No Fight on Railroads.

1t appears that the leading labor
organizations made up of railroad
men, barring the American Railway
union, are generally opposed to any
restrictive legislation upon the rail-
road question. They claim, and with
much show of truth, that If the rail
roads are to be subjected to increased
legislative interference during these
depressed times, when earnings have
been so heavily reduced, that their
own wages will suffer. Unless traffic
improves there will be reduction OF
force or wages, or both.
In an interview at GAINESVILLE, two
or three days ago, John j. Hanahan,
grand master of the Brotherhood OF
Locomotive Firemen, said:
mo measure will pass the Wiscon-
sin legislature that looks toward the
reducing of the earnings of railroads,
if the railroad labor organizations
can stop it.
eve do not want the receipts of the
railroads cut down." said Mr.. Han
ahan this morning; chat would be
suicidal Neither do we want the
McGiIlivray bill passed. That bill, if
| am correctly informed, is designed
to do away with labor agitators.
There never was an instance when q
labor agitator' ordered a strike.
The lodge orders strike. The
labor agitator' simply sanctions
its order. 1t provides for compul-
sorry arbitration That will never
work. The only way to settle mat
tiers of difference is to get together,
talk it over and then adjust the sub
iect under discussion in the best way
possible.
"If the legislators have any future
political aspirations they will do we'll
to investigate this bill before they
vote The Republicans have always
professed to be the friends of the la
boring men and now they have a
chance to show it. If, as the McGil-
livray bill claims, strikes are ordered
by labor agitators, who have nothing
at stake and know nothing about
what they are doing why are the
workingmen of the state opposed to
this bill?
eve have nothing against the rail
road companies. Wedo not want to
get them by the throat or cut and
slash them. We want to see them
make money. The better their bust
ness, the better ours will be. We de-
pend upon their prosperity for our
pay, if they lose money we must have
our salaries cut too"
This idea is not confined to James
vile, but represents the feeling Of the
railroad men all over the country
and similar measures will be adopted
in all cases when similar bills are in
PRODUCED in the legislatures. Wiscon-
sin now has fourteen active lodges OF
locomotive firemen, all Of whom are
bending their efforts toward the de
feat o the McGillivary bill and the
proposed reduction of cost Of mileage

LAST year was much better for the
fire insurance companies than either
of the two preceding years. The
table of losses prepared by The New
York Journal of Commerce places the
fire losses for 1894 at $127 ,45O, 900,
as compared with $156, 445,875 in
1898, and 1892. 7O4, 7OOin 1892. A
decrease Of nearly one-6fth in the fire
losses of 1894, compared with 1898,
would seem to be a not unwarranted
demand for reduction in insurance
rates, which people are crying for sc
loudly.

on May IL, Providence will open the sea-
son in Syracuse. This is the plan adopted
by the league officers today In
the Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York,
where they are meeting to arrange the
schedule. Vice President J. M. Battey
and Secretary Edwin A. johnson went to
Gotham last night to attend the meeting.
President William II. Draper did not go,
as he is sojourning at the North Carolina
Hot Springs.
Previous to the regular season q series
OF games with prominent clubs will be
played here and lovers OF the sport will
have a good opportunity to judge Of the
champions' form. Two games have been
arranged with Boston, on April IL and IL,
and on the Goth with Brown University,
II the park.
On April % the Grays will play a return
game with the college boys on the latter's
diamond. An interesting and probab bly,
amusing game will undoubtedly be
played April "a, when q real Indian club,
ihe Ticonderogas OF Syracuse, are ex-
pected. On Decoration Day the Wilkes
barres will pro obab bly, play here, instead Of
the Springfieids, as heretofore.
The Providence nine is nearly made up.
The infield Is complete and all the old
players have signed except Lovett, Dixon,
McAuley aud Rudderham. They will un-
doubtedly sign In the near future. Lyons,
who was reported deceased" turned up
all right and fell in line.
Secretary Johnson says the prospects
for good ball this year are excellent and
he has no doubt the boys will play to win
this year, as last. Next 10 Providence
he considers Syracuse and Buffalo
the strongest teams and there ought
TO be the same lively interest in the games
which Providence ''cranks" have hereto
fore displayed.
The league comprises Providence, Buff
falo, Syracuse, Rochester, Toronto,
Wilkesbarre, Springfield and Scranton.

AS TO HARRISON.

The American people, regardless OF
politics and religion, generally rejoice
that e1-President Harrison is rapidly re-
covering from his recent serious illness
and is likely soon to be in the enjoyment
of fully restored health. Those who diff
fered most widely from the political views
of ez President Harrison frankly concede
that, while in the White house, he was n
hard and conscientious worker and he
merits the praise always due to an honest
public servant. More than this. E1-
presidents of the United States are be-
coming SO scarce that, like diamonds of
the first water, they are worth caring for.
The fact that Grover Cleveland permitted
himself to be reelected president of the
United States, after an interim of four
years, cut the list of ex-presidents down
to the indianapolis statesman. Doubt
less Gov. Mckinley and Tom Reed would
like to have ex-presdent in front of their
names, but that privilege will never be
granted them. The future presidents of
the United States will be avowed friends

Good for the Headlight.

The Headlight has arranged with Prof.
Charles Longuemare, of Ell Paso, an emf
nent authority, for series of articles
upon the question of artesan water for
southwestern New Mexico.
This paper believes that every condi-
tion in this country is favorable to the
development of an inexhaustible supply
of artesian water, and that preliminary
experiments will demonstrate this fact
beyond doubt. Investigation which has
been made in Colorado, Arizona and even
in New Mexico have produced the most
gratifying results. Prof. Longuemare
has given this matter careful investiga-
ton and his papers will be read with in
terest, and we hope will result in prac-
