THE 80" STRIKE.

There Is no doubt that Chief Arthur can,
II he wishes, bring to stop the traffic on
every railroad in the United States. No
man in America holds in his grasp as much
power az he, not excepting the President
Of the United States. II letters could not
be mailed, or freight carried, or people
transported, the suffering that would
ensue Ii beyond the reach Of
imagination. The Government It.
sell would DO paralyzcd in such an
emergency. Never before in the history
Of the country has there been presented so
sharply the question as to the rights OF the
people in case Of u cessation by chartered
corporations Of public service because Of
trouble between these corporations and
their employees. The solution OF this
problem appeals TO the profoundcst con-
sideration Of the wisest craftsmanship. No
one can dispute the right OF men 10
quit work when dissatisfied, nor should a
corporation be forced 30 do business ut a
loss. At tho same time, when the peo-
pie grant charters they have the right to
insist that the obligations Of service shall
be fulfilled. II grows moro and more mp
parent that there should be established
such high commissions OF adjudication MS
will reconcile these differences be-
tween employees and corporations when
such corporations have public duties to
perform. Unless some means can be dis
covered to obviatc these ombarrassments
TO the public service those who favor gov
ernmental control OF tho railroads will
find in them strong argument in be-
half Of their proposition. The wrongs
OF which tho striking locomotive en-
gincos complain should be rem
cdiod without interference with the
operation Of tho general business Of the
country. Civilization demands that much.
The remedy should be Of such nature as
would work no oppression upon either en-
ployc or employer. Upon the finding Of
such remedy the orderly and rapid develop
ment Of tho country depends. 1t is for legis-
lators TO address themselves earnestly, hon
estly and coumgeously 10 the solution
Of this problem. and the day II shall be
solved will mark an epoch in history. The
rights Of employees relative to the rights Of
employers have been discussed by theo-
ris,s from many standpoints, but the con-
flict has grown ha-sher and hanhcr. II Is
the most important question OF
the age, and the great railroad
strike which Is now assuming NO
porten,ous q character emphasizes
IA no other strike has ever done. the ne
ccssity Of remedial measures and such
equitable adjustment Of conditions rs will
put capital and labor into harmonious re-
lations.
