SLOSSON, General Agent WILL SUPPORT GOMPERS. With but one dissenting vote, the members of the Workingmen's Federa tion of the state of New York, in ses sion at Rochester last week, indorsed the action of Samuel Gompers concern ing the injunction plans at the conven tions of the republican and democratic national conventions and approved his dircular urging the support of the dem ocratic party. The convention voted to wire President Gompers as follows: "We are with you in the fight," and at the same time to contribute $200 to the American Federation of Labor. Jackson, Mich., Square Deal. BIFF! BANG! ! "Any union man," declared an al leged union man in Lincoln the other day, "who votes for Bryan is a tiashedy blank son of a blank blank." There were several union men pres ent who heard it, and as they are go ing to vote for Bryan they resented the insult. They resented it so stren uously that the author of the remark is now laid up for repairs. It all happened in less than a minute, but the results were plenty for the man who made the remark. BRYAN TO RAILROADERS I jGREEN GABLES (Continued From Page One.) personal interest as to the result of the suit; but in the case of indirect contempt the judge gives the order. That is, he makes the law in the case and he is the prosecuting attor ney and he is the judge and the man v.-ould have to be more than human to be law-maker, prosecutor, judge, and do all of it well and fairly and impartially. If there is any place where a man is entitled to a trial by jury it is in the case of indirect contempt. Now, I have been advocating this doctrine of giving a jury in cases of indirect contempt for more than twelve years. I was editor of a pa per twelve years ago when this ques tion came up in the senate and edi torially I Insisted upon the right of the defendant to demand a trial by jury. That was before I was "nom inated for president. In my first platform there was a plank endorsing the bill that passed the senate in June of 1896; and I have helped to insert that same doctrine in three other platforms. The platform . at Denver specifically endorses a meas ure that passed the United States senate in June of 1896, and I want now to Iwell for a moment on that measure. Mr. Taft, in his notification speech, says that our plank in favor of the jury is the most insidious attacks that has, yet been made in all our history on the judiciary of the United States. Now, that is his " charge. What is it that we do? We endorse a bill that passed the United States senate by a vote so unanimous that they did not have a roll call. As a matter of fact, a man who was pres ent told me that only one man voted in the negative and that man was Senator Piatt of Connecticut. And if you wilj examine the record, you will find that during the protracted dis cussion of that bill, there was only one man that raised his voice against it and that was the man whose name I have just given you, Senator Piatt of Connecticut, and the record shows that when just before the final vote was taken, ho moved to postpone consideration that one voted aye and I assume that he did the voting.. It was not a roll call; it was a count and the record shows one voted for postponement and thirty voted against postponement; and while they had no roll call on the final passage' of the bill, there was a roll call soon afterwards and on the same bill, and you will find the names of the men who were present and I will give you the names of some of the men who were present as recorded: John Sherman senator from Ohio; William B. Allison, senator from Iowa; Gen era! Hawley, senator from Connecti cut; senator Hale, of Maine; Senator Morrel, of Vermont, and Senator Cul lom, of Illinois. Now, Mr. Taft says that is the most insidious attack ever made on the judiciary of the United States, and yet, these great repub licans, who were in the hall at the time, not one of them raised his voice against this bill or voted "no" on1 it, or demanded a roll call, and I demand that Mr. Taft shall apologize to these big republicans for slandering thiem at he slandered them in this matter.

Henderson & Hald, lOth Street, Opposite Post Office others of its friends in the senate to do everything honorable and consist ent towards the passage of the bill, always providing that the right of trial by jury, as originally ingrafted in the bill, shall remain absolute with a defendant. May we hope for suc cess at this time? "F. B. SARGENT, "Grand Master Brotherhood Loco motive Firemen. "P. M. ARTHUR, "Grand Chief Brotherhood Loco motive Engineers. E. E. CLARK, "Grand Chief Order Railway Con ductors. "P. MJ-MORRISEY, "Grand Master Brotherhood Rail road Trainmen. "W. V. POWELL, - . "Grand Chief Order Railway Telegraphers." . , That petition, signed by those men, was sent to the senate and presented by Senator Cullom and printed in the record and eight hundred thousand railroad men asked for the passage of the bill we have endorsed and which Judge Taft denounced as an attack up on the judiciary. Now, my friends, if eight hundred thousand railway em ployes believed that they are entitled to the protection of trial by jury, if they believe it, if it is a matter of mo ment to them, and if the democratic party endorses this doctrine, and the republican party refuses to endorse it, if the democratic candidate stands for it and has fought for it for twelve years and the republican candidate not only opposes it but denounces it, as an attack upon the judicial system, in spite of the fact that it had the sup port of the great leaders of the repub lican party in the past, are we not en- titled to the support of the eight hun dred thousand railroad men in secur ing legislation in harmony with that bill? I wanted to present this to you be cause, my friends, petitions do no' amount to much if they simply express an inclination. It is conviction that counts; it is determination that counts and if you are in earnest in this mat ter, how can you better show it than by supporting those who champion your cause and defend your rights? And the democratic party in this cam paign has earned the support of these laboring men whose pleas for ten years have been unheeded by the re publican leaders, whose pleas in the Chicago convention were unheard, but whose demands were accepted and en dorsed at Denver and are defended by the democrats in this campaign. have thought it worth while to take this much time in presenting these differences between the republican platform and ours, between the posi tion of the republican candidate and my position. I thank you for the op portunity that you have given me and for the attention with which you have listened to me. My coming here was not necessary to prove to you my con fidence in your intelligence and in your fidelity. Very few men in this coun try have traveled more than I have. I have slept on the trains night after night for many years and I have had such confidence in the intelligence and moral character of the men who are managing the train that I have slept on the train with as little sense of danger as I have slept at home; and For when he says that this bill is an been interested in having conditions attack upon the judicial system, then i; is a charge that these republicans who were there when this attack was made, these republicans attacked the judicial system, or else they were lacking in intelligence to understand the language of the bill or lacking in fidelity to the judicial system of this country. And you gentlemen will be inter ested in knowing that while this 'bill was being considered, Mr. Cullom. senator from Illinois, received a tele gram and presented that telegram to the senate. It is a matter of record and is printed in full. I will read- it: "Peoria, Illinois, June 8th, 1906 To Senator Cullom, United States Senate: More than eight hundred thousand railroad employes in this country have closely watched 'the course of the "Contempt" bill in this congress and fear now that an ad journment will be had without action on the measure. This mass of citi zens earnestly appeals to you and such that these men who hold our lives in their hands shall not he com peted to work overtime, for, if they 'do, we are in danger as well as they, We are interested in their having not only reasonable hours but reasonable compensation, for only by giving reas onable compensation can the railroads command the intelligence which - is necessary for the discharge of the duties of your position, and as one who travels, as well as one who is in politics, I am interested in seeing that justice is -done to the railroad men.
