RAILWAY ENGINEERS, HOME.

There is no body of associated labor
in this country that has the business to
it that is shown by the locomotive en-
gineers. This is in no small measure
owing TO the fact that Chief Arthur is
one of the most conservative and level
headed business men in the country.
He has managed the affairs of the en-
gineers with wonderful skill and a
nicely of adjustment to circumstance
that is deserving of all praise. His
latest move is his best. This is the
establishment of home for destitute
engineers, their widows and orphans,
and is one of the grandest charities
that has yet been undertaken by any
of the industrial orders. There is
nothing will so induce to establish the
order in all that makes for the real
efficiency of its members, or stable
their character as this provision that
is made against accident or want in
their old age. 1t is work that
should receive the hearty assistance of
the railroads of the country for it is as
much to their interest to help provide
for their old engineers as 1t is for the
engineers themselves. BY this inter-
est in their home" the roads of the
country tie the engineers to their work
and to the greatest possible loyalty
with bands of steel. Such home will
encourage the men who handle the
lever to be not only true and trusty,
but it will stimulate them to advance
in their profession in every possible
way. Fear makes towards of us all.
Want makes criminals. Need makes
theft. All these are warded off in
the certainty of home and a COM
Portable provision for old age or disa-
bility, and more than this of a home
for loved ones in case of accident
The property chosen for a home is a
beautiful one in Central Illinois, COM
prising $50 acres and was knocked
down to the engineers at the sheriff's
sale, under which it was put upon the
market, without competition as it was
known for what it was intended. There
is no more dangerous calling among
civilized nations than that of a rail-
road engineer, none calling for great
er GOODNESS, courage, ready resource
and all other high manhood quality.
The tens of thousands of railway en-
gineers in the country make a formi-
dable body to be provided for, as so
many of them are suddenly cut down
without moments warning and their
wives and children too often left with
out adequate means for proper sup
port. The wealth of the railroad COM
panies as we'll as the savings of the
engineers may very fittingly go to build
up home so every way necessary and
beneficial as this.

There is not bit of sense in the sew
eral senatorial districts in this state be-
ing drawn into that foolish contention
OF National Committeeman Grant.
There is no power in the executive
committee of the state to remove the
chairman of the state, nor in the state
chairman to remove the chairmen of
the several districts. Each district ell
ects its own chairman and is supreme
in that matter. The last regularly
chosen district chairman holds office
until his successor is regularly elected.
The state chairman is elected
by the state convention, and only the
state convention can elect his successor.
If the executive committee should re-
move him it would exceed it's author
ity and the act would not be recogniz-
ed by the state convention. All things
remain just as they were before DR..
Grant attempted to usurp the func-
tons of the state Republican chair
man.
