Knights of Labor

The Order of Labor (KOL), the first major national labor organization in the United States, was founded in 1869. Named the first leader, Uriah Smith Stephens, Labor Knight Medal, it came from a secret organization designed to protect it. A member of the employer's revenge. Confidentiality also gave the organization an emotional appeal

The original platform part of the organization is ideology. Based on the belief that the profit of all production groups - shopkeepers and farmers and workers - is unified, it proposes a cooperative system of workers to replace capitalism. After Terence V. Powderly was elected chief staff of the state organization in 1879, the organization abandoned its secret and mysterious decoration and made a noble word from that title. As Powderly was reluctant to initiate strikes and to apply other forms of economic pressure to achieve trade union goals, effective control of the organization was transferred to regional leaders . After the raid attack in 1877, the number of members of the Order Team increased, reaching 700,000 in 1886. The Order was a major labor organization in the United States of America.

Since 1886, the impact of KOL has fallen dramatically, 1600 strikes per year (some of which are violent) and fatal Haymarket riots in Chicago. The resulting strong response to trade unionism and the dissatisfaction of many KOL member countries resulted in the end of the union and encouraged the establishment of the American Labor Union (AFL) in December 1886. As an economic merit federation, it represents several national trade unions, each holding its own activities. In contrast, Cavaliers represents a single national alliance craft and unskilled workers.

The decline of the Labor Orbital Union brought the rise of the American labor union founded in 1886 under the guidance of Samuel Gumps. The goal of the Labor Order is legislative reform including an 8 hour working day and child labor law, and the focus of the American Labor Federation is to protect the autonomy and established privileges of individual labor unions. Until June 1933, Congress enacted the State Industry Revitalization Act, an emergency measure taken by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to cope with the economic damage of the Great Depression. The law provides maximum working hours, minimum wage and collective bargaining rights. In May 1935, the Supreme Court attacked it and the "Recovery Act" was immediately replaced by the "Wagner Act" which protects the union rights of workers.

The Labor Organs strongly supported the 8 hour working day in the 1870s and early 1880s and proved to be more effective. In 1869, the Labor Order was founded in 1869, with 700,000 workers, shopkeepers, and farmers. Under the guidance of Terrence V. Powderly, trade unions recommend the use of strikes and advocate rebuilding society in a cooperative way. In 1886, a series of intense strikes by railroad workers hurt the reputation of the union. In May this year a battle took place between the striker and the striker destroyer at McCormick Harvester Plant of McCormick Harvester in Haymarket, Illinois.
