A Troublesome Choice.

Mayor Dunno, OF Chicago, is in "a
curious dilemma. His pledged word
80 the people of Chicago is the only
thing which stands between those
people and the adjustment Of NEST
OF their traction difficulties With
them, he would look with great re-
lief on the settlement now pend
ing, but he cannot accept il if he
keeps his word 10 them.
On the basis of the city's own APP
praisal of the street railroad prop
critics, a division of the net earn

diate improvements, and radical and
sweeping reforms are 10 be iuaugu-
rated in management. Mayor, city
aldermen, and press all look upon
the proposition as an entirely ac-
ceptable means of improving the
transportation system.
The one obstacle is a prediction
pledge signed by Mayor Dunno that
there shall be no traction settlement
without a referendum. That gauge
of public opinion cannot now be APP
piled in Chicago before April ., aud
$1,000 signatures 10 "A request for
il must be obtained sixty days prev
ious-which is practical impossi-
bility. Wherefore the choice is be-
tween Edward F. DUNES personal
pledge and an improved service
without q years waiting.
Manifestly the mayor is entitled
To great sympathy. II is easy
enough 10 say as the Chicago press
does say, that the pledge is all non
sense and the people want better
transportation facilities rather than
a referendum It is still easier to
call Mr. DUNES hesitation the

agreement he did so on his honor. 1t

of the fact that the votes of $1,000

Probably he ought 10 repudiate it

iterated in the last week, that the
engineer who has the nerve and mi
tiative TO break the rules and make
his schedule, is the man whom the
railroads promote and favor-so
long as he is lucky enough not TO
run into a disaster The man who
has not the courage to take the
chances, and who cannot make the
time because he is cautious enough
20 obey the rules TO the letter, is
TOO slow; he must take a freight
engine or be given a seeond-elass
run ON a branch line. This is the
charge that railroad men make.
If these things are true. the cor
poration is more responsible than
the employees. If men are allowed
20 work 50 long as they can keep
going, with or without sleep, the
management that permits il is as
reckless as the men who do il. Ger
tain il is that some Dig railroads
are right now employing desperate
measure 20 line up their employees
against bin that would limit TO
sixteen re continuous hours of
service OF il'ainmen. They are bring
ing pressure 10 bear that amounts
TO intimidation. Why do they do IT,,
if they are anxious that men shoulG
not be oyerwOrked, and if the men
are themselves To blame for ex-
cessively long hours?
Ii is time 10 reach a determination
as to the comparative responsibility
of the man who consents 10 work
excessive hours, and the company
that permits or forces him to do it,.
If the current inquiries place all
the blame for the Terra Gotta dis
aster upon the engineer who had
been fifty-seven hours with only
eight hours sleep, they will not do
