press any opinion, but think arbitration
ought to be tried. Business is in bad
way.
Hermann & Co., hops and corks, 313
Sacramento-We would like to see the
men win. The railroad oppresses and the
men are right in obj-cting.
r. w. Simpson & Co., brushes, 315 Sac
rsmento-We rather favor the strikers.
though we are deadly opposed to breaches
OF trust or violation of law.
Lake q Co., wooden ware, All Sacra-
mento - SympatheIically speaking we
would like to have the strikers win. We
cannot understand why the mail and regu-
lar trains cannot be transported without
the Pullman being attached. The fruit
men are suffering dreadfully and we would
like to see the whole matter settled some
how.
George II. Croley. poultry and seeds. AT
Sacramento-Have given no attention to
to the matter-do not know the details of
the strike as yet. Am not prepared to ex-
press any opinion either way; rather in
clined to blame both sides. The strikes
have made bad move and the railroad is
stubborn.
Western Roll ana Paper Co., 421 Sacra-
mento-Our president is stalled between
Ogden and Sacramento and we have no
opinion to express now.
Louis Cahen & Co., wholesale liquors,
41S Sacramento-We have large number
of cars of perishable goods on the way,
upon which we shall probably suffer loss.
We do not believe the strikers have done
right in everything. The malls ought TO
be forwarded as usual. The Pullmans can
be dispensed with. We are against law
Iessness, and it ought to be put down.
Scully 81 Son, wholesale liquors, 421 Sac
ramento-We are sorry tor the strike. SC
demoraliZing to business. We hope it will
soon be settled.
Blake. Mofitt & Co.. wholesale paper,
516 Sacramento-We haven't quite made
up our minds as to the merits of the strike
as yet.
Carpy & Co., wines, 511 Sacramento
We have nothing to say about the matter
except that business Is demorallZed.
Getz Bros. & Co., wholesale grOcers, lie
California-We cannot ship goods. and out
of town business is at standstill. Have
no particular sympathy with either side.
We await developments.
S. B. Leavitt & Co.. paper. 800 Sacra-
mento-We prefer not to express our
views.
Neville & Co., bags and tents, 33 Cali
fornia-Business greatly inconvenienced.
We sympathiZe with both sides.
Smedberg & Mitchell. insurance, 314 Cal
ifornia-This is the biggest issue that this
country has been forced to meet since 1861.
Organized labor has been preparing for
this strike for over year. and 1t Is likely
that the railroads have been anticipating g
1t for quite as long. The Pullman matter
is simply a pretext for strike between
la Dor and capital. The leaders of these
labor organizations must show something z
done in order that the workmen may thin K
they are earning their salaries. Without
capital where is labor? Every sensible
man sympathiZes with The law. Property
has rights and the Government will pro-
tect it.
Norton. Teller & Co., provisions. 81 and
90 California-We are non-committal.
S. Foster & Co., wholesale grocers, "a
CaIifornia-Business too urgent. We have
no views to express to-day.
Mitchell s. Petersen. wholesale provi-
sions. 80 California-Breaking the laws is
greatly to be regretted. The Pullman bus
mess is bad.
G. w. McNear, grain, BOG California
The strike is an outrage on the public. We
are for law and order.
George Marcus & Co., insurance. 232
California-We are for law and order first,
last and for all time.
Field & Stone, dried fruits. 126 Califor.
nia-We decline to express an opinion on
the subject.
Crown Mills, 112 CalifornIa-Bad for the
country and the orchardists in particular
S. Koshl & Co., wool and grain. 422 Cali
fornia-The stand taken by the railroad is
correct
Sperry & Co., millers-Don't care to ex-
press an opinion. We do not understand
the question yet.
Wilmerding & Co.. liquor dealers, 21f
California-The strike is bad thing for
the country and ought to be put down.
Why cannot the trouble be ar rbitratedo
Dalton, Partridge & Co., stationers, 212
California-Things are out of joint and a
bad state of affairs exists. The riddle is
