Whole would not be willing to admit
tfis. The government and politics OF
.he place are in the hands of the men.
The women are content that it should
BE. No Woman's suffrage movement
agitaGes or troubles them. They are
90 busy earning good money and en-
toying the fruits of their industry to
nave yearnings for the unatainable or
the bettering Of condition which is
wholly satisfactory to them. But
while they may not be consulted as to
politics and municipal government. yet
in all other matters it is their taste
and their wishes and their judgment
which are consulted first and if the
merchant did not follow such a course
he would be very apt to find himself
without business.
Need No Escorts.
The walking of streets in groups
and pairs or slngly unaccompanied by
tie male brute, is the rule. The eX
eption is the woman or women under
male escort. Indeed, there is sort OF
suggestion when you do meet the ex-
eeption as If it were the man who was
when young woman finds an evening
on her hands and a coinc1dental desire
witness a theatrical performance
she does not hesitate to secure two
seats with her own money and then in
70 honor to be her escort. that she not
'nfreuuently attends alone, escorting
herself or as the escort Of another girl
she has invited There are funny stor
les to tell the unwary stranger about
the beleaguered, eligible and present
,nie young man. who has to take to
he woods when show comes to town
because he cannot supply the demand
IN himself short of dismemberment.
There are so many and of such new
class that incredullty is the reward for
telling But what is plain to be seen
by the visitor is one feature on the
street. On pleasant evenings these
Young women throng the street, and
keep it, too, until the late hour and
they stand on the street corners and
lounge and talk, too just as the young
=nen do else;ohere. They don't spit
nor laugh loud. nor swear, nor make
alleged witticisms, as do young men
elsewhere, which is a great gain. Ana
ont let anvcne run away with the
ca that there Is anything immodest
CT improper in this. Standards are
not the same That's all. Therefore,
if any youngster of cCnceit from anoth-
er city should think that in what he
saw there was license for him to ad-
vance he would be disabused promptly
and quickly and his thoughts would be
confused and trouble would result.
The young woman of GlOversville has
not secured her independence and lib
erty by industry to let it slip from her
hands from want of proper protection.
There are industries other than
glove-making, but largey they are de-
pendent on or in existence because Of
the gloves. The leather mills. of

,o~ box factories Of which there are
six the glove tool makers, Of which
there ere five. and the glove block fac
toy are Of the dependent class. But
aTacH manufacturers are ereening in.
