dered by the union, but yesterday, as soon
as the looms started up, dissensions arose
and tho weavers began to talk strike.
A meeting of the weavers In the old
mill was held, and word was sent to the
new mill that n strike was on, and the
weavars. there were asked if they would CO.
operate Word was quickly returned that
tho new mill operatives would stand by
the old.
Then the 1900 weavers marched out
through the gate. A consultation was
held in the street and it was decided to
hold a mass meeting In the afternoon.
After the weavers went out the most in
tense excitement ensued within the mills.
The ns1t action was the going out Of
the operatives of all the rooms. A fair
estimate showed that 300 persons were
out

to me, and do not see as l can say any
thing regarding the strike"
Mr.. Weeks stated that if nothing re-
garding coming back was done the mill
would be shut down by tomorrow night.

Lift Rim UP, Kick Her Down

An exchange publishes the fol-
lowing as q part of the unwritten
history of every community in
America:
A woman trusts and is betrayed.
To her betrayer the hand OF every
saint and sinner in the community
is held out and the world smiles at
him in thanksgiving at one faint
'sign Of repentance. 70 the woman
every face bears q frown of hatred
and against her every hand is up
lifted, an exile from home, an OUT
cast from society and a Target for
every vile tongue Of slander, she
struggles along friendless and an.
forgiven, even though she may re-
pent in sackcloth and ashes and
water her couch with tears Of
anguish and remorse for years to
come. The doors of the church
are turned against her, and the
saints who sing the songs of thanks
giving at the return of hor betrayer'
draw their robes about them and
pass by on the other side when she
seeks to approach the mercy seat.
But He who said to the outcast of
centuries ago "Go and sin
no more," take notice of these
things and rejoices more over the
Of one unfortunate than
over the ninety and nine who strike
her down every time she seeks to
regain her lost estate. Forgive and
ye shall be forgiven"

Carlisle Always q Democrat.

The announcement that Secre--
tary Carlisle would incontinently
leave the Democratic party ana
vote the Republican ticket il the
Democracy should adopt platform
inimical to the position of the Adj
ministration on silver did not create
profound alarm. A comprehensive,
anequivocal denial has come from
those fully authorized and qualified
to speak for the Secretary. He
will remain Democrat, even il
his own views as to public finances
fshould meet with severe rebuke1 at
the official hands Of his party; he
will be firm in Democratic grace.
Mr.. Carlisle has an analytical
mind, and has III an eminent de-
gree the faculty Of looking ahead.
There il rem irkable development
In his perceptive bnmp. He
doubtless recognizes the fact that
the circumstances which brought
the Democratic party into existence
were formative in perfecting our
system of government that the
reasons for maintaining it to this
day are eloquent for its existence
in the future. It is not q tenn
porary organization, to give VENT
merely to a line of opinion on
questions. Last year
and for year or two prior to that,
the tariff was the engaging topic.
Presto, change. The tariff is q
back number. Now money
TIN eatens to set the political pace
for 1895 and 1896. But it is
tariff nor money that gives
evidence to parties through the
generations.
If Mr.. Carlisle meets with de-
feataor rebuke on. = question which
is splitting up both of the old par,
ties in an unceremonious way, he
will stand ready to fall back on
cardinal principles, of which there
is always plenty He will be at
home in the discussion and presen-
tation Of abstract doctrines of
Democracy. The people are usu-
ally the happiest and most pros
porous when practicing politics as
a pastime rather than a vital fac
tor in material affairs. The best
times are those when the parties
have nothing to dispute about but
the Offices. Then the people elect
