WOMEN TAKE A HAND,
A Mixture OF Politics and Religion RrIHr
Them Out In Full Force.


LOWELL, Mass, Dec. For two months
past some of the clergymen Of this city
nave been conducting pulpit cruSades
against the Catholic church and making
claims that the church sought political
power and the control Of the schools. A.
a result the American Protective Associa-
ton has developed and taken a hand in
politics. So thoroughly have the women
become im5ued with the idea that they bs.-
gan to register in order to vote for school
committeemen under the impression that
Democratic supremacy ia this branch Of
the government botlesi great danger to the
public schools.

PROVIDENCE, Dec. 3-For the first time
since the inauguration of the big strike in
the wooden mill district matters have as
sumed that positive condition which war
rants the police in believing that the COM
ing week will see trouble. One week ago
the executive committee met the manufac-
turers, and rs result of the meeting il was
understood that the manufacturers had
agreed upon a scale of wages which would
be satisfactory to the operatives for the
present and that the several mills would
be started up Wednesday.
On that day the operatives were in readi-
ness to return to work at once, as they
had received notice of the scale of wages to
he paid. Yesterday the revised scale pre-
pared by the manufacturers was posted,
The weavers' scale showed a cutdown of IS
per cent, while the scale prepared for the
loom tixerS was also reduced
This proved anything but satisfactory
ana IS a result meetings of the strikers
were held, and it WAS almost unanimously
voted that the offer of the manufacturers
oe rejected. On Monday next the gates of
the several mills included in the strike will
be opened and the power started. Al Of
the strikers who wish to return may do SO.
Vacant places will I've filled with foreign
help.
The strikers at their meeting were opcn
in admitting that they would offer no OBJ
lection to any of the strikers returning to
work, but threatened violence to any out
siders who would venture to accept posi-
tions In view of this the manufacturers
nave consulted with the police, and rcgu-

from the enactment of the new bill and
