SILK MILL 8TRIKE. Employes Demand An Increase of Twen ty Per Cent for all Workers. It was stated In Thk Star last weuk that the employes at the Enterprise Silk Company's Mill in this place had made a demand lor an Increase of wnes, but they had not declared a strike at that time. Thoy are now out on a strike, and have issued tho following notice concerning their grievances with the silk mill company: "To the H'orVi'm i rojie in (Irnrral and Citizen: VVe.ithe employees of tho Enterprise Silk Company, find from good sources and statistics that wo are not paid enough for our daily labor, hy one-naif of what is paid in l'aterson, N J., and far less than some of the mills In Pennsylvania. "We resolved hy unanimous vote to demand 20 per cent for all wugo work ers In the different branches ot the in dustry. Added to the present scale of wages paid, would only mean 1 cent a yard to the weaver, H cents per UNI ends to tho warper, and 20 cents to AO cents per week to other employees. Also that our hours bo reduced to hours per week and the reinstatement of a victimized (Union) girl. "This demand was made on Tuesday, August 27th, 11101, to receive an answer on Saturday, August :i. ns.ii, to tax effect on Tuesday, September 3rd, l'.Htl, the result of which was a refusal of the 20 per cent and tho "." hours. Our com mittee on Wednosduy then asked for 10 per cent ponding an investigation of some of the mills in Pennsylvania, which was natly refused, and consider ing our demands are just we resolved to llirht a battle ror lartor and its prolit. "We find in our midst the same silk made here, and made in Paterson, sell lng for 11.00 per yard. The cost of making the same la about 20 cents per yard. Finding the profits of tho manu facturers very large, we appeal to you for your support, and aid us to victory and a benefit to our city In general. "We also find from authority that the firm has already advertised for help in different districts on the outskirts of Revnoldsville, therefore ask your ns sistanoe and to koep your children and others from joining hands with tho op pressor, when you will be benefiting yourself and all citizens concerned. "In Union There is Strength. Yours Truly, Committke." Enterprise Sdk Co.'i Position. Editor Star. Dear Sir: To make our position per fectly clear regarding silk mill strike, we request space to state that wo had a strike at one of our otner mills which the strikers, who made unjust and tin reasonable demands, have lost. We filled their places with new hands and In order to take revenge and out of spite, a few of them have come to Reyn oldsvllle to urge a sympathetic strike Falling In this, by repeating a tissue of falsehoods, they have induced our em ployees bore to make a demand for an enormous Increase in wages, which tho state of business would not allow to bo granted. It Is stated that we were paying less than other mills, while we know wo are ' paying as much or more. To prove this, we offered, as printed in your last Issue, that If it could be shown that our com petitors iu other Pennsylvania mills, who make similar qualities, pay more wo would willingly pay an advance to cover the difference. We even went so tar as to offer to pay the advanoe, when proven, from lust Tuesday on, to be paid as soon as inves' ligation was concluded, and the facts established. All of which was doclin ed. We appeal to all reasonable people whether thla was not a fair proposition We have no desire to pay less in Reynoldsville than our competitors pay, but we do demand that we be put on level wr.n our competitors, so that we are enabled to soil our production. We wish to treat everyone in our em ploy fairly, and are willing to pay the highest wages the class of goods we make In Reynoldsville will allow, but we must be put on a basis where we can compete; otherwise be would be un able to run the mill. We would urge the citizens of Itevn oldsvllle and all who may be Interested to investigate tnls matter and do us justice before it is too late. Enterprise Silk Co. Valuable Farm for Sale.
