The Railroad Trainmen's Journal in
its issue for November antagonizes the
American Railway league, claiming
that it is an outgrowth of the political
railway clubs organized during the last
presidential campaign. The league
claims to be an association of railroad
employees organized for the purpose Of
securing Independent political action
on the part of the railroad employees
The Journal says, in criticising the
league, that ut is an attempt to make
politicians. Railroad managers and
others believe that the officers of the
league possess an all-powerful influence
with the men that will lead them to
vote whichever way the aforesaid Of
icers direct them. The advantage Of
this to the officers will be better I'M
derstood when it is known that the
greater number of them (the instigat-
ors of the league) are either office
holders or seeking official positions
After stating that, although it has no
authority to speak for the other or
CARNATIONS, it does for the brotherhood,
it defines the position of the trainmen
as follows: THE brotherhood is indie
pendent in its politics. It censures
what it believes to be bad, and COM
mends what it believes to be good. 1t
does not throw itself into the breach
to save either the Republican, Demo-
cratic or Populist party, nor does it
favor candidate because he is affiIl-
ated with either party. It is indie
pendent of all parties, 1t believes in
men rather than party; it will never
issue circular advising it's members
to vote for either party and the mem
Der of the organization who signs his
name to any document advising the
voters of his state to vote for either
party, and represents himself as rep
resenting his organization, is simply
disappearing the Brotherhood Of
Railroad Trainmen."

row evening. 1t is reported that a
