HIS RECORD.
RATHER MATTER OF FACT.
He Believed in Giving the Woman
He Marries a Good Time.

He is a young man whose unbounded
assurance has ever been his chief char
acteristic.
When he proceeded to talk to the
practical old gentleman about marry
ing his daughter he was evidently pre-
paredkor the usual question:
DO you think you can support my
daughter in the style to which she has
been accustomed?'
The parent spoke this phrase with the
air of a man who thinks he has uttered
a poser. The suitor looked him in the
eye.
Let's talk this thing over" he said.
DO you think your daughter is quail
fled TO make a man a good wife?''
Yes, sir. Her mother and / are both
practical people, and we have given her
a practical education. She cannot only
read Greek and Latin and play the
piano-she practices three hours a day
but she can get a good dinner and
make her purchases in market as in
telligently as an experienced steward.
Moreover, her abilities with the needle
are not confined to fancy work. She's
treasure, and we don't propose to
have any misunderstanding about her
future"
You We're asking me if I thought /
could support her in the style to which
she had been accustomed?
II was"
We'll, / could. But I don't propose
to. After she marries me she's not go
ing to practice three hours a day on
any piano, nor cook dinners, nor take
back talk from market people She's
going to have all the sewing done out
side the house, read what she enjoys.

HIGHLY. IMPORTANT.
Los Angeles Herald: 1t is reported
that the War Inquiry Commission Will
| probably make personal examination OF
| the scene of the campaign at Santiago.
| This will be necessary, it is thought, In
order to clearly comprehend the sltu-
| alton during the progress of military
| operations 1t is understood that the
/ President advises this course, and that
| he is urgent for a complete lnveStga-
! ton Of the blunders which led to need
| less suffering and slaughter Of Amer
lean soldiers. This particular feature
| of the war inquiry will be highly i'm
! portant if the investigation is search
! ing and thorough.
COLLECTING BILLS.
! Humboldt Standard: The Retail
| Grocers' Association of San Francisco
/ is trying to get candidates pledged to
| legislation that will make the collec-
| ton of bills easier. 1t would be sup
! posed that grocers in selling their
/ goods would proceed on business prln-
ciples; that is to say, sell only to those
who make it a point of honor to pay
their bills The kind of legislation pro-
posed by the Grocers' Association would
! be a revival of a condition that was
present in England half a century or
| so ago and which was abandoned as
worse than folly.
| NOT SIMPLE-MINDED MEN.
Oakland Tribune: The man who
thinks that the California farmer is
smple-minded, now-nothing indi-
vidual who will buy gold bricks and
green goods" on sight if he only has
the money, will quickly change his
opinion if he takes in a session of the
| State Grange A more intelligent,
broad minded set of men it would be
hard to get together, and their able de-
bates on the live issues of the hour
| show that they are abreast of the times
in every way.
CAN AFFORD TO WAIT.
Santa Rosa Republican: Now the
! patriotic people Of this country can al
| ford to await the verdict of the jury IN
this case. They will make mistake
| to do otherwise. The facts and all the
! facts will soon be before the commits
| sion and the people. Then the commits
sion and the people will reach the same
! conclusion. Then the verdict will be
an intelligent one, founded on the facts
| in the case Until then judgment
should be suspended except in the Of
fees of sensational newspapers.
HIS RECORD.
San Jose Mercury: When Mr.. Ma
guire's political principles and his pub
! lie record are discussed by the Repub-
| ican> press. he declares that he is be-
ing personally assaiied. The Repub-
lican press has made 10 personal at
tack upon Mr. Mcguire. but the Rec
ord Union says his record as an OFF,
cial and politician is assafled, because
it is vulnerable and because 1t proves
that he accomplished nothing in Con-
gress, secured the passage of no really
material bills and that his greatest
efforts were devoted to the advocacy
of the single tax fallacy.

20 the Bitter r ld,

Marlboro, Mass, Nov. 17.-There was
pleasure manifested at labor headquar-
ters last evening when it became known
that William Inskip. head secretary Of
the International Boot and Shoe Work
ers' union of Great Britain, had been
apprised of the labor situation here, and
that he would time his leaving England
so that he might appear here Sunday,
Dec 4, and deliver an address before the
strikers. Secretary Inskip is a delegate
to the annual convention of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, which will next
month hold it's annual convention at
Kansas City.
The money question is now receiving
the most serious consideration at the
hands of the members of the joint coun-
ell, and ways and means are being de-
vised to secure funds to aid the strikers
in case the strike is a prolonged one and
assistance is required. 1t is divulged
that the situation here will be brought
to the attention of the American Fedora
tion of Labor at its annual convention,
and that it has ALREADY been impressed
upon the mind of President Gompers.

asking the calling of q mass meeting,

Marlboro, Mass, Nov. 16.-The salient

the strike every union worker in them
Therefore at those shops quietude reigns.
The effect Of the strike is commencing

STRIKE IN EARNEST
Twenty-Six Hundred Workers
Idle In Marlboro.

Seven Shoe Factories Involved In the
Observation-Disclosures Much Worried,
and Hope For a Speedy settlement.
Marlboro, Mass, Nov. 15.-The great
strike in this shoe manufacturing town
has already taken on serious aspect
to each workman Of the thousands who
have left their work with the idea Of
correcting either a real or imaginary
wrong. Last night, as the union men
met at their several headquarters, there
seemed to be- a firm determination to
make a long fight.
The strike was directly due to the de-
cision Of the firms named TO conduct
their factories without recognizing the
shoe workers organization, an act, the
strikers claim, which would eventually
lead TO lower scale Of wages and the
general generalization of the industry
here, while other factories, ii is believed,
would probably take similar action pro-
viding the attempt of the three firms is
successful.
At present it is impossible to tell wheth-
er any of the other firms will declare
war on the unions. A number Of them
will probably refrain from interference
until the present struggle is settled.
The cutters, stitchers, laSters, sole
fasteners, treers and other unions who
accepted the action Of these three firms
as a declaration of war on the shoe work
ers' organizations at once began to pre-
pare for a contest. Meetings were held
last week and Sunday, and measures
were taken for strengthening the unions

Tobin of Boston. president of the Boot
and Shoe Workers International union,
General Secretary Treasurer H. A.
Eaton and other officers of the general
organization, who are in the city, with
the secretaries Of the local unions, en-
gagged yesterday in conference with the
three firms. They could not secure any
compromise or any concession from the
manufacturers. and late in the forenoon,
the council ordered strike at the four
factories of the S. H. Howe company,
two factories of Rice & Hutchins and at
]. A. Frye & Co.'s factories. The en-
ployes, numbering about 2600 in all, were
ordered to leave their work at noon.
report had been circulated around
the city that the merchants would refuse
to give credit to the strikers. William
H. Hall, president Of the Merchants as
sociation, in response to an inquiry, said
they had taken no action in the matter
as they regard it as family quarrel, and
all they wish is for a speedy and peace
full settlement.
The manufacturers say that they have
been forced to compete against the low
prices in New Hampshire, and especially
those in certain parts of New York
state, and their action in opening free
shops has become necessary for their
own protection.
