Against laborinq Men.

While William II. Taft is travelling

tic appeals for the support of laboring
men. his running mate on the Republi-
can ticket. James S. Sherman. is CIV
ing his endorsement to the statement
that labor unions are composed large
ly of anarchists. socialists and dema-
gogues." Mr.. Sherman heard the or
ganized wage worker OF the country
thus denounced by trust magnate
who presided at a meeting where he
spoke. and gave approval OF the senti-
ment expressed. When Mr.. Sherman
appeared recently at Akron. Ohio, the
meeting which he addressed was pre-
sided over by o. C. Barber. president
of the Diamond Match Company. Mr..
Barber introduced Mr.. Sherman to the
audience. In doing so he made use of
the following language, as stenograph-
ically reported:
"One Of the main reasons for The
success of the Diamond Match Com
pany is that its directors HAVE
