Another big striks Is on among the
garment workers of New York city. The
position Of the strikers Is thus graphi-
Cally set forth by Joseph Barondess In
the New York Evening Journal:
about 1000 men and women, pale
faced, sunken eyes, ragged and in every
other way miserable, have gone on
strike, and about 10000 more garment
makers, comprising coat makers, pants
makers, etc. are to follow. The public
gets somewhat accustomed to these
strikes, and they are known as the an
nual outing Of the tailors.' But there is
deep economic study behind these
strikes. AS a rule the sweat shop vic
tins work extraordinarily long hours,
stitching and stitching their lives away
for the privilege Of keeping body and
soul together that they may be enabled
to continue to work just as long as their
services are required. Did this question
ever suggest itself to you? How does it
happen that these people rebel all of
sudden and compel their employers, by
concentrated action, to accede to their
demands? Il is because this is the law
Of human nature There is only certain
quantity Of patience within a human
being, and when this quantity Of pa,
tience gives out that Is the time resist
ance begins.

Congressman 0verstreet, who is Secre-
tary of the Republican Congressional
committee, has returned from tour OF
the West and he thinks he has every
thing fixed. He says:
"All through the West and central
West the result Of the war, following the
success Of the protective tariff, operates
to put the people of the West and CEN
ira! West in good humOr toward the
Republican party. The States Of Kansas
and Nebraska, where Popullsm reached
such high-water mark in 1896, are swing
ing back. l think there is no question
Of Republican success In Kansas. When
one county, like Sumner county, in Kan
saE, received more than $3,000,0O0 for
wheat alone, 1t is easy to see how Pop
ullsm gives way to Republicanism. This
is true throughout the State of Kansas,
aud feel quite confident of success in
that State and very material gain In
the number Of Republican members of
Congress-"

The more one investigates the misery
and wretchedness which brought about
the great strike of wOodworkers In Osh-
kosh, the greater becomes the wonder
that the struggle was so long delayed
Every device known and unknown has
been used in the effort to crush the spirit
of the workingmen and make them pill
able tools in the hands Of their masters
There is no reward for faithful service
Men who have worked in some Of the
mills since they were opened are among
those who are made to bear the heaviest
burdens, placed upon them by their en-
ployers. The man with the greatest num-
Der OF children Is in the worst position.
No matter how hard he struggles 70 feed
and clOthe his little ones on 81 or SLIPS
day, he fails to accomplish his task.
AS the children grow up he sees In them
a source of income. When the Oldest
girl or boy gets to be IL or 13 years Of
age the father secures her or him work
AZ 25 to 40 cents a day in the mill where
he Is employed. There Is a law on the
statute books Of Wisconsin which linn
its the age at which children may work
in factories to IA years, but the strikers
say the laws In that State are not made
for the poor, but to benefit the rich.
Fathers who have been unable to support
their growing families, at the behest Of
the mill owners, swear that their chill
dren have passed the limited age.
