The Public and the Strike.

Washington is now experiencing its
first serious street railway strike. As
Q result of the sudden organization of
apparently large majority of the OPP
eratives of the two traction lines and
the swift declaration of strike in the
absence of a prompt granting of de-
mands, the street car service of the
capital is very greatly crippled, and
thousands of people are subject to a
grievous inconvenience.
The District Commissioners have,
with commendable promptness and en-
ergy, undertaken to effect an adjust
ment of the differences between the
companies and their operatives, laboring
practically all day yesterday in series
of conferences which, unfortunately,
came to naught. With the public well
fare primarily in mind the Commission
ers tried to secure a provisional agree
ment for a resumption of full service
and the unemployment of the men
pending an arbitration of the issues in
volved. 1t is a matter of great regret
that these endeavors have been fruit
less, and it is to be hoped that the Com
missioners will continue, as the repre-
sentatives of the public, to try to effect
q settlement.
The specific issue involved in this sit
uation is the demand of the men for
an improvement of their condition, in
volving a demand for the recognition
of their organization. The companies
resist the presentation of the demand
through this organization and insist upon
dealing with the operatives as individual
employees. The public is, however, con-
cerned not with this issue, but with the
main question of a continuation of the
street railway service.
The chief sufferers in street railway
strike are always the people Who have
no utilization with either side lie pub
lie is prone to blame one Or ! other of
the contendents whose action tends to
bring about cessation of service. 1t is
also prompt to encourage that side
which best serves it. In a non-partisan
spirit the public wishes to bring both
sides together. to gain the equity of fair
treatment of the men and of the com
panies, but mainly the greater equity of
keeping the street railway system at the
oraoYod
If the car men attempt violence and
render such service as the companies
ARE able to maintain dangerous to the
patrons they lose in public sympathy.
On the other hand. that sympathy tends
toward them if the companies have
acted precipitately and unjustly in the
unwarranted dismissal of operatives be-
fore the issues were joined.
Thus far there has been no violence
worthy Of the name, and it is to be
hoped that the operatives will restrain
themselves and restrain their sympa-
thizers from any such dangerous folly
as often accompanies street car strike
On the other hand, the public will look
to the corporations to accept at the
earliest possible moment any practical
bic opportunity that may be offered to
adjust the present differences, and thus
TO restore the service which they are
charged by their charters to furnish.
