A strike adviser named Edmiaten
camo down from Cheyenne Tuesday
for tho purpose of seeing what could
bo done in the way of getting the
forty-five or fifty switchmen in this
city to follow the example of switch
men at Cheyenne and indulge in a
wnllt-dut. Edmiaten, however, was
given cold comfort by tho transporta
tion employes in North Platte. Tuos
day aftei'noon a meeting was hold, Hit
this was not very largely attended,
and while the feeling among tlnso
present were against a walk-out, .10
definite action was taken. Wednesday
afternoon another meeting was held,
which was attended' by 300 employes
of tho transportation department, with
Herman LeDioyt as chairman. Edmls
ten, whose ostensible purpose In com
ing here was to Incite the men Into
leaving their work and joining the In
surgents who went on a strike, was
given twenty minutes to make his
talk, after whlch-he was interrogated.
At tho close of tho Interrogations the
big assemblage of men were so dis
pleased with Edmiaten that he was
respectfully Informed that his absence
was more desired than his presence
and ho loft the room.'
The transportation employes In
North I'lattc believe that whatever
demands they may make can best bo
made through their brotherhoods, that
they have agreements with the com
pany which as honorable men they
are bound to respect, and that what
ever wrongs or grievances they may
have can never bo righted by Ignoring
brotherhood ties and becoming insur
gent strikers. Just at this time, the
public will commend tho brotherhood
men for remaining true to their or
ganizations and loyal to their em
ployer.
