ORGANIZED TREASON.

The entertaining a. p. A. organ, the
LOYAL American, is moved to thank The
Sentinel for the advertisement it has
been giving to the organization. 1t de-
clares that 1.-The mud throwing in which
it has been engaged and the malicious
falsehoods circulated through its pages
have helped to swell the ranks of the
A. p. A. considerably" 1t is probably
correct to say that telling the truth
about this organization is "mud-throw-
ing" but that is not our fault. AS TO
the malicious falsehoods'' the organ is
not specific There is nothing to indicate
whether it refers to our exposure of its
statement that a majority of the In
dianapolis school board were catholics
or to our exposure of its forged en-
cyclical letter of Pope Leo, or to our ex-
posures of other of the fabrications that

the disreputable schemers who pull the
strings of this institution have put in
circulation to alarm ignorant and
prejudiced people. The only specifica-
ton of falsehood it makes is this:
The Sentinel asserts that the a p
A. is a reasonable society violating the
constitution of the United States by
endeavoring to prohibit men from hold
ing office on the ground of their re-
ligous belief. Surely the editor must
have known when penning the above
that he was publishing a falsehood. He
ought 10 be a little more careful to dis
hnguish between things that especially
differ in their very nature. II is one
thing TO shut man out of Office on the
ground of his religious opinions and
quite another thing TO keep him out
of office because he was previously the
member of reasonable conspiracy
Surely this should disqualify any man
from holding Office in the state.
The Unreasonable conspiracy" referred
to is the catholic church. and the ground
on which this is claimed by the n p. ~
to be reasonable is that its members
recognize the pope as the head of the
church, and owe him spiritual allegiance
The pretense that there is anything treas
church is idiocy. No person of ordinary
intelligence believes it for moment
But the A. p. a. requires its members
to swear that they will violate the con-
stitution. Consider this official document
issued by the A. p. A. in Denver:

exposed at Hampstead, Tex. For some
time past railroad companies have been

GLASS TRUST BROKEN.
Secretary Wheeler Gives Notice of
Its Disruption.

PITTSBURG, Nov. 16.-The National
plate glass association has gone to
pieces. Secretary d. E. Wheeler gave
out the following to the Associated Press
this afternoon: THE plate glass assoc
citation met in Pittsburg today and held
it's last meeting The association was
formed for one year and the time for
which it was formed having expired,
owing to the financial situation of the
country and the light demand for plate
glass and foreign competition, the manu-
facturers decided not to continue the
association longer. Therefore its head
quarters in Pittsburg will be closed on
and after this day"
The association had capital OF $10.-
100000 and was one of the strongest
trusts in the country Lately small out
side concerns have been cutting prices,
and this, 1t is said. had something to
do with the disruption.

indicate a thoroughly selfish organi2a-
tion. Not word OF sympathy for the
young wife about TO become mother
appears to have been expressed at any
stage of the proceedings, and yet We
are told that he is writing a book en-

long that she has made lucky escape

LABOR CONSOLIDATION.

1t seems a little bit odd that Master
Workman Powderly should now be
found posing as the advocate of con-
solidation between the various labor
organizations of the country. For years
he has stood as the opponent of such
amalgamation. though unity of action
was the central and controlling idea Of
the great labor organization of which
he has been so many years the head.
At this time the appearance of Mr..
Powderly and the Knights of Labor as
advocates of consolidation would seem
to indicate the dissolution Of the knights
This was i'm it's day the greatest labor
organization ever known, superbly dis
ciplined, aggressive and powerful It's
downfall was due to number of causes.
In the first place it made a mistake in
binding its members by secret oath,
which excited a suspicion as to its
motives i'm the popular mind. This sus-
picion may have been unjust, doubtless
was. but it existed just the same and
deprived the organization of much of
the sympathy and encouragement which
it otherwise might have received. Then
the arbitrary power given to it's walk
ing delegates" proved distasteful to the
members and obnoxious to employers.
Later on the personal ambitions Of
sions arose and a few defeats i'm great
struggles caused the order to dwindle
to comparative insignificance. After
standing out for years against amalga-
nation with other labor organizations
the Knights of Labor seems to see the
futility of a further individual existence
and seeks consolidation.
Whether or not an amalgamation
will be effected is a debatable question.
1t is difficult to see how the differences
of the past can be adjusted on any salts
factory lines Certainly they cannot if
the old leaders are to remain i'm control
of the various organizations which it is
proposed to unite. Yet it cannot be
doubted that in united and harmonious
action alone lies hope of success. Labor
organizations acting individually have so
often been beaten i'm even the most
righteous causes that the necessity for
uniflcation has become most apparent.
If consolidation is brought about it
must, To be successful in its workings,
be broader in it's aims and operation
than anything that has gone before.
1t must have wiser and more unselfsh
leadership. 1t must devise means To
purge itself of the suspicion Of tyranny
and at the same time secure almost
military discipline among its members.
1t will take big brains and big hearts
as well as wonderful industry to bring
this about Yet it is one of the possi-
bilities of the future.
The successful labor organization,
when it is formed. will be the one which
reduces the feeling of antagonism be-
tween employer and employee to the min
imum. and devises the best means for
settling disputes to arise from the un-
avoidable antagonsm. 1t will be Off
cered by men with no personal axes to
grind, no political masters to serve.
It's aim will be arbitration; it's desire
simple justice Whether the time has
arrived for launching such an organiza-
ton remains TO be seen.
