THE KNTGUTN CONVENTION

II is singular that the one aim which must
rule the deliberations of the knights OF Labor,
if they are to attain a real and lasting success,
is the one which is not most rarely mentioned
in the talk of prominent leaders among them.
The one thing to be desired the one thing
which the workers should attain if possible
at almost any sacrifice. is harmonious cooper
alton between employers and employed on a
basis of Justice to both But the workers
appear to think that they arc IN perpetual
and necessary antagonism to employers, and
can secure Justice only 10y hostile action. Mr..
Powdcrly more than once has given expression
it is true, to a different conception, but his
declarations of theory have not always been
easily rcconcilcd with the practices Of the Or
ganlzaton.
Labor and capital are partners in spite OF
themselves What hurts one must inevitably
hurt the other 1t is not for the interest Of
labor in the long run to have capital ILL
rewarded. timid or reluctant to undertake new
enterprises When capital is in that state.
labor is never well employed or well pad.
1t is not for the interest of capital IN the long
run to have labor Discontinued, sourcd, unwlll-
ing and indispoScd to seek the prosperity OF
capital The work done 10y such labor rarely
paws either Of the partners. Tho one thing
necessary for both is to find means Of securing
harmonious cooperation on terms Just 10 both.
1t may not lc possible consistently with this
end for either labor or capital to obtain all
chat it desires Some sacrifice Of feeling, of
selfish interest or of prejudice may be necessary
hy either or 10y both But neither can attain
any real or lasting good without it, and no
organization is for the good Of either that Is
so conducted as to prevent that unity Of pur-
pose and harmony Of interest. Unless the
convention of Knights of Labor helps to pro-
mote that harmony, it will hurt and not help
the cause Of labor

ENGLAND AND me B1LKAN

There is not the faintcst echo of Jingolsm
in the British Governments Balkan pocy.
Lord Randolph Churchill during the closing
week of Parliament explained that the ann
of the Ministry was TO MAINTAIN III an cHclchV
form the concert of Europe, with view 10
the preservation of peace. This IS tho 'am'IfH
formula employed 10y Lord Granville and MI
Gladstone IL hundred times IN dealing win inc
Eastern Question. In his speech on SaiurdaN
NIGHT at hartford the Chancellor OF the EN-
chroucr confirmed the impression that the
Tory Government were acIng IN The balkan
crisis precisely as a Libcrai Government would
do Their sympalhics are strongly enlisted on
the side of Bulgaria. but they will AVOID a
unlicv of isolated Intervention and endeavor to
pivc effect TO the concerted action Of Europe
Lord Beaconsiield, if he were alive. would re-
vive the old tradition. or rather superstition
about Cons antlnOple as the geographical
centre of the British Empire; he would adopt
an aggressive policy III resisting RUSSIAN Gu
croachmcnt in the Balkan and in the present
feverish condition of Europe, when all the great
States are drcadmg war and momchlar1N
expccting it, the effect Of his diplomacy woud
he to produce panic throughout the Continent.
Lord Bcacnnsiield successors have completely
Reversed his policy OF meddlcSomc intervention
in the Eastern Question. They are as sober
minded cautious and conservative as LORD
Granville would he in the same circumstances.
Balkan affairs meanwhile are rapidly APP
preaching a crisis. The Grand Assembly,
which has been summoned TO meet at Sophia
before the middle of this month for the election
Of Prince IS almost certain to prove an UNI
manageable instrument in Russian hands.
General Kaulbars has adopted a dctatonal,
unconciliatory course which has inccnscd The
bulgarian people The Assembly Will be
sw;yed by fierce national hostility to the
Northern Power which has made itscll 50
offensive and insOlcnt by its arbitrary demands
and decisions The Regency under the pressure
Of Russian dctaion has complied with many
Of General Kauiarss requirements and has
virtually abandoned prosecution OF the
consprators against Prince Alexander. 1t has
pcrsistcd. however, in upholding the consiltu-
,ional rights Of the Assembly and has demanded
guarantees that The independence OF the country
will not he violated The election of a Prince
in these circumstances cannot be dictated from
81. Petersburg Whoever is known TO 10 the
Russian candidate will be defeated. so IN
eyitable is this result that General kaulbaiS
is apparcntly making himself as offensive as
possl ble in the hope of provoking hostile de-
monstratons from the Government or the
people which may serve as pretcxt Tor NIL

aNTLSILOON PROGRISS.

The anti-saloon meeting held last night in
Brooklyn showed plainly that the new move
mcnt has come TO stay, and that it appeals
strongly TO the reason and conscience OF a
large number of good citizens who never have
been able to see the force of third party argu-
ments. When the anti-salOon movement was
started, though its projectors certainly were
not professional politicians, the apprehension
was freely expressed by the Prohibition organs
that it would soon fall under the control OF
wicked oflice-seckers and manipuators. In
fact, nothing of the kind has occurred Inc
first and most marked effect OF the agitation
has been to bring to the front one OF the best
elements of the Republican party, and to mani
fest its conviction that temperance reform can
he had without abandoning the party and,
indeed is moi, likely to be obtained i'll any other
way. At first the politicians looked askant
upon the movement, not knowing what IL
meant, but the majority OF them already COM
pIchcnd its significance, and the danger OF
serious opposition to reform within the party
Is diminishing constantly.
As the whole subject is discussed more fully,
and lis various hearings bccomc clearer to the
people, it is apparent that the popularity Of
the new movement increases. One obvious
cause of this is the superior pracucaDllIty Of
what is proposed Hitherto all the political
programmes of the Prohibtionlsts have bcen III
the air. They have required temperance ad-
yocaies to accept The unthlnkablc theory that
the way to diminish drunkenness was to con-
solidate the power Of that Democratic party
which Is the bulwark of the rum power. Nat
ur,lly rational beings found this hard saying,
and as fact nine cnths Of them respectfully
declined TO act upon so wild and suicidal a
suggestion But the antl-Saloon programme
demands no qualification and no contradictory
action The proposal to control the Republican
uarty in the interests of temperance and good
morals is thoroughly Ineligible and as thor
uuchlv feasible Ii appeals with growing force
TO conscientious Republicans everywhere 1t
is The only proposition yet advanced which
holds out a clear hope of success III temperance
reform. The spirit displayed last night at the
brooklyn meeting proves how strong hold
the new ideas have already secured upon the
minds of many prominent members of the party
and indicates bcyond doubt the steady progress
of the ant-salOon movement.

Its representatives should have done better.

Mr.. Parnell has bcsought the Irish tenant
farmers to pay their rents TO the last possible
penny the Irish LOYAL Union has Just issued
an appeal to the landlords of Ireland not to
allow evictions unnecessarily and numerically.
Thus cxhorcd from every direction, to peace
and order. these two classes of unhappy Irish
men ought TO feel morally toned up and bound
in honor to make every possible effort to fulfil
their reciprocal duties. If they do this
honestly, evictions will be comparatively few
in Ireland this winter, agrarian crimes rare,
and "thc period of gloom which Mr.. Glad
stone said. in his speech yesterday, he hoped
might not intervene between now and the day
of Home Rule, will be avoided altogether.
