uniting, solidifying, are being driven
to radicalism by the operation of
uncomfortable circumstances inher-
ent with the present corrupt system.
There is no salvation save in the des-
trnction of that system itself; and
this involves rcyolutiOn-not neces-
Sarily Understanding, for it may be
accomplished by the ballot in the
hands of an intelligent people, pro-
vided the powers that be permit a
peaceful and bloodless revolution by
submitting to the inevitable quietly
and decently.

WHAT OTHERS SAY.

The Knights of Labor make a
great mistake in remaining members
Of the two old political parties. In
so doing they are fighting one an
other in the interest of their enc
mics. The capitalists have both the
old political parties completely un
der their control, and they chuckle
with delight when they see wage
workers and poor young men fighting
one another, some as Democrats and
some as Republicans. The true
policy of wage-workers and poor men
generally is to form Il party of our
own. The contest between the rich
and the poor is inevitable. Let us
make it political contest and fight
it out rs the citizens of a republic
should do-with our ballots. The
ballot is the most potent weapon
which the poor man posses. How
silly it is for him to use it, not for
his own benefit, but for the benefit
of contemplate politicians. II, H.
BeHSeH.

NOT APPLICABLE.

1t has been said that any man can
get rich if he has friends enough.
This is good logic in some cases, but
it does not seem to apply to the labor
press. Labor papers have more
friends, or pretended friends, than
Vanderbilt or Gould, and yet the
latter worthless seem to get along
somehow.
Perhaps the labor papers waste too
much time in trying to make friends,
and then expect 10 run their papers
on the product of their friendship,
