Mr.. Powderly's letter to Chairman O'Neill
should be sufficient answer to those critics
who have been carping at the arbitration bill
lately passed by the House a device at once
fruitless and uncalled-for. The noted labor agi-
tator, who has abundantly proved his GOODNESS
in emergencies and his general good sense dur
ing the trying events of the last month, denies
that he visited any such sweeping censure on
the bill as common rumor has attributed to him.
He admits That he does not regard il as cover
ing the whole ground: neither does its author
neither do tine great majority of Representatives
who voted for 1t on its passage through the
House. But Mr.. Powderly, like every other real
friend of laber, is thankful for such an express
sion of a governmental body in favor of the
principle of arbitration, and recognizes the fact
that Ii was the best measure capable of adoption
at the time. Anything more radical would have
been defeated, in all probability, as savoring of
revolution Ii is pleasant to find Mr.. PowderIy
placing himself on record as believing that half
q loaf is better than no bread at ALL

The twenty-rfth anniversary celebration OF

The twenty-fifth anniversary celebration OF
the District Veterans would deserve more than
passing notice. even had it no claim to consid-
Grafton beyond the tact that the District fur
nished the first volunteer troops mustered into
the service of the United States at the out
break OF the civil war. But there are other rea-
sons why the three months men of 1861 from
the District of Columbia deserve especial credit
for their promptness in proffering their aid to
the government Divided only by a narrow
river from Virginia, the District had affiliations
with that state, social as well political,
which made il particularly painful to take up
arms against her; and the patriotism which
could boldly face such a severance of friendly
ties need offer better evidence of its quality.
happy conjunction OF events spared the
earlier organizations from the District the she'd
ding of their neighbours blood; but there Is no
telling how strong a restraining influence their
courage and energy may haveexerted, not only
upon the honorable foemen outside of the capt.
tai city, but upon the treacherous plotters and
incendiaries who abOunded within.

The application of the Philadelphia firemen
for admission to the Knights OF Labor will
raise in many minds a question, what would
happen il these useful public servants should
ever be ordered out on strike. The danger to
be apprehended from their going out on their
own accord, which might happen even under
existing conditions, is nothing like that which
would threaten whole city when labor
struggle within its borders had reached
such a pass that the governing power
in the strikers organization felt COM
PEELED to resort to extremes and suspend opera
tons in every department of activity. If the
f1remen of the country generally become
Knights. the police may be expected to follow
suit in time. Then the Grand Master Work
man and his councillors will have but to say
the word to produce a state of things which is
startling to contemplate. More than ever 1t
Will be the part OF wisdom for good citizens
everywhere to uphold the hands of wise
ecutive at the head of the workingmens giant
order, and aid him in his war against dema-
gogues and anarchists.
