There is son to hope that the combination laws may be improved, and that the mutual responsibili empioyer and em- ployed under the labor contract may be better defined. But such improvements will tend vather to narrow the fighting ground, and prevent the public from Jeing taken unawares, than to remove the actual occasion for the fight. The trouble is too deep-seated to be met by RAILROAD STRIKES. How Can They Be Prevented? Arthur T. Hadley, in the Forum for June: Railroad managers have to fuce two distinet problems. With those who use the roads there are disputes about rates and ilities; with those who operate the roads there ave disputes about wages and organization. The question of railroad rates i siantly under discussion, and there has been a decided though slow progress towards its solution. No such vrogres can be observed in the relations between the railronds and their employ: A period of labor troubles comes and di- reets public attention to this matter, but when the strikes are over the pub- lic and the railrond managers forget all about them, and go on n the same heedless way as before. Yet railroad strikes involve a more vital problem than disputes about rates. The question what we are to pay fora given servige is less serious than the question whether we are 1o have that service at all, And itisin this last form that the matter comes before the public in the event of a widespread railrond strike. This is what gives troubles their greatest im- portance at the present day. It isnot that these disputes are so much more numerous than they were fifty years ago; the difference 1n this respect is not near great as most people believe. » lubor troubles then, just as e are now. But their effect upon the public to-duy is much move serious; first, because we are now more depend- ent for the necessavies of our daily life upon railronds and other agencies em- ploying large bodies of workmen than we were fifty year : and secondly because the concentration of indust in a few hands makes the strikes occur on u larger scale all at once, instend of being scattered along from month to month and from place to place. they were thus scutte left to be fought out by the parties im- mediately interested. To-duy the public interests are involved much more deeply; the parties to the conrest huve puh‘ll' responsibilities which they must not be allowed to overlook. A railrond corporation must without serious interruption L it is chartered. Whatoever I tions the courts may make, the public demands continuous service. If the present system does not secure such service, there will be a demand too powerful to be vesisted for a change of system. But may the workmen be al- lowed to take aavantage of this um\.‘~»~|l\, uu? thus impose upon the corporation whateyey terms the Y plea Obyiously no.

When a trouble arises from 2 misun- derstanding rather than from a real controversy over a vital point, the mer chance to talk things over calmly m prevent a conflict, It is unfortunately true that many managers and superin- tumlcnu mistaking the appearance of discipline for the reality, give work- men v little opportunity to talk o their just grounds of complaint; and they thus foster an irritation which ought never to have arisen. Insuch cases arbitration may be lhn-mmuw for a mutual undersfand- ing. The French courts of arbitration, about whose success so much has been said are chiefly of this kind. They are not composed of men selected for their technical knowledge whose chief duty itis to make an award on disputed points, but men who will try to bring the parties at issue to o mutual under- standing and @ voluntary agreement.

Those of us who distrust the present tendencies toward state eial- ism must see to it that our system of industrial selection under private en- terprise shall do the work which modern social organization requives. Fou this purpose it must bring to the front not mevely 1 leaders of men.

Asan indirect result of strikes a beginning was made in this direction by relief us- sociations like that of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad. These things are good as far as they go. They create a bond of interest between the employe and the corporation. They mark an aband- onment of the positiou that the corpor- ation will puy wages Jong as the workman is in good health and that it ix none of the company’s busivess what happens afterwards a position which has caused many employes first, to seek in- surances in labor m'g.mimlmu.ulld then process, to look to those ov- s the representatives of his true and permanent inter But such relief associntions means solve our difficulty. They do something, but not enough, The work- man often dislikes to have anything like a deposit of money witn the cor- poratior It looks as if it were a sort of security for his good behavior, even though the company is serupulously careful not to tr itas such. Many employes ave suspicious of everything of this kind; and such suspicion is uot to be wondered at. We must go one step farther, and cr ate a feeling of permanence and loyalty in the railroad servics This can be done, for it has been done Europe. There the ruilvoad em- s feel that they have a_permunent sition. and an assurance of promotion. They feel that their interests ure iden- fied with those of the system on which they work. Of the 2,000 strikes of the past decade in England, hardly o dozen were connected with rai and none of these were of grave i ance, Aftera recent ident on the Mancheste Sheffield & Linconshire ruilway the employes held a meeting, and offered voluntarily to bear their shave of the loss by contributing. in a body. a week'’s 5. The offer was epted by the divectors, who suid at the stockholders we better able to bear the loss than the employes; but it is significunt as showing a state of feeling, on both sides, quite in contrast at to which we wecustomed, can such a vesult be brought ubout? Not by any profit-sharing; such systems are usually too complicated either to be applied to the railroad or- ganization or 1o be felt as a moral force by the men, It is better that the em- ploye should receive his payment in the form of wages or salary, and that he should have un inceutive 1o good work dvancement when Among the assurane jorded us by the regular disch the bodily functions, none is morc portant und reliable than that which veguls of the bowels givesus.

First, stability of SHERIDAN'S FIRST VICTORY. How, as a Boy, He Outmancuvered a Schoolmaster. Chieago Inter-Ocean: The followi story was eredited in wartimes to Major ‘man J. Jackson of the Eleventh Ohio Sheridan used to go to school at Somerset to an Irish school teacher of shest sort named Patrick Me- who believed that the intelli- morality and happiness of the scholar depended upon u liberal of the birch and this deponent can verily id that in that he was truly seentific, “One terribly cold morning of 1852 o, 1843 two of Patrick’s scholars got there alittle ahead of time. They crawled through the window to get warmed,and once in the chief enemy of mankind und schoolboys well us the discov. ery of a buck full of ice wate tempted them to trick the teache They fastened the bucket of water over the door, in such a manner that the opening of the door would tilt it upon the head of anyone entering, and re- tired to wateh the result from a neigh- horing haymow. “Patrick soon came rubbing his hands vigorously wo keep them warm, hurriediy turned” the key, and bolted in just us the bucket tur) ned over his head. [t is nota “bull” to say that his Celtic blood was heated by the chilling douse. His situation was a bad one. There wasn't a boy to beat any- where about. He look all around, inside and out, but there wasn’t a soul to be seen, So he armed himsell with a six-foot hickory twig, built on a rous- ing five, and sat "down to dry, fully de- termined to flog the first boy who en- tered. **An unfortunate came and almost at hand was on the latch Patrick secized him by the collur and shook him fiercely ‘to shake the truth out of him,’ he sai astonished looks und as- tonishing yells convineed Patrick that the boy knew nothing of the outrage. Setting him down by the fire, he aguin placed himself in position of attack. “The next, and the next, and the next went through the same operation, and finally, when nearly all the school had been throttled and shaken into their seats, our two youngsters climbed down the haymow, éntered the school- room, got their shaking and went to work. Tt happened that Phil Sheridan was late that morning, and as euch one proved his innocence, the presumption the stronger against the few who were left to suspeet. Finally Phil cume—the last, und, of course, the guilty one, if everybody else wus innocent. “Just as he opened the door Patrick made a drive for him. Phil tlml-rml and commenced a potreat. Patiick thought thala proof of his guilt, and escaped, Away ‘went Phil up the street, and away went the teacher after him, bare- headed, stick in hand, the whole school bringing up the rear, all on the run. Phil lost a little on the home streteh, and by the time Mr, Sheridan’s house was reached his pursuer waus oo close to let him shut the gate. and on he broke into the back yard. Theve he got rein- farcements in‘the shape of a Newfound- land pet dog, which instantly made an attack on Patrick’s flank and vear, “*Patrick mounted the fence—so did Phil. The dog snapped at Patrick’s heels, and he discovered it necessary to climb an apple tree sre he found himself out of bre ) 4»1 patience, and very completely outflauked. 4 Take away your devilish Phil.” said he, ‘or 1] bate the e. trotting along, little fellow soon the instunt his dog, life of him.l{mm. and with that he got anm old piece of carpet and laid it under the tree for the dog to watch over. “The dog laid down on it, and Phil mounted the fence, where he sat, cons templative, with his chin in his hands and his elbows on his knee *What do ant to lick me for usked?’ asked “*What did you throw the me for?’ was the answ * 1 didn’t throw any water on you.? *“You did, though, bekase none of the boys did, and I'll polish you to death entirely if you don’t let me down.’ “*He started down, but Rover wen§ for his foot before it was nearly in reach and the teacher retreated up’ the tree, calling loudly for Phil’s father.
