MILL GIRLS GRIEVANCES.

The Bayonne strikers Demands Are
Reasonable-No Concessions Yet.
Everything was quiet this morning at
William MacFarlane & Co.'S. silk wind
ing mill on Avenue e, Bayonne. Except
a single deserter yesterday none of the
seven dozen girl employees who struck on
Tuesday morning had returned TO work.
Yesterday afternoon the strikers held
meeting in Germania Hall on Avenue ID,
Centreville, between sixty and seventy
of them being present. After discussing
their grievances they appointed Misses
Sadie Brown, Maria Logan, Anna OCon-
Egan, Julia Murphy ana Mary Kelly, four
doublers and four winders, a committee
to arbitrate with the management.
The committee was instructed to ask
for weekly payments, proper dressing
and toilet rooms and So per week for the
older and more experienced hands and
SO. SO per week for the younger and less
adept girls. 1t was also stipulated that
those who had been discharged, especi-
ally Miss Mary Ann Johnson, the fore
woman, who lost her place through her
sympathy with the girls, should be taken
back with the others. A written apology
was also demanded from Manager Arthur
MacFarland for having characterized
hem as tough lot" All consented TO
work from seven o'clock in the morning
until six o'clock in the evening, with half
an hour lntermission at noon, provided
they were granted a half holiday every
Saturday, and the older girls agreed to
each run an entire frame.
Manager MacFarlane at first refused to
treat with the committee and then said
that he would not receive it during busi-
ness hours. Finally he said that the firm
would only pay the old rate of wages.
He denied having aspersed the. girls and
demurred to the propositions for weekly
payments, Saturday half holidays and
the dressing and toilet rooms. He also
emphaticalIy announced that none of the
leaders would be allowed to return to
work
The committee reported to the meeting
and the girls unanimously resolved to re-
main out.
Arrangements were made for another
meeting this afternoon. There was much
dissatisfaction among the girls yester-
day because many OF them had not re-
ceived all they deemed due them when
they received their pay envelopes for
overtime during February. Manager
MacFarlane acknowledged that a new
employe had made errors in many ac-
counts, and promised to reetify all the
mistakes.

CITY ELECTION GOSSIP.
A few Candidates Found, But Little In.
terest Taken.

A PRESS reporter started out this week
TO find out something of local interest
about the election of city officers which
occurs next Monday.
Neither the republican nor democratic
committeeman knew whether party calls
would be issued for caucuses or not-hence
we suppose not.
Mayor Emmons, of the third ward said
some Of the boys wanted him to be a can
didate for another term. Did not care
much, one way or another.
j. Z Dowell present alderman from the
second ward was asked If he intended to
be candidate again, and emphatically
answered no.
b. f. Stamm, OF the first ward said
"Well. will not announce myself as
cand idate
"Think will be a candidate
o. S. Fulton thinks he may be candi.

hustling among his friends for support for
this office.
G.. g. Briggs, clerk, is in Pierre, and
will not bs u candidate.
W. II. Smith assessor, says he will not
be candidate for reelection. w. IL
Dunn is the only candidate so far
heard of.
c. N. yanHosen, city Justice, is in st.
Paul. HIS partner Mr. Clayton said he
did notknow whether Mr.. V would be a
candidate. Had not heard him say any
thing about II.
John Dale, said h0 woali probably be a
candidate for another term as marshal.
John 0Conuor says he wants TO be

Fellowship.
A Very Creditable Street Parade, and
Interesting Program at the

SATURDAYS CELEBRATION.

The Seventy first Anniversary OF Odd
Fellowship was the occasion for the first
joint celebration OF societies ever held an
Hand county. In more prosperous times
and less active season among farmers,
it would perhaps have been the largest in
the county's history AS ii was the cele-
bration was nicely planned and executed
demonstration, favored by providence
with beautiful day, and laudable de-
termination of all participants to COM
port their individual and collective parts
in manner creditable to themselves and
pleasing to their auditors.
THE PARADE.
The usual flag and bunting upon business
houses was an evidence. of general inter-
est to give the town gala day appearance.
The streets were lined with people when
the procession formed at the postoffice
marching south in the following order:
the st. Lawrence and Miller bands COM
bIned, the /. o. o. F. lodges. ladies or
carnations, St. Lawrence Engine Com
pany. Order of Modern woodmen, young
ladies broom brigade, G A. Rs, A, o. U
W., Miller Hook and Ladder Company,
School children and carriages.
AT THE OPERA HOUSE.
The program as advertised in last
weeks PRESS was carried out and receiv-
ed generally very favorable comment from
large audience. s. V. Christ presided,
w. II Miller read the address of welcome,
and was responded to by Attorney Grant
Fredricks,i of St. Lawi ence. A glee club
composed of Mrs. d. Loew, Mrs, NJ. E.
Williams, j. p. Cutting and L. W. Arnold
enlivened the meeting with vocal music,
Miss Nellie Shields at the piano. Galby's
orchestra also furnished some good music.
Rev. Horntng's we'll prepared address
concluded the afternoon program.
The Miller and St Lawrence fire boys
gave good display of the water throwing
power of the well ana engine, the visitors
carrying off the honors Of throwing water
farthest.
Another large audience assembled in
the evening to hear responses 10 toasts y
representatives Of the various organiza-
tions, all Of which were well received,
the large majority having the merit OF
briefness. They we're too numerous,
however, to give detailed report of each.
In every respect we may safely say the
celebration was a success. and it Is to ba
hoped it was the beginning of more fra
ternal feeling Of fellowship between the
orders, neighbors and the two towns.

Susan B. Anthony the Noted Suifragist,
And Rev Anna Shaw open the CAM
Paign.
Last Thursday evening at the opera
house was fired the first gun of what
promises 70 be right smart skirmish be-
fore election day rolls around. A good
ly number of citizens assembled to listen
to the eloquent Rev. Anna Shaw, Of
Boston, and the aged Susan b. Anthony,
the foremost worker in the woman's rights
ranks. The latter made a little informal
talk and left the evening to the more
robust Anna Shaw. The salient points OF
her discourse were:
"The suffrage question is a more i'm.
portant question than prohibition and
should hays been settled first, because
women are great moral forces and could
have assisted In it TO 50 much greater ad-
vantage. Objections have been made to
women voting because it robbed them of
their peach bloom, or delIcacy, or some
thing, to get into the political arena.
went to Kansas at the last election to see
how il affected them. The women went
to the polls--a space of fifty feet square
being dedicated 10 the polls and no
tickets -pedlers being allowed within
deposit their tickets, the candidates be-
ing very polite, so polite that accommoda-
ting candidates were handy and ready to
hold all OF their horses. SO the talk of
contamination, OF lowering women by en-
franchising her was not borne out bv facts.
A great deal of discomfort exists among
all classes throughout the country, and it
is fostered by depriving women of this
right, and their discomfort is instlled in
their children. Certain rights are given to
the people, and "If women are not people,
what are they ?" She cites many instances
of the inequality of the law, one was that
the Massachusetts law does not recognize
the ownership by married woman Of
even the clothes she wears. The case was
tested few years ago by married woman
losing her trunk while travelling and sue
ing the company for it's value, The
court decided that the case was not pro-
perry brought, as she had no title to the
garments she wore, they being her Lus-
bands clothes. All Of the better thoughts
of men tind embodiment in woman's
form, for Instance the goddess Of liberty
ami Justice. A noted anti suffragist
placed peHtentinIy birds, drunkards, in
zane people, children and women upon a
lofty pedestal that they might not be
contaminated by the slime of politics, and
at the close Of the war, when they wanted
to punish JEFF Davis most ignominiously,
they placed him upon the pedestal with
the women"
A permanent organization was effected
to conduct the compaign, III Z, Williams
beng made president and L. II. Burton
