UNIVERSAL LABOR UNION.

1t is reported that tn e Knights of Labor
look forward to organization of the labor
forces Of the entire world into five gen
ersl assemblies, subordinate to 4 supreme
assembly, composed of representatives of
each country. The scheme is wildly
chimerical and for sufficient and unan-
swerable reasons. The labor clements of
the United States, in all the forms of or
ganization into which they have entered
are antagonistic to the cheap and degraded
labor Of countries where the laborer is
ruled suhseryient, i'll paid and cheap
living toiler whose methods of life are
not in any respect in harmony with those
of the laborinS man of America. How do
the knights, for instance, propose to har-
monize in one grand international union
tsaying nothing Of the laboring classes of
China, the lower level laborers of Hun
gary and Poland, whom they so bitterly
assail in Pennsylvania, aud those of free
enlightened America, from which we
raise up citizenship and develop pillars
of State, leaders in field and in hall? How
can they expect, in such union, to assim-

such union is intended to elevate and
better the laboring man everywhere, it is
also true that the laborers ct Europe have
such wholly different staw1ards and ambi-
tons from those of the American wage
winner that there cannot be any union of
purpose between them concerning wages,
methods of procedure, ideas of civilization
or comprehension of natural and inalien-
able rights. Moreover, in this country the
labor elements cannot be crystallized into
one compact organization. IL interests and
ideas SO clash here as to divide the body OF
the workers into warning classes, how can
the Knights expect to succeed with a union
whose foundations are in the four quarters
of the globe?

their intent to mob the William Penn
works, looks beyond the passions that in
flame the striker. Wallanski is a Master
Workman as well as priest, but intelligence
has done this for him, it has shown him
that in this land coercion of one lot of
workers by another will not be tolerated,
that forcible attempts to compel to work
or to cease working will inevitably bring
upon those who make them fearful retribu-
ton. The education this man has as
priest gives him strength and superiority
over the ignorant Poles of Pennsylvania,
who forget that they are tolerated in a
land where their right TO strike is fortified
by the same reasons and laws that protect
the man who refuses to strike. There is
need for more Wallanskis and fewer ig-
norant Polish laborers in America.

THE local option sentiment in Wood
land is making itself manifest in very
forcible manner. Since the Supreme Court
has decided that local government has the
power, under the new Constitution, to
regulate the liquor traffic, precisely as it
has the power to enforce the sanitary reg
ulations, the question has assumed the
form of policy of municipal govern
ment and loses much of its sentimental
character. We find it, therefore, engaging
the attention of people who are not total
abstainers and who bitterly oppose pro-
hibihon. In short, it is now treated
mainly as an economic question, and as
such is being debated and acted upon
