Speech to the 17th Convention of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
Author: Eugene V. Debs
Year: 1894
Speech to the 4th Biennial Convention (17th Convention overall) of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen: Harrisburg, PA, Sept. 13, 1894 by Eugene V. Debs Parting shot by the departed editor of Locomotive Firemen's Magazine to the organization of which he served as Secretary-Treasurer for over a decade. Debs criticizes the Brotherhood model, calls local lodge meetings a farce, and pugnaciously defends his fidelity to the B of LF in the face of criticism. Extracted from Journal of Proceedings of the Fourth Biennial Convention (Seventeenth Convention) of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen: Held in the City of Harrisburg, Pa., September 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, and 20, 1894. Terre Haute, IN: Moore & Langen [for the B of LF], 1894; pp. 499-505.
