where he will remove his family as soon
as they can dispose of their property in
this village. The death of the farter of

Col. William A. II. StilloWaye is go

Col. Sillowaye served four years and
eight months in the army and navy dur
ing the war, and from April 1861, to
February, 1868, he served his country
without pay OF reward of any kind.
He knew all the Uhion generals and
Secretary Stanton and Welles. He was
Northumberland ON Gen. Mcclellan S
staff in 1862. Col. Sillowaye is practl-
cal printer, engineer and llngulst. He
has set UP works in Greek, French, Span
ish, Latin and Hebrew. He was en-
ployed during five years at Oxford, Eng,
on Homan's Greek bible, and there, in
1859, the degree of l. l.. ID. was conferred
upon him. His first wife was daugh-

Sir Richard Houghton. His present
wife is a relative of Hon. William NJ.

Col. Sillowaye is a very modest man,

THE RIGHT TO STOP WORK.

The action of Judge Kicks of the
United States District Court in declaring
that railway employs have no right to
stop work without giving preliminary
notice of their intention raises a legal
issue of the greatest Importance. This
action was taken in consequence of the
Ann ArbOr strike inspired by the Broth
erhOOd of Locomotive Engineers. Judge
Kicks has not only enjoined the Brother
hood from ordering a general strike, but
he has enjoined engineers against quit
ting work individually, without notice,
and he has held IN 500 bonds to answer
to a misdemea or several engineers and
firemen who have left their posts.
1t is not claimed these men had violat-
ed any contract. The attitude of the
court was based on the ground that they
had no right, by leaving their positions
without reasonable notice, to cripple the
efficiency of a corporation which was a
public carrier. The case acquires addi-
tional prominence from the fact that the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers is
recognized as one of the most conserva-
tive labor organizations in existence. 1t
has an honorable record as union whose
principles forbid it to order strike until
every source of reconciliation has been
exhausted.
If the decision of Judge Kicks is to
stand, and the railwayIemployes are to be
debarred from quitting work without
notice, it is manifest that the same prin-
ciple must in equity be extended to the
railway companies themselves. Public
opinion win demand that the employees

A NATIONAL UNIVERSITY.

There is no good reason why the plan
which, to certain extent, originated
with Senator Edmunds of Vermont sew
eral years ago, of great national univer-
sity at Washington should not be worked
out to fulfllment in the immediate flu
ture. The select Senate committees
of the last Congress gave the plan It's ap-
proval, and accompanied its favorable
report with bill which it is to be re-
GREETED did not receive more favorable
consideration. The bill as reported by
this committee appropriates one-half of
the money received from the sale of
public lands to establish and maintain a
university of the highest type resting
upon the State universities, colleges,
academies and high schools. Degrees are
to be conferred upon none but those who
have already obtained them from some
other institution. There are to be free
scholarships for certain number of stu
dents from each congressional district,
and endowed fellowships open to per-
sons of genius from any part of the
world.
