LABOR REFORM PLATFORM.

We print to-day the platform adopted by
the National Labor Congress. We do not
approve all its features, and are very far
from approving the proposition to start a
distinct political party, on the issues in
volved in the labor reform movement, at
this dme. The leading. propositions we
heartily endorse, and indeed have advocated
them for many years ; but we look for the
amelioration of labor, to education, co6pera-
ton, and the compact organization of all
industries. Political action as it seems to
us, can better be secured through existing
agencies, than by the formation Of a new
party. We recommend, first, exhaustive
efforts to bring both parties up to the recog-
milton of the labor movement. If that
fails, we have no hesitation in saying that
we will heartily join third party to se-
cure the protection of industry from the
servitude, which now truly threatens it.
