Show THE RAILROADS jUncle Sam has restored the railroads back to their owners, to the men from whom he took them before the war, but who have helped him to operate them in his own way ,and witout a murmur.' He gives back the property in a run-down condition, and in worse repair than the individual companies ever permitted them to fall into. He hands them back right at a time when labofr unrest is more serious than it has ever been before. He says 'Here's your railroads, I don't need them any longer, hop in now and straighten straigh-ten them out" We believe every faiv minded Logan man will agree with us that of all the sacrifices sac-rifices made daring the war for winning A complete victory, no one set of men sacrificed sac-rificed more than the railroad men.They. get back the?. roadsin such shape it will take them years to repair them up to the . standard set before'they were handed over ov-er to Uncle Sam. Thev have lost milions of dollars on their investments, but they have not murmured, and the instant they get thei" property back they called in the heads of the union and suggested that the waga differences hy talked vcwer. caluijw' and sensibly and without any man losing an hour's work, or the public being inconvenienced. incon-venienced. There has always been a certain amount am-ount of antipathy shown toward a railroad rail-road company. For our part we believe every man so inclined will give thought to the sacrifice made bv railroad companies to win the war, -and be more considerate in the future. |
