moonitnde as to extend their influence into
evarv town and hamlet in the country.
Each is in existence for the sole purpose of
establishing ard protecting the rights of
organized labor. yet SO radically opposed is
tba one ia the other in its view of the means
n he adopted to that end that all hope Of
uniting the orders in harmonious action on
anv great problem affecting wageworkers
has long since been abandoned, and it
seems to be recognized now that permanent
supremacy of the one i'll the labor world
means the gradual extinction of the other
one would opliterate trade distinction in
its work for the good of the entire order;
the other is based entirely on the trade
union principle declaring that no other
principle can be of permanent value.
Hence it is that all who take time to con-
slider seriously the vital issues OF the day
are watching with the keenest interest the
