EUGENE, Ore, October 15.-Presi-
Sproule of the Southern Pacific Com

connection with the railroad strike:
II cannot conceive that the employees
Of the Southern Pacific will strike
when. the matter of fixing the wages
and hours Of labor is in the hands of
the United States government, al
though thee union leaders seem to
have fixed upon the Southern Pacific
as one Of the first railroads to suffer

IF the men do strike, they will be
practically striking against the gov
