end. 1t has been q very costly affair
TO the company, If the enormous decrease
In its receipts is attributable to this cause,
- presumably it is. 1t was one Of the
most unnecessary strikes that has ever
been known, and came about through
the undue arrogance Of the railroad
managers In treating the demand of their
employees. This is q common falling OF
railroad managers, naturally prompted
BY their position of power and cultivated
by their general success In kicking any.

way. When occasionally they kick some

how to treat 1t. The Quincy's manager

THERE Is said to be some fear In peach /.

1t is stated that tho crop this year will be at
least 10 0O0. COO baskets, which In double
the crop pi 1876 the biggest on record. Or o
cause foI the unprecedented crop OF 1888 Is
that large numbers OF young orchards are
maturing, and will bear their flrst crop this
season, and tho other Is that the present
year Is remarkably good one for the de-
