Among other thing s Mr. Morvy said: •“It is the great office of tile farmer to furnish the food supply of the world. How can we best enable the American farmers to supply our people? Upon what condition can the consumer get the best bread, and the fanner the most certain and adequate reward for his labor and liis toil ? Many panaceas are offered; all kinds of chimerical schemes are invented and presented to the farm¬ er aa a care for all the ills he has fallen heir to. “But, Mr. Chairman, in my opinion, one of the most beneficient things that congress can do for the farmer will be to elevate enact the legislation such as 6M1 tend to standard of the products of the soil; such as will encourage the and raising Will of better wheat, corn and oats, protect the same from being adulterated and degraded before it reaches those who buy it for bread. If congress, bv a law, helps to bring about this beneficent result, will *Rcnr« purer food to the people, which is their right, reward and to the farmer a surer and better for his labor, which is his due. “From the nature of his occupation, the farmer is isolated and somewhat re¬ moved from his fellows, each operating independently. The product of his farm is in each case limited in quantity, and forms the smallest part or the ag¬ gregate production, and it only becomes after commercially it a part of that aggregate passes from his possession into the hands of the middle men. “Here, the good and the bad, the clean and the filthy, the sound and the unsound grain are assembled together, and the result is that local and specu¬ lative interests deteriorate and degrade the products of our American fanner, with injury to both consumer and pro¬ ducer.

If I am correctly Informed, old faithful employes of <he New York tral and Hudson railroad have been marily dismissed from the service of company, because they were members and active in the Knights of Labor. It represented to me tbit up to the time their discharge they were faithful to Interests of the company, and that one mark of discredit stands against Industrial record of any of those were discharged prior to Ang. 8,1890. That in brief this is the statement of men. The frequency of dismissals but little room for doubt in the minds the men that they were all in danger discharge at a moment’s notice, hence the strike. The whole queetion binges upon the charge of Knights of Labor because are such. If it ean be shown that men were working Injury to their ployers right-minded men will say they were treated aa they deserved. they were discharged for cause the York Central and Hudson River haa everything to gain and nothing to from an investigation, if they dismissal from the service of the none of us will ask for their ment.

There Will nothing then to arbitrate, so long as hold to that opinion. The interests of the pnblic, tbe of the owners of th# aompany you sent, and the rights of men to for self-protection are all involved in contest. The policy *f the order of Knights ot Labor is to work peacefully the line of educational and legislative form. It ia not ths policy of the tion, uo matter what its enemies may to enter hastily upon strikes. Ths ent strike may be pointed to In refutation of that last anserti*a, but, until an vestigation into the cause or causes had, that must remain a disputed tion, while the hundreds of cases have been peacefully and quietly through the intervention of the of Labor, although not heralded cast, as they wonld have been had ended in strikes, prove that our aim Is avoid strikes, rather than to them.

The Interests of working people are th* same as ths others, bat their right to organise, and select organisation they wish to belong to, fully as dear to them aa their pecnaisry interests ean possibly be. Here Is an org an!rati on, the aim of which is to work for educational end leg¬ islative advantages, called upon to defend Its members who, up to the ttine of their dismissal, had worked only In educational and legislative directiona. Surely we have a right to question why they were dis¬ charged Each man, no matter how hum¬ ble, is as much a part of the public as say other man.
