Ktlluientiv Ims been tlie watchword
of Uuwnior Morelieari's administra
tion, and It will be the wutebword of
Governor Neville. Like John II
Morehead, Keith Neville Is a thor
oughly trained business man and be
lieves that, public employes, like pri
vate employes, should ronder a dol
Ittr's worth of service for every dol
Ittr received.
The Chief does not believe in fiat
tery but does believe that a word of
appreciation when deserved Is not out
of place. Wo have reference to the
recent convictions and punishment of
criminals In Webster county which
has been done promptly and elTcctivO'
ly. The convlstlons of the bootleg
gars, Wright and Cameron, and the
horsethicf, Ilnll, and their speedy pun
ishment speaks well for our ofllcors,
botli city and county. County attor
ney Muiiday has done his part in these
prosecutions well. He lifts not filed
complaints where the evidence would
not warrant convictions and tints sav
ing much expense to- the county.
When a complaint is made, he prompt
ly collects the evidence while it is
easily secured. It is not the greatness
of the punishment for crime but the
certainty that make laws obeyed. We
believo thut Mio clti.ons and tax pay
ers of the county will appreciate the
experience and cillclency of a careful
and conservative olllcer, which Mr.
Munday hits proven himself to be.

THE DRUGGIST
Federal Inquiry or
Railroad Strike?
Faced by demands from the conductors, engineers, firemen and brakemen
that would impose on the country an additional burden in transportation costs of
$100,000,000 a year, the railroads propose that this wage problem be settled by
reference to an impartial Federal tribunal.
With these employes, whose efficient service is acknowledged, the railroads
have no differences that could not be considered fairly and decided justly by such
a public body.
Railroads Urge Public Inquiry and Arbitration
The formal proposal of the railroads to the employes for the settlement of
the controversy is as follows:
"Our conferences hive demonstrated that we cannot harmoniie our differences ol opinion anil that eventually the
matters in controversy must be passed upon by other and disinterested agencies. Therefore, we propose that your
'proposals and the proposition of the railwajt be disposed of by one or the other of the following methods:
1. Preferably bv submission to the Interstate Commerce Commission, the only tribunal which, by reason of its
accumulated information bearing on railway conditions and its control of the revenue of the railways, is in a posi
tion to consider and protect the rights anil equities of all the interests affected, and to provide additional revenut
necessary to meet the added cost of operation in case your proposals are found b) the Commission to be'just and
reasonable; or, in the event the Interstate Commerce Commission cannot, under existing laws, act in the premises,
that we jointly request Congress to take such action at may be necessary to enable the Commission to consider and
promptly dispose of the questions involved; or
2. By arbitration in accordance with the provisions of the Federal law" (The Newlands Act).
Leaders Refuse Offer and Take Strike Vote
Leaders of the train service brotherhoods, at the joint conference held in New
York, June 1-15, refused the offer of the railroads to submit the issue to arbitration
or Federal review, and the employes are now voting on the question whether
authority shall be given these leaders to declare a nation-wide strike.
The Interstate Commerce, Commission is proposed by the railroads at the
public body to which this issue ought to be referred for these reasons:
No other body with such an intimate knowitdge
of railroad conditions has such an unquestioned posi
tion in the public confidence.
The rates the railroads may charre the public (or
transportation ire now largely fixed Ty this Govern
ment board.
Out ol every dollar received bv the railroads from
the public nearly one-half is paid directly to the em
ploye! as wages; and the money to pay increased we
can come from do ether source than the rates pais)
by the public.
The Interstate Commerce Commission, with id con
trol over rates, it in a position to make a complete
investigation and render such decision as would pro
tect the Interests of the railroad employes, the owner
ol the railroads, and the public.
A Question For the Public to Decide
The railroads feel that they have no right to grant a wage preferment of
$100,000,000 a year to these employes, now highly paid and constituting only
one-fifth of all the employes, without a clear mandate from a public tribunal that
shall determine the merits of the case after a review of all the facts.
The single issue before the country is whether this controversy is to be settled by an
impartial Government inquiry or by industrial warfare.
