Gigantic Electric Raiway.

We learn from the West Virgins
papers that a gigantic electric rail
way is about to be projected between
WEIGH and Bluefeld. II is proros. d
to erect a 10000 horsepower bo.ln
and engine at, or near, Powbatan,
for the purpose of running the cars
and also of supplying electricity for
any purpose desired all through the
country. Cars will be run every
thirty minutes over the road. and
will haul freight as we'll as passen-
gers. Such line would come in
competition with the N. &. w
there, and the utility of electricity
instead of steam would furnish an
interesting experiment.

The Strike Ended.

The strike which has tied ND the
Traction Company, of Albany and
Troy, N. Y, for some time, and which
resulted in the loss of property and
life, has at last ended, the strikers
having won.
The cause of the strike seems to
have been due to refusal of the
Company to recognize the Union a, =
to discharge non Union men from it's
employ. The demand that the
Union men be recognized and treated
with does not appear to be radical or
unreasonable, but to SAY that men
shall not employ whom they please
or work when and where thew
choose, is an infringement upon the
rights which belong to all men alike
A man has right to belong to a labor
organization or not. as be chooses
but no organization has right to
oppose or hinder any man in his free
choice to labor when and where he
