The General Master Workmanship Of
the Knights of Labor is a greater and
more responsible position than that Of
President of the United States.
Our order teaches that the work OF a
man molding a brick, or pegging shoe,
Or setting type, or tiling the soil, or clean
Ing the streets is just as noble and holy
in the sight Of our organization as the most
exalted labor, and we intend to make it so.
There will be no boycotts. The name
will never more be used in our order.
There is no necessity for the boycott.
The very ends that would be reached
through the medium of the boycott can be
attained by the standing OF the two men
face to face and talking matter out, and
explaining their differences without max
ing fools of themselves.
We have an organization that includes
all trades. These people are al! told thai
the interest of one is the interest OF al!
That is the motto OF our organization, moi

interests of all classes are affected. Tha
is the most perfect government wherein
an injury to one is the concern ofall.

final report Of the Commission appointed

to inquire into the causes Of the depression
Of trade will soon be issued. The report
will announce that tho low prices and con.
sequent diminished profit constitute the
only evidence OF depression. There has
been greatly prolonged period of over
production, owing to the vast increase OF
wealth in the country. The Commission
does not believe that legislation regarding
labor has jured trade and deprecatcs an in
crease in the numbe: OF hours OF labor and
dminution of wages. The report distinct
" favors trade unions. The Commission
considers the recent failure Of agricultural

In connection with Samuel ]. Tilden's
death may be mentioned the following re-
markable editorial in this mornings .Suu.

have been written by Charles \. Dana
himself: What under the inconprehens-

much submission, and even complacencv,

that OF Calvary: The treason OF Benedict
Arnold was spoken OF with profound and
perpetual adherence for one hundred years,
because il was SO cruel after all the suffer

the cause Of human liberty. What was
the comparatively impotent and recover
able treason OF Benedict Arnold compared
with the preconceived, permeditated
and irremcdiable treason and crime of the

such chief as General Hayes, and Con-
gressmen, Judges and others aforesaid. If
it were not horrible and fatal, it would be
simply shocking and disgusting, Make
no mistake, electors and commonality Of
America! This is no little controversy be-
tween Samuel ]. Tilden and Rutherford B
Hayes. Tilden was entitled to the Office,
pay and patronage OF the President OF the
United States. If the American people
have not more sense than to allow such a
, thing, then they are unworty Of their Con-
stitution and privileges, and the sooner
they go to destruction the better.
