TO THE EDITOR. Sir, Under the heading, " Grievances of Railway Servants," in your issue of the 31st ulfc., I notice that the branch of the, i Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants t have passed several resolutions expressing : dissatisfaction of their treatment. Probably they have many grievances. I know some station masters and clerks have to work 12 and. 14- hours per day. It is not-my intention, • however, to champion their cause in any way; but I certainly think the Premier should compel them to register as a union,,"" and bring their grievance? before the Arbitration Court-.'

Hun%, April 1, 1905.
