Not only has the formation of the

between employer and employe, be-

but families have been divided by it.
In the Granite Mills J. came upon two
cases of this. One was mother who
went to work on Monday with her two
children. Tuesday night unknown to
her they were pursuaded to join the
union and are today idle and walking
around in their best clothes, while she
is working at the looms for a living.
The other case was young woman,
who, with a sister, has to support an
invalid father. For many years they
have been working in the mills and
living happily together, but last night
her sister went out to visit a neighbor

the resolutions of the miners convention.
They were all willing enough yesterday to
amend their notices to conform to this
demand, but today they seem to have
undergone a change of heart, and only
one operator of any prominence would say
outright that he would make the modifi-
cation. They say it would be humiliating
for them to come out with an amendment
to their notices.
AS one prominent operator put it: 'The
modification would serve but one purpose,
and that is to crafty a whim of John
Mitchell. We don't propose to waste any
energy bowing and scraping to Mr.. Nit
chell."
The Connell Coal company is the only
one to send out the amendment to the
notice. No other company would even
admit that it intended to do so.

The Guilford Land and Investment
Company is new enterprise at High
Point.
In Lincoln, Neb., Mr.. Bryan's home, last
night, Chairman Hanna made a most
bitter attack upon the Nebraskan be-
cause of Mr.. Bryan's charges that the
Republican party is seeking to win by
bribery. From the tenor of his remarks
Mr. Hanna seems to think-and no doubt
he is the Republican party.
and therefore takes Mr.. Bryans state
ment as an attack on himself. In the
course OF his remarks he said that Mr..
Bryans charge was as false as hell, and
that the man who made 1t was unfit to be

Croker Worlds Greatest Man.

Rochester, N. Y, Oct. 19-Mr. Bryan's

text. After reading the statement, Mr..

ing Governor Roosevelt and Senator Han
ma and Senator Platt by making such a
comparison. At the last meeting, Tues

This is the fourth great meeting of
the series of Tammany ratification meet
ings, and in view of the immense attend
ance am prepared to say great is Tam
many and Croker is its prophet

THE efforts of the mine operators
to patch up truce in Pennsylva-
MIA until after the election by the
offer of a 10 per cent. advance in
wages has had no effect on the
strikers. They are demanding
their full rights and settlement
of all grievances before returning
towork. The time is critical for
republicans and every effort to
infiame the strikers to violence
and thus put them in the wrong,
but they have failed most signally.
Nothing remains for the operators
now but to permit the strike to
continue and injure republican
prospects or to accede to the just
demands of the men.
