Mr. Powderly says that the commence- ment of this trouble dates back to the ap- pointment of s committee of Knights of Labor in the spring of 1887 to watch legisla- tion in the interests of workingmen as it came before the general assembly of Pennsylvania, This committee was appointed by a conven- tion called by Mr, Powderly. He heard no more of the matter until March 2, 1888, when he received a letter from Callaghan stating that the committee neglected its duty and that the writer was reliably informed that members who stood high in the order did not want the committee's reports published. In reply to this Mr. Powderly requested Mr. Callaghan to give his authority for stating that “members who stand high in the order ae not want their reports published,” asking this under the seal of the general master workman, March 7 Mr. Callaghan wrote his reply, telling Mr. Powderly that “he would see him & hell and the order on top of him” before he would give him under the seal of secrecy what was already public property. He also said that Mr. Powderly was derelict in his dnty in not having the committee-report to him, and that at best the committee was a sham. Among other letters Mr. Powderly received one in which Callaghan informed him that he was “the most contemptible, the most hateful and the most villain who ever es da halter.” . Powderly told a reporter that he knows nothing of the present case ny what he has seen in the newspapers, He not know Callaghan. Mr. Powderly thinks that there is no doubt that his name has been used by Cal- laghan’s opponents, but he says he is not re- Phe libelis not against but agains e Lil not rat % himself; for, although he is thoroughly inno- cent in the matter, he has been subjected to —— and —— allegations. Callag- has even gone so far as to write, Mr. Pow- derly says, that he made a fool of Cardinal Gib- bons by lying to him and every one else. Mr. Powderly has not yet been arrested, but yesterday he all of his pay pers bearing upon the case in the hands of his attorueys. THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. C., ¥ GARRISON AGAIN. “Historicus” Maintains That He Has Been Overrated by History. ‘To the Editor of Tax Evawixe Stan: As wy short article started the recent con- troversy, allow me to answer my critica. Stat- ing results briefly, Garrison's advocates admit in effect that he supported the following meas- ures: (1) The abrogation of the national Con- stitution as “‘an agreement with hell,” (2) the secession of the northern states from the Union, (3) the overthrow of the church, (4) the estab- lishment of the doctrine of no force and non- resistance to force, These admissions ought to exclude Garrison from the list of patriots. pa FP of treason and nihilism are not ifications for monumental honors. It is Tenied, however, that his 0; ‘ition to the church involved infidelity, and that his opposi- tion to force in any form implied the destruc- tion of human governments, Having made these charges, I acknowledge my obligation to prove them. To sustain the first I offer, as a preliminary, the statement by hia sons that member of any church. (Garriso: 56.) Next, I tec from Garriso: speech at the second le meeting of the American anti-slavery society, December 3, 1853, reported on e 90 of the “‘proceedings:” “We are infidels, are we? Well, who would be recognized otherwise in a land like this?” In the same speech he boasts that he had been a member of the free thinkers’ conven- tion at Hartford to discuss the inspiration of the Bible, April 16, 1837, Garrison wrote of his “‘religi- “My own are very simple, but they make ous views: havoc of all sects and rites and ordinances of “ priesthood of every name and kind.” (Life, , 140. He believed in the materialization of spirits and that he received communications from de- ceased persons, If he ever prayed the record has escaped my notice, He quoted scripture as glibly asa Mormon elder and passed with | ee people as a pious man and with Denton, ecland and other liberals asa free thinker. It is true, too, that he always insisted that his rationalism was the best religion. But he never used language as other people did. To sustain the charge of nihilistic or no- government ideas I quote from the ‘Writings of Garrison,” published at Boston in 1852 under his own supervision. On e 72, after declar- ing that a foreign army inva ing this country “to commit rapine and destroy life may not be resisted by the people or magistracy” and that no resistance should ‘be offered to domestic troubles of the public peace or of private security,” he continues: “As every human government is upheld by physical strength and its laws are enforced virtually at the point of the bayonet we cannot old any office,” &o, * * “We, therefore, voluntarily exclude our- selves from every legislative and judicial body and repudiate all human politics, worldly honors and stations of authority. If we cannot occupy a seat in the legislature or on the bench, neither can we elect others to act as our substi- tutes in any such capacity. It follows that we cannot sue any man at law,” &c., and so on for quantity. This is nes and simple. It abol- ishes all voting, offices, legislatures, con- Gresses, courts and, in its plain logic, all jails, Penitentiaries aud ‘penal statutes, ‘The sboli- ion of governments implies no money cur- rency, no protection of property rights or of the weak against the strong. This anarchical doctrine was founded upon the proposition that the use of physical force is sinful, even in resisting @ ruffian’s attack on one's wife or daughter. It meant that the oppressed must not resist tyranny; that slavery should La long as any one might choose to act as ve- holder. Itcondemned the American revolu- tion, the defense of liberty in Kansas and the war to preserve the Union, Tue Strap is not large enough to contain the proofs that from 1836 to 1844 Garrison preached nihilism, calling it non-resistance. Von Holst, the great historian, says that Garrison was not “capable of logical thinking,” fell into ‘sense- less abstractions” and desired “to wring the sword from the hands of all governments,” He charges Garrison with trading his heresies in open market and adds: “The abolitionists generally were held re- sponsible for every word uttered by Garrison, who, after all, was only the leader of the small extreme wing.” (pp. 223-25.) Having replied to the denials by Garrison’s newspaper advocates, let me notice afew of their loose statements of matters of tact. Dr. Purvis calls Benjamin Banneker a ‘Garrison- ian abolitionist." As Banneker died in 1806, a year or two after Garrison was born, the doctor will hardly claim accuracy in this assertion. Mr. Crane says that Garrison was “‘twenty- three years of age” in December, 1833, Garrison's sons are right, Mr. Crane has missed by six years. Mr. Crane says that John G. Whittier ‘remained Mr. Garrison’s steadfast friend from that day (1838) until his death.” Now, it is a notorious fact that no abolition- ist was more severe in his rebukes of Garrison's heresies than the Quaker poet. In a letter written August 14, 1837, to the Sisters Grimke Whittier said: “To employ an agent who devotes half his time and talents to the Propagation of ‘no bu- man or no family government’ doctrines in con- nection—intimate connection—with the doc- trines of abolition, is a fraud upon the patrons of the cause. Brother Garrison errs, I think, in this respect. He takes the ‘no church aud no government’ ground, ag, for instance, in his ‘ovidence speech.” (The Grimke Sisters, p. ced A hard rap for a friend! . Crane thinks Lundy and Garrison were good friends, He can correct his error by read- ing “Garrison's Life” by his sons, After the bus- iness connection between the two ceased, Gar- rison alienated Lundy's esteem py making false charges against him, which Lundy strongly revented. After Lundy's death his relatives rejected indignantly Garrison's offer to write his biography. They thought Garri- son would profit by the opportunity to elevate himself by depreqating Lundy. Why, it may be asked, is Garrison, who was regarded in his own day asa crank, believed by so many people nowadays to have been a great reformer? The answer is easy, Owing to the energy and good judgment of his wife his children were well educated, A daughter married Villard, the railroad millionaire, and the sons are literary men, One of them is con- nected with. the largest publishing house in Boston and the others are in New York and connected with the editorial management of the Evening Post, the Nation, the Critic and the Cosmopolitan, Two intimate friends of Gar- rison, the late Sydney Howard Gay and Oliver Johuson, both identified with him, were con- nected, for a quarter of a century or more, with the leading dailies of New York. None of these men have neglected any opportunity to mention Garrison as the founder and great leader of the anti-slavery movement, and this false idea has been wrought in every conceiva- ble way into the thought of the present gencra- tion of newspaper readers. In the convention: Garrison, created by the combined efforts o: half a dozen newspaper and magazine writers, the traitsof the real man have been slurred over or suppressed. But the time is rapidly coming when the labors of historical critics will re-establish the truth and assign to Gar- rison the mipor place he ought to Saag A in the history of reform in the United States, Wealthy descendants may puff bim into temporary notoriety by newspaper notices and cost! books, bat sakes short work of puit balls, Histonicus, ——s Indiana in Favor of Washington.
