which will call out tomorrow every
member Of the Knights of Labor in the

The present industrial crisis" said

by the result.
This order will probably AFFECT about
one million men. There are thousands
OF workingmen in this country who
have been members Of our organization,
but who are not now actively identified
with II. I am confident that such men
will rally to our standard at this time.
