VOTED TO STRIKE
Spinners at Fall River to Join
the Unemployed.
This Will Force the Closing OF the
Majority Of the Mills in Town.


FALL RIVER, Sept 70. The Spinners
and Weavers associations both held
crowded Meetings till this morning ana as
a result 5000 textile operatives OF this
city are practically on strike.
The spinners he special generai
meeting in Carrollton Hall and unani-
mously voted TO strike. The executive
committee said that the strike allowance
would be reduced from 50 to "a per week,
and after the second week TO s3 until
further action.
The weavers association also held big
meeting this forenoon in Music Hail.
The weavers voted to continue the vaca-
tion until the old rates are restored, but as
they refuse to go to work for the present,
they are virtually on strike. There was
no debate at the meeting. The recon-
mendation of textile amalagamated COM
mittee that all operatives keep away
should an attempt be made to start up
Monday was adopted. The operatives OF
the King Philip mill who have been
on a strike for several weeks were
granted half strike pay for the last three
weeks. 1t was decided to appropriate
$1,000 week from the funds OF the union
10 be distributed among the needy mem
bers.
The strike OF the spinners will force
over half OF the mills TO shut down even
should TIE weavers decide To go to work.
The opinion is among the operatives that
the manufacturers will start in short time
at old rates, If the market continues to
improve las it has been doing. The op-
eratives. now working in the Seaconnet
and some other mills that are now run
ming will, il Is said, join the strikers un-
less they receive the old rate of wages.

THE DAY OF FATE
Primaries Held Throughout
the Ashland District.
The Machine in WiIlie's Hands. but
Women Praying for his Defeat.
RI me A.ocia,ea prsss.

LEXINGTON, KY, Sept. 15.-The polls
opened at z a. m. for the most holly con-
tested primary election ever known In
this or any Kentucky Congressional dis
trictl II not In the country. The candidates
for the Democratic nomination for Con-
gress are: -,
w. c. p. Breckinridge of Lexington; w.
e. Owens of Georgetown and Evan Settle
of Owentown, who have Tor months been
speaking at all points In the eight coun-
ties During the past few weeks the con-
test. has been very bitter and
within the past "a hours
charges have been made by candidates
against their opponents, which many pre-
dict will result In resort to the code OF
bloodshed OF some kind. The primary
election today will name the nominee but
1t is feared that 1t will not settle some
other issues. Wives, mothers and others
are apprehensive that those they love
may become involved in serious conflicts
before the polls close at p. m.
Some ladies are taking more active
part and are out electjoneering against
BreckinrIdge.
While there have been all sorts of move
ments against Breckenridge, he and his
friends have maintained perfect organ
ization throughout, and they lined up
like veteran politicians at the opening OF
The federal officers, distillers, railroads
and other powerful interests are with
Breckenridge.
All whom he has favored during his
ten years service in Congress
are fighting hard for him. Sena-
tors Lindsay at Frankfort, and
Blackburn at Versailles are both resi-
dents of this district and both are quietly
but earnestly working against Breckin-
ridge, but the ward and township politi-
clans are with the Congressman. AS the
returns from many voting. places
must be carried long distances
on horseback to telegraph offices the re-
suit Is not likely to be known before
Monday. The headquarters of Breckin-
ridge and Owens are both here.
Settles headquarters are at Owentown.
As the Breckinridge men have
the more perfect organization as
well as the machine they do not pro-
pose to sleep again until they know the
result. II is charged that they have used
the party machinery in the canvass and
will do so to the last. The
ruling of the district commits
sion in challenging those suspected
OF not supporting the nominee is keeping
many Democrats from the polls and il
also causing bad blood.
The fact that many bets have been made
on both sides Is also having a tendency to
intensity the bitterness.

HEARD IN COURT.
Next Week the Legal Mills Will Grind
Their CRISIS.

The Supreme Court opens Monday, and
litigati will be resumed with a rush for
the reason that there is more new busi-
ness than cversbefore at the beginning OF
a new term, and there are over 1900 un-
finished cases left over from the last term.
The first business for Judge Wilbur Will
be the instructipg OF the grand jury, and
there are over 100 cases on the list for SUBJ
mission to that body, although none of a
very serious nature.
About the court house itself the lawyers,
students and hangers on will notice some
innovati ions, the principal one being the
completion OF the court rooms, which
have hitherto been left untn-
ished, thus allowing for six
courts to be IN session simultaneously il
the press OF business demands il. And
the attending sheriffs will all be in uni
form for the benefit of strangers who may
want to know the proper person to ask

Little did we think years ago when pr.

To our personal knowledge from across the ocean, in far away England, they have learned of his skill and fame and consult him. We be- lieve with the doctor that truth, merit and honor always win. He stands at the head -a pleasant gentleman, an able physician and is recognized as the leading author ity in the treatment of all private diseases. Birmingham may well be proud of him.
