IT must have been plain to most of our

from it's own weakness. The exception was
the last set Of letters, when the chain kept,ln
a certain sense, strong enough, or even too
strong but We found 1t to be dragging every

the vessel swung round on to the rocks.
One of our chief troubles in Santa I rue, no
doubt. is the smallness of the colony. Every
body knows everybody else and all his strong
no;nts and some, at least. Of his weak ones as
we'll. Consequently it is difficult to print
even a commonplace remark without raising a
suspicion that it has a personal reference. In
this connexion we are reminded OF a story
that we have read in one of the reading books
used in our schools. 1t is to the effect that
three little birds lived together ina nest, and
were very comfortable so long as they all kept

Union Pacific Telegraphers.

OMAHA, Neb., July 21.--The repre-
sentatives of the Order Of Railway Tele-
graphers, Of the Union Pacific system,
who for the past few days have been
having d luxurious time In Omaha, were
accorded an interview with Superin-
tendent Korty, of the Union Pacific. It
Is understood that since their coming
TO Omaha the schedule which
they proposed originally to submit
TO the powers that be has
has been materially changed, and that
there now Is good ground for believing
that many Of their requests will be
granted. II is well known that many
operators on the system are poorly paid,
but this fact may not have been called
TO the attention Of the superintendent
heretofore, so that 1t looks as IL the pres
ence OF the telegraphers in Omaha would
be sort Of enlightenment campaign.
