In tho circular nt Ma eh 13 IbNl
Tho uffect ot this declaration on the
public mind may bu easily Imagined re
duced to Its simplest form tho declara
tions of Governors Mirnaduko and Mur
tln Is that tho strike ou tho Missouri Ia
clllo was without cause and that all thu
ensuing loss to railroads railroad em
ployes nnd people Is attributable alouo to
a causeless action ot tho Knights of La
bor Tho public has naught to do will
tho jurisdiction of labor assemblies As
Tin Gazitti stated some days since all
that tho public knows Is that thu dis
charge ot ouo man nt Marshall provoked
a striko on tho Texas luclllc nud that the
men ou tho Missouri tuelllo struck be
caubo of that sttlko on tho Texas Vnclllo
aud this Is now omphasUed by tho nc
kuowledgmoit of tho guberuatotlal en
voys
Tho reply of Mr IIovlo was given
lu full In yostordays Ga kttk In sub
stance It Is that thu Missouri 1aclllc has
not violated the agreement mado lu 18SI
uud will continue to Ilo up to It that
striking employes will be reemployed as
far as places can bu found tho preference
belug given to men of families and thoso
having homos along tho lino of tho road
thut no man will bo employed who has de
stroyed or advised tho destruction ot the
companys propcity that no man em
ployed slnco tho striko will be discharged
to make place for a striker and that the
striko has caused a loss of tralllo which
will mako It necessary to reduce tho num
ber ot men working In tho shops at tho
timo of tho strike
This roply was transmitted to tho
Knights of Labor by tho two governors
both making speeches lu tax or ot Its ac
ceptance Tbo exccutlvo committee ot
Assembly 101 then took tho matter under
Advisement and Upon their action at this
wilting doponds tho resumption of traffic
and normal commercial relations if not
pcaco and order In four states If
tho striko Is continued it will
bo at the expense ot the Knights
of Labor as an organisation Tho prop
osition submitted to the Knights by the
gubernatorial envoys will bo doomed
most fair by tho public indeed the pub
lic will decide that no other could bo pro
posed by tho Missouri Taclllc which so
far as public opinion goes stands In tho
nttltudoof a party assailed without cause
Looking to ultlmalo results therefore
tho committee of Assembly No 101 hold
In their hands not only tho question ot
tho prolongation ot this stikc but tho
Integrity ohd fate of tholr order Mis
guided zeal may plant tho seeds of dis

A very probable outgrowth of feeling
In relation to tho prolonged and disas
trous strikes now going on In various
parts ot tho country will bo an antagon
ism to trades unions Only by joining
together can workmen seenro snoa har
mony of action ns to lead to a gonoral
striko Therefore to aort strikes many
suppose It would only bo nccossary to do
nwny with trados unions
This Is but a onoslded viowof n groat
quofctlon It Is not strictly corlect In
statement or conclusion neither does it
allow tho othor side to bo hoard Lven
If tho proposition wore admitted to be
tine that tho oigaulzatlon ot workmen
In trades unions encourages strikes It
can bo shown that tho bcucnclal results
from such unions far moro than balance
tho evil results
Not least among tho benefits ot tiades
unlonism Is tho benevolent feature which
Imposes upon tho whole society tho du
tiful care ef disabled members In this
respect titulcs unions cany out tho hu
mane spirit of Cbilstlanlty nhlch is too
much neglected by tho chinches The
sick conn ado Is cared fo his family sus
tained If ho is taken away and charity Is
mado a living fact
Tho tono of a craft Is elevated by an
amicable association of Its members In
which each feels that In conlilbullng to
tho general good his act tellccts upon him
In turn and promotes his welfare for his
welfare Is bound up In tho condition of
tho tado Intel change of Ideas at tho
busiuoss meetings stimulates tho thinking
faculties of tho membes It would boa
dull man Indeed who would uot leain
something fom associating with his
fellowcraftsmen In tho stated meetings
ot the union Tho habits of discipline
enforced and learned thoro aro of ad
vantage to hliu in the practice of life
Tho condition of trade Is mado known by
the communication kept up between
uulous In different parts of tho country
and tho labor body Is not congested by
workmen Hocking to a plaeu whero thoy
aro not needed nor famished by lack of
thorn nt a place whero thoy could And
profitable employment
What may bo said in favor ot trades
unions as among members of Ono craft
loses its force when extended to universal
organisation thu combination of mom
bors of diverse avocations In ono central
body In many eases what would pro
moto tho welfuro of ono branch of such
a combination would bo opposed to
tho Interests of nnothor A enso ot
tills kind may bo suggested by nn
ntteinpt to harmonUo tho farmers and thu
railroad laboers In pursuit of a common
end Tho railroaders want their wages
raised Tho extra pay adds to tho cost
ot operating railroads That extra ox
ponso must bo provided for by Increasing
thu earnings ot tho roads and this can bo
dono only by increasing tho charges of
woil
Mr Hodgo kuew full thu danger
awaltliiR the next train tbo passongor
which reached there about T a m and
carrying freight Tho farmer who has
cotton or corn or wheat to send to market
pays tho addltlonl charge Ills goods
that ho buys from the village merchant
are higher because thoy have paid moro
freight llalnly tho farmer cannot sup
port tho proposition to aid tho railroader
In getting an advauco of wages without
saciKlcliig his own welfare Thoro is no
compatibility In thu union It Is right
enough for tho railroaders to ty to ob
tain bottor wages and It Is right enough
for the fanners to ask for lower
freights but theso efforts for advanclug
tho Interests of thu two classes each
must carry out themselves There Is
nothing In common among them Onu
can gain an advnutnguoulynl tho expense
of tho other It Is very evident then
that no lasting nlllauco can bomado be
tween tho farmers and tho Knights ot
Labor
I vory calling profession or Industry
has a community of Interest among Its
members that domauds a closo associa
tion for mutual advancement but when
two or more of theso Industries try to
unite there Is not tho common welfare
that existed In tho bnndlug together of
Individual members of tho sumo occupa
tion ruch In Its spin ro la capable of
good but outside of that Bploru they
clash nnd produce confusion Thu Fann
ers alliance will prosper us loug as It
confines Its work to Improving tho con
dition of tho tinners tho clgarmakora
union tho printers union tho brakemcus
union tho amalgamated Ironworkers nil
theso can do a world ot good If they will
limit tholr efforts to their Owu world
but when thoy como together and try to
make a grand union of tho vholo whero
them is no real union of Interest the
good that results Is uot purceptlblc and
such n combination cannot be lasting tor
It lacks tho element ot durability which
is a common Interest
