l and few are entirely free. Its cause
is indigestion and sluggish liver, the
cure for which is readily found in the
use of Ayers Pills.

liable remedy. samuel @. Bradburn,

Trouble in Store for Europe.

BERLIN, April 23.-The Emperor.
who for some months past has been en-
deavoring to see what effect liberation and
kindness would have on the Socialists
agitators, has now determined on an op-
posite course regarding the proposed lst of
May demonstrations. Halls that had al
ready been rented by labor organizations
will be closed on May day: all liquor sa-
looms will be- compelled to close their
doors and strong guards will be at the en-
frances. Street gatherings are forbidden
and those disobeying orders will be in
stantly placed under arrest
In fact Berlin will be declared in state
of siege for one day, as bloodshed is appre-
hcndcd by the authorities.
VIENNA, April 23.-Therc is high palace
authority for stating that the army pro
poses to take q hand in the lst of May dc
monstration. Great dissatisfaction is ex-
isting in the ranks with regard to pay. 1t
is further stated that officers are in full
sympathy with the workingmen, and If the
rank and file are not appeased by increased
remuneration there is danger that on the
lst of May the army will fraternizc with
the Socialists instead OF firing on them.
In view of this state of things great pre-
parations have been taken by the author
ities.

WAGES OF RAILWAY EMPLOYEES.
Report of Carroll D. Wright, Com.
missioner of Labor, on the
Subject.

WASHINGTON. d. C. April 21.-Car-
roll d. Wright, the commissioner of labor.
has submitted to the President for trans
mission TO Congress his fifth annual re-
port The single subject treated is rail-
road labor. The report shows that on
June 80. 1889, the whole number Of railroad
corporations in the United States was ap
proximately LIS, and the mileage of these
roads approximately, 156,4oO miles. The
number of employees on ali the railroads
Of the country on that date was 6s9,9l2.
Upon investigating the subject Of the
relations Of employees and corporations as
TO six hundred roads, by which the real
railroad business of the country is per-
formed, it was found that nineteen roads
maintain beneficiary institutions and a
few pay hospital expenses while men in
jured in the service are being treated. A
very few pay taxes for the support of State
and county institutions. Three or four con-
tribute TO relief funds, and several furnish
club houses for certain classes of employees
Six companies assert that they pension
their superanuated employees and also their
permanently disabled people. A few give
superannuated employees light work or al
low half-time pay, while a number make
settlements upon the permanently dis
abled. Two hundred and sixty-six COM
panies retain in their service permanently
the rolls at the close of the year 1855 being
3,l2l.
As to wages, it is found that over 70 per
cent are paid at rates ranging from 81 to
& day. The average daily rate of all the
employees paid by specific time on sixty
roads is $l.64, yet 81 per cent of the whole
number received less than the average
rate of all, where only about 80 per cent.
received above the average for all. 1t is
employees 10l, sos earn less than s1ot
year, 33,6al earn from SOL to 500 q
year, and 2l,5l1 earn from Sol tc
500 year. The average earnings on al
the sixty roads year is s2i3. although less
than sixty per cent earn less than this
average.
A comparative table is given as to the
wages paid railroad men in this country
and in Great Britain. The British rates
arc taken from the oficial returns OF
wages paid to railway servants on the
principal lines in Great Britain by the
Amalgamated Society of Railway Ser

THE INTER MOUNTAIN R. R. BUSINESS

THE INTER MOUNTAIN R. R. BUSINESS,
The fact that the Union Pacific North
western railway alliance is pushing an
extension southwest from Salt Lake to
tap the Southern Pacific at Mojave, seems
to be largely responsible for the deal
whereby the Santa Fe secures control of
the Colorado Midland, and, taking this
view OF it, the Rio Grande Western is I'M
questionably in the deal, for the Santa Fe
must get into Salt Lake in order to &C.
complish its evident object of forcing the
Union Pacific to a division of central
western business, in order at the same time
to be able thus to hold its own against
the Southern Pacific for California traffic.
1t is said that Jay Gould and the bankers
triangle, the latter being the real owners
of the Santa Fe, have gone into an al
lance against the Union Pacific-North-
western combination which has the back
ing of the Vanderbilts, and very pretty
little row is on between the northwest
lines and the southwest lines over inter-
mountain and Pacific coast traffic. At
any rate it shows that at last the inter-
mountain business of the west is becom-
ing of sufficient importance to be con-
tested for in earnest.

The entire expense of the territory for
the three months ending September 4,
1890, were $29, O57.3S. During the Ross
Doodle administration when Democratic
judges, clerks and district attorneys rob-
bed this territory most numerically,
when the penitentiary was being dishon-
est and badly conducted and when the
Democratic territorial officials thought of
nothing else, but stealing from the treas
ury under the form Of law, the expenses
of the courts alone for any three months
exceeded the entire amount of the total ex-
penditures for the three months above
given. That is what Republican legis
lature and Republican administration
has done for the people and tax payers Of
New Mexico. 1t strikes us as being most
excellent work and it will so strike the
good citizens and tax payers of New Mex
leo, regardless of party utilization.

state of New Mexico, and insist that ample
means shall be produced by taxation for
their support for period of not less than
six months in the year, and we further
favor the comforting upon the voters of
each school district the right to impose
additional taxes for such district for such
purposes, and we urge the election OF
members to the legislature who will favor
such measures.
We denounce and condemn in the most
unqualified terms the slanderous charge
of the Democracy that the native people
of this territory are mentally and morally
disqualified for self government; on which
ground that party bases Its chief objection
to the constitution.
We favor the protection Of laborers and
employees and the adoption of proper laws
securing to them liens for their services
and also establishing suitable courts of
arbitration for the settlement of differ
ences between employees and employers.
Resolved, That we recommend and
adopt as designating device, to be print
ed on the face and at the head OF the
ticket or ballot of the Republican party
to be voted at the various polling places
in this territory at the general election, to
be held on the first Tuesday of November
next, the American flag and that we re-
gard the action of the territorial Demo-
cratic convention, recently held at Silver
City, in specially refusing to adopt the
same emblem, as characteristic of the
history of the Democratic party ever since
1860.
