CHAPTER V
In Two Camps

In the. headquarters of the Civic
League sat Give Standish. With
him were the committee chosen to
conduct his campaign. Karl An
sci, lean, hard-hedded New Eng
land giant, their chairman, and in
cidentally, campaign manager, was
going laboriously over list of
counties, towns and Villages, cor
robordting certain notes he made
from time to time, by referring
to a big colored map of the
Mountain State.
Owe checked off the places that
are directly under the thumb Of
the {. q. d X.," Ansel. was explain
ing as the rest of the group lean
ed over to watch the course of
his pencil along the map. II m
afraid they are as hopelessly in
Conover's grip as Granite itself.
It's in the rural districts, and in
the towns that aren't dependent
on the main line, that we must
find our strength. It's an uphill
fight at best, with"
with a million-and-a-half peo-
pie who are paying enormous tax
es for which they receive scant
value, who have thrust on them a
legislature and other officials they
are forced to elect at the Boss's or
der !" finished Standish. "Surely,
it's an uphill fight that's well
worth while, if we can Wake men
to a sense of their own slavery
and the frauds they are forced to
connive at. And that's what we're
going to do
The more experienced, if less
enthusiastic, Ansel scratched his
chin doubtfully.
THE people, as a mass are slow
to wake,@ he observed. "Oftener
they just open one eye and growl
at being bothered, and then roll
over and go happily to sleep "a
gain while the Boss goes through
their pockets. Don't start this
campaign too optimistically, Mr..
Standisk. And don't get the idea
the people are begging to be wax
ed. If you wake them you've got
TO do it against their will. Not
with any help of theirs. Mayoe
you can. Maybe you can't. AS
you say, it's perhaps worth try.
Even if"
"But they've been walked before
insisted Standish. "And when
they do awaken, there are no half
measures about il. Look how Jer-
ONE, on an independent fight, won
out against the Machine in 1905.
Why should the Mountain State
"The people are sleepy by ma
ture," laughed Anscl. "They wake
up with roar, chase the Boss out
Of their house, smash the Machine
and then go back to bed again
with the idea they're heroes. AS
soon as their eyes are shut, back
strolls the Boss, mends his ma
chine and reopens business at the
old stand. And that's what you
have to look forward to. But we've
been all over this sort of thing
before. I'll have your Speech
route made out in an hour, and
start a man over it this after
noon to arrange about the halls
and the 'papering' and the press
work. Speaking of press work,

THOUSANDS OF Deawareans. railroad employees
and those dependent upon them Will he inter-
estcd ia the following seemingly inspired article that
appears ON the front page of the current number OF
h Chicag9 Railway Record. which,. in the struggle
between the railroad companies aud their men, has
been taking the railroad side of the controversy:
The complete abolition OF railroad passes Of an
classes permissible under the Interstate commerce law
and under state laws Us being discussed by managing
officers OF the ways to meet the increased
pense as the result OF the movement FOR full crew.
roads IN various parts of the country. This action
adopted viii result in disseminating all free transpor
auon OF railroad employees and members OF their fam
lies 1t IS estimated that S50OOOO persons through
out the country arc the benehcares Of free transpor-
tation railroads and all expense incident thereto
will be eliminated i concerted action Is taken by the
railroad managementH.
The contention OF the railroads is that recent egs-
laton md further threatened regulation and legisla-
tion will add the operating expenses OF the roads
one OF hese methods VIII be to curtall Tree anspora-
ton IL Is also contended that employees OF the
roads are largely responsible for the enactment OF the
laws which VIII increase the cost OF running the foa1s
t is but proper they help In making up the deficit by
foregoing free transportation Commenting on the
situation an official OF one OF the large roads says
"1he effect Of the full crew and other legislation
Is TO greatly and unnecessarily increase the operating
expense OF tho companies The net revenue OF most
railroads Is not large enough 70 justify this added In
crease without oconomzing in other directions The
elimination OF free transportation to employees and
their families seems to be one feasible method OF meet
ing the situation"
General managers OF Colorado roads arc on record
that II full-crew bill Of that state becomes law,
passes will be given 10 employees or members
of their families on the ground that the legislation
promoted by employees and as IL tends to increase
operating OF the companies, In order to meet
this larger outlay economy must q effected IN other
directions and one OF the most feasible methods for
this purpose curta cut off entirely free trans
portation.
The effect Of such cutting off OF free transportation
probably would be to intensity the deplorable Ill
feeling already existing between many OF the COM
paniea and and their It also is barely possible
that the employees might make of It excuse for
still further demands upon the companies. Rail-
road men and their families have been accustomed
many years TO having free transportation that the
cutting on Of the privilege unquesoaaby will lead
to bad blood wherever It may be done.

Belgium IS in the throes Of OF the worst po-
ca and industrial crises In It's history How strong
the sentiment is in favor OF universal suffrage for the
men is shown by the fact that 35OOOO artisans mostly
trade unonists and Socialists, have gone strike
and threaten to remain out until their demands
granted. OF tho strikers 10000 are miners The
1000 other strikers have been recruited from all
walks Of llfe Business paralysis quite naturally has
followed a strike Of such magnitude and, seemingly
the end is not yet Tho leaders Of tho suffrage move
mont say that by tomorrow the strikers will have
increased to 100000 It goes without saying that the
Government is greatly disturbed. Thus far, how
ever, it has refused to accede to the demands OF the
mon That it will have TO do SO, later is
taken for granted the suffrage agitation has made
so many converts that the general strike is pract-
cally equivalent to a hloodess revolution How long
it will remain bloodless will depend upon the tact,
the government officials display in handling the strike
and making satisfying concessions. II We may judge
by the news that from the other side by cable,
there will be neither industrial political peace
until tho suffrage demands Of the manhood Of Boil
