When the Laws are bad the People VIII

Sedalia, Mo-, Sept. 15.-william j.
Bryan spoke to nearly $4,000 people at
the fair grounds today, twelve eXcur-
sion trains bringing in visitors from
surrounding towns. In an interview
with n reported before he started for
the grounds, Mr., Bryan said, among
other things:
Those who have suggested the burn
ing of property or the destruction of
life as a means OF settling labor dis
putes do not understand the genius of
our institutions. The American people
are n law-abiding people. When laws
are bad they will change the laws. Lin
coin was right when he said that no
one could better be trusted with the
enforcement Of the laws that those
who toll. The toilers win respect the
rights OF property, and the people as
a whole viii insist that the corpora
lions shall also respect the right to life
and liberty.
"The Injunction has been called into
aid in the suppression Of strikes, and
since the strike is at present the only
weapon of employees, the injunction
becomes the most useful means by
which the employers can force their
own terms on employees. Legislation,
and legislation alone, can remedy this
evil. Arbitration secured by law, the
