to remain out until the middle OF next week as there is
no work ahead for them TO do. The company are re-

unanimously passed


Resolved That the operatives of the Lonsdale Com
York HERALD for It's editorials and 20 Its
here Tor the honest fearless and truthful by
side OF the troubles well the side employers
during the late strike.


This has been a remarkable strike, differing from
many OF the strikes OF the day The help, who in
need OF aid from the Relief Committee, have had
general thing, too much pride to ask for IT, and
queny to work rather than be objects Of charity
Only few have come out boldly and said they wero
In want Again, their leaders, the
with those in Fall River, have worked with
out pay, have also their committeeman and COL
lectors They have persistenty refused TO hear any
proposition OF labor agitators from abroad and when
ever proposition has been presented to have outside
speakers, IL has been unanimously rejected This
morning word received from Fall River that tho
operatives at that place were in sympathy with those
here and were taking up contributions for them TO
tinue the strike Ii is reported that nearly 81
subscribed but will not be forwarded in view OF
the decision TO go to work Monday. Offers of aid
have also from other localities The balance ofthe
money raised here will be distributed by the Relief
Committee to those who likely to be in want OF
funds before the ncxt pay day comes around The
storekeepers inform that the operatives, rather
than ask for aid buying oatmeal and other cheap
grades of in order keep along until pay day ar
Surely their employers have spoken the truth
In relation TO their help-that they were among the
best that the country affords and had proved them
selves not only to be efficient workmen but had great
selfrespect for themselves and families
