THE BETHLEHEM STRIKE.

On the subject OF the strike now pending
in the Bethlehem iron works the address
embodies a resolution to the effect that the
strikers should be upheld in their right TO
maintain their privileges as citizens of the
United States,
A long discussion was had on the
grievances suffered by the men at the
Bethlehem works anterior 10 the strike.
The subject was referred to the committee
on grievances, and the committee on
claims was entrusted with the question Of
the demands by the Bethlehem men on
the Association for support. Owing to the
weighty Importance which dsvolves on
the final adjustment Of the difficulty at
Bethlehem, 1t was agreed to draw without
reserve on the surplus funds at present in
the bands OF the Association to satisfy the
immediate wants OF the strikers.

The reading Of the Presidents address oc.

session. In substance. the report covered
the statistics relating to the disputes be-

the past year, including the North Chicago
rolling mills, In which an agreement was
effected in the adjustment Of the scale on
a basis Of tonnsge, the strike in the
Pittsburgh Iron Works last fall, where the
policy OF Cancellation was adopted by tue
men, and the present strike at the Beth
lehem Iron Works. This last trouble is
characterized as oLe Of the most vital issues
the Association has ever dealt with. On
the question OF strikes it charges that
they originate largely with manufacturers.
II crilicizss the neTtect OF the President
to appoint workingmen on the late Tariff
Commission; advocates the propriety OF es.
tablishing a national bureau Of industry
and organizing federation OF all trades
without interfering with the district trade

rnR suNMER SUSPENSION.

oae Of the most important Of the sugges-
tions is embodied iu 8 resolution that the
mills shalt lay idle during July and August
Of each year. This is supported by several
lodges upon the ground that 1t will prevent
an over supply Of the iron market and a
const quent reduction Of wages. The with
drawal OF the iron workers Of the associa.
tion from the steel workers is strongly
recommended. Other resolutions relate
mainly to the government OF the
society. Many bylaws were pro-
postd and some important changes
advocated. Among these gre suggestions
that any lodge suffering because u its ad-
hesion 10 thu association shall be aided by
voluntary subscriptions from other lodges;

AZ no CANDIDATES.


It is almost too early to speak intelli-
gently Of candidates. So many things may
occur between now and the time for hold
ing the conventions, that only prophet
can tell the result. The approaching win
ter will be hard on candidates. Frosted
feet and frozsn limbs will surely result; the
MANNED and disabled be many. OF all
those mentioned in connection with the
place at the head OF the ticket, perhaps E.
Boyd Faulkner, Is the only one vino has
formally announced his candidacy. He is
thought to be an aristocrat, and Is known
to be champion ot monopolies, at least sf
that monopoly which the people OF West
Virginia most dislike, the B. & o. railroad.
Z. Willis Wilson. OF Kanawha, Is recog-
mixed as the champion Of the people in their
q ht against monopolies and oppressive
corporations. He would be strong before
the masses, but the railroads OF West vir-
gina are great politicians and shrewd, and
possessed OF bar'l. My old friend and
partner, Ben. Wilson, has been spoken Of.
Now Ben, has some queer ways, but after
all he Is agenial, deserving man, and many
worse candidates could be named. John
W. Mason Is good and strong tnan. de
would make great race. He Is q big
man socially, mentally and politically. No
mean little spirit petpades him, and his lille,
public and private, is above suspicion.
Judge Loomis Is great man. Brown is
inclined to Incidence. i do not know
Haldeman: Evans, OF Berkeley, who Is
spoken Of for Auditor, Is an energetic, ac-
i've fellow.
