AT ODDS.

1t has been an open secret for many
months past that the relations between
the Knights of Labor and the older
trade organizations have not been of the
most cordial and friendly character.
The recent communislic spirit manifested
by the Knights has transformed the cool
ness into open hostility. and the leaders
of the trade unions referred to, have de
cided to bring matters to an issue with
out delay. For this purpose they have
called II meeting of the chief executive
officers of their organizations to be held
in Philadelphia on the 25th OF this month.
and it is stated in the call that the object
of the meeting is to devise ways and
means to protect their respective Organi-
cations from the malice of an element
which openly boasts that trades unions
must he destroyed >" The Importance of
such an event is manifest when such
organizations as the Brotherhood Of Car
pen,ers. the Cigarmakers' International
union. the Graniremakers' international
union, the Iron Moulders union of North
America and the Federation of Trades of
North America rise up in opposition to
such a system of tyranny us leaders of the
Martin Irons type seek to impose upon
their followers; it opens the eyes of the
public to the real facts in the case. But
are not some of the unions quite as DIES
potic and unreasonable as their rivals2

IS MR.. PowDERLY RIGHT Or WRONG.

N1c York Sun: Mr.. T. V. Powderly,
in letter dated May IA, has asked the
opinion OF the press upon number of
questions. We believe he desires to pre-
sent the ideas he may receive in reply,
before an approaching convention of the
Knights of Labor for the consideration of
that orders representatives. The oues-
ton deserving the greatest consideration
relates to an employer who discharges a
workman for being Knight of Labor.
Twill you give your opinion on such &C,
ton as that" says Mr.. Powderly to the
Sun.
Our first answer would be that the en-
ployer was foolish. The question to de
eide in the employment of q workman is,
Does he know his trade? Is he faithful.
skillful, sober and industrious2 Beyond
that an employer need not inquire; and
as a rule, employers do not inquire. They
know that the best workmen are apt to be
members of union, and it is from the
unions, therefore, that they usually OBJ,
tain the labor they need. If one man
refuses to deal with another because of
disagreement with the latter's politics or
hobbies Of any sort, he violates the most
approved methods of business, and until
the world is governed by philanthropists
alone these methods will prevail
But much more instructive opinion
on this question, and one far more valu-
able TO he Knights Of Labor, would be
that of the employer to whom Mr. Pow
derby has referred. Did he discharge his
or through some passing within, If that
was the case, he will doubtless be happy
to take the discharged men back again
Did he discharge them because in his
judgment the interests of the organizes
ton and his interests clashed, and if so,
was there reason for that opinion
Would he he better of by continuing to
employ Knights of Labor, or would he
not be so well off, or would dscriminat-
ing for or against them make any differ
ence whatever What is the effect of the
organization upon the industrial world
These are the points to be considered
in the convention, and differences OF
opinion have already been recorded
Evidently the employer spoken of by Mr.
Powderly has thought it to his advantage
to employ men who were not Knights oil
Labor. From various utterances by Mr.
Powderly, we conclude that his view is
directly the opposite. Which is right
And, if Mr. Powderly is mistaken and
this employer of labor is right, what car
the Knights of Labor do to prove to him
that he is wrong2

ports that one hundred Mormon missions
aries are PROSECUTING in the South. and
that fifty more are expected there soon.
Some months ago it got to be quite a
habit of certain southern localities TO
drive these PROSECUTING seonndrels out OF
the places they visited, but they have the
perseverance of the hardened thief. and
nothing this side of death can discourage
them. 1t seems strange that, with some
leading Mormons in Jail and many more
likely to 90 there, the work of recruiting
should go right on. here and in Europe
and it is reasonable to suppose that a
people so determined to resist the govern
ment cannot be made to observe decency
and the law except through the virtue OF
force. What are We going to do with
the Mormons? The question is as fresh to-
day as it was before there was serious
legislation against them.

that America can successfully compete with
