THE COTION MILL RIKE, The long expected strike in the New England cotton mills bas been Partially inaugurated. Reductions in the wages of the opeiatives of the cotton mills we, nto force Monday, 10 per cent. the wages of nearly 125,000 operatives and affecting almost directly 500,- 000 people. The reduction was fol- lowed in some districts by general strikes so that several thousand are idle, and it is thought that 50,000 or more may yet be drawn into the strike. The possibility of a reduc- tion has been discussed in the papers and in other public ways for sev weeks, co that it het anexpect ed, aud the sizike | deliber. ate'y ordered.

National Trit Veterans are doubtless sorely puz: zled to account for the present out- burst against pensions, which sudden ly and unexpectedly flamed out like a fire in the night. ‘There has alway been something very mysterious about these raids on the pension sys- tem. Every timethey have occurred in all the years since the war, the have burst out so suddenly, and been taken up so quickly all over the country, a3 to indicate to close ob- servers that they have been carefully planned beforehand, and the train laid ready for fi Ot course there # been a continuous sputtering fire on pensions kept up by ill-conditioned papers north and south, representing the hatreds and apimosities of the rebellion, But every little while there is, without ap: parent rhyme or reason, without any exciting cause whatever, a tornado of abuse and defamation of the pen sioners and pensions will start iu the New York papers and sweep through the country. Inside of a week cer- papers from Boston to San Fran- be teeming with the sathe uptérly untrue and misleading “tig ures,’’ their cerrespondents at Wasu- ington will be sending’tem columns of downright falseboods, and their editorial pages will be filled with the veriest rubbish, presented as tions as to the end of the world, Of course, all the smaller papers, that take their cue from there, will hash over their malignities aud mendacities according to their severa ilities, In the days before Mr. Cleveland was elected the last time it seemed that these periodical raids were ganized and maneuvered by the New York importers, who saw in the pay- ment of pensions a use for the reven- ues derived from customs, and their object in breaking down pensions w to pave the way for free trade. ‘Then the Enghisl-toadying New York Evening Post and Times, the vena!
