"Keep yottr eye on the movement and you will sec that it will nil end In mist," a friend said lo tnc the other day In speaking of llie gigantic proptirtlou?wh"teh the labor vlelnciil had rciichcd as a factor in our pol itics. True, wo sometimes -grow enthusi astic; on the labor problems, and ntlciipl in our own humble way to twist and plan a scheme of our own by which thelabuilng Inasscs can In n measure resist the undue, heavy and onerous oppressions imposed Upon them by a number of corporations, bi'ly to become morn mixed tip ami con founded th.ui ever before. We remember saying In a former letter that the Knights of Labor going Into politics, would have a tendency to mikutli.it organization become moioorless of a lHilllleal body, leaving It. open to the usual illssentlons which cause disruptions In political parlies. We have no reason for wishing lo change the aser Hon at this day either, if anything, we might repeal It with more lorce. and energy now than ever liefoiv. We nre firmly Im pressed with the object the Knights of La bor haye In slew, and If wo did not sym pathise with them we would not be human. I'lio laboring masses owe to themselves a duty, one which must be profoundly Im pressed iitKiu llie minds of nieiiibers of the organization, 'at "eternal vigilance Is the price of liberty," so is fidelity to the amel ioration of Hie laboring masses the only means of wcurlng recognition and eleva tion. A hypocrite hero and there amongst the members of the order can work more harm In n single day than moiulis of hard work can repair, for when once a traitor to I tie cause Is found each one will look upon the other with suspicion, anil as a result the freedom and openness of discussion will be luore or less restricted, there, will be a timidity on the part of all. In fact, and every act will bn looked upon with suspic ion bordcilng on to fear. And for this reason alone wc are tempted to say that the political immanent which lias taken pos session of the Knights of Labor aIII even tually piove to be Its diversion. We have said that they are a factor In politics to riav, and that the extent of their power Is be yond llie comprehension of the ablest poll tleian. we repeat It npiln and with more force and earnestness than wc have here tofore done. Fair-minded, honest and con seivutlims members of th organisation will coincide with n. when we say that Knights of Labor have not been true to their own interests In Hie past the lesult ol the late election logically proves this. We will not my that Cliaunccy lilack is more honest, capable ami worthy to ho Governor than James A. Heaver," or that any of the Democratic candidates weie better fitted to (ill the positions to which they asplied than nre the successful Ite pnbllcans. Hut no do say that something must certainly be "rotten in Denmark" when an organisation endorses n man, pie sents his name to a convention, and almost demands his nomination, only to daughter lilm at the polls. It (s not too late to con sider these questions. The election is long since over, and everybody Is now satisfied w lib Hie order of tilings, and It Is w bile In this condition that bitch questions as con cern tlie welfare of a people should be con sidered. It is but natural under the exist ing order of Ihings for Democrats to claim that tha Knights of Labor have been man ipulated by Republican machinery ami there Is considerable loom to substantiate this suspicion, no doubt, or In many In stances It would not be so boldly pro claimed. If this he true, and we feel tempted to believe that It is, then, the labor movement has had a set back which will require years to remedv. People generally cannot put f.iitli in an organization that fs open to machine manipulation, and the or der makes enemies wheiuit should make, friends. True, the order has made them selves fell in polltlcs.and they will continue to play In the uncci'liiln game until tliev get caught out on n foul. You will not be lieve us when we say that the time for the dissolution of the Knights of lAlior Is maiked. H'e are sot ty for It, for wv had dieatni'd grand and noble riieams of what was to have been nccomplMieri by tlie uni ty of the laboring classes. We are not too preuiattue in our piophecy, foe the refusal of tlie Knights in Hi,.
