LABOR TROUBLES.

Complete Rupture at winsted-Further
Trouble Expected at Haverhill.
Winsted, Conn, Feb. 1.-the strike at
the factory OF the Winsted Shoe company
took a new and more serious turn yes
tcrday. and the rupture between the
company officials and the National Boot
and Shoe Makers union Is now complete.
President Tobin of the union, who ar
rived from Lynn, Mass, Wednesday,
held q conference with the company
officials yesterday and demanded the
recognition of the union, and that the
strikers be reinstated. This demand was
refused point. blank, whereupon Presi-
dent Tobin formally ordered out all
union men employed in the factory. and
those who were still at work obeyed.
The union will now formally declare the
Winsted Shoe company to be unfair,
and a boycott will be instituted. Nearly
so men are now out, and this includes all
OF the cutters, the absence of whom is
expected to prove a serious handicap to
the firm. Manager Swayne of the COM
pany has returned from Boston, where
he has been negotiating for men to fill
the strikers places. President Tobin
has gone to Philadelphia. An organizer
will reach here in a few days from North
Adams, Mass, to keep the strikers In
line.
Brockton, Mass, Feb. 19.-From ap-
pearances at the present time the labor
troubles at the factory of T. d. Barry &
Co. are not over. The shoe workers have
held nightly meetings this week, atwhich
consids srable enthusiasm was evinced,
and sterday Secretary Williams OF
the Lasters' union and Secretary Nc
Sherry of the Edgemakers' union called
upon Mr.. Barry. After an hours con-
sultation they retired. but refused TO
say anything whatever regarding the
conference. They did say however that
another meeting will be held with Mr..
Barry. lust what the difficulty is the
leaders will not divulge, but II is possible
that the questions at issue may lead to
still further trouble.

PARTISAN PREJUDICE.

How far partisan prejudice has gone
in Kent county Is told in commune
cation on our first page, clipped from
the Dover sDelawarean. y The article
ii written by Democrat whose finer
sense OF the amenities OF life has been
touched. ssFarmer,' is evidently a
gentleman first and party man second,
and be has been made to feel the dis
courticies which he has met because of
the feeling towards the party of which
he is member. Presumably he does
not sustain the action Of his party
associates in their extreme unfairness
but party feeling is so high that in
society and In business he has been
made to feel it. THIS is great pity.
Il is almost il not quite as great a
pity as the partisan acts which created
the feeling. There is danger to popular
government when neighbors are dis
courteous towards each other socially
and in business relations because OF q
difference Of political faith. Such
things should not be; nor should cleo
tions be stolen by force nor legal
techniealities. There is danger in
both. If the real offenders, the men

THEIR PRIMARIES.


"Although this (Smyrns) is ssupposed to-
be hotbed Of Addicksism very little inter-
est was taken and only 4S votes polied.
This is certainly strong contrast to the
claims made by the Union Republican
leaders that the Union Republican
voters of the hundred were very bitter in
their denunciation of the way the Regulars
were recognized by the National admins
tration and if fopportunity were given them
the protest would be very emphatic. =
Clayton Call.
Here is an unprejudiced report and
it fairly illustrates the situation. 1t
proves conclusively that it is the Ad-
dicks leaders, many Of them in the pay
Of Mr.. Addicks, who have made all the
fuss about the necessity for a conven-
tion, sc. The people are not stirred up.
over the matter, not even in Smyrna,
the s'hotbed of Addicksism,n as but 48
votes at the primary shows. In many
places where the Addicks vote was quite
large last fall there was not enough in
terest to risk popular vote. 1t seems
from reports that in more than half the
districts there were no elections, merely
a caucus of few of the leaders where
they constituted themselves delegates
to attend the Convention. Should a
Convention thus constituted represent
the Republicans of DelaWare2 It does
not even represent the vote cast by the
Union Republicans last fall; in fact it
is plain denial by the voters of the
claim of the Addicks leaders that q
convention should be held. It is slap
in the face of the men whose only ap-
parent object is to stir up strife, to
further widen the breach in the Repub-
lican Party. Republicans should study
the action of the Convention as from
the standpoint Of their primary cleo
tion, since in great measure it is a
convention Of self-appointed delegates
rather than representatives of their
party voters or Of the people.
In some places the old leaders have
been dropped from the delegate lists,
Mr.. Addicks and his man Kittenger
both being left of, presumably to give
s'tone'' to the Convention, but the Ad-
dicks contingent have their hands on
the machine and they propose to run
it. They have run it to the defeat OF
the Republican Party so far and the
purpose Of this Convention is to keep
it up. There are Republicans who are
acting with them who do not view the
matter in this light, conscientious Re-
publicans, but we believe they will see
matters differently when the mist
clears away.
