THE STREET car STRIKE.


Editor e. Paso Herald
Last evening a committee represent

Of Fl Psso held q conference with Mr..
Bradley with a view to bringing about
a settlement Of the present carmen's
trouble, through arbitration, which is
a recognized method Of settling labor
troubles, a method by which all fair
corporations are glad 10 settle and a
method by which the third party, the
public" gets justice.
The committee met with a flat re-
fusal to arbItrate on the part Of the
management. The street car officials
gay they treat their men we'll II they
try TO organize. they are discharged

get to work at all. or work q couple
n hours for - cents-thats humani-

Some corporations can't afford u
pay good men a living wage but can
spend thousands Of dollars to break a
strike
Finally. I will say to the public
that any time a corporation refuses

ployes. you can rest assured there Is
something wrong in iJs methods.
