ELECTION or SENATOR.

Some disgusted Democrats soy that
United States Senators should be elected
by the people That would be quite an
idea. The Senator elected would only
have to put ont a little more money. In
stead oi paying the leaders and the As
semblymon ne wodld only have TO pay the
people who sell out.
OF course it would cost more, but what
is bat 10 q man who wants a bauble and
who can pay for it2
We suggest a better plan for this state.
Let DIR. Garvln amend the constitution
with proviso that the Chairmen OF the
two party committees put the thing up
for auction in public and knock it down
to the highest bidder. This would have
at least the credit of honesty. Then the
money should be put into the school fund
so as 20 instruct the rising generation
how 10 do IL themselves when they grow
up. 1t would be a good way TO bring
them up and besides It would save cam
paigu speeches and the wear and tear, etc.

THE ARMIES"

From Boston yesterday there started for
Washington another "army." This brsi
ness has now gone far enough TO be called
either ludicrously alarming or alarming
ly ludicrous. One report OF the scene in
Boston yesterday says: "rhe Socialists,
Anarchists, tramps, scamps and cranks
were In high feather. They swarmed the
streets and they packed the Common by
the thousands. They discussed labor
questions, and they wheedled each other
into thinking that the only way TO save
this republic from sure ruin was to march
countless hordes OF unemployed working
men into the United States capital and
demand bread and worg OF Congress"
The Boston contingent may be COM
posed OF a somewhat better class OF people
than the marching "armies" OF the West

FOR a FEDERATION.
Delegates q Railroad Protective 0rganiza-
tions Met al Bridgeport

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, April % 49, Three
hundred OF the employees Of the Consoli-
dated Railroad company met here yester-
day for the purpose Of discussing the ad-
visibility Of forming a federation to be
made up OF the six labor organizations
into which the employees are divided.
The meeting was purely in the Interests
Of employees Of the Consolidated, although
there were quite number OF guests from
lodges in other parts Of the country.
The organizations represented were the
brotherhood Of Locomotive Engineers,
the Order of Railway Conductors, Order
of Railroad Trainmen, brotherhood of
Locomotive Firemen, Order Of Railroad
Tslearapbers and Swisshmen's Mutual
Aid association. The question OF form
ing system Of federation WAS fully dis
cussed, and a big majority were In favor
OF the proposition. A committee made
mp Of one member from each or the or
ganizations was appointed TO visit every
lodge throughout the system and report
at further meeting.
AT o'clock in the afternoon public
meeting was held In the Grand Opera
house. Z. A. wilkins Of Chicago, as
sistant grand chief conductor OF the Order
OF Railway Conductors. said that the
meeting did not necessarily mean that
the men were planning n disturbance. As
q matter of fact, ths relations between the
Consolidated and their employees were
entirely pleasant, and nothing was more
remote than the prospect Of trouble be-
tween them. The meeting was simply
for the purpose OF becoming acquainted
with each other and ascertaining whether
or not IL was the general opinion that a
system Of federation would best cement
the present cordial relations between en-
ployers and employed, and promote the
best interests Of all concerned.
Rev. DIR. Pullman told the men that
the time WAS coming when there would
be no such thing as strikes. but employers
and employees would be organized into
common brotherhood.
+. H Morrissey OF Galesburg, Ills, first
vice president Of the Order OF Railroad
Trainmen, touched on the question OF the
relations between the church and the
organizations, and said that II was the
duty Of the latter TO be closely In touch
with the church. The organizations
themselves would much prefer TO hold
their meetings on week days, but owing TO
the nature OF their employment Sunday
was the only day on which they could
meet The organizations took pride In
the fact that no infdel OF agnostic could
become a member.
A letter of regret was read from Chief
Arthur OF the brotherhood Of Engineers,
who was unable TO be present.
