constitution was adopted. In 1879 thir-
teen states were represented at st. Louis.
The next September Mr.. Powderly was
elected grand master workman, and
since that date the average outside read
er of the papers has occasionally failed
TO distinguish between his acts and those
of the order. In 1857 the order grew
with such extraordinary rapidity that il
was popularity supposed to number a
million members. Then came the schism
at Minneapolis in 1881.
The history of the movement inside
the Knights of Labor is briefly as fol-
lows: In August, 1897, Mr.. Powderly
sent out circular in which he proposed
thorough reorganization, in which
| each separate trade was TO be self gov
erning, with its independent local, dis
| trict, state and national assemblies, all
to Join in sending delegates to the gen
eral assembly of the Knights, and no
local assembly to order "A strike until
the highest executive authority had re
ported in favor OF 1t by three-fourths
vote.
Following this came a series Of re-
volts, and the order declined till 1t con
tanned probably but 10000 members.
Mr.. Powderly then turned to the Farm
ers' Alliance, and by series of mastery
movements started the order again on
healthy advance In 1891 the general
assembly at Denver voted for political
action. and Mr.. Powderly issued cir.
cular directing preparations to take part
in the campaign Of 1892.
Terence Vincent Powderly was born
of Irish parents at Carbonate, Pa, Jan
90, 1849. He learned the trade of ma
chinist and located in Scranton, of which
city he was elected mayor in 1873, 1881
and 1892 His home is still in that city
where he has a wife, but no children
His present office is entitled genera

per year. The term has been changed
from one year to two, and he has beer
! elected ten times, besides being sent t.
the worlds fair of 1885, at Paris, a
representative of the order.
Mr.. A. w. Wright, who is said to hay,
some prospects of succeeding Mr.. Pow
DERBY, is native of Canada, but at pres
: ent resident of Philadelphia. He ha
been newspaper man for most Of hi
adult life, and besides editing The JouI
nal of United Labor has written o.
various subjects over the pen name Q
"Spokeshaye." He is 10 be CAREFUL
distinguished from Mr.. James A
Wright, whose abilities as a speaker
especially in clearness of statement
. have made him general lecturer of tn
order.
Mr.. John w. Hayes, general secretar
and treasurer of the order, and ais
spoken of for first place, is a native
New Jersey. and was a brakeman an
telegraph operator till he lost one arr
in railroad accident.
Mrs. Leonora Barry is probably Il
most prominent woman in the orde
and is known to the reading public {
the lady who went TO the last Paris g

to American experience that when
plays were put upon the stage represent

and such novels as Charles Reade's 'Put

Owen assumed as a matter not needing
proof that in this generation the United
States would not see "a real labor strug-

Three stupendous changes followed in
rapid uccession-4 ,000, 900 colored slaves
were liberated, and the moral question

every trade had its own organization

years old, it is averred, has been inves-

from these evidences of age he is free

900, and that it has since entered on an
other era of growth. 1t is now, so far
AS the outsiders eye can see, approach
ing another crisis in its career, and the
approaching general assembly, which
will convene in st. Louis ON the 14th,
must apparently decide the issues which
will determine the character and des-
tiny of the order for many years, if not
permanently.
Stated broadly, the most important
matter for discussion will be the attitude
of the order toward politics, especially
the new movements in various sections.
1t is pressed upon the order by the prom
inent part recently taken by such lead
ers as Powderly, Hayes, Wright, Devlin
and others in the Peoples party move
ment, and as usual before every meeting
of the general assembly there is some
talk about the retirement of General
Master Workman Powderly and the
choice of his successor, but it is notice
able that the opposition to him is less
noisy or rather less bitter than at sew
eral previous assemble and along with
this fact the statement is made by many
of the orders spokesman that Mr.. Pow
derby now wishes to retire, provided he
can do so with dignity. In this con-
uection A. W. Wright, member of the

are several opportunities for paving
