Workers Want 20 Per Cent More
in Woolen Industry.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., June IS tR.--
Thomas F. Mcmahon, international
president of the United Textile Work
ers of America, said today that the
Executive Committee of the organiza-
ton would meet in New YORK shortly
to make demands on the woolen indus
try for a 20 per cent wage increase.
Failure of the woolen industry to
grant the demand within 10 Gays, he
said, would lead to another meeting OF
the Executive Committee TO consider
strike action.

HARRISBURG, Pa, June 15.-The

centers of industry for years, were
abolished by the stroke Of q pen to-

The history Of the coal and iron

was cracked heads and bruised

carry the implication that he is sub

foreign secretary acquired many years
ago the habit of injecting into his
conversations "yes, oh, yes, yes; yes,

in that group are, of course, school
teachers, highway and prison workers,
and janitors.
Such an increase would put school
teachers salaries back at their former
level and would restore three-fourths
of the other State employees forty
per cent pay reduction. It is estimated
that the bill would cost more than
SIS 0000 600 before the end of the fiscal
year on June 80. The measure is re-
troactive to Jan. l. 1885
Mr.. Cooper bill carried no reve-
nue. clause designed to raise the ne
cessary $5,000,000. Because of that
fact, the bill will be referred to the
committee on appropriations. which
will probably be appointed next week.
1T is necessary that all bills which
call for expenditure, but which carry
no revenue-raising feature, shall be
referred to that committee.
The appropriations committee will
consider the bill for a part in its reg
ular program, revenue for which is
drawn from the general fund, and, as
q result, the bill will not likely be re-
ported on before the very last few
days of the present session

those who voted for Johnson and Nc

Iof much better committee assign

that the speaker always gives first
preference to those who voted for

defeated candidates.
However, it is generally conceded
that an intensive effort was made bv

members of the house for Lumpkin.

ABOUT 80 votes, according to most es-
Inmates. For present indications are
that there are at least 35 house mem
perS who are greatly opposed to the
sales tax and will do everything pos
slble to get it repealed But the
swing towards the Johnson bandwag-
on was so pronounced here Tuesday
that a great many of these decided to
get right" and climbed on.
In spite of all these considerations.
however, it is being conceded in most
quarters here today that the election
of Johnson, long recognized as a
strong supporter of the Ehringhaus
Administration if not it's actual prefer
ence for speaker, was a decided vic
tory for the administration forces. 1t
is also agreed that if the vote by
which Johnson was elected speaker
is any barometer of sentiment in the
house, Governor Ehringhaus should
be able to command a good working
majority most of the time
Another reason the election of
johnson as speaker is regarded as
portending smooth sailing for the
administration is that most of the
committees that he will appoint will
be sympathetic towards the Governor
and his recommendations This is re-
garded as very important conside-
ration. Since all those familiar with
the legislative procedure here know
that in most respects the committees
are more powerful than the house or
Senate in that an unfriendly commit
tee may prevent bills to which it's
chairman and members, are hostile
from ever reaching the floor of either
house. If the committee does not kill

the absentee ballot only in general

Doubtless, say political observers,
there will be some counties who will
ask for exemptions and minor changes
in the law. These, however, will be
purely local measures affecting only
the counties involved
1t was reported early this week that
a petition calling upon the legisla-
ture to repeal the absentee voting law
was being circulated in Hoke county

Most of the sentiment for retention
OF the act cones from counties where
the party in control of the local gov

They fear that they would lose con-
