Knights of Labor Close Convention Amid Harmony and Unity
The Knights of Labor in Cleveland closed a session focusing on Home club issues and filling two executive board vacancies. Key Powderly allies Buchanan and Aylworth were named, with Gibson elected earlier, as the movement promotes cooperation with trades unions while preserving separate organizations. A circular urged unity and wage or hours negotiations, signaling a cautious push toward centralized action with ongoing internal reconciliation. The executive board backed Home club influence by a 7-3-1 vote, and the body adjourned sine die, to reconvene later in Richmond and remain briefly in the city for postconvention planning.
