tion and protection that they will protect
themselves against monopolies and pervert-
ing power; and that, being numerically su-
perior to, and potently Independent of, the |
cooperation Of any other class of laborers, |
they will prescribe them admission to the |
Order, and prohibit them from realizing |
the blessings and profits to be derived from |
combined cooperation.
That the two Orders may be more readily |
compared, their objects may be tabulated
as follows:

OBJECTS SOUGHT TO BE ATTAINED By THE
PATRONS OF INDUSTRY.
l. To secure cooperation amongst all
classes of laborers.

| remuneration for their labor.
TO- To secure social, commercial and po-
litical reform. To secure economy, purity
| and honesty in all social, commercial and
political relations.
Every one, evidently, will apprehend at a
glance the superiority Of the Patrons of In
dustry-the more just and nober views they
entertain OF the dignity of labor, and supe-
riority of the benefits they will confer upon
the laboring classes Most assurdly the
honest, hard working mechanic who is COM
| PEELED to exert every muscle, avails himself
of every shift, and makes use of every expe-
| dient to secure-not the conveniences and
comforts requisite for individual happi-
ness, social bliss, and domestic tranquility /;
that which elevates, ennobles, and inspires a
man that which renders home attractable
and life agreeable, but-those necessaries in
dispensable to the perpetuation of vigor,
health, and life-surely he is deserving of
concern, care, and protection as he who,
with unrelenting diligence, honest resigna-
tion, and wearied limbs, tagging muscles
throbbing head, and aching heart,
remnves the obstructing clay,
Winds the whole work, and sidelong lays the
globe"
Each is equally honorable, honest, and in
dustrious; and each has
Stout muscles aud a sinewy heart,
hardy frame, harder spirit"
In the organization OF the Patrons of In
dustry all those elements Of success, extern
sion and permanency which enter into the
constitutions of similar or dissimilar organ
izations have been diligently and carefully
scrutinized, and all those that constitute
the most efficient agents in the dissemina-
ton Of knowledge, fraternity, and mutual
benefits, as well as securing national wealth,
power, and prosperity, have been incorpor-
ated. Its motto is By Industry Ue Thrive.
In union it expects success. In secrecy il
possesses power. In right it has might.
It contends that the happiness and prosper
ity OF the masses is the true and only road
to the attainment of the highest national
glory.
BY combined corporations the Patrons
OF Industry, dealing directly with the pro-
ducer and consumer, are enabled 70 pro-
cure the indispensable necessaries and desir-
able conveniences of life without the inter-
yention of unnecessary, extOrtionate, consci-
enceless agents and middlemen, thereby
ameliorating the condition of laborers by
materially diminishing the cost of liveli-
| hood-by curtailing the extortionate profits
of unscrupulOus middlemen and agents
| But this is not all. By their cooperation
the Patrons Of Industry will be enabled to
protect themselves from the impositions of
unworthy servants, as well as TO procure
work for such of their members as may be
ont of employment
One of the avowed objects of the Patrons
of Industry, as it is probably one of the
clandestine objects of the Patrons of Hus-
bandry, is politics. The order of Industry
recognizes the cardinal principle of strict
loyalty to existing laws, and meek submis-
sion to commissioned power and legitimate
authority. ltstands opposed, in solid phal-
anx, to all kinds of insubordination and
misrule-the inveterate and uncompromis-
ing enemy of all individual persons, and as
sociations of persons, who attempt TO OPP
press the industrial portions of community,
with unjust and uneven burdens. Through
their constitution they declare: "As no
real or lasting benefits can accrue TO the
working men OF the United States without
political action, the Patrons of Industry
will aim to correct at the ballot box the
evils of special and class legislation, under
which we are common sufferers and victims.
The votes of the Patrons of Industry will
be cast for honest men, and we can find
them in our own Order. We shall not
need TO 60 out Of IT for honesty and ability
TO fifty represent MS in our Legislature or
in the National Congress. Men of all
shades OF political opinions can meet on
one common ground and act in political
concert, for we We will ignore party organ
isations II such do not give us justice, and
form our own party, whose basis shall be
justice 10 those who labor for their bread"
