ORDER BLOCKS WHALEN
Injunction Proceedings Begun by
Senator FOeIker.

Albany. July 27.-State Senator otto G. Foelk-
or, Of Brooklyn. through counsel appeared before
Supreme Court Justice Fits in special term to-
day and secured an order requiring John s.
Whalen. Secretary of State. to show cause why
he should not ne enjomed from issuing notices
for an election of state Senators this fall. I'm
der the law such notices would have TO be issued
next week. The order forbids the Secretary OF
state to inform the Clerk of Kings County of an
election of Senator in the 4th District pending
argument on Senator Foelker's motion. Justice
Fits made his order Geturuable IL court in this
city next Monday Il; p.
Senator Foelker's complaint, after referring to
rrnalion that the Secretary of States in
tends to send out notices of an election of Sen
ators this fall declares that he himself has not
resigned been removed from office. and
points out that the Governor has not issued any
proclamation declaring his office vacant; alleges
that his duties Senator viii he interfered with
and irroparable damage done. and that the cleo
tion of another body pUrportins and asserting
itself TO be the Senate Of the State of New York
would necessarily enbarrass the public business
and affairs of the state and entail great and
necessary expense on the taxpayers. impairing
the government OF the state and leaving in doubt
which of said bodies is will be the de jure
Senate of the State of New York thus impairing
bills imposing taxes, appropriating moneys and
authorizing the issue of bonds and valid and
lawful enactments to tho great injury Of the
IilHliII ana me htn0r taxpayers OF inc state.
Senator Foelker is proceeding, through Alexander
THAN, his attorney. to prevent the holding of the
election of the 7fty-one State Senators this year
on the ground that they elected last yeag to
term OF two years, which, he argues. cannot he
curtaied because the reapportionment law e 1886
was held unconstitutional. The law requires that
the Secretary of State shall issue notice FOR call
Ing election at least three months In advance Of
Election Day. This will fall this year Just three
months from August :. that little time remains
for Senator Forlker to perfect his proceeding. 1t
is understood that the notice will he issued next
Wednesday,
While the Senator from Kings is acting only for
himself in the present case 1t is likely that other
Senators will proceed similarly to protect what
they assert is their right to continue in office
other year from January l. 1908. In case the cleo
tons are held and some Of the present members Of
the Senate are not returned. there is likely be
no end of litigation by the legislators now in office
to serve through the term for which they were
elected
decision OF the Court OF Appeals says that
legislator can be removed from his office only by
proper process OF law To that end, which Senator
Focker's attorney says IS not done by the mere
passage of the reapportionmeut law and the calling
of another election

Again, the public knows that there is
very little difference between the en-
pIoyes and the companies The former
want an increase of II per cent in
wages and a nine-hour day. The
latter are willing to cOncede an in
crease of 10 1-2 per cent in wages and
a ten-hour day. The difference in
money is not much to the individual
employees. but it amounts to large ag-
gregate for the railroads.
All of the railroads west of the Mis-
sissippi except the Chicago & Eastern
Illinois, the Denver & Rio Grande
system, and the Wabash are affected.

POSSIBILITIES OF STRIKE.

The dispatches published yesterday
held out some faint hopes that the
threatened strike of upwards of 80 200
railway conductors and trainmen may
be averted. 1t is greatly to be desired
that the hopes. elusive though they
may seem now, will be realized. The
far-reaching consequences of such a
strike may be imagined from a few
figures compiled by experts in Chicago.
Forty railroad systems with a total
traekage of $1,000 miles are involved. If
the strike is called and the strikers
succeed in tying up the systems $4,000
men, earning average wages of $50 a
month, will be thrown out Of employ
ment. That is TO say, the loss in wages
win be approximately SIS. 700, GOO a
month. Do you know that that is los
ing money at the rate of so second?
IL is nearly 100000 a day Think
what that means to the working men.
Think what 1t means to their families,
and think what it means TO the bus
mess men with whom they deal
1t is reported that the conductors and
trainmen. combined. have a defense
fund aggregating s725,O90. That is Just
$3.50 per capita. How long could the
strikers hold out ON that sum of money.
The railroads. on the other hand, have
practically unlimited capital. They
could hold out forever, if necessary
Viewed from the cold-blooded stand
point the men would seem to have no
chance whatever.
There is another point. 1t is greatly
TO be doubted if the strikers could rely
upon the public for sympathy. The
public is intolerant Of any strike that
inteFferes greatly with its sarety or its
comfort That the comfort and safety
of the western public would be most
axgravatingIy interfered with if a
strike is ordered is perfectly obvious.

MI FOOLS DAY.

II may be rather mean of us-viewed
through the small boys eyes-to remind
you that this is All Fools day. II
that pale gray ass of all asses. the
practical joker. has some hee haw fun
at your expense don't blame us; don't
say we didn't warn you. There are a
few concrete possibilities in the All
Fools day line to which we desire to
draw your attention, TO the end that,
when they are presented, they may not
cause the slightest jar TO your mental
faculties.
First;-ff your friend tells you that
the journal guided by Messrs Spry,
Callister and Tommy Hull prints a
statement to the effect that the morn
ing organ of the American party is
the best newspaper that was ever pub
lished. and that it is doing a tremen-
doUs amount Of work towards the up
building of the city and the state
just laugh. 1t will be an ADriI fool
joke of the broadest kind.
Second:-If it is said that the Amer
lean" organ has come out with the as
sertion that the editor of the Deseret
News was never known TO depart from
the truth, that he is an able, fearless
and intelligent writer and that he has
never made a mistake of any kind
1T will be a Joke Don't believe any
body who tells you the American"
organ made any such statement
Enthusiastically may try to tell you
that Reed Smoot is going 10 resign
the senatorship in order that Governor
Cutler may carry out long felt de-
sire to appoint Colonel Matt Daugherty
to that exalted position, in view of the
close relations between the colonel and
the president. You may not know
where you're going, but be on your way
the moment you hear the story.
Fourth:-Don't believe the individual
who comes along with a story that he
has just seen Senator Sutherland and
that the senator has told him that he
is doing ali ne can to have Bill GIas-
mann made postmaster of Ogden. Just
pass right along towards your place of
business
And OF course you will make no eff
fort TO pick UP the fat pOcketbook you
viii see on your way down town, OF
the coin that is glued TO the sidewalk
Also you win pay no attention when
the boy behind calls out that you have
dropped your handkerchief. In one
other respect we advise you to be care
ful If the man who has owed you
that SO SO long telephones you to
come over and get it. you'd better go
Take the chance even if it is All Fools
daV
