ASKS FOR FAIR Play.


teANAAOA EAMAAs
DENVER, Colo, July 6.-with
the hope Of securing the incOrpora-
ton into the democratic platform of
a plank relating to the issuance Of
writs of injunction by federal judges
which will come nearer to their de-
sires than the plank adopted at Chi
cago, Samuel Gompers, president OF
the American Federation of Labor,
John Mitchell, James Duncan and
other members of the executive conn
Gil of the federation, arrived today.
Mr.. Gompers said he wanted 1t
known that the representatives of
labor are not here for any special
privileges in the matter of issuance
OF injunctions In labor disputes, but
that all they wanted was equality be-
fore the law. There is no warrant
of law whatever" declared Mr.. Com
pers, for issuance Of the Injunc-
lions against which we protest. We
are opposed to any injunction that
does not apply to any other citizen
in any walk of life"
Mr.. Gompers stated that the plank
submitted to the Chicago convention
would again be offered, but in a
modified form. He would not dis
cuss the nature of the change which
1t is proposed to be made.
Mr.. Gompers took occasion to deny
certain statements which he said had
been sent out from Denver to the eff
feet that the American Federation
of Labor was opposed to Mr.. Bryan.
1T is not So" he declared, 1--WE
have a very high regard for Mr.. Bry-
an. We are not here for or against
any man, but in behalf of labor's
needs"

all routes, from all directions and
by regular and special trains. One
route reports % trains and all the
other lines are equally choked with
the tide of travel. The local COM
mittee started an elaborate plan of
reception, with relays of brass bands

Vice Presidential Gossip.
The vice presidential situation has
undergone a change during the day
owing to certain very definite subter-
ranean information from Lincoln to
the effect that Mr.. Bryan feels that 1t
would be wise to defer any definite
action as to the second place on the
ticket until first place has been fully
disposed Of This comes in such a
direct way that it would doubtless
have the effect of postponing any eau
Gus action by the New York or other
delegations favorable to any particu-
lar candidate. Meantime the various
boomlets are undergoing varying for
tunes. The Gray forces are as in
sistent as ever that Judge Gray will
not take second place, while the Bry-
an forces continue to talk of the
availability of Gray, Mitchell or
Towne. The arrival of Mitchell with
Gompers and other leading lights of
the labor world, is expected to give
an impetus to the Mitchell movement.

Gompers in shaping the labor planks.

what would bs thought of a man who
should propose that, because water
had risen over dam and caused some
destruction below, the dam should
be cut down or removed7 That is the
democratic idea of tariff revision
We have had business troubles in the

banking, having no sort Of connection
with the tariff and these troubles have
led to financial strinenoy and loss OF

industries have been built up and es-

due regard for the protection of Amer.

Us to inquire why II is that Grants

The cost would be trifling and our
farmers and orohsrdists would be more

be displayed. Thousands of people
are looking for homes and this sectios

very little effort would add tenfold
