A HOUSE DIVTDED AGAINST IT
SELF

a HOUSE DIVTDfD AGAINST IT
SELF.
The belief Is fast spreading that the
knights of Labor organization is about To
go TO pieces. That there are two fac
tons inside the order il incontestable.
Each wants TO rule. Neither is satisfied
with the rule Of the other. Mr.. Powdery
may be accepted as the representative OF
one class, and Martin irons OF the other
Powderly is conservative; Irons Il
fanatic. Powderly would bring indus,
trial and social relief by working upon
and obllterating the causes of social and
industrial Ills; Irons would cure the dis.
ease by killing the patient. Powderly Il
a philosopher; Irons is a sclollst, Each
has following among the members OF
the organization The men who are for
peace stand by Powderly, The incen-
diaries, anarchists and the ignorant ele.
ment sustain Irons. One OF two things
must happen; The Powderly or Irons
faction must triumph and the other sub
miti or the organization must split, and
each faction cling to its leader.
Events that have happened since the
strike began make II clear that the organ,
ization OF labor Is not so perfectly sys.
tematic AS 1t appeared before the strike
began, Those who claimed for It a
system of local organizations tributary to
and controlled bY central governing
body, now find that while such system
exists in theory, It has never yet been put
IN operation. The highly intelligent cen.
trail executive board, with Mr.. PoNderly
as its chief does not control the action OF
The subordinate assemblies, and hence, rs
practical working element, capable OF
acting as 4 unit for the attainment Of thu
common good Of the members, the system
is far from completeness The present
strike not only was not ordered by the
chief of the order, without whose APP
prevail no general action should ever he
taken, but 1t has cone under his con
demnatlon as unnecessary and premature
Not only Is the strike without the sane
ton Of the ceatral executive, hut that
authority is dened by the subordlnates
when its commands do not please them.
Take the following dispatch from ST.
Louis as an example Of the weakness of
the head Of the order;

says The general committee Of the knights
has no power here, and Il cannot come IN
