THE CONDUCTORS WANTS.
Their Conference With General MAJ

Their Conference With General Man
ager Gabbett To-Day.
The Central railroad conductors will have
a conference with General Manager Cab
bett to-day. IL was understood that the
grievance committee was to have conferred
with him yesterday, but nothing was done
about the matter.
The committee will tell the general man
ager that an equalization of wages is de-
slTable. They viii present Co him a list,
showing that some of the Centrals conduct
0rs get 500, while others get SIS and $50.
Ihey viii ask, it is understood, that the
general manager say what shall constitute
a days labor, and that they shall be re-
Enumerated for all the time that they are
employed over this time.
1t is understood that some conductors
are out as long as forty-eight hours on
8 me trips They will ask for a contract, as
the engineers and firemen have done. Gen
eral Manager Gabbett has dealt fairly with
the other employees and the conductors do
not apprehend any differences between them
and their chief executive.
MIR. Gabbett was admired very much by
his men on the roads that he left in coming
to the Central He said that he realized
that no road can prosper without the hearty
cooperation of all the employees, aud he has
always found that roads conducted upon
these principles were successful. He
believes in keeping his men
alive. This can not be done by giving
them more work than they can do Mr.
Gabbett has said in each of the cases where
employees have gone to him, tn at he viii fix
what shall be day and pay the men for
doing their work. If they work more hours
than what constitutes their day of labor,
he believes in paying them for it. 1t is
expected that the conference to-day will
be as friendly as the others have been.

D0hOrning,

Advocates of the dehorning of cattle
claim that it is not cruel practice, and
we have heard men boast how nicely
they have sawed off the horns of dumb
beasts, just as though 1t was an act wor'
thy of Boosting about. Isn't cruel, is it?
Read the following statement Of q. J,
Smith, of Cerro Gordo county, Iowa,
which we find in the last number of the
Prairie Farmer:
"Last fall dehorned a mixed lot of "a
head of COWS, heifers and steers from
one year old up. I hired this done by a
man who claimed to know all about it:
He operated with wide, stiff backed
saw, and they did not do nearly SO we'll

and became so weak, they had to be

man was in he thought one could not
live. The job was done the last of Oc-
tober or first of November, and we were
then milking 8 cows and making about
Is pounds of butter per week, besides
using considerable milk and cream.
Since they were dehorned we have not
made pound of butter, and hardly had
milk enough fog coffee"
Now don't tell us that if Mr.. Smith
had had his cattle properly dehorned
1t would not have been cruel. All the
difference is, if done scientifically" the
cruelty is little more refined than when
roughly done-but it hurts all the same,
and is barbarous and unnecessary prac'
tice. We are down on dehorning-we

senastimes bestowed on unworthy OBJ

its voice only to that which has real
merit. To the politician popular ap-

manufacturer 1t means success and

Civil Service Reform.

LaSalle Ill) Republican: The
'"original civil service reformer" is
produced in the person Of Judge Nc
Lean, of Ohio, who has long since
been dead, but whose fame survives
him, 1t Is frigId weather when Ohio
does not claim originality for any
thing that is talked about. Judge
Mclean, who was postmaster general
under JohnQuincy Adams, was favor
able to the election of Andrew jack
son, and when "Old Hickory" reached
the White House lie was DESTROYS OF
retaining the services of Mclean.
But the policy under the Jackson
administration was "to the Yictors
belong the spoils," and according to
it the official heads of non-partisan
experts in office were chopped offwith'
out mercy. Postmastars who did not
have clean Jackson records were
bounced in hurry. Postmaster
General Mclean waited upon the
President and frankly informed him
that if opposition postmasters were tc
be dismissed for meddllng in politics
he (McLean) would apply the rule
strictly to Democratic postmasters Of
we'll. "Old Hickory" smoked his
pipe while in silence. Then hi
asked Mclean if he would accept {
seat on the supreme court bench
Mclean promptly replied that ht
would, and an obstruction to the
victory and spoils policy was removed
Judge Mclean was evidently the
same kind Of civil service reformer al
