Indianapolis, Ind, April 22.-"Mr. Hanna's rushing to the rescue of or ganized labor is. when you come 10 think of it, a somewhat astonishing spectacle said Mir. Parry today, when asked for his opinion as to the attack made upon his labor position by Sena- tor Hanna at the banquet of the Anal gamated Sheet Workers at Columbus.
 But then a good deal can be for given a man who is in the midst of trying campaign, especially when he has recently been defeated by can didate like Tom Johnson.
 ''In the campaign of 1896 the very men that MT. Hanna now eXtols as the able leaders of organized labor issued a circular demanding in the name of all the wealth producers of the coun- try a remonetiZation of silver, and be cause he. as chairman of the national republican committee, did all he could in support of the gold standard he was tabooed and abused worse than any man before or since by these very men whose friendship he now so assiduously- seeks.
 The genesis of Mir. Hanna from an energetic business man with 9 labor record not particularly distinguished for leniency, into a political leader and finally a United States senator, who is the leading spirit if not the foundation of the civic federation, is a remarkable instance of what the political bee will make man do when it gets to buzzing in his bonnet. Who knows where the metamorphosis will end? Is it pCssi- b1e that he has become a convert to all the leading tenets of trades union ism? As a good union man. he may yet think it incumbent upon him to look With an indulgent eye upon BryanisIn, and I am almost inclined to believe it an opportune time to make the sug- gestion that he be made the next run ming mate for MT. Bryan. Bryan and Hanna! How is that for ticket?
 There was very little argument in Hanna's speech. He takes up the pa per which has met the endorsement of 9S per cent of the manufacturers of the country as being a fair exposition of socialistic tendency and what Carrol D. Wright calls the damnable practices of trades unionism and makes what think the country will hold as a poor attempt to answer it. lie reads sec ton from this paper then denies it is true, and turns around after s1ee1 ing at the writer and says in the manner Of the ordinary stump speaker: Boys, isn't that so?' Of course, the boys send up an uproarious shout of applause and approval, then he patted this man on the back, and then that one, called MT. Shafer brother ard otherwise con ducted himself as the presiding genius Of veritable love feast. This method of disposing of one Of the most serious questions probably takes with the kind of men that he was addressing but I cannot help feeling that the rest of the country would have been better satis- fled with more dignified treatment of the labor problem.
 What has My. Hanna to say about fixing wages by artificial methods ? There is the root of the whole matter Ii It is right that one class of work men should have wages fixed arbitra ri ly- then it is only just that the wages Of all classes should be fixed in the same manner.
 Il wish 1t thoroughly understood that l am not against individual workmen getting the highest price for his Ia bor that industrial labor conditions will permit. nor am I against organized
 
 any system that seeks to pry up wages by the use of artificial methods ol force. by strikes, boycotts. joint agree ments, etc.
 T maintain that free industrial cor ditions are essential to the highes progress and that only under such con ditioEs can the I5tboring classes hope t receive the highest reward for thei toll. On account of false ecOnomi ideas preached by the socialistic lead CTS of the laboring masses, I am wei aware that ideas here advanced ar not popular, but nevertheless ii is tru and I believe in standing for the light come what may.
