BRYAN MAY 60
To DENVER

DENVER, July 3. Charles
Towne, New York, has arrived
from Lincoln bringing his own
boom for the vice presidency. When
asked if Bryan had promised to
support him Towne avoided d.
rect reply and said Bryan was pre-
pairing draft of several special
planks for the platform which he
will insist should be inserted.
Bryan told Inc he did not want
any ambiguous language in the
PLATFORM" said Towne. He will
not be satisfied with any straddling
of questions.
Bryan is going to see that a
strong anti-injunction plank in
plain terms meeting the demands
of labor goes in.o the platform and
will enforce its adoption If he has

Bryan men declare the resolu-

land as given out by Alton Parker
is a covert attack on the anti-in-

it in a way, they say, that reflects
on the present issue. Mayor Dahl

BY Dorothy Dale.

WASHINGTON, June 25.-The
only woman who mas really had a
finger in the congressional pie this
year does not believe that the right
to help make the laws should be
extended to her sex.
She is Mrs. Thomas P. Gore, wife
of the blind senator from Okla
homa.
Mrs. Gore has always been in a
political atmosphere. She belongs
to the Kay family of Texas office
holders and is more than ''his
eyes," as her husband often calls
her. For, besides reading every
thing on which the senator's work
is based, he depends largely on her
intuition in reading the characters
of the men he deals with. 1t has
been unerring, he says.
Furthermore, Mrs. Gore managed
the literary bureau of his campaign
last fall and is ready to do it again
if, as short term senator from the
newly admitted state, he is nomi.

any of them.
The brother Of the man who was
discharged quit the employ OF
Schade brewery to accept better
position. and Schade blamed the
one who was discharged for in
fluencing his brother to accept a
place where he could better his
condition. That is the only plausi
BILE ground for his anger and his
rash acts against organized labor.
Schade says that he is willing to
arbitrate, but he is bound by a
contract which valves the question
of arbitration. The bottlers have
no arbitration clause in their
agreement and Mr.. Schade knows
it.
All Mr. Schade has to do is to
restore our man to his rightful po-
sition, discharge his nonunion men
and live up to his contract with the
brewery workers. Until he does
there will be no end to the fight.
The brewery workers are well for

Investigating committees who
commended their action and re-
ported against the Schade COM
pany.
Beside. the striking brewery
workers are backed by a strong
local treasury and sustained by the
treasury of one of the strongest in
ternational unions of the world.
Do not assume that we will go
hungry. nor ask for financial aid.
But rest assured that we will fight
Schade until ne evinces a desire
to play fair and respect the just
claims of organized labor. We
also extend fratrnal greetings to
the labor unions and business men
of Spokane for their friendly sup
port and beg to state that we will
stay in this fight to finish. When
Mr.. Schade settles on basis OF
honor and justice he will find no
warmer supporters than the brew

VERSION OF BREWERY WORKERS

Editor, The Fress-The public
has been misinfcrmed and kept in
ignorance concerning the real diff
ference between the brewery work
ers and the Schade Brewery Co.
The general impression has gone
forth that Schade had the right to
hire and fire whom he pleased.
That right would not be questioned
under ordinary circumstances. But
In the discharge of the man which
caused the walkout at the Schade
brewery Mr.. Schade not only vio-
lated his agreement with the
brewery workers and the bottlers
in his employ, but he did it on a
false complaint Gnd resorted to dis
honorable methods to wreak his
spite against competent and
faithful employee and one of the
most respected members of the al
lied trades employed in the brew
cry industry.
We cannot resist the conclusion
that Mr.. Schade's action was
prompted by desire to non
unionize his brewery. There can
be little If any doubt on this point.
Schade claims he discharged the
man because he spoiled some bot
tied beer in the steaming tank. If
such declaration had been true no
strike would nave been ordered.
But the beer that Schade said was
spoiled is the same beer that he
distributed in Spokane as samples
of his choicest products.
Furthermore, Mr.. Schade sepa-
rated, or had separated, the bot
ties from the same batch of beer
on which he based his claim. and
some of the bottles he condemned
as spoiled and some he declared
perfect and in good order But
anyone who knows the business of
steaming beer knows that if the
man had spoiled one bottle he
would have spoiled all of them,
and that If he did not spoil all of
them he would not have spoiled

although the president intimated
that he would appreciate peace, Sy-

Those who claim to be in a po-
sition to know say that the matter
of day labor on further bridge work
will probably not be threshed out
in the council until late this fall
for the reason that it will put Joe
Phillips, president of the council,
on record and lnjure him political
ly in his fight for the nomination
of county commissioner before the
primaries.
1t is stated that Phillips is in
favor of contract work. If he so
declares in open council when the
Lambert resolution eliminating day
labor comes to a vote, his pros
poets of securing a union follow
ing will be nil.
Just now it is stated Phillips is
figuring on strong union support
In the past he has always been
