THE KNIGHTS 0F liABOK. Address of Welcome by Gov. Lee and POwderly's Reply. Fellow-Citizens: I: am here this morning in response to i an invitation from the committee of the Knights of Labor of Richmond,, for the purpose of uniting with them in meeting and greeting citizens from! other States, who come within the gates of this cox mon wealth to confer with a por tion of her people a conference which we earnestly hope will be productive of the greatest benefit to all con cerned. The constitution under which we live has now borne the test of ..war ; troublesome and un adjusted questions were submitted to the sword, and by the sword they have been decided. We of the South placed a different interpretation upon the terms of that instrument from that he'd by the North, but bow in submis sion to the settlement thus decreed. What part are ,the represen tatives of the assemblies of Knights of Labor, going to play in bringing prosperitv and peace to this republic ? VVhat object have they in view ? "The million of men who are in the Knights of Labor," says Mr. Powderly (whom lam glad to see and meet here) "are studying the science of government." Surely we are all interested in that. Governor Dee advised the Knights to inscribe on their flag the motto, "Equal aad exact justice to all men, of whatever persuasion,; religious or political." We are told, he said, that organized capital denies labor its rights, and asks if the conflict between capital and labor will be a "war to the knife." He reminded his hearers that the Constitution of the United States was an outcome of compromises of the most conflicting opinions, and as serted that compromises would settle the difficulties which the Knights are attempting to deal with. He advised the Knights to follow tjae advice of Mr. Powderly, and keep politics and politicians Out of the or der. He said thjere were two kinds of capitalists, ant he would go with the Knights "and fight by your , side against one of these classes. Make war against incorporated rascality, and we will help you to ride it down. Combat great moneyed corporations th.it seek to control your legislation, Federal and State, by bribery and cor ruption in order that they may get votes in the federal hallsof legislation to perfect and fasten upon the whole country legislation for their benefit, and not for the benefit of the people at large. We will march shoulder to shoulder with you in that. Draw the fangs from the money kings who seek to take possession of the great tele graph lines of the country and deflect them from their legitimate purpose by centrolling them to defeat the will of a free people in an attempt' to defraud the whole country of their constitu tional right to elect rulers, and we will order to your sugport "horse, foot and dragoons" in that. Organize against capitalists who furnish money to carry elections, and then claim ; as th'eir re ward the selection of the men upon whose shoulders shall be thrown the purple robe of the judiciary, and we are with you in that. You will feel the touch of our elbows, too, in assist ing.to keep down any men Or set of men who seek to depart from the 1 'lines marked out" by our forefathers and set up in this country a strong central government to control the peo ple, when the fathers formed a gov ernment to be controlled by the peo ple. But the Governor reminded his hear ers that capital was not used in this way, and advised them not to make war on those who-use their fortune to alleviate the sufferings of mankind, and to whiten the ocean with the sails of busy commerce. We are all interested in!1 the laborer getting property and becoming anx ious for a stable government, so that his aid can be required in building up his fellow-men and not in pulling them down; and your organization whose aims claim to be the maintenance of order and the enforcement of good laws, should have no sympathy with those whpse aim is to break down and destroy those laws. The employer will never be allowed to prescribe the con ditions of employment and exact ser vice on his own terms, to say T will work for a certain sum and you shall employ me. The rights of all men are going to be protected in this country. Employ- ers, as nas Deen wen saia, nave no right to lock out a whole shop full of hands to bring a few unwilling ones to terms, nor have they, in my opinion, the right to engage with other employ- 1 At A 1 ers to nx a rate ior tnem to pay or compel all to remain idle, but they have a right to exercise their just judgment as to what fair dealing-mnd justice aemana, ana wnat tney would be willing to give for the workthey want, and afterwards, if sustaining a loss, to say they would not be able to give so much. You can have hell in your factory, says Washington Glad den, or you can have heiaven there, just as you wish. If it ; is hell you want, build your business in the law of hell, which is simply, "every man for himself and the devil take the hindmost." The people of this country can never be satisfied until liberty of action is conceded to all. Samson overthrew the temple of the Philistines, but it is instructive. says a wise writer, to remember what became of Samson. The inventor of pruilotine perished by the blade. The law will protect both capital and labor, and behind the statute law is a great codeflof law, which has existed all through civilized lire, and which is Known as common law : it is a great mistake to think that all classes are hostile to the laboring; class. Na tional prosperity is not promoted by having in our midst a degraded class of laborers. liovernor jjee spone in tavor or ar bitration for differences between capi tal and labor, and in conclusion be sought his hearers not to increase the load of sorrow and trouble with which the world was already burdened, but to be patient and charitable. Gov. Lee then formally welcomed the del egates to Richmond, and hoped that their stay would prove pleasant and profitable, and their deliberations har monious and wise. The- large audience listened with ilose attention, and frequent applause marked their approval of the principal point made. When the Governor had taken his seat on the platform Frank J. Ferrell, the colored member of the delegation of District 49, whose asso ciates refused to take up their quar ters in the hotel in, which he was re fused admission on an equal f ootinsr, ascended the platform, taking his .stand beside the presiding officer's ta ' ' ...mmmbmmmMMMMIMMWIWMWM ble, and said: "His Excellency, the Governor of Virginia, and Gentlemen of the "Convegon, it is with much pleasure and gratification that I in troduce to you Mr. T. V. Powderly, of the State of Pennsylvania, who will reply to the address of welcome of Governor Lee." , When Mr. Powderly stepped for ward he was received with loud ap plause. Bowing to Governer Lee and the audience, he said: MR. POWDERLY'S REPLY. Mr. T. V. Powderly began by re turning thanks for the reception they had met with,-and pleasantly alluded to the fame of southern hospitality. The fight in which the Knights of Labor are engaged, he said, is not a war of labor against capital, but a war in which the manhood of the American laborer is fighting for re cognition. In this war it must be de termined which shall rule, monopoly or the American people gold or man hood. Popular disregard of political duty and tolerated continued political cor ruption, will weaken our government and destroy our liberties, for the worm can eat its way through the oak 7hich storm and tempest could not bend, and political dishonesty will strike where the lightnings could never reach. If this land was worthy that brave men should die for it, it is at least worthy that unselfish, thoughtful men should, live and work in a grand devo tion to f the ideas of a real, a true democracy. We come here not alone to settle the question of a dispute in regard to wages or hours of labor, we come here partly to study and learn some lessons of the head and heart of practical citizenship. To rescue the toiler from the grasp of the selfish is afork worthy of the noblest and bestir our race. It is to the accomplishment of that grand ob ject that every Knight of Labor should bend his every energy. Lack of success or encouragement must not dishearten, defection in friends, or fancied friends, must not turn him aside from his purpose, love of ease must not prevent him from working. The question is asked, "Why have you such an organization as the Knights of Labor ?" We are Knights of Labor because we believe that the declaration of independence means something more than mere words and beautiful sentences. We are Knights of Labor because we believe that it is wrong for an alien king to oppress a people and rob them, it is also wrong for any other man to oppress or rob his fellow creatures. We are Knights of Labor because we believe "To whom belongs the soil, it is his, even unto heaven." We are Knights of Labor because we believe that the rights of the poorest, humblest man or woman of toil should stand forth more clearly and be treated with more of respect than the privileges conferred upon, or stolen by the wealthiest in the nation. We are Knights of Labor because politicians and political par ties have deceived, degraded and de bauched the people, because they have too often gained power through decep tion and fraud, and in return for the confidence reposed in them they have basely deserted the common people and knelt at the shrine of gold. We are Knights of Labor because we believe that law and order should prevail, and mat both should be founded in equity. We are Knights of .Labor because we believe that the thief who steals a dollar is no worse than the thief who steals a railroad: that the burglar who breaks open a house or a vault is no worse than the criminal who destroys or orders the de struction of the property of a railroad or telegraph company, and we believe that the same law should reach out with a firm, unshaken hand and punish both criminals according to the mag nitude or their guilt. We believe that if it is wrong to steal a loaf of bread, it is also wrong to steal the land where on the grain was raised from which the bread was made, and if the land was stolen according to a law made by a dishonest, time-serving politician, we believe that the law should be re pealed and the land restored to the people. We are Knights of Labor be cause we believe if the article manu factured by the Land of the American laborer is worthy of protection from foreign competition, that the hand whose skill lends value to the article should be protected, and we have de termined to protect our labpr independ ent of politicians or political parties. The slavery that died twenty years ago was terrible, but bad as it was, it never developed a millionaire while the new slavery which now reaches out with a far stronger hand than the old, has developed hundreds of them. The power of the new slave owner does not end where the day laborer bends beneath his rule, it reaches out still farther and controls the mechanic, the farmer, the mer chant, and the manufacturer. It dic tates not alone what the price of labor shall be but regulates the price of money as well. This new slavery counts among its victims servants of the state who have been chosen by the people to execute a people's will. Not alone does it control the legislator at the state capitol, but in the halls of our national Congress yon will find its most willing cringing slave. It reaches out even farther, and holds in its iron grasp the judge upon the bench; not that alone, but it has the power and does confer the judicial ermine on its most subservient creatures. Do I overestimate its power T Have I made a single misstatement. If my word is not sufficient turn to the pages of the history of the day the public press and you will hnd the testimony to provo that what I have said is true. The lash was stricken from the hand of the slave owner of 25 years ago, ami u must do tasen trom the hand of the new slave owner as well. The monopolist of to-day is more danger ous than the slave-owner, of the past. Monopoly tafces the land from the people in million acre plots: it sends its agents abroad and biings hordes'of uneducated, desperate men to this country; it imports ignorance and scatters it broadcast throughout the land. it, and it alone, is responsible for every, maniiestation of anarchy that our country has witnessed. All men may not be willing to admit that this statement is true, but when monopoly dies no more anarchists will be born unto this country, for anarchy is the legitimate child of monopoly. While I condemn and denounce the deeds of violence committed in the name of labor daring the present year, I am proud to , say, that the Knights of La bor, as an organization, is not in any way responsible for such conduct.' He is the true Knight of Labor who, with one hand clutches I anarchy by the THE GOLDSBORO MESSENGER, MONDAY, throat, and with the other strangles monopoly. -. tfNJV :X "V We are told that it is because of the importation of so many ignorant for eigners Uhat anarchy has shown its head in our country. Rather is it true that because of the importation of foreign airs, manners and graces by the wealthy wei have forgotten what it is that constitutes the true citizen of the republic.5 The man who still believes in the "little red school house on the hill" should .take one holiday and visit the mine, the factory, the coal breaker and mill. There, doing the work of men, will he find the future citizens of the republic, breath ing an atmosphere of dust, ignorance and vice. The little red school house must fail to do its work properly since the children of the poor must pass it by on the road to the workshop. It is the duty of every Knight of Labor to assist in creating a healthy public opinion on the subject of labor and the justice of its receiving a full and just share of the vlaues or capital it has helped to create. In this work we seek the active co-operation of all right-minded honest men. We work not selfishly, for ourselves alone, but extend the hand of aid and fellowship to all mankind. The lower down in the scale of poverty and oppression the greater the need for our extended hand. The sentiment which prompts men to proclaim to the world that "We amalgamate with none" finds no response in the heart of the man who properly interprets his obligation as a member of our order. Every true Knight of Labor believes with the divine teacher that "all mankind of every description is his neighbor." In concluding his speech Mr. Pow derly said that some of the members of the visiting delegations who were of darker hue than their brothers could not find place in some of the hotels. This was in accordance with what had long been the custom here and old customs and prejudices do not readily vanish. There had been par ticular mention made of one instance where a delegation numbering sixty members had only one colored member among them. He was refused admis sion to the hotel where they intended to go,, and the delegation standing by the principles of the order, which recognizes no distinction of creed, nationality or color, went with their colored brother. That, he said, was why he made the selection of that brother to introduce him to them, so that it might go forth that they prac ticed what they preached. FIGHTING THE WAR OVER AGAIN. Newark Agitated Over a School History Music in the Air. LFrom the New York Herald.l A spirited warfare is waging in New ark, N. J., against the adoption of "Barnes' Brief History of the United States," a new publication, as a text book in the public schools, on account of its alleged non-union sentiments in reference to the civil war. Several months ago the committee on text books of the board t)f education re commended its use, and at a meeting of the board next weok the report will be acted upon. Several sample copies of the history were sent to Newark and at once met with severe criticism. Lincoln and Kearny Posts, Grand Army of the Republic, adopted reso lutions declaring that the sentiments contained in the work were hurtful to young minds, and requesting the school commissioners not to introduce it into the schools. The strife has be come so bitter that it will be carried into the city election, which will be held on October 12. In the work the history of the country is divided into six epochs, and the civil war, which is the sixth epoch, is told in sixty-six pages. The first sentence in the epoch is as follows : "Rumors of a plan to assassinate Lincoln impelled him to come to Washington in disguise. He was inaugurated March 4, 1861,. surrounded by troops under General Scott." It is claimed that this charge against Lincoln of assuming disguise is untrue. A Newarker, who was ac quainted with the martyred President, and who was advised of the facts of the case, said the other day : "Mr. Lincoln wore a traveling cap and a shawl, such as men frequently wore at the time instead of an overcoat. He was not in disguise. He was told after he had started for Washington that his life had been threatened, and he consequently changed his route, turning toward Washington at Har risburg, Pa." The history, in an account of Jeffer son Davis' capture, makes no allusion to the much disputed statement that Mr. Davis was endeavoring to escape in diguise. The first illustration rep resents Stonewall Jackson and staff at Bull Run. One picture presents Far ragut, Foote, Porter, emmes and Buchanan as "The Naval Leaders." The presence of Semmes, whom most Northern veterans regard as a pirate, is a strong objection in most criticism. Another picture of "The Military Leaders" gives Grant, Sheridan, Sher man, Lee, Jackson and Johnston. Literary men who have examined the work opine that it is the produc tion of a writer who wanted to be rigidly impartial and leaned over baek- -ward. Of course a fuss is made over this book. But its publication is one of the most hopeful signs of the times. The people will hear both sides after awhile Messenger. Serious Danger Threatens every man, woman or child liv ing in a region of country where lever and ague is prevalent, since the germs of malarial disease are inhaled from the air and are swallowed from the water of such a region. Medicinal safeguard is abso lutely necessary to nullify this danger. As a means of fortifying and acclimating the system so as to be able to resist the malarial poison, Hostetter's Stomach Bit ters is incomparably the best and the most popular. Irregularities of the stomach, liver and bowels encourage malaria; but these are speedily rectified by the Bitters. The functions of digestion and secretion are assisted by its use, and a vigorous as well as regular condition of the system promoted by it. Constitution and phys ique are thus defended against the inroads of malaria by this matchless preventive, which is also a certain and thorough rem edy in the worst cases of intermittent and remittent fevers. When a dwarf is indisposed he can not well be sick long,and even though he should be ill, strange as it may ap pear he is never a tall sick.
