Chartered in 1861, tt Has Had 'Many Ups and Downs. , ' Greensboro, May 17. Investi gation into the right of the South ern Railway Company, to use property along its right of way between Greensboro and Danville for double tracking purposes, which right is now in litigation in both the State and Federal courts, brings to light some interesting facts, probably tnte many years ago, but new to the -general pub lic of today. , The road was chartered in 1861, and strange to say, origin ally provided for a double track road, something new in railroad construction in the South fifty years ago. i ne road was buut as military necessity to give tne Confederate forces and govern ment forees . and government through communication net ween the seat of the government and its Southern territory. It was as sueh operated by the Confederate government during toe war, ana after the war was over the United States government seized it as part of the effects of the Confed erate government and it was op erated by the secretary of the United States treasury. The Rich mond and Danville corporation established its claim to the prop erty by -showing that it had pur chased of and paid the uonteder ate government every one of the bonds of the road, paying tun value. Another interesting cir cumstance is the fact that the Confederate government being obliged to build this gsp between Danville and Greensboro and be ing unable to procure rails, pro ceeded to confiscate the rails on the road between Clarksville, Vs., and Henderson, N. C, completely dismantling this road, and build ing with the iron and other ma terial the imperatively needed link. A few years after the war, the Richmond and Danville road laid new rails from Clarksville, Va., along this old route for five miles south east, making it a part of the new line of road now known as the Oxford and Dur ham. Within the last year, the balance of the old line ot the Clarksville and Henderson road has been worked over by some corporation and raihi are being or have been laid via Townseno church in Granville county, a dis tance of 15 or 20 miles, thus after fifty years restoring a road which for military necessities was dis mantled nearly fifty years ago. FORCE DXOOME TAX. New York, May 18. The an nual address of President James. W. Van Cleave, of St. Louis, at the fourteenth annual convention of the National Association of Manufacturers today made a sensational attack on union labor and urged newl endeavor for the establishment of the open shop principle. He said : A review of the relationship of capital and labor last year is necessary to show the adroitness, persistency and unscrupulousness of the enemies of every manufac turer in the United States. Some members consider we have been too aggressive. They think they, believe in amicable adjustments. A compromise, on these issues would conspicuously, fail when a principle is involved. Concessions are wicked. We defeated - these enemies of manufacturer at Washington, we defeated them at - the Chicago convention and when they succeeded in getting some of their doctrines of class favor in the Denver platform we threw our support to the Chicago nomi- nee with a decisive result. Now they have turned to the 8tate legislatures. This Association must free its mind- from cant and tear off the mask of the insidious purpose of unions, which have become absolutism and which de fies the laws and repudiates the authority of the nation.

The car builders employed at the Lo cust Point shop of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad went on strike at 9 o'clock this morning. The strike was in sympathy with the machinists, who are on strike, and at the same time they have a grievance, as have the ma chiniats, on account of the inau guration of the piece work sys tem, and which they have been rebelling against for some time. (There are 125 men out of a pos sible 130.at Locust fomt.who . walked out this morning. It was stated this morning that the Curtis Bay shop will go ont tomorrow morning..

They claim that the piecework system hss so reduced their wages thst it is with the utmost difficulty the men- caa earn $1.50 per day, ana ofttimes have to work fifteen hours to ac complish that very low scale sf wages. - w or admirers. today.''
