How LABORERs WERE THREATENED
1t will be remembered that, during the last
Presidential Canvass, some of the manu-
facturers and capitalists told their employees
that if Cleveland should be elected that
they moulfi be uecessi.ated to cease opera
tion-, and that their employees would be
thrown out Of em pI"s ment. From an arti-
Gle contributed to the Lynch. Advance, we
quote the following -;
81 recall the fact that 10 1884 prominent
| furnace manager in Virginia mouth before
the Presidential election called his men to-
gether and issued an address warning sthem
against voting the democratic ticket, and
said if Cleveland was elected he would close
up his furnace. Well, Cleveland was elect
| ed, the aforesaid furnace did not close up,
and it is an admitted fact that it has made
more money since 1885 than it ever made
| before"

KNIGHTS OF LABOR AND THE TARIFF
Philadelphia, Jan. Cat meeting last
night of local assembly $500 knights OF
labor, composed of Reading R. R. en-
ployees, the following preamble and reso.
lutions were adopted:
Whereas the Philadelphia and Reading
R. r. Co. in the present difficulties which
they have forced upon their employees are
engaging immigrants to fill the places they
have caused US to vacate; and whereas, the
company is protected from foreign compe-
tition by protective tariff on coal, which
we have fondly believed for years was in
tended to benefit American labor; and
whereas, we as citizens of this republic
believe the laws should be impartial, and
that no laws should be enacted which con-
fer special privileges upon any class of citi-
zens; therefore, be it
Resolred, That in the coming election
for Congressman we shall support only
those mon who are pledged to vote to re-
peal the tariff on coal.
