The strike would J down the movement of lumber to ll the south and east, if not stop A gttivity altogether; it would close jilreds of mills and turn thousands out of their employment; it ild prevent the marketing of one the largest crops of recent years in Item Oregon; it would bring suf I... nn.i lniiii in thousands of homes ,8 u are not concerned in the controver- irtween the trainmen, the Southern fic Company ami the Portland, Eu- 4 Eastern Railway Company, is proposed that the strike of the men shall take in all Southern Pa lines in the states of Oregon, Cali- a, I'tah, Nevada, Arizona and New ;l is plain that no labor organization Jlke right to precipitate such a ca ty without great provocation. The jme of their owu organizations, or ,'neral cut in wages at a time when 1jl'0st of living is high and increas inight justify such a strike. I situation is that the Portland, ne & Eastern Electric Railway (any is acknowledged to be asso ;fj with the Southern Pacific steam .cm. Under its plan the Portland, 'ine i Eastern is to be operated in fmlently of the Southern Pacific, take over a number of South ;3'atific lines as soon as they can Ifttrified. For many years the ora Pacific has operated its trains an agreement with the Order of ay Conductors and the Brother of Railway Trainmen, whereby irity in service has been recognized faking promotions. J a recent conference of trainmen jVfifere of the two companies all iions as to wages and hours of I were satisfactorily disposed of, jibe Portland, Eugene & Eastern l to retain in their positions all f "tors and brakemen employed on !ified steam lines at the time such pass into Portland, Eugene & '1 control, n the trainmen submitted the fol ft demand under date of July 8: fkat the present schedule of rates ami forking conditions for i"fn l,c continued in force and of "Ji.tart, and without any change in S'llioil of handling grievances, ox ykat the locnl cominittoes will I W for the electric service; such 'iiiniittees to deal with the dec jeffifials as other local officials ' company, ami if the local com f for the electric divisions fail V-li a settlement of any question N Beauty is a Joy Forevet T.

The same day E. E. Cnlvin e n.- Southern Pacific Company, replied as iumuwh: Changes proposed in vonrs of .Ti 8th to plan outlined in mine of June 28th, would not work out atifnt.ii and cannot be accepted by us. A com mittee sucli as I met in this matter, consisting of some 50 mBn f-n n parts of -New Mexico, Arizona, Cali fornia, Nevada, Utah and Oregon, would have no knowledge nor appre- cumuii oi conditions on electric lines in Portland and vicinity whom w to be in sharp competition ith other lines, and where the demands of the public as to character of service re quired of us will be more than nSniiv exacting. "Neithor could we consider for a moment agreeing in advance as to fu ture electric lines. Each situation will have to be worked out upon its own merits as in the cases that have arisen. However, there can bo no fault found with our treatment of them." Thereforo all that justified the train men in voting to Btrike was: First A difference of opinion as to whether a grievance committee of Port land, Eugene & Eastern men should handle disputes, as contended for by the company, or a committee of men lrom Oregon, California, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Nevada, as demand ed by the employes, and Second A demand that on Southern Pacific lines which may bo electrified in future years, all steam operatives should bo retained in the electrical ser vice. Mighty small matters on which to embroil the business interests, farmers, manufacturers and laborers of six statos, causing tremendous losses of money and suffering untold. That the railroad companies are right in wish ing to adjust future disagreements with their own men, instead of dealing with men from other states; and right again in refusing to bind themselves regard ing future operations, admits of no dis cussion. To the ordinary "sensible citizen" tho strike appears to bo fool ish, ill advised, and a losing fight for the trainmen. Under the conditions tho public at once becomes concerned in the pro posed strike. No organization of labor has a right to bring disaster on the country without just cause. The con ductors and brakemen are servants of tho public, the people, because tho com panies they permit to employ them arc public service corporations engaged in handling the products and merchandise of tho people between farm and mill and the markets of tho world. The Dllhlic ll.'IS mnrn million! nP ilrillnrri lit stake than hive tho trainmen, the Southern Pacific and the Portland, Eu gene & Eastern Company combined, The growth of the Pacific Coast is going to be advanced or retarded by electri cal railway development, No strike was ever won when public opinion was against tho strikers bo cause of an unjust cause, and on such flimsy pretexts as the trainmen will roly, if the proposed strike goes into effect, there can be little doubt of the result, The Southern Pacific and the P., E. & E. companies have pledged them selves to arbitration by appealing the entire matter to tho board of mediation and conciliation, recently appointed by the president under tho Nowlands act. The companies are thereby tacitly bound to accept the docision at that board. Under the circumstances the traiuiueu can hardly do less. A SHIPPER. DAILY CAPITAL JOPEKAl, SALEM.

Galloway, judge of department No. 2 of the Marion county circuit court, in passing upon several filial applications for admittance to cit izenship in the United Statos, said, when examining the different appli cants as to their former alliance with order or organizations which upheld views contrary to the peace and dig nity of the federal government: "Although the department of just ice in this county h:i never before passed upon tho subject as to whothu or not tho organization called tho In dustrial Workers of tho World is a purely law-abiding, constitution pro tecting and a loyal governmental body, It deem it right and proper at tliis time to broach what I believe to bo a ques tion concerning that union or fraternal body, while I am deciding what dispo sition rhall be made of thcde appli cants who are seeking to bo admitted as qualified citizens of our great United f-tntes, "To become a citizen of the United States, a foreigner must forever aban don his or her allegiance with their own respective countries, upholc. the constitution of this government and follow the Stars and Stripe eveu against their own native Innds.

With the same firm convictions gain ed by close surveyance of all vital matters concerning hns duties as cir cuit judgo, Judge Galloway yesterday stated that every court Jn the United States should bring out every point, confirm or dissolve every suspicion and exert every effort to arrive at the true beliefs and convictions of every man or woman who applied for Vupivrs en titling them to bo citizens of America. "Now is the tinio for tho courts to determine tho truo worth of those who apply for citizenship in this country," id Judgo Galloway. "Tho man who I mounts a soap box in tho public thor oughfare or standB before an audience (in a private or public building and do ( nouuecs the form of government that .has been adopted by this country, is not qualified to be a. citizon of the United States In my opinion.
