A. Poor Weapon.

That. the strike is a poor weapon with
which to promote the interests of the
workingman, and only to be resorted to
as a last resort, is shown again by the
results Of the telegraphers' strike on
the Great Northern and Northern Pa
cifc roads. It may be true that the
railroad companies have advanced
wages in number of cases to the point
or even above the point demanded by
the telegraphers organization before
the strike. But however that may be,
certainly the power of the organization
on these roads and perhaps on other
roads, too, has been weakened. by this
fruitless effort to compel the acceptance
of terms offered by the organization.
Mr.. Perham doubtless had a very diff
fcult task to perform. The chances
seemed to be against him at the start,
but of course it was his business to
weigh all these considerations before
undertaking strike. - ...
The operators and the companies
have both probably gained one result
of advantage to both-and that is that
men occupying these positions will
hereafter stand upon their own merits
as individuals more than they have
heretofore, and men of capacity and
industry will stand a better chance to
get on. One of the general managers
stated recently that, as evidence that
the question Of wages was not vital
.| he could demonstrate that any man OF
" good capacity and industry had a
! chance to earn better wages than de-
manded by the telegraphers themselves
The difficulty is to discriminate when
dealing with the organization between
the efficient and the inefficient, the
organization recognizing no gradations
!, and no discrimination between the
; qualifications Of their members.
This, it has always seemed to us, il
