- The telegraphic operators all over the
country are on the eve of a strike.
They will demand shorter hours of ser
vice and that Sunday will be paid for
as extra. As yet the movement is con
fined to New York, where it is said a
demand is to be niaile upon the West
ern Union officials. The New York
Sun says: "
Regarding the grievances it is assert
ed by the operators that in the winter
time telegraphing is dull, and many
first-class operators are compelled to
accept small salaries. When summer
arrives, and telegraphing becomes very
brisk through the opening of country
and 'summer offices, there is a lajger
demand fbroperator3. and second-class
men are often employed at higher sal
aries than first-class men are getting.
The first-class men are kept on the
wages which were paid them in duil
times- The hours of service for day
operators are from 8 A. M. to 5;30 P.
M., and halt an hour for lunch. The
night men come on at 5:30 P. M., and
work till business will let them off, with
extra pay after 1 A. M.
When the operators make their de
mand upon the company they will ask
that first-class operators be naid &100
a month, and that there be $5 and 10
difference between the several - grades.
At present the salaries for men range
from $50 to $95 per month, and for
women from $20 to $60, although it is
asserted that out of the 150 female
operators employed there are not more
than three who get $60. The average
salary paid to the women operators is
said to be 30. The company will be
requested by the operators to pay men
and women of equal ability equal wa
ges. . All the oprerators seem confident that
their demands will not be refused.
They say that if they act together they
cannot help succeeding.

interesting child and had won the love
of the family of Mr. Meadows, almost
as if she had been of their own flesh and
blood. What must be the feeling of the
real mother- when she sees her own
offspring whom she cannot acknowledge
borne to the silent graye while she may
not betray a maternal emotion ?
