THE NEW YORK STRIKE.

Two big facts predispose the American public to
sympathy with the railway employees in the big
New York labor controversy one is that the employ
deny their the right of organization and col
lective BARGAINING right which definitely estab-
Iisbed countries the right to
vote The other is that the employees paid lower
wages than men in similar n most other American
cities.
An experienced street railway man gets % cents
day less in New York than i'm Boston Cleveland for
an eigh-hour He 40 cents day less in New
York than in Detroit less in New York than in
Chicago, and a day less in New York than in
san Francisco.
these cities except possibly san Francisco the
cost Of living is lower than in New York. Moreover in
nearly them the railways better serv-
ice than in New York and they give that service
sometimes in Cleveland and Detroit,
and sometimes along with division of earnings. as in
Chicago In no other city America has the public
been more mercessy exploited by street railway com
panies New York has been.
