EXTREMES MEET.

Oycrcautiousness probably does
as much damage as reckless haste in
side the ranks of Organized Labor;
at least We see an example reported
in the BopchcrzeiiURg which would
Indicate either oyercautlousness or
carelessnes Of the interests Of fellow
workmcn ON the part Of the X. of
l.. District of that section. II seems
that the bakers of Boston were
organized in two assemblies one
German, the other American. The
members Of the German assembly
are also members of the National
Bakers Union. Now. there was a
boss baker 10y name of Fox, who
discharged four men replacing them
with scabs, because they We're mem
bers of the Knights Of Labor. and
the matter was reported to the
assembly. The assembly appealed
to the District officers, who
declared they could do nothing more
than endeavor to persuade the scahs
to join the order. Tins extreme
conservatism caused much bad
feeling among the bakers of both
tongues, and it was decided to call
upon the secretary of the National
Bakers Union, This gentleman
recommended n good, solid boycott.

Union. and it iSeNpected that beior,

NOTES..

In another column a plan is sug-
gested that should be read and con-
sidered by those workingmen who
are tired of the old "cut and dried"
fashion OF taking the first steps in
the exercise of freeman's political
duties.
Another letter from our veteran
brother, George Mansfield, appears
in another column to-day, in which
he refntes a careless assertion of the
Horniay Ners, and gives All opinion
or two upon the subject of division
of profits.

caption of Honest Politics would

ton; and the recommendation of the
bakers general secretary was good
one. The boycott IS the civilized
method of procedure, costing little
save the natural energy which is
characteristic Of all good union men,
men, and tact and Judgment.
The restrictions upon the use Of
boycotting supposed to have been
adopted by the General Assembly
need never be interpreted in II man
ner that will cause injustice to come
to the lot of faithful members. A
righteous boycott is to be recon-
mcndcd-neycr prevented. Success

WHAT OTHERS SAY.


BEN ARE.
Signs are not wanting that many
of those who reaped enormous for
tunes from the American Civil War
are ready to plunge this country in
to a war with England. We are
treated to frequent dispositions in
the daily papers, more or less acri-
monlous, about the seizure of Amer
lean fishing vessels by Canadians.
The question should first be settled
whether the Canadians are right in
their action, but the daily papers
or those who control them -appar-
emily do not care whether they are
justified or not. The action of the
United States government would
seem to show that the Canadians
were in the right. otherwise it would
be hard to account for their apathy.
That being SO. it would be we'll to
enquire why such laws are permitted
to be on the statute books of Can
ada Why did not the government
of the United States make treaty
with Canada for their and our NUT
ual benefit. There was a treaty a
short time since. Why is there not
one now? If it was the fault of
either government, the people ought
to know it, and not be encouraged
to think innocent parties are to
blame.
The papers, again, have frequent
paragraphs about the arming and
drilling of organizations in the
United States, and the impression is
studiously given that these are with
| the object of forcibly annexing Can
Workmen's advocate. (New Haven, Conn.) 1883-1891, 1886-06-20

ada, which we are told is under Eng
fish rule, and only waits an oppor-
tmity to annex to the United States.
If this be so, surely there is no
necessity of going to war; Nothing
could prevent Canada being an
neyed tomorrow if her people con-
scntcd. She governs herself to as
great an extent rs any one Of the
States. She has home rule. She
does not pay taxes to England. In
no respect is Canada less free than
the United States.
Where, then, is the need of war?
Yet the very papers which condemn
Il strike of workingmGn because OF
its wastcfulness and foolishness,
would precipltate Il war against a
people whom they say are friendly.
II II strike is wasteful and vicious, II
war is much more so.-Lob0r Leaf.

LNCEuMS FOR EDUCATION.

New organizations have lately
sprung up and old ones increased
to such an extent that our hair
stands ut end us we wonder how We
assimilate all these unknown forces.
Many II one has been forced into IN
organization by the weight of cir
cumstanccs. Others flocked togeth-
er and poured into our midst be-
cause it grew epidemic; others again
joined our ranks from selfish pur-
poses, seeing the almighty power the
laborers represent if they stick to-
gether.
Thus Il vast multitude of men and
women have become linked together
by a common interest, many of
whom have never before given the
question the slightest thought. We
have Il mixture Of natlonaIities, of
race and sex. In every organization
there are bosses, leaders, factions,
and elements Of disorder. each of
which strive for supremacy. But
whether American, lrishman, Ger
man, Frenchman, Italian, or any
race or sex, whether unionist or
scab, whether skilled artisan or com
mon dav-laborer, whether radical or
conservative, whether Knight of
Labor or Socialist, we have all one
aim, one purpose and one ideal-the
emancipation from wagc-slavery.
We all agree that we want the full
fruits of our labor, a footing on the
earth-a universal co operative COM
monwealth. We only differ in de-
tails how to accomplish it.
And for this purpose time has
now arrived for education and en-
lightenment. We must establish
free libraries and free meeting rooms
with free platform in every town
where these questions may be thor
oughly discussed. Let us organize
Labor Lyceums all over the land,
either under the auspices of q X. of
l.. assembly, trades-union, the
SocaIistic Labor Party, or others,
but it must be neutral ground where
al outsiders are welcome. This
will eventually bring about the unity
of Labor, which We now 50 greatly
need.-LobOr LVceHm.
