IftpUTIef.
One of the officers of the electric road, in an
interview published in THE CALL this week
speaking OF strikes, says: ain case of any Diff
fculty we would have matchmaker on every
car and insure an unbroken service" The
idea of carrying the mail piecemeal in order to
circumvent strikers would appear ridiculous
to any but the bloated magnstes of the cleo
trio iroad. To subordinate the mail service of
the United States to meet exigencies VIII ich are
likely to arise in their business seems to be a
trihing thing to them, however.
