Tbe cotton anitl labor organization mat-
ter has Tdached a critical stage and there
is no telling what will be the outcome iw
the next lew days;. The mill people have'
notified about fifteen that their services'
will not be needed any loogar than it
will require them to 'work out ths two

both agreed to give. It is sa?d that thj
mill has two men on the. road who bt

take the place of those who tbave joinet

arrived here and in nearly every instance
th"y htv jyiacd the uion befora g--.i?
to work. In tflie Went Durham mill
there are over two hundrod meinb tva ott
the union and in . -u,t Durham aboatl
forty or .fifty. These men say t is af
fight to the linish and that the litem be rs
will never sairrender. Those yao have
been diischarged will go to .yoik clsa-j
where, .and if they can find mo work, to!
do then those who remain "vMll support)
them and their families. There is somd
talk that a portion of the anlll.wil close;'
down and that all the union men 'will bu'
given their walking papers an-4 thoso
;who are not members of the organization
iwill be given work. These tactics, it is
isaid will -be kept tip until new men caa
;be secured to take the pla;es of thosa
who will go out on account of the union.
One of the 'leaders told me that the men;
do not want to-strike and,' will not havo
one .unless it is foiled unon them. This
same nan told me tha.t -a stike was
what the mill wanted as to get "publl
sympathy against the men. 'Every thin-a

.Wednesday '-
l Chicago, Aug. ll.-Mr. Bryan said to
day that he had definitely decided to at
tend the United Irish Society's celebra
tion to be held in Chicago August lo. .
He will probably remain in Chicago
until that day, when he will return to j
Lincoln. His only other speeches ber
fore the actual campaigning begins m
September will be at the notification of
his nomination by the Populists, Which,
is'to be held in Topeka August 23, and
his address at the G. A. .R. reunion itt
this city August 30.
After two days of constant conference
between the Democrats, Populists and
Silver Republicans composing the trb
partite national advisory committee, H
has at last been practically decided tha
it will not be wise to interfere in thi
Idaho imbroglio. The plan now adopted .
is to leave the settlement of the tight
between the f unionists and the non
fusionists to the Idaho politicians thems
selves "
Though the feeling that has growji
out of the labor troubles under the adi
ministration of Governor Steunenberf
has. become bitter in Idaho, yet it bj
said that there will ultimately be conn
plete fusion between the three partiei

ticket, including the nomination for Cott
