The oourt referred to the use of the "we
don't patronise" list and "'unfair" list of
the labor organisations',' and sld that mem
bers of labor unions wore, 'farced and co
erced into supporting It "Whether Individ
ually willing or unwilling, approv.ng or dis

read eatracts from numbtrs of resolutions
of labor organisations bearing on the Bucki
onse aa tending to show the methods of influencing-
member of unions "and thoa
methods" the court remarked "seem ta be
known as 'perauaalon.' " .
The oustomers of the stove company, the
court -said, had been' Intimidated, brow
beaten and coerced out of their business
relations with their customer "by direct
interference with and boycott of their (the
customer) trade relations-with their own
cuatomera and the public generally."

"From the foregoing It ought to seem
apparent to thoughtful men that the de

"First Bringing about the breach of

per, editorial from the column of the
American Federatlonlat and the labor pre
generally in aupport of his atatement that
there waa a predetermination to violate.
Dlaouolng the actions of th defendants
since the issuance of the Injunction, Justice
Wright ald: ,
"Having in mind what may be In the
foregoing delineation, which. Indicates that
either of the three respondents did before
the iMuance of the injunction deliberately
determine to wilfully violate' It and did
counael other to do the same, let me now
turn to their aaylng and doings since th
declalon of Mr. Justice Gould wa formally
announced, and the order of Injunction
Itself put Into technical operation by giving
or the injunction bond."
, Attitude f Mr. Gompfrl,
,-On December 17, 1907, th opinion of the
court waa filed In the case; the order of
injunction was entered on December 18
the giving of the undertaking required by
It was consummated on December 23, and
I am disposed now to look at the separate
conduct of each respondent with a view of
recording hla individual responsibility In
sarncient detail."
The court quoted at great length the at
titude taken by Mr. Gompera alnc the in
Jirhctlon waa laaued, hi writing, Inter
views and pulhle addresses, and remarked
. u ui wiiioa was aone, an or wnicn waa
published, all of which wa circulated In
wilful dlaobedlence and deliberate violation
of th injunction, and for the purpoae of In
citing and accomplishing th violation gen
erally, and in purauanc of the original
common design of himself and confederate,
te bring about the breach of plaintiff ex
isting contracts wtlh others to deprive
plaintiff of property (the good will of its
business without due procesa of law); re
straining trade among th several states;
restraining commerce among the several
States."
A to Secretary Frank Morrison, tha
court declared that he had full knowledge
of all that waa being done, took part in
the preparation and publication of the
American Federatlonlat of April, 1M, with
complete knowledge of Ita content.
"With knowledge and approval of tha
other writing and speaking hereinbefore
apecified agamt Oompera, ho (Mr. Morri
son) took part In the circulation and dlatri
button In large number of each and every
lMun of the Federation!! containing them,
aa hereinbefore specified agalnat Qompera
and with th am purpoae and Intent,"
JahK MKckrir Coataet.
-Concerning Mitchell, the court pointed to
various acts by him by which he said,
placed hlin within the pale of the law. He
quoted from Mitchell's book "On Organised
Labor. It's Problem. Furposes and Ideals."
certain passages w herein Mitchell declared
that It waa tha duty of all patriotic and
law-abiding citltens to resist or disregard
njunctlons when thvy forbid the doing of a
thing which I lawful. Mitchell waa also
Icrdlted with signing "with full knowledge
the urgent appeal which accompanied the
XI, Mi or more circular letters to th vari
ous secretaries as heretofore specified
against Oomners and Morrison pnd with full
knowledge of their contents, counaelllng
their distribution and with the aame pur
pose and intern."
The court also referred to the presence of
Mitchell In the chair on January St. 190.
at the annual convention of th United
Mine Workers of America, when aresolutlon
waa adopted placing the Bucks Stove and
Range company on the "unfair" llt.
Continuing aa to all three- of the defend
ants, the court said:
"In defense of the charges now at bar.
neither apology nor extenuation le deemed
fit to be embraced; no . claim of unment
contumacy la heard; persisting In contemp-
tuoua violation of the order ;no defense la
offered the: 'That.th Injunction. (1) in
fringed, th constitutional guaranty of free
dom of the press, and "(2) Infringed the con
stitutionality guaranty of freedom . of
peech.'
"The defense do not fill the measure
of the ease; the Injunction waa deigned to
tay the general conspracy of which the
publication of the 'unfair and 'W Don't
rtronlse list were but Incident; the In
junction Interfere with no legitimate right
of criticism or comment that law ha ever
sanctioned and the respondents Intimation
that It does o I a mockery and pretense."
Freedom of the Press.
In reference to the freedom of the press,
the court declare that the constitution no
where conferred the right to apeak, to
print or to publish. "It guarantees," said
he, "only that In so far a the federal
government la concerned Its congress shall
not abridge It and leaves the subject to
the regulation of the several stale where
It belong. Who can be persuaded," asked
the court, continuing, "that the penalising
of false and malllclous libcle upon the In
tegrity of honorable men, or slanders upon
the virtue of chaste women, Is an outrage
upon 'the constitutional rights' of the vll
llflerT" The eourt Inquired If "those of thought
ful and sincere reflections escape the un
harmonlietlon claimed for a right of. utter
license In speech and press and the pun
ishment by law of libels and the mulcting
of slanders. No "right,' " the court added,
"to publish either the libel or the slander
can be sustained, except upon the theory
of a 'right' te do 'wrong."
The court declared " that an elaboration
of his argument with' respect to the free
dom of the press "would usually be quite
agree..ble to my desires," yet, he said,
"these suggestion sound the hollownesa of
the defense and to essay more might savor
of en Inquiry Into the correctness of the
Injunction ordered by Mr. Justice Gould,
a duty already taken up and discharged
by abler hands than mine."
Vital (laestlon Involved.
In dismissing from -further consideration
the contention that the Injunction invaded
the right of .free speech and of the press,
the court held:
"The position of the respondents involves
questions vital to the preservation of social
order, questions which smite the founda
tions of civil government, and upon which
the supremacy of the law over anarchy
barely depend are controversies to be de
termined in tribunals formally constituted
by the law of the, land for that purpose,
of shall each who' fall at odds with an
other, take hla own furious way? Are

courts for litigants; or the view of eaoh
distempered litigant Imposed upon the
courtT" '

execution to the - supremacy of law or

who overstep themand lay about the

in tha opinion-Dl tne court, even wneq
a tribunal had (alien into error, in tn
determination of a causa which It was In
vested with jurisdiction to hear and do.
termlne," th duty and necessity of obedi
ence remained nevertheless tne same.
"And," said the court, "I place the deci
sion of the matter at bar distinctly on
tho proposition that were the order con
fessedly erroneous, yet It must have been
obeyed. (Worden va, Searls, 121, U. 8. 140
It la between the supremacy of law over
the rabble, or Us prostration under th
feet of th disordered throng."
In the case of the defendant, the oourt
declared, the law's command had been to
"standi Hands off, Until Justice for this
matter can be ascertained"
Shield of tha Law.
"Is not law wide enough and Its shield
broad enough." add the eourt, "to avert
from annihilation that which Its tribunals
have taken In hand for the very sake of
decreeing whether It shall not be saved!
Tet everywhere, all over, within the court
and out, utter, rampant Insolent deflanoe
I heralded and proclaimed; unrefined in
sult, coarse affront, vulgar Indignity meas
ures the litigant's conception, of the tri
bunal's due wherein hi causa "till pend."
In conclusion, th court said;
"Eefore the Injunction wa granted thes
men announced that neither they nor the
Arm r lean Federation of Labor would obey
It; they have refused to obey It, and
through the American Federation rf Labor
disobedience ha been successfully achieved
and the law has been made to fall; not
only has the law failed In Its effort to
srreat a widespread wrong, but the Injury
grown more destructive since the injunc
tion than It waa before.
Deflaat. Attltade.
"There I a studied, determined, defiant
conflict precipitated In the light of open
day between the decrees of a tribunal
ordained by the government of the federal
union and of the trlbur.al of another feder
ation grown up In tha land; one or the
ether must succumb, for those who would
unlaw the law are public enemies.
"It Is written In the record that the
labor unlona and their officers meddle into
a member's dally affairs deeper than doe
the law; reatrlct him In matter that th
law. leave free."
In passing aentenc on th defendant
the'eourt ald: . ..
"It would aeem not Inappropriate for
uoh a penalty aa will serve to deter others
from following after such Outlawed ex
amples; will serve physically to impose
obedience even though late; will serve to
vindicate the orderly power of Judicial

th supremacy of law."

any action, a he ha been urged to do
In teiegrama from different labor organi
sation throughout the country, in connec
tion with Judge Wright's decision, has not
been deoided. It was stated at the Whit
House that the president ha not read
the decision and cannot say If ha will tak
any action. There was sn Intimation, how
ever, that some action might be taken if
the president U convinced th sentence is
unjust. The labor erganixatlona urge th

BOYCOTT"

Deelaloa.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. M.-Jsmes M.
Beck of New Tork, counsel for the Buck
Stove company, and who mad the closing
argument for the company, In commenting
on the case, aald:
"This rase ought to be the death knell
of the boycott. If so. It Is the most Im
portant declalon In a labor controversy
since the Debs case of 1RM, from which
It only dlfrers tn the fact that In the Deba
case physical violence waa used to paralyse
Interstate traffic. In the Burks Stove case
the Insidious and far more dangerous
method of a boycott was employed."
William J. Bryan waa much Interested
In today's labor contempt decision. Because
of the prominence he gave to the court
Injunction Issue In the late presidential
campaign an Interview with him on to
day'a decision was sought. Mr Bryan
said:
"It Is not my policy to criticise either
federal courts or their action. The com
mitment to prison of two men so promi
nent In the labor movement as Oompers
and Mitchell Is unique In the annals of
labor movements In this country. Until
I have read the court's opinion and con
sidered the matter carefully,. I can have
nothing to say regarding the case. Criticis
ing a court Is far too serious a matter to
be resorted to when the basts of the criti
cism would be a mere construction."
Van Cleavo Will Net Talk.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. a.-J. W. Van Cleave,
president of th Bucks Stove and Range
company, declined to comment on the ac
tion of the supreme court of the District
of Columbia In aentenclng American Fed
eration of Labor officials to Jail for eon

Thank you for the news," he said, "but
the circumstances are such that I don't
think It would be wise to offer any com

In borrowing money care should always be
taken to know beyond pcradventure that tha terma
of repayment are wt-U within the borrower's finan
cial ability that he is not making himself liable
for greater payments than ho is reasonably able
to make.

that any man who has acceptable security to offer
can reasonably meet, and we have funds to loan
where securities are acceptable. We invite bor
rowers desiring money in any sum to call and con
sult us. Our advantages in the matter of repay
ment are worthy of consideration.
