Plain Talk of Organized Labor Against
the HecIers of Unions,

The Central Labor Union is not in the
hands of the heeIers by any means, hard
as they have worked in the interests of
their corrupt capitalist employers. There
is a fair prospect that some Of them who
have been umnasked will be kicked ont,
and some who still mai.tain a. innocent
appearance will be unmask ed, ahd fol-
low on tie heels Of their fellow heelrrs,
At the Session of the Central Labor
Union held Sept ,, the following reaoIu-
tions were presented and referred to the
Hay bume Committee. They speak for
Themselves
Whereas, The Excelsior Labor Club,

where they had been placed as part of
the unrepealed feudal laws Of England
Whereas, The Central Labor Union
appointed committee of ten to advise
with Organized Labar throughout the
State for the purpose of holding con-
ventlOn and in other ways bringing

the Cooper Union in favor of the re-
election of Grover Cleveland and cleo
ton of Allen G. Thurman to the presi-
dency and vice presidency Of the United
States as candidate of the rotten old
political party which supported the in
stitutiOn of Chattel negro slavery as it
did wage slavery, by allowing these in
famous and unconstitutional conspiracy
laws on the pages of the statutes and
penal code of this State-whiCh is also
the enemy Of Organized Labor through
its present and past alliance with organ
izcd capitalism, more particularly in the
Southern States before the rebellion and
which is still the same conspiring and
corrupt party of Doodle that it was in
the days of its favOrite son, Boss Tweed,
therefore be it
RcSOlred, That the Excelsior Labor
| Club calls upon the Central Labor Union
to eXpel from its ranks in accordance
with its Constitution, Delegate ArChi-
bald and all other delegates who by their
acts as professional politicians, whether
"demOcratic' or "republican, cast
odlum upon Organized Labor and
treacherousIy betray to the subsidized

sacred trusts coniided to them for bring
