Career hunters should be driven out, as well as leaders who use labor for political ends. These types are menaces to the advancement of labor.”

    “You must drop all your democracy. You must not believe in “the people.” One class is no better than another. It must be a case of Wisdom, or Truth. Let the working classes be working classes.

    —D.H. (David Herbert)
