Mr. POwderly requests from the press q
candid expression of opinion regarding the
discharge of certain workers because they chose
to join the Knights of Labor. The employers,
he affrms. had no other reason for the dis
charge, and were simply engaged in boycotting
the workmen and tying to punish them for
exercising their rights os free citizens. Mr.
wdcrly shall have ms frank and explicit an
answer as he can wish.
If the Knights of Labor had acted upon the
principles which Mr.. Powderly avows in his
published letters, no sane manufacturer would
ever have dreamed of dischargng men for
Joining that organization. Such an organization
of workers as Mr.. POwdery would like to make
the knights of Labor would be n blessing, not
only TO the men employed, but to all employers
as well.
But the Knights of Labor as Mr. Pow dcrly
knows to his sorrow, have not acted upon those
principles. Not to refer to conspicuous and
painful instances. Mr.. Powderly knows that his
tables are loaded with letters telling of strikes
begun without decent reason or any attempt TO
arbtrate, of strikes which are naked attempts
by an organization to dictate to employers, and
to prove its power in order to enlist more men.
He knows that hundreds of bOycOtts have been
declared and sustained by G. CARNATIONS called
Knights Of Labor many of them in direct
violation Of the law, and all of them intended
to RIB some free workers of their rights. lie
knows that his organization Il a whole has not
denounced nor disavOwcd these things, nor
made any attempt TO stop them. The fact Is
that the world is waiting with some interest to
see whether Mr.. Powderly himself can stay at
the head of the order after he has given TO its
members advice to behave as aw-ablding
citizens and sensible men.
The organization therefore means ore thing
in ore town, and another thing in another 1t
means one thing in one trade, and a different
thing altogether i'll another trade. Every
employer is bound to take it as he finds it in
his own town and in his own business.
Where the Knights of Labor behave as the
organization ought to behave, and as Grand
Master Powderly has tried to make it
behave, an employer is both foolish and
acting contrary to his duties as a good
citizen if he attempts to cOerce men to
leave or not to join the organization. Bat
where an employer finds the organization be-
having as it has behaved in thousands of cases
which Mr.. Powderly himself has felt compelled
to rebuke, the employer not only has the right,
but it is a public duty, to refuse to support,
encourage or in any way to countenance
perniciOus conspiracy against free laborers.
