J | Tkkuk tl At* rK, Ind., Aug. 25,1SOO. To All Labor O'mnlxattons: Men and ISkothi.us—O n the night of Aug, 9 a strike began on the New York Central And Hudson River railroad, in¬ volving about 8,000 met! iu the employ of the said road, who were members of a great labor organization known as the Knights of Labor. The reason set forth by Mr. T. V. Powderly, chief executive of the order, may be summarized as follows: The peremptory discharge of between fifty and sixty men, employes of the road und members of the Kuights of Labor, because they were Knights of Labor, without giving them any reason what- sver for tbe discharge. Prior to the strike the men involved nought through the representives of the order to have their grievances adjusted, but their appeal being ’disregarded, a striko was inaugurated. After giving details about the visit of Grand Master Workman Powderly to Mr. Webb, the third vice tVampted president of the road, with whom he to settle the trouble, of the report of refers the to the calling the convention su¬ preme council of the United Orders of Railway employes, aud says: The council having beard the state¬ ments ot its members, who had vis¬ ited New York for the purpose of ascer¬ taining tho true condition of affairs, ex¬ haustively discussed every important proposition and arrived at conclusion as follows: First—That the position of the Knights of Labor, as set forth by T. V. Powderly, grand master workman, and the general executive board of the Knights of Labor, meets with ou? unqualified approval. SecMid—That the oourse pursued by H. Walter Webb toward Mr. Powderly and the Knights of Labor, notwithstanding his declarations to the contrary, evinces a purpose to disrupt and destroy labor or¬ ganizations on the New York Central and Hudson railroad, as was done by Austin Corbin Third—That on the Philadelphia and Reading. the policy of H. Walter Webb is despotic to au extant that out¬ rages every principle of American citizen¬ ship, and if generally adopted, would, If successful, reduoe American workingmen to tho degraded condition of serfs. Fourth—That H. Walter Webb, by the employment of Pinkerton thieves, thugs aud murdferers, vile wretches from the slums and brothels of New York and other cities, to kill workingmen because they dared to protest Against his rule, and strike for their rights, is guilty of a crime of such enormity as will Associate to the name of H. Walter Webb forever with those who, dressed in a little brief author¬ ity, have used their money to secure power to degrade their fellow-men. Fifth—That the efforts now being put forth by H. Walter Webb to destroy the Knights of' Labor would, were circum¬ stances changed, in -like manner be made to destroy (organizations of engineers, -firemen, conductors, trainmen and switch¬ men, and, if successful, it is only a ques¬ tion of time when u similar effort will be made to seal the fate of other labor organ¬ izations. Sixth—That II. Walter Webb, by the course he has pursue; toward the Knights of Labor aud the rcprvv.:::tatives of labor organizations,' has Stenya a total disre¬ gard of those priacip'es of citizen's sov¬ ereignty, dear to every American worthy of tint name, and considering only Us money power and the corporate power of the company he represents, his acts, which speak louder than wdrds, say, in the language of W. H. Vanderbilt, once the ahtocrat of tbe New York Central, ^The public be damned.” Seventh—H. Walter Webb seeks to sup¬ port his arrogant attitude towards work¬ ingmen and labor organizations by an- a ou Bclf)-^ that the New York Centra! and Hudson liivtr railroad is private property and tnaTEis acts in tbs. treatment of his employes is in no sense a matter of public concern; that he can with impunity dis¬ charge men and remand them to idleness and poverty, aud render them homeless wanderers without giving any reason or explanation whatever for his conduct, dis¬ regarding the fact that tbe corporation for which he plays autocrat is a tiling created by laws, in tbe making y* which, the men he seek* to degrade have a voice, which, once united, will bring his corporation to the bar of justice, where his millions and the other millions he represents, will cease to be potential in directing ques¬ tions of right. In view of the foregoing facts, the su¬ preme council puts upon its record its unanimous and unqualified approval of the strike on the New York Central and Hudson River railroad for the couse set forth by T. V. Powderly, general master workman, as also the efforts made by Mr. Powderly'to bring the strike to an honor¬ able termination. In this gZfieral expres¬ sion of ‘approval of the action of the Knights of Labor the course of Vies Pres¬ ident Webb is as unequivocally con¬ demned. The power of the supreme council in the matter of the strike has been exerted to aid the Knights of Labor, through their representatives, -to secure the recogni¬ tion of their order by the officials of a rich and jji.arrfnl corporation, to socure for worx.rvmca, tbe victims of autocratic power, a hearing, and to perform such Other kioc ders as were proper un^ier the ci.. , rieas, d<-m mstrating sym¬ pathy a.;-. i„ so I will, i.itreby aiding the Knights of Labor to bring the strike to a close upon piim.ip'.n, of right and justice. In this, the council met with failure, ow¬ ing to the autocratic attitude of H. Wal¬ ter Webb. It now becomes necessary for the su¬ preme council to **yv that owing to the fact that the <vtkr o! tbe Knights of labor! * not a member ol the Federation of Railway Employes, the laws of the MUFFIN GEORGIA THURSDAY MORNING. AUGUST 28 . 1890 . supremo rAj5.il do not permit Its doing more than It has done to aid the Knights o! Labor, and its inability to participate otherwise iu the strike is now known and appreciated by Mr. Pdwderly. Referring to the laws of the supreme council relating to strikes, the matter is concisely presented -as follows; In the first place it the members of the organisa¬ tion ou any railroad has a grievance, it is submitted to the proper officers of the road by the local grievance committee. In event of failure to obtain satisfaction the chief executive officer of the order hav¬ ing the grievance is called upon, aud in connection with the committee seeks to amicably adjust the differences. If failure still attends the efforts to ad¬ Is just tho trouble, then the Supreme council convened at the headquarter* of tbs railroad officials, with whom a conference is requested its influence is excited to obtain a seMKnent alike and just to all parties. If failiirc still follows effar!a-to remove the cause of complaint, an i the council by a unanimous vote decides tiie grievance to be of such gravity as to justify a strike , it is promptly ordered, in which event HjliTnemborsUf ffie'va organi¬ zations employed oa the road where the grievance exist, viz., firemen, conductors, trainmen and switchmen abandon their work. In conclusion, the supreme council places upon its high appreciation of the manliness of the Knights of Labor em¬ ployed on the New York Central and Hudson River railroad in struggling to maintain workingman a principle the eontinlT^ saegri to to .fUl every on men who love justice and hope for the tri¬ umph of right over wrong as flagrant as ever stained the pages of history.
