Theodore Roosevelt: Following mat
ter being widely circulated on handbills
in Kansas and other states:
Governor Roosevelt said in a speech
in Cooper Institute, in New York city
in 1896. The way to get rid of Bryan

stand it up against the wall and shoot
it. to death And in q speech delivered
in Chicago just after the great strike:
so near one, ought to be shot Will the

Both statements are absolute lies,

The use of the injunction as a legal
weapon is discussed by the Chicago
News as follows:
It was inevitable that in the course Of
time the board of trade would turn the
tremendous victory over them. This
turning and this victory happened, IN
fact. in Judge KOhlsaats court yester-
day when a temporary injunction was
granted forbidding one Stone and 9TH
ers from obtaining, selling or distFibut-
Ang the quotations of the board. The re-
Etraining order will cut Off quotations
from many bucket shops, and it is only
necessary TO extend its scope in order
TO cut off all bucket shops
This Is an important victory. But the
, Etrategetical moves by which IL was OBJ
tanned were perfectly simple. Hereto
fore the bucket shop has always got the
injunction restraining the board from
shutting off its quotations. The board
was the defendant, the party against
whom the injunction ran. But now the
board becomes the complainant. It pro-
cures the injunction running against the
who is going to be shut off. If the buck
ct shop moves first the board is shut
off. If the board moves first the bucket
shop is shut on. 1t is q question wheth-
er you are going to get the injunction
yourself. restraining the other fellow, or
whether the other fellow is going to get
one restraining you The advantage de-
IS so obvious that 1t is a wonder the
board has not moved in this direction
before.
In any lawsuit always enjoin the other
side before that side has a chance to en-
